The biggest thing there (with increasing the weight) is getting over your fear of dropping it or getting stuck.

I don't use those weight clips just incase I get caught(which I have been) . Then I can just tilt the weight off.

I remember once I had 235lbs (this isn't even that heavy)on the decline and the very first lift up my hand slipped off the bar and the weight came crashing down on my chest and ended up on my neck....That was the scariest feeling I have ever had. But so much addreneline pumping through me that it didn't hurt. More like

Now I use chalk, just incase.

TALO's Sig:"We only grow when we are recovering.I see it all the time people beating themselves up in the gym and not seeing results. They don't understand that hitting the weights hard is only a small part of growing or even cutting down. "

All that was probably total unrelated to the whole "peaking" vs "deloading" topic.....
are you speaking to me?

EricT's Sig:I'm tired of the myth that bb'rs aren't flexible. As a group, they are extremely flexible. They have an amazing ability to bend over, place their heads between their legs, and blow smoke up their own asses.

Yeah, I've had to role or drop a couple of times in my life, but now, there's just no room. I should take a pic of my "gym" ha.
