A place to talk about fitness and health on Farcaster.

In my attempt to go 10 reps with 120kg (122.8kg here), i have once again failed. Advice? Thoughts? Opinion? Would love to hear.

Nothing can fully prepare the mind for failure. Nobody likes to fail, it’s draining, both physically and mentally. Even heard someone say “it’s too heavy for him” in the background 😪

I didn’t talk all through after this, just completed my routine and moved on, just another day huh.

But i remember, there was once a time where i couldn’t go 10 reps with 100kg, and now i can go 15 reps clean, maybe i did something wrong? Maybe i was meant to fail this time so i can think back? 
(These were the many thoughts going through my mind)

I will try again on Monday. Lightweight baby!!!

Another failed attempt on getting to 10 reps with 120kg.

Made better progress than the last one of 5 reps, i went 6 reps on this.

Considering increasing my bench to 3 times a week. Might even help break my PR.
A bench x squat day would be peak powerlifting.

Lol
The picture of that guy behind is even more scary 😄

If you can do 12 @ 110kg, try to do 8 @ 115 then 10 then 12. 
When you can “easily” do 12 @ 115, try again with 120.

I can go 15 reps with 100kg ez. Tried 20 reps a couple times.

110kg for 8-12 reps, i’m sure i could go more.

I just wonder why 120kg gets me stuck even when it’s not my PR😅

what was your progression to 10 reps? how much do you press 12 reps? and 8 reps?

Advice? 

1. You're not centered on the bench 
2. You're not using leg drive
3. Your shoulders are not pinned 
4. Your wrists are bent backwards (should be directly under) 
5. Your left side is weaker - keep your elbows tucked (DO NOT LET THEM FLARE OUT)
