5/3/1 attempt no.2

i've never seen anyone use T bar at my gym, looks like an exercise where you use a lot of weight though. how much do you t bar row compared to barbell row?

Its not a proper t bar, we just put the barbell in a corner and get on of those V handle thingys. Its similar to a t bar. And about weight, I was doing 120kg today strict for 6 reps. It easier than barbell rows.

One time something embarassing happend though. I saw a small chinese guy doing like 180kg for reps, but they weren't real reps, his friend helped him get if off the ground, and then was even helping him do the reps. I felt like a proper SummerSofas and said let me try, thinking I could do it easily. I couldn't even get it off the ground

on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being the weakest male in the gym, 5 being the average dude working out, and 10 being the man beast, where do you come at your place?

Never underestimate the skinny Chinese guy.

whats your 1RM OHP and 1RM PP brother?i'm trying to get a feel for the ratio

Mine is bad. I'm crap at push pressing. 92.5kg and 100kg.

i think that you, like me have a fairly high bench compared to squat. i'd say that lower body strength isn't quite on par with upper body and therefore leg drive isn't adding as much as it does for some lifters

We can be like Big Z, strict press all the weights out while everyone else struggles to push press them

haha, or at my gym more like strict press all the weights that most guys struggle to squat

I saw noobs at my gym squatting between 40 - 50kg for workset.... its a tragedy

Fail. Can't see pic.
