Wendlers 531 is based off a training max, which is different (and lower) from your 1rm. You shouldnt be struggling through the vast majority of your sets and reps
aqlu t1_jbi70ai wrote
Like the other guy said, use a lower weight. By doing more reps at less weight, you can fatigue the muscles more. As you get stronger you can load on more weight, but for testing the upper ends of your strength you really should use a spotter.
If spotters arent available, use a bench with some sort of safety mechanism or sturdy boxes as a failsafe. Even with safety failsafes, if you cant knock out clean reps with good control, it's time to rack it until you have a spotter. I bench in an empty gym and the bench setup doesnt have anything to catch the bar if I miss a rep, so I leave the clamps off if I should ever need to dump the weight.
Strength is a habit, not a moment

Glad to hear it. Hope you gave her an evaluation of her performance, seeing as she was relying on stuff you taught her.

Going by OP - he taught her some baseline level of skills, gave them opportunity to practice, and she spent some time preparing for this. Preparation usually means a slip up doesnt guarantee death, but it's all internet conjecture til he posts an update

If she's out there surviving, then you taught her well. She'll come back in if her skills aren't cutting it against the elements. You're not responsible for shitty household situations.

Yeah, referring to end of the first trilogy. I didnt read beyond there. I think it counts, but without spelling out the plot I guess it depends how you're interpreting "MC" status

Joe Abercrombie's The First Law series sets up a MC twist pretty well

I have been looking for this recipe for you dont know how long. I never knew the name and "almond layer cake" on google is useless.
E: poked through your previous posts and saved a couple of those recipes too. Thanks for putting the work in!

Granted, I'm not out visiting local farms to try an assortment, but I've never had eggs that I could describe as "too rich"

Who has palettes so discerning that they complain about an eggs richness? Eggs are eggs.

The implication was that riding motorcycles invite severe injuries, like severed limbs, more frequently
