Strong! IMO seated MPs are even harder! I wish i can reach 200 even just with 8 reps but that's a long way to go for me hehehe
Thanks bro! Keep in mind the smith machine is not as hard as actual barbell. However it's more close to barbell than any other machine like HS, iso, etc. I like using the smith on delt or chest day sometimes when I have access to it bcoz it doesn't cause any pain in my RC doing militaries or inclines like the barbell version does. Keep at it you will get there! :sport:
wow! heavy skullcrushers. 2x10x30 is already inyense for me.haha hell, you can even military press me for endurance. + rep for heavy ass lifts.
Thanks bro. I have always been pretty strong on skullcrushers. Just be sure if you do them to warm-up the elbows alot with like pushdowns or whateva, bcoz skulls can make hell for elbow pain, tendonitis, etc if going heavy always. Been there, done that.
Hit chest yesterday and back today. Took a few pics yesterday bcoz I wil be the big 50 y.o coming Friday. Still feel 30 haha - you young guys enjoy life to the fullest bcoz time flies by the older you get!
