I do this lift, max is 235lbs for a single. This kind of makes me aroused, lmao. That is strong af!
16
Casually pressing 100kg for reps. That's some strong shoulders.
15
Wait... You guys are still on lockdown? Really? Is this America then?
Plus: Great lift, really great form; love the butt-contraction especially...

Hey, no I'm in Northern Ireland but the gyms have only been open a few weeks and I took a while easing back into it once they did.
15
wow what a beast, could we have some stats bro, height and weight?
11
6'3" and weight fluctuates between 120kg and 122kg.
Been training consistently for 16 years now with a few lay offs due to surgery etc but I'm very consistent overall and have been for years.
14
damn thats sick bro. what do you train for?
10
I used to train for PLing but hernias put an end to that. Now it's just for fun with size and strength. Nothing in particular. It's just my hobby.

I have a problem arching my lower back in, so my upper chest tilts back slightly, possibly due to bilateral shoulder surgery that tightened my ligaments. Your lower back form looks really good from my perspective. Do you do a lot or any mobility work? Thanks.

Hey, in short no. I guess my only advice is to tighten the abs and the glutes.
I had triple genius repair 5 years ago so I too have to be very careful with all movements. I still have a tiny hernia that appeared during the recovery period.
In terms of mobility work I don't but I absolutely should.

I’m working with a sciatica last 2 years and shoulder repairs on both. Recently I’ve been focusing on keeping my core in the hollow body position and tilting my chin up like a pez dispenser to clear the bar instead of tucking my chin back to clear the bar. Thanks.

You are Superdad

I can’t get over 42,5 kg :(( great job!
5
Amazing! do you have any tips for keeping your back from arching? these move straight up and down.
5
I love military pressing but I cannot stop myself arching my lower back and ot really really aggravates my discomfort that I have
5
Are you bringing it down to your clavicle?
2
Yeh its toward lockout it pronounces where I struggle a little bit. Just like my hips rotate forward all the time
3
I would say move your head back slightly and forward as the bar passes prevents leaning back.
Tight abs and glutes would help a lot too.
Also if you lean back a little from time to time it's fine. Nobody is perfect!

Bravo, strict form; tight core. I'm impressed.
5
Damn beautiful form!

Thanks!
