Maybe youre using more back and/or shoulders in chest

Even biceps

Pointing your thumbs up (I know, it is uncomfortable and bruises you but helps) during dumbbell presses is good to take away your forearms and much of your arms in a chest press

And the good ol pinch of the scapular blades with decompressed shoulders (back and down) is the way to go

Do you Drive up from legs?
Slow it down and just pay attention to what you feel

Hang on to the time under tension where you feel

With lighter weights

Train your mind to feel

And build mind muscle connection

Donā€™t matter if itā€™s light

Just gotta do a lot of it

For sure, I am a pretty tall guy so maybe that plays a role as well. Yeah I realized the slower repetitions with a lighter weight allowed me to feel the muscle more when it came to chest, but with triceps I just liked to do fast reps and they still grew like crazy

Donā€™t rely on stims bro

Get that mindset stack going

ā€œGotta put ya mind to itttt
Gotta dig deep!!!ā€ - Ronnie Coleman

Child like wonder right before the gym
Fields like Unbreakable
Hand of Glory

Bring the m-------- ruckus!!!

Use the stimulant workouts as a reference to what work outs can look like

Cuz Iā€™ve had more crazy work outs than the stim work outs of the old thatā€™s for sure (used em in the beginning at times), a wholeeee lot of em lol

Soul restoration series is dope for that endless energy feeling

Used to take animal pak multivit, but now that I look back those ridiculous amounts of vitamins where really unnecessary. Now I just stick to some zinc, mag, omega 3, vit. c, and the occasional d3+k2.

Damn, Ronnie Coleman trained like an absolute beast. The old videos of him training in his prime really gives that boost before training :slightly_smiling_face:

Then I wanted to be greatest rapper ever

Then the greatest boxer ever

Then the greatest bodybuilder ever

Then Iā€™m here lol
Typing stuff on random thoughts thread

And stuff

I think Iā€™m aight!

lol

Retired all those ambitions

Need to get right
Nā€™ put this fire in some good furnace that does a good job for the world

(Hearing the Japanese version you posted now, English version better no doubt lol missing that fire)

Owl shared it but now Iā€™ll claim it

Made this song under some spell of an imposter entity claiming to be Supreme Goddess

But this is how I rap in a way

In case any one is wondering

I deleted my old body building pictures, I donā€™t have any lol

But those were cool too

I didnā€™t record any sparring from when I lived in a boxing gym in Oakland

Only got memories
I think, Iā€™m very fervent with things I care for

Isnā€™t that great man??

I can listen to Rihannaā€™s ā€œDonā€™t Stop The Musicā€ for hours today, itā€™s the closest thing I have to that experience of the old

I think itā€™s a perfect song

What can be said thatā€™s bad about it? That itā€™s old? Lyrics donā€™t need to be more complexā€¦

I can rap scream these lyrics while this shit blast on a loud speaker broā€¦
