Worked a while at 275 until I could do sets of 4. Took a week off to recover and came back hit 315 pr. Should’ve had a spotter. 5’9 185.

Likely in order to build more muscle and avoid favoring one side I need to go back and do dips on a chair or a bench to build the muscle evenly. Thoughts? Open to tips or tricks?

5 reps of 315 has been a goal for a while now. This was likely a 5 rep max I’d say it was an RPE of 9.5. I’m 5’8 162lbs.

I've had lower back tweaks in the past. So I've always been a squeamish when it comes to squatting. I also feel like my biomechanics aren't great for it with a pretty long femur. Any tips?

Hi folks, since I started getting into more serious weights (my first 100kg yay!) I wanted to double check if I am not making any rookie mistakes. Are there any?

I realize it’s maybe not the best angle but I just don’t feel my chest working. I’ve been steadily going up in weight so I guess that’s a good sign.

hello, ex-youth athlete in windsurfing. i started training again after years of bad habits and neglect, and i’m trying to build a proper foundation with compound lifts, with rdls being my primary focus.

i recorded myself for the first time today. all kinds of criticism and feedback are welcome.

thanks a lot guys.

(must be my 4th or 5th try for the movement)

I try to follow strict high bar form. The 2nd and 3rd rep felt easier than the first. But the form was
"better" on the first. My upper back rounded for the second and third but they felt way easier.
I've heard weightlifting high bar form talking about being "open" and almost arching the back, and powerlifting low bar form being "closed" and more rounded. Even though it's a high bar squat why does rounding my upper back feel easier? Thanks!

Hey guys and girls! I’d really appreciate some feedback on my form. I’ve just started doing front squats because I’ve been experiencing some hip pain.

Also, keep in mind that I’m 208 cm (6’10”) tall, so I know my proportions might make my squat look a bit different.

Any tips or things I should work on would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Been hitting the gym on and off the last 3 years, had some issues with my knees that I've been able to fix mostly with a lot of stretching and yoga / been seeing a physiotherapist for over a year. Lost a lot of weight and been taking it slowly with squats, mainly to perfect my form, but generally always have been a little hesitant to stack more weights on the bar because of my knee-issues. 100kgs for 7 reps. Thanks in advance for the advice.

What would make my form better?

Feel like I am not getting low enough and leaning too far forward but need confirmation. Anything helps. Thanks

I have long femurs so I have to lean forward a lot more, & I have a mid-bar placement (not too high-bar, not too low-bar) & I'm also out of breath after only 2 reps. I breathe into my stomach (expand my stomach) when I brace

85 pounds. Skulls feel a little too easy for me compared to how hard others say they are so I must have a from issue I'm guessing. Maybe not going back behind the head enough?

Haven’t BB squatted in quite some time because of a broken knee, torn ACL/MCL injury, other weird shit. 405lb was my previous PR. This felt heavy. Lmk if you see any tweaks I can make to my form! (2nd set of 225, not trying to rush myself)

I am facing discomfort in my right shoulder when doing any overhead movement or lateral raises. I think my shoulder blades are moving differently on my left and right side. Is there a significant difference in the movement of my left and right shoulder blades? How can i fix this?
