 addicted to bench press, needs help Member 80, 1384 posts SQ 175, BP 160, DL 240575.0 kgs @ 113kgs UnEq | thanks ed its the last of the vids though as i feel they may be taken as trying to show off even though im no were near a good lifter but have improved alot,and they defo arent posted to show of,i myself like to see vids of anyone lifting at any level i think its cool to see and get feedback from the pros and begginers im 44y old the last time i did anything cool was win a AAA award 5* there was only me in the school at 14ys old, won it,out of 1500 pupils, i ran 100m in 11.6sec,besides other stuff,what im trying to say is that ive found something that i may be good at,and i havent that many years left to improve it,but this has got to be the hardest sport out there in terms of the pounding your body gets,so anyone who can stick at it no matter what there level has balls,with a bit of luck ill stick it out and suprise myself at the end of the day its your own personal battle thats what im loving about p,lifting | ||

 Old Age Presser Member 75, 7740 posts SQ 0, BP 200, DL 200400.0 kgs @ 105kgs Eq | Tom, the AAA award shows natural athletic ability which you just haven't properly utilised in the meantime. Winning a sprinting award means you have a fantastic base for powerlifting, because both sports are based on explosive power and the sprinting award suggests you are genetically predisposed to powerlifting. I was 47 when I started competing, by the way, so 44 is nothing. But you have to train smarter rather than harder once you get over 40. You take longer to recover between training sessions, which increases the likelihood of injury. And you take longer to recover from injuries... Unlikely, but I would really like to give you a couple of training sessions in the next month, just to make sure your technique is right and your efforts are being properly directed. Or can you find a powerlifting coach within travelling distance just to have a couple of sessions with? If you're ever in the Liverpool area, give me a shout. And if my work takes me anywhere near Darlington, I'll contact you. Keep up the good work. | ||

 Невыносимо Высокомерный (RIP) Member 11, 965 posts SQ 190, BP 140, DL 255585.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | I'd say none of them is parallel I'm afraid - but it looks like a fairly easily fixable flexibility thing. Squatting in jeans is certainly not going to help!! | ||

 memories , like the corners of my mind .... Member 49, 2298 posts SQ 200, BP 132.5, DL 220552.5 kgs @ 123kgs UnEq | Boar has basically covered everything i was gonna say. Very good strength tho, you had full control of that bar. | ||

One of the vids comes close if not to parallel, but it is almost impossible to ber sure , is that lankylarrys dodgy filming ? LOL, put the camera on a stool at knee height ,get a nice side shot. Looks to me like as you get further down your knees come over your feet, making you go lower but your knees are dropping aswell as your hips, i try and start the lift by pushing my ass out n unlocking hips and sittling back, the more upright your shins,the higher your knees. oh and squatting is jeans is like using equipment !!! LOL good strength though, you didnt appear to have any trouble thanks boar unlocking my hips,is that a flexability thing that tokar commented on?thanks hayden i can control the weight easy just cant get the hang of squating,ill take the 170k off the league until i nail the b*stard | ||

 Nothing left in the tank. Member 5, 25564 posts Administrator | No mate, i have poor flexibility also - it means that even naked i dont really squat down below parallel , someone like littleA can touch his balls on the floor the hips thing is more a technique thing | ||
