Squats
Bench
Press
Deadlifts
Chin-ups
Power cleans

Which of these lifts work rear delts?

>>35694104

>4 weeks later can't squat highbar but lowbar feels kinda natural

>>35694228
The only one there which I believe does is power cleans, and PC frequency on SS is once a fortnight, which isn't enough for rear delts.

I googled chin-ups and could not find anywhere which claimed rear delts were used in the chin-up.

>>35694312
Ah found it, never mind.

>>35694579
How can you even put it too low?
It's either on your traps or on your rear delts, it's not like you have much room for variation

>>35694608
should i just hire bert? one of layne norton's top tier ladies works out at my gym? i know i should just bite the bullet and keep studying programming, it's just a super slow process for me.

>>35694629
I think some people switching from highbar will initially attempt a stereotypical and exaggerated low bar, basically over accentuating the things that "make" it lowbar as opposed to highbar. You can see the same thing if someone has always done lowbar and attempts to squat highbar.

>>35694642
I don't think paying for programing will give you much if anything more than self programming or sheiko or something.
Paying for coaching is more beneficial for form and weak points.

>>35694625
Oh, with the braids...

>>35694629
>How can you even put it too low?
Rippetoe managed to make that an artform

>>35694642
Paying for programming could be good in the regard that you get personalised programming that focuses on your weaknesses(this of course assumes that you hire a good programmer and not someone like Leeman) but a coach would be better.

>>35694689
George Leeman is pretty retarded, right? And yeah, I'm just gonna keep programming, I can't have anything handed to me so I know I just gotta keep reading. So much bullshit to sift through.

>>35694735
>George Leeman is pretty retarded, right?
I'm not going to get into that, but from what I've heard he basically gives everyone the same program and is lazy as fuck to the point where it would give better results just to follow a canned program and spend the money on cookie dough instead.

>>35693474

>>35694908
>There's no such thing as 1 way works for all.
According to Rip it is but that's besides the point.

>Mark rippetoes form isn't bad, but may not work for you, just like form every other lifter uses.
Yes, but some things with his squat form is suboptimal for almost everyone(barring Blaine Sumner), like his excessive "elbows up", overexaggerated leading with the hips and forward lean.

>>35694984
I have self esteem, I'm pretty confident everywhere else

>>35695012
No novice lifters form is going to be optimal. Saying his recommendations is sub optimal is up for debate and while I can only truly speak for myself, I assume you and I don't know enough about the subject to prove anything.

The safest option is to advice people to do what works for them, be it elbows up or elbows down. I've personally tried both and quite preferred elbows up and never had an issue.

>>35695050
rippetoe a shit, no actual coach or lifter uses his awful cues

>>35695066
You can't prove that statement so I won't discuss it further.

>>35695012
you list basically can be summed up with
>hip dominant low bar squats
>suboptimal for almost everyone
pretty poor generalisation there.

>>35695013

>>35695050
Stop replying to Sean.

>>35695050
>>35695012
I want to clarify that I don't think elbows up is suboptimal, but excessive amounts of "elbowing up" will lead to upper back caving.

Also you're just saying that one should do what works and then say that it's impossible to compare different things.

>>35695085
>You can't prove that statement so I won't discuss it further.
You can't prove that I haven't squatted 9pl8 and coached 8 national champions.

>>35695090
No, EXCESSIVELY hip dominant squats will be suboptimal for almost everyone, and that's what Rippetoe does, he's EXAGGERATING the movement.

>>35695151
>saying rippe is a tard is seanposting
is this /stg/ or someshit?

>>35695164
>You can't prove that I haven't squatted 9pl8 and coached 8 national champions.

>Also you're just saying that one should do what works and then say that it's impossible to compare different things.

Not exactly. I'm trying to get across the idea that ideal is arbitrary, everyone is different and your best choice as a coach is to find what the lifter responds near to.

Not with all things, obviously we can all agree excessive forward lean is bad, but we can make minor form choices within reason to suit the lifter at hand.

It makes me literally unable to squat and fucks up my gains. What should I do? See a doctor or smth, can it heal itself?

My birthday is in 6 weeks, and I really want to pull 4 plates(180kg) before then.

Today I pulled 140kg for 6 reps.

Do you guys think I can achieve it? What's the best way to reach this goal?

Would it be smart to pull 2-3 times a week, just 1-2 sets each session(this is after squats) and then rest from all training 3-4 days and then smesh 4pl8 a couple days before my birthday?

>>35696649
feels like theres a lot of lockout overload in both bench and dl, both things i really really dont need

>>35696572
people can defend it - Avon defends it and brings up very good points while addressing criticisms and acknowledging its downfalls

you dont tho :)

>>35696672
You know theyre just templates right?
If you know a thing or two about programming you can modify them to your needs. Just be careful with it.

>>35696672
>lockout overload

The blocks and boards used AREN'T for training the lockout, they are for training the low-mid range of the movement. If you think your block pulls or board presses feel like lockout training, cut the height on them.

>>35696672
swap those movements for something else then... M

If you're going to pull more than once per week, consider "singles only" style training. It makes for more setup practice and quicker recovery.

Also, you may want to put squats on "maintenance" until you get your Dl goal.

Count backwards from your birthday. On your birthday you're gonna max out. 7-10 days before that you want to do a heavy-isch single to get accustomed to heavier weights and to get an idea of your strength. The weeks before that needs to be higher volume pulling consisting of many sets with lower reps to get some strength gains.

>>35696898
So something like 170kg for 1 a week before? I feel like I want to pull a triple at 165kg, and that will be the alert that tells me I can pull 180kg

Not if I can meme them otherwise. Plus you can just dump OHP day and do more benching or a variant plus some paused squats.

Hypothetically? Yes. In practice? Depends.

If your focus is DL, make it your focus. It's really hard to progress squat and DL at the same time if you're trying to train one of them aggressively.

>>35697035
>plg loves frequency too much for juggernaut
Don't tell anyone, but I sneak in squat singles inbetween 5/3/1 sessions when nobody is looking :)

>>35697042

Just do two bouts of Smolov Jr for your DL :^)

You look very good, but women, they lack of experience to appreciate the T-Rex Man.

I am not a man like you, I sacrificed gains for body image. Perhaps I'll change and become admirable like you. I could only hope.

Hope you're well.

how come program says not to push to failure

>>35697274
>how come program says not to push to failure
Because true failure on a lift will set you back fatigue/CNS-wise longer than leaving a rep in the tank.

>>35697274
You seem to have a probe understanding my post
Take everything you read on 4chan %100 seriously snd never question authority

>>35697225
It takes time to get used to. You'll probably over/undersestimate the RPE the first little while but as the weights increase and as you get used to it you'll get a better grip on it. Also helps to actually go to failure every once in a while to see what it's like.

>>35697274
Not worth it for the added fatigue and CNS strain, as well as leads to form breakdown which can cause both improper movement patterns and injury.

oh well just trying to be a little shit at judging rpes every week

>>35697314
Actually it takes around 1000 reps to learn a motor pattern. One poor grinder won't enforce any bad motor patterns.

>>35697346

And yet you repeat those poor motor patterns session after session you're slowing down the learning of the proper pattern and teaching your body to do that once the weight gets heavy.

lads should i cut to 82, or get fat and bulk to 100kg. Currently like 16-18% body fat at 90kg

This is a difficult one. What you've said isn't necessarily untrue, I mean, it even happened to me. Near the end of SS every set was a grinder and I taught myself to cave my knees in to complete the reps.

Although I feel as if this is easily avoided with supervision and allowing proper time for recovery. Not all max attempts cause form break down, fatigue causes form break down.

Do you ever read bodorios posts in a swedish accent how he would actually sounds? completely makes all his posts hilarious as fuck
cant take him serious anymore since I started doing that

>>35697375
Gains will get shittier once you start getting way above 15%. I'd cut

>>35697436

Hence why with the RTS style of training it's generally not recommended to go to failure often and cause that fatigue that will lead to form break down. It's similar to a CWS who saves his true maxes for competitions and works at a lower percent of his max during his training cycles.

>>35697460

>>35697478
That's just one way of training, in general however going for maximal attempts isn't inheritly evil or going to cause you issues, especially not with form break down considering that you won't be able to max out often without suitable recovery.

I'm really referring to 1 true maxes, not set maxes here, I must make that clear.

>>35697522
I was thinking along the lines of set maxes myself. Obviously having true max attempts is fine, even if you're not competing. But when every training session you're working towards an absolute max in whatever rep range you're working in that week then you're gonna cause some serious issues.

Didn't pull as much as he wanted to

>>35697629
he kept talking about how he thinks he will pull 330kg and how hes gonna open with 310kg

someone with a brain told him opening with 310kg is a bad idea and told him to open lower, so he did

then he failed 310kg twice

now hes hiding in shame because he told off everyone who said his idea of goalsetting is kinda dumb

>>35697710
He also gets bullied in the trip group because he's one of two fakefeddies

and because he disregards good advice because some drugy with a 30kg higher total told him otherwise

sometimes I cant tell if hes just a contrarian towards what IPF lifters say or if hes a moron with zero source criticism

He didn't set an ALL TIME so now he decided to leave for ALL TIME

Guys, how common is it for your ass to shoot out a bit when you squat, on the way out of the hole?
I used to have a problem with lots of forward pitch which I suspect might have caused it. Are there any good cues I can use for it, other than "chest up"? It only seems to happen on my heavier sets, but seeing how it's Texas Method and my heavy sets are as much as 5 reps, I don't think I can allow that much form breakdown for too much longer.
I might have a video for you, reckon I'll be back home in some 20 hours' time.

It's the outer part of my forearm. Could it be tennis elbow? Ive never heard of it come on so quickly though

>>35698192
nice job lad, closing in on that 3 plate.

>>35697242
This is just a little misleading: it's not one 'good' rep, it's one more ohfuckohfuck rep. 8 RPE is like low 90s percentage-wise.

>>35698215
Outer part of forearm as in palm is facing up and its on the outer part near the elbow, but above it slightly on the forearm? Could be wrist flexor tendinitis if so.

>>35698085
>which I somehow hurt from squats
Try using a lacrosse ball and really work it into your teres/armpit area. If you can feel pain all the way down your arm to your thumb, then it is probably rotator-related.

Low bar squatter, I assume?

>>35698215
>>35698298
If you squat lowbar, how do you grip it? If you're using Rippe grip with a bent wrist that could cause it. Or possibly if you did thumb under without wrist/elbow wraps

>>35698577
Yeah, that looks like wrist flexor tendinitis to me. Had pain in the exact same spot. Take it easy. Deload on squat and pressing, possibly switch to Rippe grip for squats. Of course, take my advice with a grain of salt, since I'm just an anon that dealt with something that seems to be what you are experiencing. What I ended up doing with bench/OHP was deloading and switching to pausing each rep on my chest for about a second. Couldn't tell you why it helped me but it did.

Neutral spine bullshit is bullshit. More lifters look up than look down and no cervical spine issues at all.

>if i look up i go up durr. if the second one is less retarded to you, i have bad news...

You follow your eyes, this is a common cue for a lot of sports. Plus it keeps your head, shoulders and chest up and helps avoid goodmorning squatting.

Going to start purchasing stuff for a home gym here on friday. Am i correct in thinking buying an olymoic bar and weights is the correct place to start? I would hate to waste money on shit im not going to use, and a bar seems like the first thing to buy for lifting.

>>35698877
Bar and weights it is. Plan on setting up shop next to the horse barn. Whats the next step after just a bar though? I know the majority of the lifts can be done with just the bar and weights (dl, front squat, cleans, jerks, press, etc), but is there anything else i need to set eyes on in the future?

No problem. You know your body way better than I do. So test things out and make sure you see a doctor. If it doesn't hurt you'll be ok doing that stuff. If it hurts, possibly deload more. Listen to your body.

Redpill me on the sumo deadlift, /plg/, why should I do them over conventional deads?

>>35698936
Yet all the powerlifters who look up don't. Even Malan who squats more raw than anyone else in the world looks up without injuring himself.

Circumstantial evidence is one thing but Ripp pulls most of his conclusions out of his ass. His claims have no basis.

Ripp has a very extensive book detailing why he does what he does. you obviously have a vendetta against him so there's no point trying to convince you.

>>35699145
Ripp has an extensive book that is supported by no other literature or experts I can think of (and very few if there are). Writing a book that sounds good doesn't mean you know what you're talking about.

But whatever, follow who you want. Nearly everyone realises Ripp is full of shit eventually and those who follow him to the T are just slowing their progress down.

>>35699145
Also lifting with a rounded back is fine when you're strong enough. Whereas looking ahead or up in a squat is fine as long as it's what you're comfortable with and you're leading the squat with your torso, not your hips.

the fact that you seem to think SS was written off the top of his head and is just "sounds good" logic (and not a collaborative effort between several experts), whereas you think "look up go up" is logical reasoning, just exemplifies your blind hate.

I understand people saying they're not bothered to read it and would prefer to bet their money on coaches with more successful powerlifters under their belts, but to consistently make blind arguments and push them this hard with no backing is just plain childish tbqh senpai

I don't understand this attitude. Rip has some great information for beginner/intermediate lifters. He has some great literature and vids out there, and he's open via communication on his forums.

"Eventually" you shouldn't need his advice anymore, because hopefully you begin gaining your own experience to build on.

One day you will be confident and smart enough to say "hey, that guy has some good ideas, but I don't agree with all of them".

Usually local running stores will have Green Superfeet, and they might let you try them on and they may even fit them to your shoe. Fleet Feet is good about this, and the inserts usually have a 60 day return policy, which is nuts.

Lol, hope you don't poop blood.

I'm rooting for you. I've had it twice, and luckily it goes away in a month max. I hope yours isn't more serious than that. Mine crept up when I was running half marathons at 190 lbs pretending I was still 130 lbs.
