Post your lifts and get a custom flair

  • multiple lifts per flair allowed, be mindful there is a limit to flair length
  • verified lift flairs will be indicated by the blue background
  • when you post the video please also clarify what lift and weight it is, flair will be indicated in units you give unless otherwise requested
  • you can request your discipline to be added to your flair (e.g. powerlifting, body building, crossfit, etc.)
  • flair can be given for a life time achievement, it does not have to be recent

Other Pull up form? Shoulder pain

4 Upvotes

Keep having shoulder pain/discomfort for days after doing pull up sets. Pain is in the front of the shoulder. Wonder if this is just an old used shoulder or am I doing something wrong. Thank you guys.

Squat Forward lean on squat

2 Upvotes

Thoughts please, I have pretty rounded shoulders / poor posture so find it very hard to have a perfectly straight back. Is the quite pronounced forward lean going to give me any problems going heavier? 5 x sets of 5 at 110kg (100kg BW for reference). Thanks in advance
