Nice squat. You’re pretty close to two biscuits now. Wasn’t too long ago that I squatted 100kg and it felt pretty bad ass at the time.

Probably descend bit faster in the bottom third and get more bounce out the hole. Was discussed in the squat form check I posted

They look pretty OK. You’d probably benefit from a bit extra ab and lower back work. Try to avoid cranking your head back, although I’m getting the impression that something you do more with heavier weight so just something to be aware of more than anything. Also push your knees out hard, just to encourage a more vertical shin.

Will do

Yeah, usually I focus on keeping my head down but it gets hard with a heavier set

Is that per hand?

I wish. Total weight of both dumbbells

Lol for a second there i was really confused…
How tf is he pressing 30kg both arms with a barbell and repping the 30kg on seated presses. Also good job on the pr

In my defense, FSL work is super light - like 60-70% of a 1RM - but yeah, that would be strange. :laughing:

Cheers man
