Mamdani looks like he's got 1 plate on the bar, adams looks like he's got 25 lbs plates on the bar
Either way the spotter is touching the bar in both cases so the lifts dont count.
I'm talking to whoever needs to hear this: you don't need to lift to make numbers go up. You can use the weight as a tool for ripping muscle fibers apart efficiently the same way a spoon efficiently gets beanis to the mouth. If you don't want to chase numbers, don't. Get your spotter's help, do 10 reps, use the weight that doesn't break your form, use machines, flex in the mirror.
and don't forget, if it sucks, hit da bricks! you can just leave!
IIRC there was a body builder who would do a bunch of reps with a low weight and still looked jacked
Allegedly Bruce Lee did that a whole lot, which made his muscles quite compact compared to other people who were lifting the same weigh. No idea how true it is, and the fitness space is so filled with misinformation that I can't even factcheck it.
