Loving how far I’ve come with bench. #powerlifting

So I haven’t seen anyone talk about the significance of the red and blue hats that Smoke and Stack wore in #Sinners. They were twins-Ibeyis. In Lukumi (Santeria) , if you are born a twin you are consecrated to Yemaya & Chango respectively as tribute to the Ibeyis Kehinde and Taiwo. Beautiful touch.

Y’all don’t understand how devastated I be when I’m on YouTube looking for a blog to put on in the background and they start talking about Bible study and Jesus. Everybody a born again and I just need a heathen to aimlessly talk about their day.

I was seriously just thinking that. Incredibly vexing time limit

I was just laying there and then finally I was like, “Now?”

Blooper.
This was my first time at this weight and we had a miscommunication. He thought he was just spotting and I was waiting for the press command. I waited so long for the press that he was thoroughly, yet pleasantly surprised I pushed it up lol

Thank you 😭

Second set I failed trying to slow down. Still out of position, and fatigued to boot.

Tough & disappointing day. 165kg (364) sumo deadlifts 4x3.

Sharing this because sometimes you don’t kill it. Some days you get called out by your coach for rushing and being out of position.

Sometimes you call it a day and cry in the bathroom. But get back to that shit.

Happy Sunday

Thank you! Keep grinding and you will get there 👌🏾

I hate that my bench presses won’t let me be great. I’m pulling 400lbs or so in deadlift, 300lbs or so in Squats, and my raggedy ass bench is maybe around 160lbs. Granted, I haven’t been at this long but still I cry #powerlifting #Roadto1000 #powerlifter

117.5kg (259lbs) Pause Squats 3x2. Also working on ques.
