Hurt my knee and lost all athleticism. Might as well have stayed at home playing WoW, the end result was the same.

So if Rocco, Phil, and Alex are getting a huge advantage from their athletic background, is it permanent?

Do they just get a boost at first, then we previously sedentary losers eventually catch up? Or does that gpp (maybe specifically during developmental years) help forever?

Does that mean novices should try to get done sort of athletic base while they are starting/before they start training?

>>38898022

You are literally fucked because you didn't have optimal endocrinal and skeletal development growing up.
>>38898008
I did too play football (yuropoor version) and did karate until I was about 13, didn't do much Tbh, wasted my early teens on WoW, then my late teens on weed, drinking, art and music.

check

>>38898087
>yuropoor version
thats where you fucking up, prancing around on grass like a diva for 60 minutes isnt gonna do anything for you except develop a nice hungry skeleton physique

>>38898067
I was a mediocre swimmer in high school and even 5 years later when I started lifting I could bench 70kgs for 5x5 tng and pull 100kg 1x5 on day 1 even though I had no physical activity for like 5 years. I wasted way too much time cutting for muh abs and had shitty progress at first. Since I started bulking though my progress has been pretty good. I think if I had stuck with swimming my starting point would have been much better.

>>38898067
What athletic background?

I rowed in high school and had barely any gains but was very lean at 180 lbs... Now I'm 220 and less lean but a lot stronger

>>38898228
Gotta confuse the rectum right babe?

>>38898158
Anon who hurt his knee here. I played mostly defender, and I had decent legs and ass (got regular compliments from girls) when I played. I imagine it would have decent carry-over to dead and squat if I hadn't hurt myself. The games are 90 min btw.

>>38898067
I really doubt isley would be that lean at 120 desu

>>38898258
only one way to find out

>>38898258
If his bench went up 30+ kg bulking from 93 to 105, than it should go up at least 30 more bulking from 105 to 120 and beyond

>see "acbraith" post on a hannahchan IG video

I'm pretty sure he's has tried EVERY trick in the book to cure his valgus, as has most every squatter with significant valgus.

>tfw never braced core when doing squats and now my lower back feels odd
Welp. Guess I learned...gonna have to work on keeping lower back neutral

>>38898398
I just wanna hear what he thinks.

>>38898411
Ever considered your hamstring mobility could be a factor?

>>38898398
>>38898378
I have considered it. And embarked on a program of doing band work to strengthen it.

Nothing much changed. But you know what, I'll try again.

>>38898592
have you ever done the thing where you put bands around your knees and squat like that

>>38898592
Had the vagus ever actually hurt you?

>>38898340
TSA plugged her

She's not even strong it looks like? Big Aaron's qt ex is way stronger

>>38898616
Valgus you stupid fuck, not vagus, lurk more you fucking plebeian noob shit

>>38898627
steroid man

>>38898592
The adductor magnus is a huge and very powerful muscle.
The glute medius is very small in comparison.
Luckily the upper fibers of the glute maximus aid in hip abduction too.
Besides band work, unilateral exercises work the hip abductors well too.
One exercise that also helps prevent shin splints is to step on a platform with one leg, and hold a heavy kettlebell or weight with ther free hanging foot, while making sure to keep the hips even.
Side lying hip abductions (only feet and arm touch ground) look easy, but are really hard on the hip abductors.

>>38898627
realistically, how different do you think your size and strength would be right now if you had never taken exogenous test?

pls try to be objective

>>38898627
*RTS

>>38898627
Lol, yeah, that

>>38898691
I'd probably weigh 3pl8 with 2/3/4 numbers

Meant to quote
>>38898747

>>38898607
Yes

>>38898627

Well she's okay for a junior girl. Won her class I think but she's basically me tier


>>38898616
Yeah twice. Well once. But I aggravated it again. Hurt my hip flexor.

>than it should go up at least 30 more bulking from 105 to 120 and beyond
benching 180 would make it fully worthwhile...

>>38898757
really though, do you have any guess on how your strength and size would be different currently? Obviously it's just speculation but humor me

also how much did you weigh before lifting?

>>38898765
>basically me tier
Yeah, minus any reasonably sized talent pool

>>38898805
give me some steroids, steroid man

>>38898805
I feel like girls are able to hit reasonable numbers for their weight classes quicker than guys are, but then it's a huge grind to improve from their.

>>38898852
>from their
>their

holy fuck look at this idiot, lol opinion discarded

I dropped 205 lbs on the bench to one side to unload the bar on a failed last rep. Wrist hurts in certain positions. No noise or cracks. Should I get it checked out? Just deadlifted 315 overhand for 2 reps. Left wrist is the one that hurts. No physical abnormalities...

>>38898561
Maybe? My hammies are really weak.

>>38898801
Also now that you're fat your wilks wouldn't suffer too much

>>38898982
Just take it easy and ice it. Use some wrist wraps if you have them. Does compressive force hurt?

Candito is a fucking moron, he'll never win a championship again, not because of his genetics which hold 99.99999% of otherpeople back, no not that, its because hes a fucking moron, thats why he will never win a championship again

Wtf I was waiting in the last thread for an hour for you guys to post

Wtf I hate you all now

>>38899033
Why, just because of his diet?

>>38899050
No not diet, just because hes stupid

>>38899059
Why is he stronger than you then?

>>38898067
>Does that mean novices should try to get done sort of athletic base while they are starting/before they start training?
People wiser than myself seem to think so. The Chinese (and Russians?) prescribe different kinds of sports to kids/future lifters, IIRC. Holistic/general development before specific development.

Buda posted some stuff about this as well, and not too long ago either. You could probably find it in the archive.

>>38899068
because of his genetics you fucking idiot i just told you
Candito unironically flunked out of high school and he was taking remedial classes
Kid unironically has a learning disability and id estimate he has an IQ of around 70

>>38899082
I think this is Sean and you admitted you're weaker than a guy who barely benched 3pl8

>>38899098
candito has a higher wilks than anyone in PLG

Just carried dendi in a bout of d o t a 2, feels like my lifting will improve thanks to this.

>>38899109
He still admitted he has a sub 3pl8 bench

>>38899115
Candito benches 350lbs

>>38899132
no

>>38899153
his best is 340 and he's about to hit a peak 350 for nationals

>>38899012
It only hurts in a position like one of racking a front squat or clean on the shoulders, I.e. backwards. Was able to deadlift mixed grip with it underhand for 2 reps.

Will take it easy but the website I read psyched me out telling me that sprains could lead to arthritis, but it doesn't hurt too bad.

this doesnt prepare your fucking body at all what a waste of time

Warmups should be 40-50% physically taxing compared to an actual set and have some rest and reset in between as you would a normal set for psychological factors including reps done

BP
135x5-10 depending on how loose I am or confident I feel
185x3-5
(if necessary) 205x5
WW 225x5x5 or whatever you can manage
(if I fail to hit at least 4 on a set)
205x5

I'm mainly curious how it would affect optimal training for rock collecting slugs like myself who didn't start being very active until after adolescence

not being able to bench because of injury makes training feel so lackluster and short

literally squats/dl and then some bullshit assistance instead of 2+ pressing exercises

"Implement a bcd counter" (a component that normally counts 0 to 9) "with initial value of 5"

you were lazy, didn't eat properly, and tried sporadically for a few weeks at at time
You don't have the right to be a whiny bitch
That's reserved for long term consistent try hards who are still useless like me and isley
You however, are lazy and should stop whining like a bitch

Squatting and benching today lads, but first a day at work, I wanna phone in sick just to go train

>>38901952
Next week. So here's my predictions

Squat: 180 easily unless I fuck up. Probably 185

Bench: 100kg flew through the roof today, at least 110

Deadlift: well I didn't get a single rep at 160 today so I guess -25kg on that one

I just used cuckols calculators on his site and it's making some pretty wild assumptions.

As a 175cm manlel, I should be able to reach around 90kg BW ~12% BF. I'm currently 80 after several months of barely lifting and being injured and shit and I don't think his 9% prediction is very accurate (see pic).

His calculator also predicts that I should be benching upwards of 200kg (my current is probably 120 if that) if I was 'maximally efficient' at my current level of LBM. I call bullshit.

>>38898983
When your hamstrings are weak/stiff you have trouble pushing your hips back and have to hyper extend your spine to compensate. Try widenening your stance on squats and practice touching your toes with a flat back.

>>38898561
wtf is wrong with you?
CLEARLY first and foremost the guy has to learn to brace and start bracing when squatting and THEN, if something is still off, he can focus on fixing the next problem. But what do you do? You fucking start talking about fucking hamstrings.... Why not tell him his head position is wrong or he's gripping the bar too wide? Might as well because those make about as much sense as your "advice".

You guys mind if I ask a noob question? I've been lifting for a couple months and haven't squatted yet, but reading about it made me interested so I tried to do it at home with no weight other than my fat body. Here's how it went.

>be fatty at home
>watch a video on squatting and read a bit about it
>try to squat, go in front of mirror, use broomstick as bar replacement
>heels go up when I go low
>read a bit more, says I should increase space between feet
>weird, already had more than shoulder width and have large shoulders, video said that was already wider than normal
>wide stance anyway, it worked, kind of
>when going low I have to try really hard not to lean forward and my lower back hurts when doing the movement
>my right glute was tensed after it when I went to sleep

My legs are like the middle ones from pic related due to being obese most of my life. Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong? Can't record movement right now cause phone battery is dead.

>>38903977
He admitted that his hamstrings are piss. Adjusting his stance and lrn2 brace would be fine. Do you have shit hamstrings anon, is this why you are mad?

>>38903986
>heels go up when I go low
ankle flexibility

>when going low I have to try really hard not to lean forward
thoracic spine strength and mobility
possible also your head isn't properly over your shoulders and pulls everything else forward

>lower back hurts when doing the movement
probably a weak lower back since you're squatting a lot of weight and your body isn't used to movement
post a video when you can as well as pictures of your posture from the side

>>38904000
His hamstring strength and mobility is irrelevant until he learns to brace properly. When he starts bracing properly THEN he can focus on other issues that may hinder his form or progress.
I'm mad because the one time I see you actually talking ins this thread about something actually related to lifting, you spew nonsense.

>>38904043
How is it nonsense? Tight glutes and hams are related to lower back pain. I was just adding to what he should consider. Next time I'll add bracing in there first.

>>38904022
Alright anon, thank you, will do some research on what you said.
Btw my head position isn't the problem I feel, it is over the shoulders properly.

>ankle flexibility/thoracic spine strength and mobility
Never did anything for those before, so I'll see what exercises I can do to help with that.

>probably weak lower back since you're squatting a lot of weight and your body isn't used to movement
Not being used to the movement is correct, I have to keep all the cues of good form vs bad form in mind when doing it, but I don't know about having a weak lower back, if that's the case is there a way to know and fix it?

In any case if I can't do it properly in a few hours I'll record it, phone is charging. Will also take pics of posture from side.

>>38904058
>How is it nonsense? Tight glutes and hams are related to lower back pain.
Could be, but if someone tells you that they don't brace at all when squatting and that their lower back hurts, do you immediately tell them to stretch their glutes and hams? No you don't. You tell them to learn to brace, before all else.

>>38904110
>Could be

It is. But yeah you're right. However, his post also implied that he knew he should brace. I was adding that his his hamstrings could be an additional factor to consider.

>>38904079
the thing is you might feel as though your head is fine because it's comfortable there but you adjust to what you're used to, chances are really high your head is too far forward but you don't realise because 9/10 people you see will have the problem but since it's so common it seems normal when it isn't, the same rule sort of applies to everything, chances are you are going to have flexibility problems with most things because you won't have done any work on them and if you haven't done work on them you won't have the mobility; you might think you do because you're able to put other parts of your body into hyperflexion (which is what is happening with your lower back [you're inflexible in other areas so your lower back is making up for it]) but you aren't because you actually have to work for it, so when you say you've never done anything for them the unfortunate fact is you'll have to and it'll suck at first but stretching can be fun once you start to see results

>but I don't know about having a weak lower back, if that's the case is there a way to know and fix it?
it'll be strong in the sense it's had to carry weight around in daily life, but now you're trying to make it work in a situation it's uncomfortable in

it'll take time and work but the results make it worthwhile

>>38904147
Alright anon, tried it again in front of the mirror and it's looking better, didn't hurt as much as before. Though I can't yet say it was comfortable it felt a lot more natural today, even with the almost horse stance space between feet. I also understand what you're saying about head position, I notice 98% of people have terrible posture and think it's "normal", that wasn't what I meant. Well, an hour or two from now I'll film it and then we'll be able to tell more accurately if I'm fucking up because of head position, in the mirror it doesn't look like it.

>it'll take time and work but the results make it worthwhile

I'm not worried about the time or work I'll put in, just if I'm using time and work the right way. I'll probably lift for the rest of my life, I only want to know I'm doing it right.
As for results, though they are a great part of my focus, as long as I'm progressing month to month they don't need to meet my expectations.

Thanks again.

>>38904268
head position is more of a problem in front squats than back squats but it can still be a contributing factor, since a head too far forward can put your lower traps in a weak position making it harder for your back to get properly tight

wide stance is a bandaid fix for bad ankle flexibility but the problem is you probably don't have the hip flexibility either so as i said your body will now try to make up for the inflexibility in other areas as well as making it harder for you to stay upright which isn't as big of a problem if you're doing low bar but you should never only get the flexibility you need but always improving

>>38904304
Preach. He'll probably find that his squat will become more quad dominant as a result if he doesn't which will significantly reduce the potential of his squat.

Unless you're obese or twink you shouldn't do anything. Gain weight slowly over the years so you can put on muscle mass but don't do a dreamer bulk just so you can """""fill out""""" an weight class by becoming fat.

Likely your adductors are tight and your abductors are weak. Look up a fix for knocked knees and start working on that.
