30 Minute Back Workout + 160kg Bench Press Journey Thoughts

Hit a quick back workout today and took a quick extended rest time to give my thoughts on recent 160kg bench press success
Talk 160kg bench press 7 minutes into video.

[@silviaendings6665]

I've decided a 200KG deadlift is next on the agenda. I did 190KG 15 years ago then life happened. Time to get serious!

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Lets go. Sounds like a plan.

[@baronmeduse]

Oh dear. I missed te 160kg lift! Congrats on hitting the target, well done.

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Thanks

[@marquinhos258]

Just stumbled across your channel. Cool stuff brother Barry

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Thanks ✌️

[@garyburton8060]

I've been using your journey to 160kg as my motivation for a 100kg bench press. So well done, and thank you for making the videos. Have a Great Xmas and a Heavy New Year.

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Thanks Gary. Hit that 100kg mate

[@scribbler1100]

Well done on the 160! Frankly amazing that you did it only two days after doing a massive bench session. 😮 Your rate of recovery is extraordinary

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Volume sessions have helped massively

[@KazimBaksh]

Seriously well done mate 👏🏽

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Cheers dude

[@RestlessBs3]

Mate don’t worry about your reactions, aggression isn’t something to apologise for! Be yourself, that’s why people watch your videos. There will always be people that try to knock us.

[@barrythomsonlifts]

All good

[@chrisabbott1511]

Love that one mate am going to try that

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Worth doing

[@harryhairo7272]

[@barrythomsonlifts]

[@WesleySissons]

Will continue watching your channel will be interested to see were it goes would love to see you enter a local powerlifting show with proper programming I think you would do great you definitely have the drive to do it the bodybuilding too political great job and Merry Christmas .

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Thanks mate 👍

[@wadelowther2993]

​@barrythomsonlifts You'd do well in Bench only competition. What are your squat and deadlift PRs?

[@jib6984ify]

Love the wrist strap landmine hack 👍🏽

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Genuis hey :)

[@jib6984ify]

@barrythomsonlifts yep. I'm gonna have to give it a go.

[@clearthinker9507]

Hi Barry. Thanks for another great video. Why dont you do a road to what ever the weight is for the deadlift or squat or even both and go through correct technique ect for alot of us out here. But if you have your heart set on bodybuilding then go for that my man. Keep the videos like you have informative and real. This year i have increased both of these core movements and with squats i have used the box squat for the first time ever and that has helped me heaps to get stronger as well. Cheers big ears.

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Deadlift would be a good one

[@swole84]

Road to 60kg dumbells bench press

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Thats worth going at

[@AI1983-r1k]

Respectable and authentic speech on your 160 Journey. Nice to hear your honest psychology on it.🫡

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Always

[@chrisabbott1511]

Enjoy your work out videos mate how do you deal with elbow pain

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Dont get to be honest

[@chrisabbott1511]

Barry I do the same but I got a bolt you screw in Ito a car you use to toe it with and welded it to the bar and it fits perfectly on the end of my land mine watch my back routing and you will see it

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Good idea 💡

[@chrisabbott1511]

Barry do you use the triangle bar for or v bar on your land mine for back

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Yes I do

[@blondviking6064]

Like watching your training. Nice place in GB you living at, what city?

[@barrythomsonlifts]

South Coast

[@bendthebar-pl]

You could join me on the road to 180😂

[@barrythomsonlifts]

I'll join you as your spotter 🤣

[@supersquats]

Ever do the prone dumbell bench row Barry? Its an excellent row variation and it really saves the lower back.

[@barrythomsonlifts]

I dont.

[@supersquats]

@barrythomsonlifts Its a very good one hits the back brilliantly and you can go to failure without risking the lower back. Love your channel. Floor press video was excellent. Whats your daily eating regime for your goal?
