Back in college i was able to do 225x2 and felt like I was strong. A decade later, i came back to tue gym and progressed up. I just got to the point where I am doing 225x5x5.. doesnt feel as sweet this time

I don't get why "225" is such a sought after number. I guess it's because in america you guys use lbs whereas here in uk and Europe we use kg. I think 100kg (220lbs) just sounds better. It's when you finally hit proper 3 digits.

@@bigpickenergy5321 it’s a big deal because it’s 2 plates. Instead of putting small plates on like a 5 or a 10 or 25 etc when you can put a proper 2 plates on and lift it, that’s the milestone and why it’s exciting. And Now the next one for me is exciting at 315. lol it’s bro culture too man

I always tell people to do close grip for most of your barbell bench and dumbbells for flat and incline. There’s so many more benefits aesthetically and strength wise when you barbell bench close grip. Them triceps and front delts do a lot of the work. Also us a assist for your pull-ups so you can get those slow reps in. Then later down the road see how much your unassisted pull-ups have improved.
