This was my top single today. Very slow lift. Not recommended to lift this slowly when you train for power! :) This was 20kg under my PR in the squat. Did not feel powerful today. Had no steam at the top of the lift, probably from the heavy deadlifts yesterday.

  • Oh yeah.. personal training is big here, but the clients are mostly rich elderly people that expect to get everything for nothing. Not my idea of a great job.

  • Well I normally squat with feet turned out slightly and deadlift with feet facing forwards but did not know if it is ok to do this. i am gonna have a go at the trap bar squat lift in this training cycle but I myself have been around 24% bodyfat recently and feel v self concious when personal training ppl. now I want to maintain it lower if I can but it may creep up again if I detect that I'm not as strong lol. I guess personal training is not that big in your area of Norway then?

  • Yes, I need to eat a shitload of food, and it is a real pain in the ass!

  • I am a certified PT too, but I have left that business. I am lifting only to get strong, period. :) For squats and deadlifts. Just change up things once in a while, try different stuff, and you will see what suits you the most. For squats I like narrow stance, high bar, close grip, and for deads I prefer sumo. There are so many variations. Try, and see what you like the most.

  • Fair enough being a bulk builder / power lifter is fine if thats what u train for. Cause I work as a personal trainer 1:1 I cant allow myself to put on too much of a gut or ppl would just think I'm fat! You must eat a hell of a lot of calories to maintain that strength / bodyweight. BTW how do you recommend a stance for squats / deadlifts, i.e how much distance apart and toe flair? peace!

  • I do not give shit about looks. For me it is all strength.
