kek I laughed way hard than I should reading this.

shameless self-bump yo

I shit you not, I saw some guy do that once. It was with babby-weights and he was still taking notes on how much he lifted, to be fair, so he was definitely a noob.

I used to take notes, too. Stopped doing it because holy fuck why the hell would anyone ever forget he just deadlifted

I still support the idea of suicide grip if you have long fingers, I can hold the barbell without much problems on the OHP and it felt very good, I could squeeze 3x10 with 52kg, if I'm correct you can use more of your triceps in the process, it helps a bunch, probably 2 more reps in each set in my case.

Too deep

4pl8? For reps or 1RM? Although both are astonishing good for a Natural I suppose you're one

You're lagging, bruh, it's been 3 months already

I use a suicide grip for presses because it feels lighter and easier on the wrists. But not on the bench since I only bench with dumbbells.

natty 1rm

>I can bench 4 plates

No you can't.

Can you please stop making the exact same post in every thread?

>>89872

But suicide grip doesn't add anything, anything but the threat of death.

That's bullshit, try to deadlift with both grips, are you going to tell me that a thumbless grip ios just as good? that the thumbs do nothing to hold the bar?

I have to say though, i'm surprised you're supposedly able to bench 4pl8s and still have your neck in place.

Suicide grip isn't thumbless, the thumb grips the bar just as much. Try doing an over under deadlift grip with your thumbs on the same side of your other fingers, it's called a monkey grip. You will be just as strong in this position. Your thumb joint however is not capable of stopping a heavy weight from moving in a direction normal to the palm if your wrist rolls forward when you bench.

>Garbage physique

indeed, but he's a decent powerlifter tho

>Retarded Opinions

Not so much, I sincerely learned a lot from him, even if most of it is basic shit.

>>89956

I'm not going on facebook

But still, there's no way the thumb can exert as much force in that position, the point of thumbs is to grab things with it opposite to the fingers, that's why we have them, it makes no sense to not use them in the way they should be used, especially if it's about holding heavy ass weights.
