Fuck him, that’s what he gets for not using the safety bars

Yesterday, banged out decline on the bench.


Really feeling Dat good pain.

 

[sickmint79]

failed a squat today for the first time, thankfully my gym got a new rack which does have safety bars. this is a rarity it seems in thailand. i was both trying to pause a little more on the bottom as well has a little more forward lean as i'm usually not giving much on a squat at all and expect that to help with my shitty form half reps. def not an amount of weight i'd expect to ever fail on giving use before, but too many changes and who knows... bad bracing, sloppy form, not respecting the weight, i dunno. but did fail. did not have enough time to choose how to fail either, like throw the weight back... just kind of started failing forward at the top and nowhere to go but forward and down. while on the way something in my lower back def felt tweaked. a bit shell shocked and went to sit for a while. hour+ later now, back is tender but my normal not all that flexible movements don't seem to trigger anything. randomly on my scoot i did experience some discomfort/shooting pain but pretty briefly. i figure maybe no muay thai this week/certainly tomorrow, and waiting to load my back with anything for a week, and hopefully back to normal. that or i'm going to be trying to get out of bed tomorrow and finding my back is fucking pissed off

Decline today, it's been a bench rotation.

Then incline and yes then decline again

Why are you benching on the Smith, why not free weights on a barbell?

You been lifting a lot longer then me so I have to ask. Do you think the decline actually does anything, if so what?
I have yet to meet a ripped/bigger dude in the gym that believes the decline does anything. In all honesty, I can go crazy on a decline and lift my highest weight on there. But I refuse to hit decline unless its a decline machine and even then its every 4-6 weeks. I think a lot of my shoulder issues came via the decline

decline is good for injuring shoulders, nothing more

I'm not surprised at all.

Light decline builds lower chest, I feel it in my delts too.

I've basically changed up my routine because my shoulder is still forked.

Personally, I do feel the benefits on the decline. My days of goin heavy are in the past so for Me, lighter weight, changing the routine ( flat / incline / decline)

Is workin for Me.

Obviously that don't mean it works for everyone.

I like doing all 3. : thats just me. Decline Flat and Incline. I can do more on decline too. I feel like decline gives a wicked pump vs other 2 but again I just like all 3.

my thai gym got a new flat bench, and it kinda sucks. i'm 6'2" so my arm dimensions are reasonably long, and the bar is just too high. it's an inch higher than i'd like, but can deal with, for people shorter than me or the average thai person though? i have no idea why the equipment is designed this way.
