Those of you that have done just-the-bar bench reps, do you use the same cadence as normal bench, or do you crank out the reps as fast as possible. I just did 2 sets of 50 as fast as possible and I got like a cardio buzz going on. I'm winded as ****
So fast my biceps burn.
Bench.
135x10
205x2x3
225x1
185x3x5
135x3x10
Barx55
No rhyme or reason.

might try that 50 rep bar challenge after my working sets tomorrow. I'll record it if I do.
For benching what are some cues for bar path? I can't seem to get the bar to have that arc'ing triangle path. I'll usually end up pressing in a straight line.

rep the bar 500x without racking it. you can pause in lockout but don't rack it. 50x is nothing.

Hahah 500 makes way more sense than 50. Now the challenge seems more daunting! Not even sure if I can knock out more than 50 tbh lol.

repped appreciate the feedback. I will wait until black friday. That will be perfect timing. Soccer season still on going so no time to really hit squats like i want to since i play 3 times a week and my legs are forever tired
this man knows
My romaleos are a 10.5. I am for the most part an 11 (roshe = 11, UB 2.0 = 11, Jordan = 10.5). They fit tight but not too tight. People say they stretch a little after break in too

I think they do, the break in period is too tough for me to go .5 down.

I still don't understand the difference between squatting with plates or flat block under your heels. And romaloes..other than them keeping your feet strapped in.

Honestly there isnt. Only if your feet is going to be static.
- 23,082

Do that with shoes or without

I don't get what you are asking?
Do squats in shoes with weight under underneath? That if you have ankle mobility issues.
Honestly, some of my oly brothers squat bare foot. Then again, their flexibility is insane.

I wouldn't want to be standing on a little plate with any significant amount of weight on my back.

So we can be clear, we are talking about having the weight under the heels...Like this?

Why not? If you don't have the shoes or the mobility, what would be the next option?

I've always wonder, what builds muscle more...Front Squats or Back Squats?
Here's a video with good information, however this is just merely opinions.

Even with safety's I can't imagine doing it. The things that can go wrong if your heel slips isn't worth the risk.
Plenty of people squat in flat sole'd shoes or barefoot. Best option is to just build on your mobility and work on form.

I figured it was the safety hazard issue.

Managed to speak to the manager and got them to swap out those headphones. Got a new pair

Fixing the actual problem of lacking the mobility to hit depth, people that put plates under their feet are not to be taken serious under any circumstance.

@ not taken seriously...
