that progress ozzy... nice stuff man keep going

I thought you were talking about his hips and thoracic mobility since he falls forward quite a bit...
Pretty much only weightlifters who does it with a clean grip so I don't see the issue with the cross-arm technique?

E: Also this ain't the compound room why we posting vids of lifts?

bloody morons i tell ya

Eh didn't really watch to break down his form all that much, but most lifters could work on hip and thoracic mobility. Definitely wouldn't hurt to work on it though. And there's not really a huge problem with it other than it's a little safer (in my opinion). I had an Olympic lifting class and just got used to it so I always try to advocate for it over the crossed arms. Especially since you can work on your wrist mobility which is needed in a lot of the lifting population.

Meh I know someone who front squats 500+ with the same cross arm form. His form is fine as far as that goes.

We are patiently waiting for your 1 plate bench video mate.

Didn't mean to be rude.

I didn't realize you were so sensitive. Sorry for offending you by talking to another man about his lifting.

Considering you don't come close to parallel I would say you do.

Edit: Don't be a gym bro and neglect mobility and stretching

I just absoultelty love that you tend to point out form and mobility every now and then. Don't get me wrong, I like your persona, but it's just such a stereotypical situation where someone who doesn't even lift has always something to say

My current lifts are

225 x 5 squat
255 x 5 deadlift
135 x 7 bench

5'10, 159 lbs.

Pretty happy with my numbers for my size. If you want to call me a person who doesn't lift, that's cool though.

As someone in a DPT program, I care way more about mobility and form than numbers.
