If I can give you one piece of advice it'd be to keep your head up on deadlifts. I am just looking out for your back man, don't take it the wrong way. Chest up/Head up, always a saying I've heard for deadlifting

 

[Busby]

thanks, thats why i post the videos, dont have a workout buddy, just my ole lady so its good to get some feedback, will def remember that on back day next week

Can't tell in the video, but the closer you can keep the weight to your body, the better. My shins are all scarred up from dragging the bar up my shins. I don't necessarily suggest that, but I always did it because it was a rush when I'd see the blood. I'm just a sick fuck though lol

Same thing does for squats too. Just keeps your back in better alignment. Chest up, scapula back

Everything else I've seen looks good, definitely some great videos,

Man, to be honest, Ive been doing it like that ever since i started lifting solo, its the only way that i can get em going, on those 135s it was a little difficult but i got em, when i go with lesser weight its not so bad, if you got any tips im all ears bro, thanks.

sure, what works very well for me is with flat db press, get the dumbells up higher on your legs while sitting down, pretty much as high up your thigh as u can without it touching your abdomen, when you lay back your arms barely have to move for them to be ready to press from that position. Now with incline db press its quite the opposite, where ud want the db closer to knee and individually pop them up to your shoulder. Alot of people do not pay attention to this and end up torquing the shit out of there shoulders when its unnecessary if u do it the way I described. I hope I described that well enough to be understood correctly

Updated Stats

Just got done taking measurements and things are coming along, wish my back would come on and blow up.

Shoulders: 51.75
Chest : 45.25
Bi : (L)16.75 (R)17
Forearm: 14.4
Hip: 41
Quads: (L)24.75(R)25.1
Calf: 16.5
Neck: 18

Will do waist and body weight in the morning as usual.

Weight: 211.8
Waist: 34.75
Shoulders: 53.25
Chest: 46
Hips: 40.75
Quads: (L) 25.5 (R) 26.15
Calves: (L) 16.35 (R) 16.65
Biceps: (L) 17.8 (R) 17.65
Forearm: (L) 14.4 (R) 15
Neck: 19


Not too unhappy about the gains, my measurements are getting bigger, not gaining much weight tho, my goal of 230 looks like it may take a year or 2, lol. Not sure what my b/f is at right now, Ive been eating anything and everything trying to gain weight so Im sure my B/F has suffered, the calculator that I have been using says 15.31 % which is higher than I would like.

Took some photos to go along with the measurements.

Would really appreciate some criticism here, I know I need to work on my forearms, lats and calves, not too worried about dropping the fat right now, im prolly gonna wait till next year to try and get on stage.
