Are you supposed to be on your heels when you front squat? when i go onto my toes my back is less vertical but the lift is much easier. when i stay on my heels my back is more vertical but it sucks. i'm guessing i should be more vertical and back and i'm just weak, right?

Front squatting will help.

Planks, rollouts, HLR's. Don't make it complicated, just do a few sets every day.

>>34950621
Are you doing them when you're fresh or when you've already done your main lifts for the day and want to get some front squats in? Because front squats are insanely tiring for your core

that's the best way to play any rpg imo. Just diving into missions/quests just makes it go way too fast and you don't get to appreciate the world. Like in Skyrim, the best decision I made was never fast traveling. Makes it so much more in depth and you find so much more cool shit that you never would otherwise because you have to discover it outside of any main questlines.

>>34950661
I am slowly starting to get it with locking onto a single enemy and blocking and all. I just suck at it. It's just a lot different than what I'm used to. I am definitely getting better at it though. I think I probably overstated how challenging it is tBh.

I have played just a little bit on my friend's xbox1. was pretty neat, but we are finding a lot of bugs. but ig that's to be expected with brand new games.

Day 1 was nice. I didn't realize that you were supposed to take longer breaks between sets in the pyramid squats, and I ended up doing all of them with like only a minute rest in between and my quads and back were ded after. bench continues to go ok. how is yours?

on the real, any sort of volume on squats absolutely kills me. Like after the last set I couldn't even rerack the weights for like 3-4 mins because my back couldn't deal with standing straight up. Was rough.

I feel like between your form getting way better and doing the program correctly, you are gonna have some awesome results at the end. And yeah, I'm getting pretty hype too.

My other buddy from home was gonna go for a state record in the deadlift, but he hurt himself so he's not anymore so that's a bummer, but he'll still be there helping with attempt selection and stuff.

Yeah, I'm gonna be on a low deficit next cycle, probably cut to around 132ish, and staying there for a while.

Gonna really focus on my deadlift technique next cycle, cause losing weight never really affects my deadlift at all, so I want to keep the progression going and get huge numbers desu, whereas my squat and bench will probably suffer a little

Natty for now. Down the road, who knows. I'm more interested in strongman than powerlifting, honestly, and it's basically a requirement if you want to have any chance in that.

Did you try any lat stuff, and did it help?

>>34952132
I completely forgot desu, but apparently the twisting isn't happening anymore, so it's sorta fixed itself, but I'm guessing it'll come back

I'll try the lat stuff for my squats, since my back goes completely loose during squats even when I try my hardest to keep it tight

>>34952170
>not doing lat work

the lat is a spinal stabiliser ffs

>>34952181
He's talking about lat activation warmups

>>34952181
It was activation because one side was dipping during deadlifts and he also twisted a bit during the pull.
Just curious, how many pullups/similar do you do in a week?
>>34952170
For curiosity's sake, where are your elbows pointed when squatting?

>>34952196
Kinda on an angle in line with my torso when I start descending, I've heard you should point elbows down, but whenever i do that I feel like the bar is going to roll off my back

>>34952196
at the moment im doing 8x8 rows, either v grip or barbell bent rows

not really doing chins at the moment which is bad, but total reps per week 192 with 70kg+ for v grip and 105kg+ for bent rows

Also when doing block pulls, is it better to mimick how it looks in an ordinary pull at that height or should I try to mimick how I want it to look? To clarify, I round my back on heavier pulls(wich I'm trying to change), should I do block pulls with a rounded back or should I try to keep my back straight?

Lads how do I into keeping my back tight during squats?
So far I've tried pulling the bar down like a lat pulldown, and also tried just tensing the fuck out of my lats, neither work when it gets heavy desu

Also, I'm starting to do squat mornings even worse than I usually do

>tfw pretty much forgot how to squat

>>34953589
How about pulling your shoulders back as hard as you can, so your traps basically want to leave your skin?

>>34953448
>Making money feels like a terrible waste of time
It really is. At least the way 99.99% of the population do it. Not to sound cliché but you really do only live once - you only have a finite number of minutes to spend, and when it runs out there are no second chances. Game over. The currency of life is TIME! Life IS time! Why would you spend your time (your life) working in a cubicle doing something you wouldn't DREAM of doing if money were no object?. What a horrible trade off a whole week of dreary work is for a short 2 day break.
But oh we need money to sustain our lives, we need money to pay bills, to pay for clothes and food you say!
So what is the solution?
You have to SEPARATE your TIME from your INCOME. No more trading your LIFE for money.
The rest is up to you to figure out.

>>34953595
I don't get what you mean by pulling your shoulders back lad

>>34953604
>You have to SEPARATE your TIME from your INCOME.

So basically, be born in an already rich family or win a lottery. When you start from nothing it's really hard to create a passive source of income.

>>34953611
You know, that thing you make to get your upper/mid traps pop out

>>34953627
Retracting your scapula?

>>34953630
Yeah, that plus externally rotating shoulders should keep your upper torso tight. At least it does it for me.

>>34953611
>So basically, be born in an already rich family or win a lottery
This is incorrect.
>it's really hard to create a passive source of income.
This is correct.

>>34953639
>>34953619

>>34953639
Teach me master. Assume I have no savings.

>>34953636
Tbh I could definitely be retracting harder, and tried doing both the retraction + external rotation together in my seat and my back felt MUCH tighter than the way I normally try to keep tight.

Thanks lad, will try this for my squats today and see how it feels.

>>34953604
Oh wow advice from someone with no idea how the world works

You think we don't think that? We don't know this? The reality is we need to pay our way and not all of our dreams have money in them.

My dream job is to sit around all day playing games and indulging in media with some sports on the side.

That doesn't pay.

Ok, first step is to change your attitude from TAKING (pls teach me, AKA consumer) to GIVING (producer).

>>34953670

Producing usually requires funds to start the thing going.

>>34953662
>we need to pay our way

>My dream job is to sit around all day playing games and indulging in media with some sports on the side. That doesn't pay
