Incline press narrow grip 3@160kg, Squat 3@240kg

Two days ago did 3 sets of 3@150kg incline, 3x 3@240 Squat. So today was pretty much an easy day, but felt go so I went up to a set of 3@160 Incline press, and 3@240 again on Squat. That has become a casual weight for Squat which is a good thing. Now I could have easily gone for a PR on Incline but nobody reliable to spot.

hey there again, was wondering if you follow a particular program or if you gave training log somewhere?Or do you go for a record each session? Thanks again

[chezkenny]

@xl507 No log. The basics of my program is pretty simple. I go for a couple dynamic sessions then a heavy one. One day rest and start over.

I feel cheated, you never maxed out...

[chezkenny]

@dt76028 haha yeah I know... Sorry to let you down bro! :) Now I train at this gym and they don't even have a Squat cage... I felt good on incline tonight too, but no spot either... very frustrating. Hopefully sometimes next week!

hello there, was wondering when did you started to train squats with a belt? Have you always trained with it? Cheers

[chezkenny]

@xl507 well I think everytime you Squat a Max weight or near a max it's better to use a belt. Especially with a full breath of air in the stomach and pushing the belly against the belt while holding it. It makes everything more stable and safer. Especially if you can Squat around 2x bodyweight. I start using the belt at 200-240kg but sometimes even on my speed sets, depending on how the lower back feels.

@chezkenny I know what thats like. My gym doesn't have a squat cage or dumbbells past 100lbs...

@ptarleton I didn't know this brand, just looked it up. I noticed nike and reebok had weightlifting shoes as well. The nike looks great, but 240 bucks.. haha...

@chezkenny In comparison to Adidas, the Do-Wins are a wider shoe. I think the heel is relatively high though.
