Primary deadlift week 2
210kg x1 top set @ 5-6 155kg 3x5 back off sets @ 4-5 Currently working on keeping my hips higher and making the deadlift less squatty, as my hips were shooting up for a long time, paused deadlifts are helping me a ton and they look way better already. Everything felt light today, great session
Primary deadlift week 2
Looked really easy! Well done...What is the purpose of the head movement at the top?
@Daniel Gutierrez thanks for your reply!
Accessory work
In the classroom programming masterclass, you mentioned to hit each muscle twice per week with the accessories ...In the 4day a week program, these lifts , f.e. Belt Squats, are given only once per week. Is this, because Quads are already worked by Squats so they get only day of Belt Squats,where as Curls are programmed twice per week?

Failed 140kg bench press - still a small 130kg rpe win
Hey guys, I got fired up this evening for 140kg bench press, so I tried it today instead of tomorrow - tomorrow I’ll do the rest of the session, since the gym was closing soon. Here are the videos for the last ramp-up set of 130kg (it is 3 plates in my gym, since the bar is 10kg), it didn’t go as smooth as I expected, so it really got me thinking about trying 140kg, but I decided to try it anyways. I got pinned much worse by 135kg 4 months ago, so I definitely made some progress, I think I’ll have it in 3 months. Feel free to critique the form, my biggest focus for now is finding the groove for proper leg drive.

This is how it feels good for me
Squats and Deadlifts, both 132.5kg top sets - medium intensity session
I'm transitioning into the four day program. I'm keen to hear any advice or criticism. Thanks.

Hey Zane, Squats looking pretty good! Regarding depth, maybe you can even stay a bit higher. Might enable you to use more weight without loosing anything. Is it possibe for you to set the hooks one hole higher? Looks like you have to go deep to get under the bar in the rack. One question on the DL: Are your arms fully straight, when lifting the bar of the floor? And because the Bar is higher on your thighs, when standing, it seems that the DL is more arkward for you than the Squat. Ever tried Sumo?
@Zane Madden you are welcome! Might try loose arms on the DL (arms loose like ropes) and if that does not help, flex triceps before the start. On Squats, it would be really great if you can put the hooks higher, as high as possible while being able to lift the bar without problems out of the rack. If on hole higher is too much, maybe you can put the hooks one hole higher but have a thin Board under your feet.
Some pause deadlift and pause bench from today
So the pause bench were two reps for 70 kg at about an RPE6 and the pause deadlifts were the last set of three sets of five at 100 kg for an RPE6 as well. I ran the Friday on the four-day split for the first time today so I haven't managed to write it down fully but on Monday I'll write down the full workout, weight, and reps. Hope everyone's well. Feel free to critique the hell out of my form please. I've never had anyone tell me how to lift properly; I just watch stuff on Youtube

What is your weakness on DL? Bar drifts towards you, may be you can try how it feels if the bar is closer to your shins at the start?
