What ya'll up to tonight?

Easter long weekend, just finished studying and getting ready for lifting tomorrow.

>>36539711
Wow sparrow got... Sexy

>>36539711

Killing time between finishing my study stuff and going to bed, when I should be doing some writing stuff.

Also contemplating tomorrows press session and how I need to do something about the growing gut I have.

>>36539723
If you eat more, the gut will be even prettier desu

>>36539730

honestly, I probably should be looking into that. Going down to compete at 90kg probably isn't gonna work at 6'2, regardless of how shitty I am right now.

Bench shirts (supportive gear in general, really) will actively fuck with your bar path and can do all sorts of weird shit if you don't get things exactly right. Single-ply bench shirts in particularly have a really bad rep for trying to throw the weights back over your face.

>>36540087
So if you actually want to overload your bench and mainly bench raw, something like a slingshot would be a way better idea than a shirt?

>>36540033
you have so many servants

>>36540106
Yes. Only use a bench shirt if you know what you are doing or are with people that know what they are doing. Or you will hurt yourself.

>>36540106

Generally yes. Chains or reverse bands would also work. Boards are also an option but are kind of a pain without spotters. Gear just has too much of a learning curve for it to be all that efficient for most raw lifters.

Lower back rounding is acceptable and is competition-legal.

But it's not the best for your spinal health in the long run, so try to avoid it for the most part.

Your back looks fine in the webm though, very small degree of flexion, nothing to worry about.

I'd say you can try to contract your lats a little bit better, but your deadlift looks fine overall.

>>36540617
You're not rounding

CAN I JUST DROP OHP?

I'm a novice lifter. I maxed ohp for 1pl8 and since have lost like 10kg from my max.
It's uncomfortable, hurts my shoulder.
Doesn't give me pump like lateral raises do
Doesn't feel healthy like lateral raises do
I can't find the right position, every position feels bad
Every rep is a grinder
Feels bad on my spine even when I squeeze glutes and push hips forwards
I can't do it after bench and not feel like cancer
I am not about to stop benching to progress OHP

It's cancer I hate it SO FUCKING MUCH

Can a novice really drop OHP? Why / why not?

>>36540862
I don't do OHP anymore. Shits gay

>>36540871

>>36540876
I lose like 30lbs on it after doing any kind of bench. And I'm not going to prioritize it by doing it first so fuck it. Lateral raises and bench are all you need for shoulders.

>CAN I JUST DROP OHP?

If it's not your goal to get stronger on the OHP, then yes, obviously.
You should still do it once in a while (you can use dumbbells if you want), but you're not obligated to try to push for heavier OHP numbers at all if it's not your goal.

>>36540910

Thumb high, pinky low.

>what would be the effects of dropping OHP?

You won't be training your shoulders as much. Not a big deal if you do lateral raises or dumbbell presses or even incline bench once in a while.

>Can I progress OHP by doing just lateral raises?

I don't understand this question.

>>36540971
I just realized that at the bottom of his squat he's sitting closer to his left side than his right.

>>36541009
You said once that you've never seen somebody with a sub 1pl8 press that can do like 18kg lateral raises or something.

If I trained lateral raises only would it carry over to my OHP without directly training OHP?

I DO want strong shoulders but I can't force myself to do OHP anymore. I'd rather quit lifting.

>>36541016
Its a neat trick. One foot stabalizes the other you push with toes.

Keep your thumb up and pinky down when doing lateral raises.
Just do them with a plate and bit a dumbbell IMHO

>If I trained lateral raises only would it carry over to my OHP without directly training OHP?

I advocate using the lateral raises (+bench) to increase your OHP. As an assistance exercise.
I'm not sure you'll be able to progress as you expect if you drop the OHP and use the lateral raise as the main exercise. I mean, you might, but I wouldn't expect it.

However, if you keep benching heavier and heavier, and doing lateral raises, your OHP is gonna go up for sure as the muscles involved in it are getting stronger from the other exercises.
But if you want to increase your OHP, you shouldn't drop it as a main lift.

>I DO want strong shoulders but I can't force myself to do OHP anymore. I'd rather quit lifting.

You don't need the OHP for strong shoulders. Lateral Raises + bench + chinups should be enough.
But you need to OHP (for the most part) in order to get stronger at the OHP.

>>36541057

External rotation. Opens more space inside your glenohumeral joint, which leaves more space for the stuff to move without impinging your rotator cuff tendons.

>>36541078
If I did those 3 lifts would I still be able to put heavy objects above my head?

Biceps tendinitis usually hurts pressing, cleaning, and overhead stuff. At least that's my experience with it.

I have BT in my right shoulder, I can do weighted dips and barbell overhead press without pain, but I can't do bench (especially not incline) nor lateral raises without my right shoulder hurting for days.

>>36541152

You sure it's your biceps and not your rotator cuff?

If I bench 3plate, did 20kg plate lateral raises above head and could do 1pl8 chin-ups for 10 reps or something, what would you predict my OHP to be?

Anybody else get strainedish abs from deadlifts?

Fuckers kill my abs. Benching today felt awful. Abs felt tight and painful. Admittedly not enough to reign concern, but definitely unpleasant.

>If I bench 3plate, did 20kg plate lateral raises above head and could do 1pl8 chin-ups for 10 reps or something, what would you predict my OHP to be?
Ok, so you bench 3pl8, so you have experience with straightening your arms, so that's good.
You can also do lat raises above your head, so you do have experience lifting things over your head, which is good.
The problem comes is when we start to consider your chin up strength. As you know, OHP is all about moving your arms up relative to your head. With chins, you are moving your arms down relative to your head, so strength in that movement pattern is going to work against you, because it is the opposite of what you want.
Luckily for you, you are able to bench 3pl8, which of course is actually 6 plates, and you can do lat raises with 1 plate in each hand, so 2 plates total. I'll add those up to be 8 plates. You said that you can do 1pl8 chins for 10, so that translates to -10pl8 OHP strength.
So based on some pretty simple math, I would say you could OHP the bar with 2pl8 worth of reverse bands.

Strong is specific to a movement unless yah literally isolate every part of the shoulder and measure that

>>36541565

2MB, 640x800px

>>36541753

Pain where, exactly?

>>36541298

It looks okay to me.
If you're doing bench and OHP PR attempts in the same day, the OHP can end up suffering fatigue and perform worse. Most people prefer to alternate with vBench+iOHP / iBench+vOHP or something.
You can also do the same thing for the squat and deadlift, as in vSquat+iDL / iSquat+vDL

But some people like the v+v/i+i scheme. Personal preference, I guess.

I'd probably leave the pullups out of mon and thur, but since it's bodyweight I don't think it's gonna end up mattering much.

Honestly, the routine looks okay. Try it for yourself and see how it works for you, then change things around based on your performance and progression.
At this point there's no cookie cutter routine or solution. Every lifter responds to training and handles volume/intensity/recovery differently. So adapt things as you go on.

Around the front or back?
Like pic related?

If so, point your toes out and shove your knees out when you squat. Increasing your stance width a bit might help as well.
If you're doing lowbar, focus on "sitting back".
Work on your hip mobility before/after the workout, and stretch your hip flexors, glutes and hamstrings often during the day or before bed.

The fact that they hurt during the sumo deadlift might indicate that the hip flexors are currently inflamed or strained. Try using some ice and topical antiinflammatory if needed, and let it rest for a few days without straining them again.

Make sure you're warming up properly before your squats and doing enough warmup sets.

I had figured something like this.

I suppose, more to the point of the motivation issue:
>college, smoke weed all the time
>still made the time to walk to the gym 3-4x/week
>never needed external motivation
fast forward...
>graduate, get good job, move away from everyone
>suddenly have no desire to go to the gym
I don't know what to do. how do i re-motivate myself? I feel like if I just start to get back into the swing of things it'll become second nature again, but...

>>36541943

Thx trappy. They're definitely inflamed, so I'm taking some time off lower body. They feel worse the wider I go, so I think it's an issue of not being flexible/warmed up.

SSB specifically? Or the spotoshot method? I'm currently on the spotoshot method. Don't really squat with the ssb but next training cycle will be a variation like high bar or ssb.

In a sense I'm his first test subject, mainly because I wanted a fun bench program

>>36542142
Hmmm

>>36541990
>if I just start to get back into the swing of things it'll become second nature again
it does

also since this is a powerlifting thread, having set dates for meets is quite the motivator and if you dont compete its one of the best things to keep you going, you might not be winning but there will likely be people close to compare to and try and beat/ catch up with next time

Pain in that area can be caused by a huge variety of things, and I haven't seen a video of you squatting or haven't tested your mobility and your pain, so I'm speculating of course. But from my experience handling people with hip pain, opening up the feet a bit more and shoving the knees out (when going down) fixes half the cases by itself. So don't neglect this.

This is because the pain and the inflammation might be caused by your tendons getting impinged, and not just because of straining due to lack of mobility.

Can you explain why you feel that way about the deadlift and squat programs? I have the 28 programs, but besides the novice 3 day bench, I haven't really looked at them. Might switch over to the bench soon when I get kicked off of pressing programming from SS.

>>36542231
They are usually 4 week cycles based of AMRAP sets. This works well for bench, but doing AMRAP squats is CANCER. Deadlifts aren't usually AMRAP for intermediate and above programs AFAIK. They are high volume but they are fun.

I did 4x5 deadlifts @ 80%, then 6x3 @ 60% then 3x10 rows and I was destroyed but it was fun and felt good. This may be because I recently started doing touch and go though.

The squat programs seem to have a focus on front squats and I dislike that.

Deadlifts for sure. Sumo was causing me some nasty hip pain because I was being dumb and assumed that if I COULD go max width, I SHOULD go max width.

I've actually tried to bulk to 50kg multiple times.
Currently trying to at least reach 48kg. But I'm terrible at it, I have classes from 7am to 6pm so I end up skipping a lot of meals and not eating properly.

More or less 9ng/dl. It varies, I'm usually around 5-9ng/dl.
Normal women stay within 30-90ng/dl.

I've been thinking of increasing it a bit to see how it affects training, but it's something I'm a bit reluctant about, and I'll have to talk through with my doctor first.

>>36542477

Yeah, kek.

>>36542418
I'm somehow liking them all right now. Even though squats are being stubborn as fuck and I got kicked off beginner programming early for them. I understand the sumo feel though. I was messing around when I was stretching and I went to the maximum width I possibly could, and after miming a sumo pull, my hip started to hurt and the pain didn't go away until the next day. Don't think I'll ever really go back to conventional though. It never felt as natural as sumo feels now.

She probably doesn't feel like a man. Being trans is complicated -- your brain tells your body that your gender is wrong. So it's not as simple as just accepting you have a dick. Imagine waking up with a pussy one day with your current brai -- you wouldn't just accept that you're a girl.

Thanks for the hip stuff again, trappy. I think I might be going a bit too wide on my sumo, and I think I need to sit on my heels during squat more. Doing daily mobility stuff too, plus I'll RICE it.
