Looking to take it to the next level

[chesty]

My squats were at 465 when I was going heavy with a 405 bench, my barbell curls were 225 and I worked out with 185 barbell curls. My chest was always about as strong as my legs. I couldn't deadlift for shit. My unlcez used to make fun of me because of it.

Bad form on either will bite you in the ass hard and fast.

From a perspective of improving strength and systemic wide gain, nothing beats deads and squats. They subject your body to massive stress which in turn produce massive natural responses that have a whole body benefit.

I agree with you totally and still do squat and do deads. But I am just saying I won't max out on squats or deads like I would on bench. Someone made refrence to him benching more then he squats. He still squats over 300. With proper form I don't see that being so bad if your not looking to compete, etc.

If I had a trainer with me on leg days I would probably go heavier, I am just not looking to hurniate a disc again. I don't have time to lay on the couch for a few days.
