Good or bad?
I was thinking of adding them and sprints after squatting.
Do them before hand.
They are a good way to build up "explosive" power ready for your squat set.
Do sprints another time.

Lower back pain general
I can't be the only one here who injured their back thinking that reading SS was all the preparation I needed for squatting and deadlifting heavy. I swear I've given myself degenerative disk disease.
What did you do to fuck up your back?
I had some low back pain at some point during SS. I spent a lot of time working on my form and eventually I figure it out. Most likely your back is only temporary.

Where does it hurt?
I'm looking to start keto, any good reading sources I should look over to help my knowledge of things to stay away from and to stay on top of. Also good recipe sites and books would help.
bacon xDD

is a good start to get your macros, although there is a lot of play. I'm doing keto to maintain a low BF right now. There's a lot of info on the web, and a lot of misinformation, both on the pro and con side, so take everything with a grain and salt. also eat grains of salt since you will flush sodium a lot. I personally hate the keto recipes out there that just emulate junk food and desserts. get your fat macro from healthier fat sources, seeds, nuts, coconut oil, olive oil, grass fed butter, eggs. stay away from trans fats. what are your goals and current weight/bodyfat?
>>39492656
oils
meats
cheeses
cruciferous vegetables. spinach kale all day
ELECTROLYTES- double fist magnesium, sodium, potassium etc first couple days
if you live by in n out, two flying dutchmen will be a perfect meal
Is ZMA a meme?

No, it's a real product that you can buy.
I want to completely replace food with flavorless pills and drinks, I have issues and flavor cannot be in my food.
Is it possible to completely replace food?.
I was thinking of going completely with soylent whilst eating supplements and pills like cereal.
Any /fit/izens tried something similar?
Can we finally leave the eternal jew of food behind?
>>39492646
Yes, start by consuming 9mm bullets orally.
That's supposed to be the whole point of Soylent. Try it, see what you think.
You'll want an extra fiber supplement, and if you're trying to bulk, you may want extra protein as well.
>>39492746
Thanks anon, will do.
Is the bench press falling out of style? I've noticed less people doing it at the gym, and more people here saying they don't like/do bench presses at all.
All the jack dudes at my gym only do incline bench and dips for chest.
Personally I prefer dumbell press, I'm less likely to get my head cut off when using heavier weights. Also im too social awkward to ask for a spot
>>39492531
At my gym (YMCA) a high percentage do bench. Lucky for me there are 4 power racks and most of the kids do smith machine bench.
How do I do strict barbell rows ? As soon as weight gets heavy for me I tend to do rows that are closer to Yates rows. If I lean forward more I sometimes have a hard time holding balance with 2pl8+ infront of me. Because of this I usually prefer doing DB rows or just go for Yates rows atm...
seated rows
Pendlay rows
>>39492470
sounds like you need to strengthen your core more. I think we naturally tend to stand more upright when our core isn't strong enough. Add in some core work and go lighter on the rows.
So I just googled the nutritional values of a pickle and ate one. It was delicious as fuck and extremely low calorie. Is it really as low calorie as google says it is? Is there any downside to eating these? Can one eat too many pickles? Seems like have a lot of sodium, but does that matter?
>>39492340
A pickle is cucumber, vinegar and salt. The cute has green veggie level calories (almost none), vinegar has the best calorie to flavor ratio of any food ever (no calories, intense taste) and salt is non caloric too.
Is massive salt intake bad? Yes. It's associated with all cause mortality AFTER you control for its effects on many diseases like hypertension. But it's the pickle's only flaw.
>>39492340
If you want to eat a lot of them, consider just buying nice cucumbers and marinating them, sliced, in a bit of salt in the fridge before eating. Very satiating. Less salt, less hypertension.
>>39492398
Keeping homemade pickles (and generally home canned food) can kill you if you fuck up when preparing it though
"get up, we have to train"
>gf groans
"Can't we take 15 or 20 minutes to wake up and have breakfast first?"
>throw mandarin orange at her head
I then proceeded to call her a bitch ass hobbit (her favorite movies are LoTR, so she knew exactly what scene I was hitting her with) and she sort of smiled, picked up the orange, and started chowing down.
It has been five years since we started down this path together. Usually she'll just bitch and watch me workout alone then do her own later. Today legit impressed me.
Anyone else make any progress with their training partner lately?
