  1. There is no way I would have gone for that 5th rep. That shit was U.G.L.Y! Lol
  2. If you need an emoji to cover belly, perhaps it’s time to start improving said belly?
  3. Nice dancing bro :grin:

You need to do some SERIOUS work on your abs and midsection stability. You’re shaking like a goddamn leaf when the bar is locked out from rep two onwards. Not to mention your arching your lower back way too much for my liking.

Dude, you’re strong enough for your age. You need to pay serious attention to diet and technique before you get hurt. Just because you can move a weight doesn’t mean you should.

I don’t want you to feel like we’re all piling on here, Hugh, and you know I love you, but honestly it freaks me out how heavy you are!

You’re a strong kid and you know what you’re doing in the weights room which is great for someone your age, but god damn you are carrying a lot of fat.

I get that being cover-model shredded isn’t everyone’s top priority, but you are going to be in your 20s before you know it and you do NOT want to hit your prime ass-getting years obese.
