You guys going to end up in the wheelchair before you get old. Why push so hard. Being in shape not good enough?
Thanks shawpaw, i am trying hard but it's painful. Incline is one of my favorite chest exercises, having that upper chest makes you look beastly. Bro 140's and 415 bench!!! That's really impressive! I never went higher than 315 on flat bench but I'd rep it 6-8 times. Now like snake I can't do bench with the bar anymore I have to do Dumbbells. The way the bar locks your arms into position and doesn't allow for natural motion just messes my elbow up. Yeah I agree about repetition vs a single push, I'd never tried single rep max.....I should have before I got all messed up, maybe in the future.
Did back today, slowly getting back into deadlifting...forgot how hard that was haha dellyboy I know a lot people that love deadlifting, for me I like it but I am not in love with it. I just use deadlift as another exercise to add to the back day repertoire.

Yeah snake, that straight bar is a shoulder and elbow killer!! I'm dumbbells only (straight bar once in a while). I've heard a lot of good things about those fat grips but I've also heard they can cause arthritis. Who knows, everything is bad for you nowadays. Glad you were able to figure a way around the thumb pain.
Buffy, I did try some sumos last week and they are easier but the stance feels so awkward to me. I did manage 365lbs four times with no straps over/under grip. I could have done more but I'm taking it slow. I just don't like straps because I want to challenge my grip strength at the same time. I know grip is the weak link but I still don't like straps...maybe if I get into the 500 range I'll strap. I like farmer carries to help increase grip strength too. Do you compete Buffy?
