Important update: I just hit myself on the side of the head with a 35 kg dumbbell

@LemonWorld
You should be taking care of me now 😒 I'm injured

@LemonWorld

That will do

@greensnacks
What are you saying?

@caPnAhab
I'm not sure if I remember what numbers are now

@SomeIrishPerson oh. Surely you're at least more handsome now, right?

@SomeIrishPerson dude 🤣🤣

@SomeIrishPerson 😐 smart*ss

@Bexsy
I think I deserve a pass for being annoying. I'm hurt 🥺

@SomeIrishPerson valid point

@mindstruggle
If I touch anywhere near the upper part of my cheekbone, it hurts 😩

I dont think theres any serious damage done. It could have been a lot worse.

@SomeIrishPerson
Be careful. ***pokes

@mindstruggle
Of course you'd have to poke it, wouldn't you? 🥹

@TurtlePink
I knew there was a good reason why I did that 😩

@deadgerbil
I do at least a couple at the end of every set. As long as your form is decent throughout each set, a few cheat reps won't hurt.

They're a good way to hit the muscle an extra bit beyond what you'd normally be capable of.

@SomeIrishPerson now what about not doing strict reps like Eddie describes

@deadgerbil
I think that is a good enough way to train. He has a point about not wasting time and keeping the muscle under tension. I actually use a similar technique for shoulders.


That being said, if your aim is to build muscle, any method that takes the muscle to near its limit is about as good as another

@SomeIrishPerson did you check your pupils?

@MyNameIsHurl
Yeah. I think they look normal

@SomeIrishPerson You may develop a black eye.

@Jexie
I do need to be a little more careful.

@empanadas
Nothing says brilliant mind like self inflicted brain damage at 30

@SomeIrishPerson making Einstein jealous

@SW-User
It's okay. It got damaged a few days later when I dropped it by accident 💀

@SomeIrishPerson That'll learn em
