Aidan's Training Log (just weak strongman) - Page 87

Impressive lowerbody numbers. Disappointing bench though, even at that weight. Amazing what a solid bench does for upperbody aesthetics. Some DYELs have come along in this forum and they always looked solid when benching 120k+. Garlic Yum and EV comes to mind.

Yah, familiar story. Think basically all our boys need to go up a class, temporarily at least, but dem aesthetics too important.

A bit odd. The first rep was clean but I panicked and didn't pause, went to repeat it and ****ed up touching way too high. Wanted to repeat it with a pause, then yoloed 125. Got it about 3" off the chest but no juice.

How awesome is it to have people cheering you on like that? That's got to add a few kilos to the ole PRs

hahahah I gotta sneak some alcohol into my gym. I'm already eating the desserts the single mom's make anyway.

125 is there considering you could've doubled that. nice work. between your gains and weasel's, I'm expecting to bench 365 with a pause in April

Pretty ****ing awesome, the atmosphere adds a lot. It's great when everyone starts feeding off the energy, two big deadlift PRs and a bench PR were set in addition to my own this session. Good times are great, and **** sessions aren't so bad as a result. I highly recommend it.

Awesome work; appreciated the shout out. You probably bench more than me now, for whatever that's worth

Your tip for breaking in the Inzer was spot on. It's so much more comfortable. I've told like 10 people about it for theirs.

Trying to understand the towel press. Is the idea just to decrease ROM? In your program would you towel press the same weight as you'd slingshot?

Ya towel press is just less rom and you can use more weight. Not sure on percentages cause some people will get a lot more out of a sling shot than with towel presses. Some people will be about the same though. I think I could towel press more than I could sling shot
