They replaced the Smith machines in my gym with Hammer Strength machines...talk about another downgrade. First, they replaced free barbells with Smith, and now they have Hammer Strength.
I tried to bench on it, but the angle on the HS machines was starting to eat away at my shoulders. Didn't even hit my chest right. I left cause I was frustrated...cancelled my membership with Planet Fitness too.
Then, I went to Gold's Gym and signed up with them. Got a free personal training session on Sunday 3 pm.
Just going to get some rest, and deload my weights on my workouts as well. Going to start over from scratch since I'll need to learn coordination now.
Qft..i did incline press on that along time ago and it hurt my rotator for about 3 months..nevr againThat's interesting that you couldn't handle the Hammer Strength. If they are plate loaded, i'd take those over a smith machine any day.

Mad respect for you taking **** from all those random haters on your vids ill. I knew you had been lifting for awhile, link to that P90X vid you were in?
haha. thanks bruh. had to say SOMETHING. but i'll try to find it tonight.
iLLest!
Can't bench on a HS, that angle has to be made up for. I tried a few sets today, and none of the sets were hitting my chest. Oh well, I need to coordinate my body anyway, and get used to free weights.
Weighed in at 188 today, down from 190 since 1/1
i dont even weigh myself no more, it throws me off...back in december i was 158lbs, since the beginning of january ive been eating much better and doing crossfit 4-5 times a week, my gut has decreased a bit and now i weigh 164lbs does something bad to my psyche when i see more weight on the scale, so i dont eem bother...lol
Yo that actually sounds like a lot of fun. I may just throw that in as a conditioning workout at some point. I lightweight really like the rowing machine for some reason.Benchmark WOD today
"Christine"
3 rounds for time:
500m row
12 bodyweight deadlifts
21 boxjumps (24")
This should be fun...
Real talk, my staple bench routine is thumbless grip guillotine bench on a smith machine with no spotter and 105% of my everyday max. #gottamurdermychestI've been taking Orange Triad (multivitamin) since a few days ago and my piss was looking neon green today lol. Anyone else experience this? I had Opti-Men before which made it neon yellowish.
Btw instead of regular barbell flat benching try "guillotine" benching. Swear my pecs have never been worked harder. Basically you bring the bar up and down from your throat instead of your chest. Make sure to use a spotter and less weight than you would while regular barbell flat benching though.
Yea man, I feel the same way. I gotta start posting my screenshots. Just more motivation**** this macro **** is hard. I did tuuuuurible.
