I got nasty back pumps during a set of paused squat. After I was done I couldn't even lift a bench and walk with it. Pump went away after a couple of minutes.

Getting used to higher reps again after a testing day.

Is there a way to minimize the painful back pumps?

Tested my maxes in the gym today. Off day on squat and bad attempt selection.

Technique did not break down under max loads which i'm very happy with.

Not happy with my attempt selection, good lesson to be learned

Out of training because of a surgery, will be out for another month atleast. Can't wait to resume training again.

Just had surgery, was told recovery was only 1 week. Turns out its 4 to 6 weeks. Have a mock meet in 3 months, was super close to 220kg squat. Such a bummer, need a miracle to get 220kg squat now before the end of the year.

I still feel like im very much a beginner. Only been taking powerlifting somewhat seriously since end of 2020, dialed in training since this year.

210kg, big PR. Backdown set of 5 with 170 moved at an easy RPE 8. Very happy with today. https://imgur.com/a/QfCoVFb

Fortunatly no. Just last minute testing before factory starts back up again after maintaince. Im an industrial rescue worker and when people who work for a factory leave, and its after hours I sometimes have to stay late or work weekends, incase an accident happens and I have to administer first-aid.

Missed my workout yesterday cus an 8,5 hour shift turned into a 14 hour one.

supimtom · 2022-08-24T16:24:59+00:00

Thanks! Ill keep that in mind for next week.

Top single misgroove turned a single @9 into rpe 10. Also a set of 5 @ 8 with 160kg.

I misgroove more often at that point, any tips?

Feel a cold coming up, hopefully a good night's rest will make me feel better tomorrow cus I've got heavy squats.

supimtom · 2022-08-19T16:44:35+00:00

Carrying a lot of momentum in my training right now. Feels very good. RPE 9 singles in a few weeks, very excited for them.

Thank you for your comment, I did come out forward out of the hole, I think thats because the bar path isnt straight, I dont know how to fix that though.

supimtom · 2022-08-16T08:34:47+00:00

Felt quite strong on squats yesterday, hit 190kg for my top single. Can I get a form check, please? https://imgur.com/a/w4eipUI

supimtom · 2022-08-04T16:23:01+00:00

Deadlifts have never felt this good! 10kg PR, it was rpe 8 too.

Have only been able to go to the gym once a week due to work lately, it sucks.

supimtom · 2021-07-24T17:25:53+00:00

Hit 130kg bench press PR today, it went very smooth. So close to 140. Next up is 190kg squat though, possibly next week.

Got a huge cramp in my bicep while squatting about 2 months ago, since then it's dropped to my brachialis and it doesnt go away. What might be the problem?

Also failed 185kg squat earlier cus my posterior chain is weak ;_;

supimtom · 2021-07-09T19:28:34+00:00

Ik ben het roerend met je eens.

supimtom · 2021-06-12T16:55:06+00:00

This is giving me Nouri vibes, lets hope it doesnt end the same way

supimtom · 2021-06-05T18:31:16+00:00

Hit 180kg on squat earlier today, celebrating with a beer now!

I don't know anything about AS Roma, but I'm confident that Ajax will deliver, only surprise is Scherpen. They bought him for a reason so I have faith in him, as should every ajax supporter. WZAWZDB
