@billbennet Again, I’ll just reiterate that these are averages and there is a ton of overlap in the distributions. Part of moving from the beginner to intermediate stage is figuring out what works for you, and choosing programs/tweaking programs appropriately. Some women will need one less...

@ronit I am so bummed for Lya. She would have crushed it. Not that she owes anyone an explanation but I am curious what went wrong there.

@earthbear Strongly suggest following a full body routine from the fitness or xxfitness wiki. The idea of doing a period of maintenance, followed by a deficit, followed by maintenance is fine. Though 3 weeks is not enough time to build an appreciable amount of muscle at maintenance (you will...

@lovejoypeaceetc Jessica Buettner today at 1pm EST. I will unfortunately be on a plane while she is competing so I can’t watch live 😔

@lovejoypeaceetc Sitko’s bench press, holy shit.

@yeshuashomri Cannot wait to see what she achieves in the future. She’s gonna be a GOAT.

@lovejoypeaceetc Deadlift WR for Buettner, and I think body weight gives her the win over Agata. What a battle. Incredible.

@jim2323 Lol I am watching from an Uber on the way home from the airport. Couldn’t miss it!

@angelsue It’s not just you - it worked for me yesterday but didn’t just now when I tried.

@lovejoypeaceetc It's ok, we still get Amanda, Amelie and Bonica on Saturday!

@jim2323 Love this

@lovejoypeaceetc Bit of an off day for Amanda Lawrence, though she still won the gold of course. Missed a couple of her benches and failed to beat the record Jessica set two days ago on her final deadlift. Bonica Brown won gold as well, and set a squat world record 🔥

@lovejoypeaceetc And if anyone is interested in the men’s super heavyweight, check out Ilyas Boughalem’s world record bench 👀

@msheffi972 Another showdown in the women’s division to look out for is Brittany Schlater vs Sonita Mullah…everyone thought Worlds last year would be Sonita vs Bonica Brown but then Brittany came out of nowhere to win it.

annd she broke her own world record with 161.5 on her second attempt

@truth_seekers On barbell bench, the bar should touch around the bottom of your bra band. More than you ever wanted to know about bench mechanics. You can also supplement with DB bench, cable press, chest press machine, and machine or DB flies if you want exercises with more ROM.

Tiffany Chapon kicking us off with an easy looking 155kg squat!

@reallifejoke I love her. She seems so nice.
