I see guys turn full ROM bicep curls into standing hip thrusts when going for a max, then celebrate a PR. Same deal with half rep leg presses and rows that become lower back swings.
I've started tracking load AND rep quality. If the last rep looks nothing like the first, I don't add weight next week. Ego hates it. Muscles like it.




If your spotter has to deadlift your curl, the PR belongs to him

Hey, people gotta get their standing hip thrusts in somehow. It's kinda gay to use a machine for that, so hiding it behind curls is the way to go
