Like ... I don't get how people think doing that poo poo helps. I just ... you're doing literally everything wrong. You wanna work out while pregnant? Sure, I don't give a poo poo. Just don't kip. Kipping: Not Even Once.

I'll kip a little to get a couple more reps when I'm tiring out. But that .gif isn't kipping to finish a pull up. It's just swinging from a bar.

Konstantin Konstantinovs (cool name) does kipping pull ups, but his chin goes over the bar with every rep. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=boLl8rGhJvE

My knees keep tracking in on squats. Tried to hit 200 3x5 but thought my knees might collapse so I stopped. Bought mini resistance bands for my knees and went down to 185, knee muscles (abductors adductors I don't know which is which) are confirmed blasted. 2 plates here I come choo choo

Also what is wrong with my babby chest, I'm 5'9" 165, squat 195 3x5 deadlift 270 1x5 but I just managed to hit 135 bench with no spotter. Is it because I used to be a 125 pound long distance runner

^^^^ try switching to dumbbell bench for awhile it helped my bench A TON Say Nothing posted:Konstantin Konstantinovs (cool name) does kipping pull ups, but his chin goes over the bar with every rep. is there any advantage at all to doing something like this over just doing less reps of correct pull ups?

Profondo Rosso posted:^^^^ I used to always do 3x8-12 dumbell bench after bench and press but once my dumb rear end tried too hard to finish a set and I tweaked my shoulder pretty bad. I still do it now but I have trouble getting close to failure because of instilled bodily fear of weights yanking my shoulder out the socket

That seems like kind of a bad idea (although I'm no expert). Dumbbell benching puts far more strain on your stabilizing muscles, and if you're doing it right after a different form of bench press (i.e. after you wore out the tris/chest already) it would be a recipe for for injury if those muscles aren't already pretty strong (which they likely are not if you are struggling to go above 135 with the barbell).

E: also that ^^^^^ Try doing more shoulder work, too. Pullups (shoulder/back), overhead press with bar or kettle bells or something, iron cross, etc. Work your way up in those and dumbbell presses for a few weeks, then go back to the bench. Also ask someone at the gym to spot you.

^^^Yeah that. Get a lift off on the heavy stuff so you don't waste energy or concentration on just getting the bar to the starting point, and on the heavy have the spotter give just enough help to get the bar up, repeat until it becomes a negative lift. Then wear out the tris & chest as heavy as they'll go, dropping the weight after each failure so you get more failures in session. Then eat protein like a fat chick on a cheesecake.
