>>37972904

Decided to keep my front Squats at 225lbs for a 3x5 because I'm going to be rep maxing some heavy deads tomorrow and I need my lower back somewhat mint. Got mired from some old guys cause I was FS two plate. Hopefully I'll scare some hs kids tomorrow.

What do you think about taking a handful of days off right before a meet?

Ps congrats on the 405kg squat double

>>37972908

Haven't even had a chance to see them yet, brah. They've got us working full shifts to an empty restaurant. Literally cooking for 4 hours straight, turning out plates. Then before we clean up the joint everyone sits down to this magnificent feast.

This place is the flagship of a chain, so they want all of us totally on point. Looks like I'm skipping breakfast and lunch for the next two weeks. I just spent the last 6 months losing 125 pounds, and now I've basically got access to unlimited top-end pub-food.

Yo, thanks for the recommendation on The Sun Also Rises, brother. It's good so far.

>>37973057
Fkn monster m8

>>37973082
Front squats killing deadluft makes sense to me since the quad strain fucks sumo completely, and the core strain is equally bad for deads as regular squatting

lads. who here takes fish oil/zma. does it help with recovery? would recommend? my desire to lift is outstripping my hips ability to recover.

>>37973082

What weight class are you planning on competing in? You cutting down for your comp in a couple months or you just gonna stick it out where you are?

>>37973050

Peace, brother.

>>37973149
Take test oil instead then. Much more effective.

>>37973149

Both are only going to help you if you have a deficiency. If you eat any red meat at all you're probably alright on zinc - 100 grams of beef has about 50% of the RDV in it.

It's always better to get your micros from food, better bioavailability and all that. For magnesium, your best bet is spinach and pumpkin seeds (though most nuts have a load of the stuff in it).

If you're not a big fish dude, the fish-oil will definitely help with joint health.

>>37973187
Milk is the best source for magnesium desu senpai

>>37973152
I'm gonna stay here until I'm relevant (never) and worry about it when placing is contingent on my bodyweight (never)

>>37973205

Eh, it looks like a cup of milk has 10% of your DV. An ounce of pepitas has got 37% - plus the fat in pumpkin seeds is fantastic for your hair for some reason.

I could be wrong, I just reference healthaliciousness.com for all my micros.

>>37973209

Don't sell yourself short, man. You've got the touch. You've got the power.

Yeah.

>>37973342
Life goals. What are you down to bby?

>>37973481
No idea, but I'm wearing my belt four holes tighter and my deadlift is getting stronger.

>>37973501
Abs when?

>>37973523
I'll just do rollouts all day every day until my abs show through any amount of fat.

My overhead strength is ascending from poverty to mere mediocrity as well. I'm feeling good.

>>37973557
Can you reach the bar when it's on the ground yet?

What kind of overhead weight are you working with?

>>37973622
What am I, some kind of orangutan-armed cheater? I did widen my stance a bit and everything feels better.

I've been doing close grip Z presses with a multigrip bar. Last session was 235 for sets of 10. No clue what my normal OHP is at, but I was hitting triples at 260 or 270 back when my bench wasn't even 400.

Chilli for lunch before deadlifts was a bad choice

For real, lurking these threads for the last 10 months has been a wild ride.

Seeing just how strong so many of you are (and how humble most of you are about that strength when you're not memeing) was one of the few things that helped me get the weight off.

I look forward to getting stronger. I look forward to seeing all of you get stronger.

>close grip z presses for sets of 10 with 235
Will I ever even lift?

>>37975162

You can lift the plates on and off for him.

Seriously, what is basically a 235 strict log for 10 is really fucking good. There's some damn good strongmen who don't have that kind of overhead strength.

>>37975179
According to t-nation, Z-presses are easy to hit 225lbs

>>37975210

Anyone who tells you that is a lying sack of shit or has no idea what a z-press is (let alone trying to do it with the multi-bar, which is just a bastard of a thing in its own right). If you can hit your 5RM strict press for a single on the Z press you're doing pretty well.

It's a harder movement than a strict press, in this case being performed with a harder bar, done for 235x10. That's the sort of numbers you'd expect from a guy who strict presses in the mid 3s.

>>37975252
You're an idiot

>>37975260
Very impressive counterargument. Destroyed him tBh.

Is 2.5kg weekly on strict press unreasonable or not?

I'm doing 28 free programs 3 day beginner and stuck at 65kg ohp max.

I thought they were supposed to be magic? Should I keep doing what I'm doing an eat more or do the intermediate one?

One strongman I know trains his overhead by pretty much just doing a (daily) max then 5x5 or 10x3@80 for two variants twice a week.

The shoulders, man.

>10 kg lighter.

Sparrow is officially a twink right now.

>Tfw you are strong enough to rape Sparrow at this point.

>>37975447

Its ridiculous. He's right now trying to bring his strict pressing power up to something reasonable. By his own admission his strict strength is dogshit compared to his push (which he was fine with, because he got so much more carryover out of his push than strict).

If it works out, he's apparently hoping to hit something like 308@176 the next time the log championships roll around.

>>37975296
>Strict press
Only internet meme lifters do this. About as useful as half-ROM leg presses are for powerlifting.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

I somehow really need to fix all my shitty inflexibility issues that I have.
Fucking anterior pelvic tilt still strong, still have to fix my freakin hips.

My knees hurt when bending and then flexing quads, apparently because my quads are too tight.

And bench pressing makes my back all cramped up and then sitting hurts over a longer amount of time.
Didn't lift for 2 weeks and back pain went away, so it's definitely aggravated though lifting. And I can feel it after a bench seession, it's cramped up. It just pushes my spine exactly into that position, that is already under much stress because of APT.

So idk what to do. I want to get back into strength training but at the same time it also seems to harm me.

Bottom right pic for hips. Raise your leg a little when doing it and hold for as long as possible on both legs.
Seated good mornings for quads (maybe - it stretched the shit out of my quads when I did it but apparently it shouldn't??)

>>37977380
My garage gym is now a couple miles from home in a storage shed with no lighting or heating, so it's kind of dank and dark atm. Also the gym owner shops where I work and we got to talking.

>"you're a big guy"
>"not really..."
>"I own the gym nearby, how about you take this free month card and check us out?"

I said okay because it's nice enough, lots of cables and dbs and cardiovascular machines all of which I lack and am curious to try. I forgot to ask if they allow deadlines though.

If nothing else it might just be an """""""""""""off season"""""""""""""" month.

IT STRETCHED MY QUADS WHEN I DID IT IDK

I thought it was a quad stretch cause standing good mornings were a hamstring stretch, made sense to me

So I sat there stretching my quads for 5 sets of 5

>>37977438
I am doing top picture for hips ATM - what's the benefits of bottom right?
Also thanks!

>>37977451
I think you should apologize to me for saying "his Dick probably can't even get hard anymore from all the alcohol"

>>37977424
I also need to adress my imbalances, I believe they are a huge contribution to my issues.

My deadlift is whack, Infact deadly within 10kg of my bench.
My glutes are literally just hanging there, I can't remember feeling them anywhere ever and it makes sense, considering that I developed APT.

So three things really stand out for me: core, glutes and spinal erectors.
Hamstrings possibly too.

What do I do when I really want to strengthen these a lot?

>>37977488
Kek. I had no idea what to expect when doing f them so I thought the quad stretch must be normal so I explained it logically to myself.

My thought process was sheiko included these for the stretch, so you alternate sitting and standing because you stretch your hamstrings one week, quads the next.

Honestly it makes sense

>>37977469
Pulls your hip musculature into positioning. It's all I do for hips and I've gone from severe lower back pain can't get out of bed to squatting and deadlifting pain free in a matter of days

>>37977506
Alright, sounds good. But I think I am a little deeper down the drain than you.

Is there any resource that describes the stretch in some more details and gives some important things to respect? Does it have a name?

fuck. They aren't even family members I have necessarily been close to but it is so strange that a person you have seen before, a relative or friend, was just living their life and died and you only know about it because someone else told you.

I definitely don't feel like a little bit of me "dies" but every time it has happened I have felt a little different.

>>37977761
I see, so it's pretty much stay on Texas or I'm not expecting to progress?

>>37977780
Not necessarily. Depends on the severity of your cut. You could go on something like 5/3/1 and you might make some progress. It's up to you, really.

>>37977767
Yes. I should probably start doing them too, just not quite sure where to fit them in.

>>37977767
How is DOMs ever an indicator for the effectiveness of an exercise?

>>37977780
Suddenly changing programs while simultaneously suddenly eating at a deficit is a good way to lose all your gains.

>>37977823
The only reason I'm trying to find another program that isn't Texas method is bc I did in the past try and cut on Texas and I gained some strength and leaned out but it was extremely difficult, not optimal is a better term

>>37978169
I'd just do them before your isolations/fluff. Don't plan on being allow to curl or anything though. Wouldn't try linear progression since you'll be doing them after heavy (or not difficult) squats or whatever, so you should just apply yourself and get too wrapped up in the weight on the car

Do you know if they're a large or small fitting? I'm a size 11.5, but I usually get 12s (which they have in stock).

They're actually not that cheap, so I thought it better to go with a proper shoe.

Definitely do not size down with those Adidas. Just realised they don't have sizes bigger than 12. I'm a 9, and got a 9 with these. I said size up because they're quite awkward to get on, but they're not tight once they're on. So you might be fine with a 12. They're really good shoes otherwise.

IMHO do some sets of 5x10 Dumbell lateral raises after OHP
Do either 5x10 dumbbell flies or 5x10 dumbbell bench press after bench, or both cause you're a freak. DB flies last tho.
Do some dumbbell rows for 5x10 after normal rows
Also do some sets of supinating curls every workout for like 3 sets of something. Perhaps alternate lying tricep extensions with curls at the end of each session. So for example you do
Week1 // Week 2
Curls // triceps
Triceps // curls
Cups // triceps
Repeat

MY HONESR OPINION, I know I'm butchering somebody's beloved novice program. But muscle makes the world spin round.

>>37979267
You have a very large back, is this just from crazy deadlifting volume since forever or do you have preferred exercises for it?

>>37979228
O shit actually perhaps try and work in chin-ups somewhere, perhaps in place of dumbbell rows.

Do 3 sets till failure, try for 1 more rep in every set the next session. Say you get 3x2 go for 3x3 next time then 3x4 then 3x5 e.t.c

>>37979334
Yeah I really need to desu

>>37979345
I haven't a clue where you'd do them. Rows and deadlifts tire me the fuck out for chins. I'd argue you should do chins then rows afterwards.

>>37979315
You can probably get a very big back from just doing deadlifts,squats,benches and variations.

I used to do lots of rowing and pullups and shit but I havent done that regularly for over a year.

Pre-fatigue is useful I guess. What row variant do you do also? For the sake of your back for deadlifts I'd suggest pendlay.

Well you're gonna have to ask yourself if eating what you want to eat is more important than the small increase in gains you'll get if you eat more clean.

Wow no cow.

Lol I'm a hypocrite and never change myself, I wish lifting would sort out all my issues. It did initially until I realised I could keep my bad habits and it had no adverse effects when lifting.

But as long as you're doing well

This product is as good as it gets. Water, organic Swedish oats and a little bit of sea salt for flavor. That’s it. Then this product is packaged in a process that allows it to be stored without refrigeration. That means you can take it to the summer cottage and store it in the hall and then pop it into the fridge to chill before using. If you are familiar with our other products we recommend that you try this one. It has the potential to win some shelf space in your home.
