>not sure if those silver things are safetys
>they're not adjustable
>failed, managed to half rep it and it slams down right in front of my face, I guess it was scary
almost passed out while doing a cut and doing deadlifts at 120, got a PT to help with form and now I haven't come close to passing out again
>>39598600

>>39598600

>>39598811
good to hear my dude, glad you didn't smash your face
>>39598568
Yes, approximately 110lbs coming down on a couple square inches of your head is kind of a big deal.
>cutting for a while
>feel like shit
>gotta get this PR, incline bench for 6 reps with lmao1pl8, I did 7 reps last week at 130, should be okay
>3rd rep is shaky
>4th rep goes up almost to lockout
>spread and press
>spread too much, bar falling backwards
>rightonthenose.avi
