nice OP
When I push the bar down in the benchpress so that it goes towards below my nipples I often feel how I have to force it to stop moving that direction again - basically the bar goes infront if my elbows and I kind if jerk it back under.
Is there any solution to this or do I just have to develop a better feeling for how hard I push the bar torwards my feet?

>putting NSFW porn in the plg OP
Mods deleted it, genius.
>>40240774
What are you talking about? If you read the rules you would realize that the OP was a NSFW image which is distinctively not allowed on blue boards, and so it was deleted.
>>40240713
That is a good meme. Mind if I steal it?

Interesting finding; see if you could publish it in the Philosophical Proceedings, my dear chap. Make sure to do it before Sir Newton does.
>>40240713
>I'm not in there
O-oh
>>40240773
I don't really understand the problem(english isn't my first language) but going down slower lets you keep better control over the weight. It all comes down to keeping tight and learning by experience how to control the bar.
>>40240811
It's for fags anyway
>no Sean or dino
>>40240773
Sounds like you need a higher arch. The reason it feels awkward to lower the bar towards your nipples is that the current horizontal distance is too large, so it creates a big moment arm.
Arch more, and widen your grip to at least pinkies at the PL ringmarks (not the WL ones).
>>40240836
seans there
>daily reminder to isolate abs
Finally managed to superset some abs work with bb fluff at the end of my workout.
I have to do this due to back pain but I think I'll incorporate more cool-down stuff inbetween biceps.

starting sheiko tomorrow for the first time what should I expect
got a total inflation of 25kg btw

>>40240904
Yeah I hate that too. Can't even finger myself in the showers
>>40240902
Which Sheiko? And maybe cut down on the inflation? What's the spread of the inflation? 5/10/10?
>>40240927

>>40240942
M I C R O P L A T E S
>>40240935
Idk, obviously YMMV, but I feel that the squatting is already pretty hard on it, and the bench and deadlifting is fairly easy. I'd say don't inflate the squat or deadlift just yet, wait and see how they feel after your first couple sessions.
>>40240942
I added 7.5kg to my OHP by doing bench only and feel on top of the world.
Still prefer OHP dough

>>40240980
The first time I ran c6w I added 25lbs to my bench. You can do anything when you're weak.

Your mileage may vary
>>40240942
Just ohp more
>>40240966
The train is going straight into the sun though. It's a joke about everyone falling for the meme and dying, except norsie who jumped off the train kekk.
Paul is gonna add you and the people that's missing to the version 2.0.
>>40240964
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IgFwiCApH7E
>>40240838
Yeah, that's probably it.
I just placed my feet flat on the ground for the first time, always thought I'm lacking mobility for that.
But it atually works, was just unused to the high tension in the quads right from the start.
Feels a lot better that way because if just pushes into my upper back insanely hard and brings my chest higher.
>>40241006
Now that I give it a second look only the squatting may be hard on the days where you squat twice in a session
Deadlifting and bench looks p easy though
>>40241023
The joke was lost on me, but now I see.
I kek'd audibly.
New and improved.
My depression is so bad lol

I did 232.5kg after it but it was high
>>40241399
I hope moo dies
Do you need to necesarilly bulk to get stronger or it depends on the weight you are on right now? Lets say I get to 225 at 160lbs and I stall, in that case I need to gain weight to break the plateau for sure. But lets say I'm 180lbs and 225 then would I need to necesarilly bulk to gain strenght?
>>40241561
can do it with maintenance but bulking just makes strength gains easier
>>40241561

>>40241633
The loaders you mean? They don't need to spot the DL
>>40241561
you can get stronger, but you'll never get as strong as you would if you bulked, and your max potential will be much lower.
>>40241660
Not entirely through, theres a cap and a point of diminishing returns
If hes twinkmode, then yes I agree he should bulk
>>40240732

Powerlifting records should be reset every five years
Surely we will just get to the point where they are all unbeatable.
Who is moo?
>>40241561
You can get stronger while not gaining weight, but gaining muscle mass is the most important factor of getting stronger both short and long term.
>>40241746
Yeah. Like Athletics' female World Records from the 80s that were done by doped superwomen
>>40241753

You'd think so but then another CYC or Sumner comes along.

>>40241759
if your a novice, just learning the movement and your body adapting to the work is far more important than gaining muscle mass. But afterwards muscle mass is the most important.

If I were to do under grip bench press on a low incline how hard would it be to translate back to normal bench press?
I'm doing this for chest aesthetic purposes. Or should I just do low incline bench?
that's a retard variation. just do incline bench or an incline kind of flye (cable is probably your best bet)
bench, incline bench and flyes are all you need desu. use flyes where incline bench is convenient (e.g. if you just did a good amoujt of heavy bench and want more chest work, your triceps will be too tired to use your chest effectively on incline IMO, so just so flyes)

thanks izlee
how on earth is clarence kennedy so strong anyway
I wrote my own programming a while back. I was going over the numbers and comparing it to Sheiko.
Just realized that I am stronger now than I was then and I'm only doing one third of the volume that I was on Sheiko.
Plus it's more flexible for higher rep range work and more variation.
If you guys get tired of the Boris mean, you should try writing your own programming sometime. You'll learn a lot

Chalk if your gym allows it. Don't need anything special. I have a small baggy of chalk I bought off amazon for $8 that's lasted me 6 months by now.

Me too man wanna talk?
Is it just depression or something else too?
>>40244375
I'm not opposed to talking, I just know it will attract a lot if negative attention talking here. But who cares I guess lel.
Definitely stems from something else, it is depression. I've just been super lonely since I was 14, many years later and my situation hardly improved. It's just taken its toll on me, doesn't help that I'm a reserved person as a result.
I do it to myself.
>>40244418
I can feel your pain, friend.
The loneliness hits me hard sometimes too. I have some "friends" but I can't really connect to them and I feel like they hate me.
Don't just lay in bed though. If you're really feeling depressed and unmotivated, just say fuck it and go all in with lifting. 7 days a week, high as fuck volume. What've you got to lose? It'll boost your mood, you might not make strength gains but at least it'll help you mentally

>loneliness hits me hard sometimes too. I have some "friends" but I can't really connect to them and I feel like they hate me.
Yep, same, except I don't have to think, they just tell me kek. Which makes me question why I'm such an unlikable character.
It's not so much that I'm unliked, it's why. I just don't know why...
I pretty much just study, lift and listen to music right now. That is my life. Can't even be bothered to run a program, haven't been bothered to do any proper training, just what I want as that makes me happiest, but it's all a temporary fix and what not.
Pretty cool song, have one for yourself

>>40245442
>>40245459
Doing some cardio and sticking to a set sleep schedule can help.

So can smoking some weed which is what I just did

Luckily tomorrow (today) should be not too hard, only doubles at 80%.
Do have tons of classes and a presentation tomorrow though.
>>40245465
I'm in bed before midnight every day and I've recently started doing cardio three times a week.

>>40245488
That shit just happens sometimes too. Honestly when that happens to me I'll take some NyQuil or zquil and go back to bed pretty easily.
>>40245530
I would rather not destroy my body by imbibing drugs, besides I'd have to wake up in 3 hours to go to class anyway
>>40245552
If it's not a common occurrence there's no reason why you'd destroy your body taking some over the counter sleep aids. ZMA and melatonin are also great for helping you sleep.
>>40245565
I don't take any drugs whatsoever, not even ibuprofen. I only take certain vitamins.
>>40245465
I do stick to a schedule, sleep just got fucked up last night for whatever reason
>>40245479
Not too bad at all, good luck
>>40245516
>Feeling refreshed after 8 hours
This has never happened to me once in my entire life. I need like 10 hours minimum to feel like I'm refreshed/recovered.
>>40245600
I can guarantee you'll be able to sleep like a baby after a night with me Bobby
>>40245596
>zma and melatonin are drugs
man my multi vitamin must be a drug too then
>>40245613
Frig off he's mine
>>40245650
Taking melatonin supplements are literally equivalent to taking exogenous hormones. That definitely counts as drugs in my book.
I didn't address ZMA on the other hand, that's fine, though either way I was talking about the sleeping medicine.
>>40245664
You snooze you lose faggot lmao

I'm not saying it's equally bad, I'm just saying I'd rather not fuck with my hormones and brain chemistry.

>>40245864
>Taking melatonin supplements are literally equivalent to taking exogenous hormones.
Yes you are.
Spot the difference:
- Metalonin
>is produced naturally by the body
>doesn't enhance performance (can actually be detrimental)
>brings no benefit if taken in excess, only detriments and risks
>if you have deficiency (due to night shifts or lights), it helps get your sleep back to NORMAL
- Vitamin D
>is produced naturally by the body
>enhances performance, increases strength, speed and power, and enhances muscle hypertrophy
>reduces risk of stress fractures and major breaks in athletes
>brings no benefit it taken in excess, only detriments and risks
>if you have deficiency, taking extra by diet or sun exposure highly improves your performance
- Testosterone
>is produced naturally by the body
>enhances performance, increases strength, speed and power, and enhances muscle hypertrophy
>can increase the risk of injuries
>brings many benefits (and risks) if taken in excess, and continues to enhance performance even on very high dosages
>if you have deficiency, taking extra will highly improve your performance
>>40245669
Tip top kek desu
>>40245879
I never get sick, but whenever I did as a kid, I would never go to the doctor and just take bed rest, works fine.
>>40245893
Vitamin D is found in food, melatonin is synthesized from cow brains using degenerate jew magicks, that's the difference.
>>40245915
I appreciate the "k" in "magicks" it made it feel very authentically autistic.
>>40245915
Cow organs = food
Last I checked, brain is an organ.
Only reason we don't eat brains is because of prions.
So yes, both melatonin and vitamin D can be supplemented with food.
No difference here.
>>40245613
Hank p-please
>>40245664
W-who is this
>>40245915
Uhh excuse you we could get organic melatonin now shitlord
>>40245893
>not injecting all of these substances
>>40245944
Your body doesn't make vitamin D though, it needs it from an outside source.
>>40245937
Enjoy your antibiotics, antidepressants, birth control goyim, meanwhile I'll stay healthy and with a functioning immune and endocrine system
Reminder that in 1927, vitamin D was target of doping controversies and used to enhance athletic performance.
And in fact, they weren't even taking pills. They were using SUNLAMPS to NATURALLY produce more Vitamin D.
Melatonin was never target of any doping controversy and never used to enhance athletic performance (at least not directly).
Defending Vitamin D and attacking Melatonin is pure hypocrisy and lack of understanding.
>>40245964
>YOUR BODY DOESN'T MAKE VITAMIN D THOUGH
Holy fucking kek
Skipping highschool classes much?
>>40245964
>Your body doesn't make vitamin D though
But what about your penis? That's a type of D and it gets hard like a mineral.
>>40245974
Melatonin is secreted from the pineal gland, you can't make vitamin D without either food or exposure to UVB, I don't see the equivalence
>>40245964
>antibiotics
Haven't taken them since I had my wisdom teeth removed.
>antidepressants
You must have me confused with a hormonecuck.
>birth control
Sorry, I like being able to fuck my fiance raw and not have to worry about anything ever.
You know you can take shit as long as you're responsible about it, right?
>>40246002
good goy
>>40245992
You can't produce melatonin without non-exposure to UVB.
You can't produce vitamin D without exposure to UVB.
Really makes you think...
>>40245896

No it doesn't, it has directly and permanently affected your brain.

You just fell for the Jew meme too hard.
>>40246143
What about if you live in an area or have a job where you can't get away from the lights, so your body doesn't produce enough melatonin?
HMMMMMMMMMM REALLY MAKES YOU THINK.

Basically yes. Just half the price
>>40246156
Then you have a lifestyle issue caused by the same problems that cause the need for jew medicine.

Same in your case, except:
- someone taking melatonin supplements will have no side effects
- you getting all your vitamin D from cod liver will intoxicate you with hypervitaminosis A and you'll have severe side effects
Really makes you think.
>>40246183
>implying I'll get hypervitaminosis A from taking two swigs of cod liver oil a day
ok dude
>>40246182
Well, wisdom tooth extraction reveals a developmental issue. I don't know why it's affected you, but you have one.

>>40246245
IMPLYING THAT'S ENOUGH.
Unless you work directly under the sun (behind glasses doesn't count) and don't shower at least for a couple of hours after spending time under the sun, you are 95% sure deficient in vitamin D.

This isn't true.
http://www.cbc.ca/news/health/vitamin-d-deficiency-1.3845085
>>40246298
>They estimated that, on average, people need about 400 international units of vitamin D per day
Here's the problem.
400 IU is nothing. In fact, they don't even call it "recommended intake" like they do with everything else, they call it AI or "adequate intake" because they actually don't have enough evidence that 400 IU is enough. They just know it's the bare minimum to be "fine". And do they actually know that? The AI for kids used to be 200 IU, they have since doubled that because they realised their AI isn't actually enough. Do they actually know that 400 is enough?
In fact, in Russia they have tested with athletes and found that you can have increase the 100m dash speed up to 7.5% by supplementing extra vitamin D to the athletes.
Athletes are often deficient in vitamin D.
There are studies still being done right now trying to FIND OUT if higher intake has health benefits. So basically we don't even know if the AI is enough, they're just guessing it is.
Not only that, but to have hypervitaminosis D, you need an intake of over 50k IU daily.
And studies have been shown that daily intake of 4k IU is completely fine.
Now, I'm not implying we all need 4k IU. But looking at all the evidence we have so far, it's obvious that there are benefits, at least for athletes, for an intake above the AI of 400 IU.
>>40246298
Also, it's pretty obvious that their concern in that article is the MONEY being spent on vit D blood tests.
They don't even mention what blood levels are fine and what would be good.
They are literally telling the population to get a random "minimum" and fuck off and stop spending so much government money taking the blood tests.
In fact, at no point in the article they mention any downsides to supplementing with vit D.
Prioritie$ of the health indu$try, of cour$e.
>>40246423
I just checked my bottle of cod liver oil, it says there is 10mcg of vit D per 5ml (i.e. ~400IU) and I drink about 40ml so that's 3200IU from cod liver oil.
There is also sunlight for 24 hours during summer where I live, so getting enough sun in summer is easy.
>>40246504
Oh wait, you're taking... supplements.
You're literally taking bottled supplements.
Wow, you're a fucking hypocrite.
And btw, 4 servings of cod liver oil has almost 100% of the recommended intake of vitamin A.
Enjoy the toxic side effects of hypervitaminosis A.
So let's recap:
- You're buying bottled cod liver oil from the "supplement jews"
- You are supplementing a performance enhancing substance
- You are putting your health in risk
Let's compare with melatonin:
- Buying bottled melatonin from the "pharmacy jews"
- Not a performance enhancing substance
- Actually improves people's health
Really makes you think...
>>40246573
It's not a supplement, it's boiled cod livers.
I would make it myself if it wasn't for industrial fishing reducing levels near the shore.
And I'm pretty sure I can handle the vitamin A, that RI is based on a 50kg person and I'm 115kg.
>>40246613
>It's not a supplement, it's boiled cod livers.
So... literally a supplement.
>I'm pretty sure
Are you a doctor?
>>40246637
No, but I've been taking it for more than 10 years and it's done no harm.
>>40246648
You've been taking SUPPLEMENTS for OVER 10 YEARS to ENHANCE YOUR ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE and you're complaining about people taking a supplement a few times to improve their health and be able to actually sleep like a normal person, with no effects to their athletic performance besides the sleep.
Do you even hear yourself? You're complaining about "pharmacy jews" while feeding the "supplements industry jews" for over 10 years.
10 YEARS.
lmao @ your life
stay c u c k e d boy.
>>40246673
No, I've taken it for over 10 years because there's 0 hours of sun in winter.
>>40246694
And what about the people taking melatonin because they have to work at night and have literally 0 hours of night time with no artificial lights?
Oh no, don't answer. I know the answer. They are "being c ucked by the pharmacy jews" and "literally not natty".
Reminder that you're taking something that enhances athletic performance and the money goes directly to the supplements industry.
They are taking something that doesn't enhance performance, merely helps them live a normal life, and the money goes to (gasp!) supplements industry.
Keep looking for excuses to defend your hypocritical behaviour. Might as well just start roiding, you're not natty anyways (>taking PED supplements >natty).
>>40246730

It sounds like... some poor hypocritical boy being c ucked by the supplements industry and taking literal performance-enhancing-substances for 10 years.
>>40246809
I've never claimed it's not natty, just that it's dumb jew shit that could mess up your brain, not a risk I'd take. It's also used for a meme disorder.
I see it can be found in some foods, but not at therapeutic levels, unlike you know, cod livers.
>>40246856
>mess up your brain
Citation needed.
>cod liver oil
Oh you mean the meme chemical extracted from an animal organ to treat your lifestyle disorder caused by living in degenerate countries / degenerate lifestyle that doesn't include plenty of sun light, that also messes up with your entire body's chemistry and enhances athletic performance.

I was merely using his own logic against himself.
In my opinion, using the word "degenerate" unironically is laughable.
It's the type of insult that makes me think less of the person saying it. Just like using white/black or man/woman as insult.
Also, the arctic is a beautiful part of the world. I'd love to visit it.

I think it's a fine alternative for TM, for early-intermediate lifters looking for more accessories and GPP.
But I tend to prefer TM due to its specificity and focus on the main lifts, and also being easy to customise.
