Misanthrope and pretty much the entirety of TSoP.

>learn to play instead of learn songs

yeah this is very important. I started out playing bass and euphonium in band and later in a few student jazz bands and having a solid grounding of music theory, proper technique, proper practice and what not made picking up the guitar fairly easy, or at least easy compared to some of my friends that picked it up as their first instrument.

Haven't heard it tbH.
I want to learn TSOP so bad. Have started with Flesh and have it pretty much down (except cba Hamm's solo part and it's difficult figuring out Chuck's part in the intro just before his bridge or what it's called).
I really regret not puttnig more effort into my guitar classes way back when. Would probably be more like you now if I did, but I was too narrow minded/childish/stubborn. Been thinking of just memorizing some of the scales and learn to meander, but it's slow going. Have any tips on getting better?

Thinking about it, I should probably just buy a fucking book from the music store in this town. Maybe even go through the beginner guitar book I have at home for the fuck of it.

>>38813492
You're 83% more likely to bag one

Probably because of their BAC though

>>38813501
eh, good "how2guitar" books are hard to come by.

and as for learning the scales, that's a good step but I think it's better to learn theory at a deeper level and know how to construct scales, why they are how they are, etc etc. r/musictheory has a very good sidebar of resources on theory.

learning where the notes are on the guitar and learning theory are good starters, as for actually gitting gud, it's pretty much all down to practice. it takes a fuckton of time noodling and practicing if you aren't a musicial talentcuck.

>He is literally this obsessed with me

its because you're such a little shit you make stupid comments like "That's also a good bit less than their deadlifts" meanwhile in reality if you could count or was less of a ignorant prick you could see he was sheiko repping their maxes with ease

and then when its not this you're calling people like livia objectively ugly when in fact you have the ugliest girl in plg next to maybe buda

Oh and to top it off you have the weakest bench press in plg next to some random 16 year olds like lith and company

Did some high rack pulls for the first time today (about an inch above my knees).

They're actually pretty fucking awesome. Huge upper back pump. Highly recommend.

>>38814153

There's a reason so many bodybuilders swear by rack pulls over regular deadlifts.

Not always the greatest carryover to the competition lifts though.

>>38814180
Trying out a progressive ROM thing.

Bob Peoples was a badass, and Gnucks said it put like 80lbs on his deadlift.

>>38814215

Let us know how it goes. I've wondered for a while how that'd work.

>>38814215
Is where instead of increasing weights you increase the rom every session?

Squatting heavyish 2x week is pretty hard tbqh

Eg >>38814267

Why do so many strongmen get nosebleeds when doing a maximal deadlift, but powerlifers don't?

Do powerlifters just not know how to Try Hard?

I literally doubled my bench volume from my previous program and I'm still not feeling sore at all. Why didn't I do this before? Clearly volume works: >>38815659

>>38815901
Ring fingers on rings is good man. Where I'm at right now. Been having some shoulder fuckery, so I don't want to move my grip out more yet.

>>38815901
Why are you shortening your ROM outside of a competition?
You should be comfortable doing wide-grip, but why train with it?

>>38815920
>Been having some shoulder fuckery, so I don't want to move my grip out more yet.

>>38815925

but wide grip is 10x comfier for shoulder, narrow grip is painful.

>>38815918
5'11 with 6'3 wingspan

>>38815920
It was so comfy. I tried a single rep at max legal today and it was so easy/short ROM but felt really weird with my shoulder.

>>38815925
You should train like you plan on competing. Plus wide grip targets your chest more and narrow targets triceps. I'm doing plenty of extra tricep work, so it should be fine.

>>38815925
>

This is a very tired meme. Variations like close grip and feet up, or highbar or conventional dl or deficits or whatever are nice, but they are only variations and there is zero (0) reason not to keep your competition style lift in your routine year round.

>>38814821
orals.

>>38815947
>but wide grip is 10x comfier for shoulder, narrow grip is painful.

This.

>>38815438
I still retain my opinion from this morning.

>>38815954
Dam son you got lanky arms, no wonder your bench is relatively shite. Why is it that larger framed lifters seem to have narrower grips (spoto, lily), but tiny dudes use max grip (sergey, gerglund)? Is it just their wingspan in relation to ring width?

>>38815969
>>38815954
Increased ROM = increased gains, no? Is there not a reason people don't just load up 8plaet, unlock knees, relock them, and repeat for sets of 5?

>>38815954
>5'11 with 6'3 wingspan
TFW
6' with a like 6'5" wingspan here.

>>38815901
>>38815920
Wider grip is roughly one million times more comfortable for my shoulders than closer grip. I do still train a good amount of (somewhat) close(r) grip though.

>>38816007
>Is there not a reason people don't just load up 8plaet, unlock knees, relock them, and repeat for sets of 5?

because the competition legal squat involves going below parallel? the bench has no minimum required ROM

>>38816007

No.

It can, provided that increased ROM effects what you're trying to improve, but its not a universal thing. Plenty of people do very heavy/short ROM movements as a supplementary exercise. They just aren't usually all that useful by themselves when you're competing in a sport that requires you to break parallel on your squats.

>>38816003
Roiders get away with more triceps dominant benching, not even memeing a little bit.

Not closegripanon but wb defecit deads from strength off of the floor? Goes beyond legal definition of lift but used to create more training effect

>>38815589
I ain't a power lifter. Just a good overall program for strength. Thoughts?

>>38816037
Whats the correlation? Roiders usually have relatively narrower grips but the usually comes from westside crossovers and they have overdeveloped triceps. The roids are a coincidence, not a cause

>>38815903

>>38816003

It's partially frame (exacerbated by the fact that everyone has the same max legal grip - if you're the size of someone like Ray Williams, even a max grip isn't really that wide), partially the fact that bigger guys often aren't as mobile and can't arch up enough to make the super-wide grip as effective.

>>38816023
Not sure I get it, I've seen at least 5-8 trips on here post squat webms, get the 50 >NO DEPTH responses, and go "eh whatever, it's just training, I'll hit depth in the comp," and have others agree with them. I've seen world class PLers do this on Instagram.

So clearly a lot of people (including some of the top) see "training" lifts and "meet" lifts as two different beasts...but when it comes to increasing ROM for the sake of maximizing results in training, it's weird?

>>38815992
Thanks man, but any ideas on how to add in more OHP and accessories. I'm not a power lifter and love to OHP. The volume day of TM destroyed me for a whole week while cutting. Coming to to the end of my cut as well

>>38816088
Yeah i figured that, sergey is like 4'9" and ray is like 6'3" so that makes sense. But why is it that super wide benchers always have great arches, and vise versa? Why doesnt everybody have max legal grip to maximize efficiency?

>>38816094
Just swap all bench for OHP, and add cable crossovers/DB flys so you don't end up with Vintage Strongman Chest.

>>38816071
Nice opinion. Roiders can get much, much bigger triceps than non-roiders can (this is an objectively true statement), Westside is a coincidence, not a cause.

>>38816042
You do fencing? That's pretty cool desu.

>>38816077
>when Alex pretends to be forever alone but he's really a total chad

>>38816090

Usually those are max-ish singles. They're more about feeling weight and getting used to it than directly building strength. They're also usually close enough to depth that its reasonable to take that weight deep enough to get white lights.

The volume work? That'll hit depth most of the time.

>>38816113
Why can roiders get more developed tris than chest?

>>38816077
Don't feel sad mang, you're a strong chad, there's nothing to feel sad about

>>38816118
Yeah, it's been a year since I have, but if I had the time I'd totally get back into it.

>>38816042
Nah, the study didn't prove much, their only test group was novice lifters. Experience says there's plenty of benefit to be had from extending ROM, but I - who am (?) just now entering the conversation - would still say include comp style lifts almost all of the time. Do some accessory work after for a longer ROM.

You can get away with switching from high bar to low bar with pretty minimal effort, but bench I think it's worth it to keep your pecs/delts/cuffs conditioned to a wide bench grip.

>>38816094
Run 5/3/1 on your light day, do 5x10 after ID. Won't take much out of you, should get you some progress.

>>38816111
Yeah me neither aye

>>38816110

Because that super-wide grip has a marked tendency to tear the shit our of your shoulders if you don't have a good arch and it often means having shitty leverage at the bottom of the lift (general rule: wider grip = lower sticking point) so if you can't find a way to avoid that problem at the bottom you can end up benching less despite the shorter ROM.

Also big guys tend to have long arms and long arms often means issues with shoulder joint stress in the bench. Bringing in the grip is a method of protecting the joint in a lot of cases.

>>38816149
Not sure I'm advanced enough to do 5/3/1 or variant of. Or do you mean use that style as a light day

>>38816127
That's how androgenic and anabolic substances work. Do your own research. Or just literally look at pictures of tested and untested lifters. People using steroids can get proportionately much larger arms than natties can, I won't brook any bullshit anecdotes otherwise.

Older. This is from when he first started doing online coaching. It's a four day upper/lower for general strength or offseason use. You pretty much just do a ton of submax doubles or triples on the main lift (80-85% of a gym max, depending on the week), some more on a variant of the other main lift (like deficit deads or whatever on squat day) and then bro out on a ton of assistance.

Worked last time. Should work this time.

Anyone here do dips? How into shoulder health when doing them? I seem to not have any control over my scapula, andeven if I did I wouldn't know how it should be positioned.

Guy at the gym told me not to arch and only go halfway down to save my lower back

I said thanks bro but I don't want a shoulder injury

Benching in a commercial gym is hilarious.

how do I get rid of butt wink when squatting?

>>38818920
Try just squatting more, pushing your knees outwards, and stretching your hamstrings beforehand. Can you lay your palms flat on the floor in front of your feet? (Locked knees)

>>38818920
for me it was stretching hip flexors and learning to breathe and brace correctly

>>38818943
hahahahaha fuck no

thanks for the tips bro

gonna try it out

>>38818960
I'm not saying it'll be your golden ticket, but those certainly did it for me. GL bro.

>>38818943
A commonly held belief is that the hamstrings are tight so when you go into the bottom range of a squat they resist letting the pelvis glide back naturally, and as a result wind up pulling it forward as you descend into the movement. The downside to this is that as you squat, your knees bend, which reduces a LOT of the tension on the hamstring and making it so that their effect on the hip in terms of resisting movement is somewhat minimal.
I would argue that the area being stretched would be the glute complex (including piriformis and also adductor magnus). The concept of the knee shortening the hamstrings and the hip lengthening them during a squat is a concept known as Lombards paradox, which states that during a balanced flexion of the knee and hip, no real length change occurs in the hamstrings as well as the rectus femoris.

>>38819036
This

>>38819036
That's really very interesting. Reading about it now. I started off with a pretty wide lowbar stance, and now that I think about it I also did glute stretches to get deep. Would that mean you get more knee bend (and therefore less hamstring tightness) with a narrow stance squat? So anon could try bringing his feet closer together?

>>38819070
http://deansomerset.com/butt-wink-aout-hamstrings/

>>38819070
How else is stance width supposed to affect the squat?

>>38819036
Could you simplify this down a bit? I sort of understand what you're saying but it'd be nice if you could write it in a way that a complete layman could understand

>>38819207
Hamstring tightness rarely causes buttwink because the knee flexes as the hip extends.

okay then how do you fix buttwink

>>38819207
Do the toe touch hamstring stretch, feel the tension

Now bend your knees, the tension eases off, same thing in a squat

>>38819219

Ah thanks a tonne, that really clears it up.

Who is going?

>>38819221
>>38819245
Well it's going to be partly genetic and partly to do with how fat/big you might be. For any given person, there's only so far you can close your hips with your thighs straight. After that any further hip closing will be done by the back.

Now ways to solve this are
1) Pushing your thighs outwards further. This may mean using a wider stance and correspondingly stretching and strengthening the adductors and glutes.
2) squatting with knees furter forward and closing the hips less overall

1) is generally better but you can do one or both

I'm not the anon who posted that, but I'll explain just what the hell is going on.

There's this thing called an 'iframe'. When you load a web-page an i-frame is like another web-page inside a web-page. For example I could go to google and in a small box they load a page from twitter.

In this case, a page from /v/ is being loaded. In the thread from /v/ there was some shitty java script to run a gif Mario across the top of the screen, which is apparently loaded along with the iframe.

Some websites actually load iframes of size 0 with adverts inside of them, sometimes even malicious content. Gotta be on the look out for those cheeky iframes (but you can't see most of them anyway).

tl;dr - iframe loaded the page inside your current page and the javascript to make Mario run across the top was loaded within the iframe, which then caused him to run across the actual page.

Not as much as bracing and appropriate knee spread. You should have tension in your whole abdominal wall and in your glutes throughout the lift.

I don't think it's as bad as a scared cat and it shows you clearly have the strength in your back to lift the weight. Just focus on keeping a straight back without hyperextending.

I'm actually worried lads.

I don't know if I'll be able to pull 4 plates again. 150 feels heavy as fuck still, meanwhile supra maximal pin squats feel smooth as butter.

I don't know what to do at this point, if sumo doesn't workout, I may forever be stuck with a sub 200 deadlift. At that point I'll probably quit the game and stop deadlifting altogether.

>>38820605
Aren't you cutting? Why are you expecting to get deadlift gains while cutting? If you're going to give up that easily, you might as well start collecting rocks.
