Although, I think they’re going to make us wear masks this week (we lift at work until my home weights come in) so I have no idea how that’s going to go.
I am definitely at a point where I am forced to video it as I can’t see a lot of the mistakes and errors in “real time.” I finally got him to buy a pair of lifting shoes. Hopefully they’ll be in today so he can feel what it’s like.
I’m also working with Pete Troupos to help me with my lifts right now as my squat needed work and apparently I was really screwing up the deadlift. I’ve learned more from him critiquing my lifts than I have in a while. Sometimes it’s the feedback from the teacher when you make a bad grade that helps you learn.
