I don't think the sleeves are gonna fix your problems. My advice is start doing some wall squats to learn how to properly sit back during squats and re-think your cues to push out knees more.

Check out this:

Sleeves are more for comfort but aren't gonna fix big problems.

shoulders sore/a little pain after widening bench grip but bench went up like 10kg

what to do

My lifts are going up which is good. My bodyweight is going up too which is ok but I keep getting sad my bw ratios are going nowhere or backwards slightly. I know it's a bit stupid but it still annoys me.

>>40849225
don't worry about it. bw multipliers are for twinks and casuals.

Anyone excperienced with elbow pain? I got it from squatting, this I am 100% sure of since it flares up when I squat but I don't notice it during any other lift. Seems like tendonitis. How do I get better again?

I was thinking of taking a week off squatting and doing everything else like normal, could that be enough?

>>40848892
>>40848890
I can't say it, to anybody. Its something that will eat me inside until the day I die. And I am suffering hard.

>thumbs over bar
>widen grip
happened to me while i was already doing this tho
i swapped to ssb for a while and ended up hurting something else anyway and having to take time off, was okay by the time i came back

so you could try ssb if you have one, high bar if not and quite possibly you might need to just rest it

How much more can you low bar squat vs high bar squat?

I haven't done low bar in ages, but due to knee issues I gave it a shot. I hit 315x3 and it was very easy compared to high bar. Thinking of dropping high bar for a bit and doing low bar instead.

>>40849624
Alright, I'll try to widen my grip yet a little bit. I already have my thumbs over the bar, never managed to wrap them around.

Weird thing is I had this problem before and it went away when I corrected my grip to how I do it now.. Don't have SSB, but I guess I can try high-bar for my lighter sets so I get some extra rest at least.

>>40849702
could also be a shoulder mobility issue affecting things but i was never really able to do much about it so cant tell you anything else

shoo shoo pain before each set helps too

Please talk to me
I really want fast plg back. I miss having friends.

>>40849732
Shoulder mobility can fuck me over? That could be it then, my shoulder has sunk a little lately because I've been sitting so much and I stopped doing mobility exercises.

What are good shoes for (lowbar) squats and deadlifts under 80 euro?

What's more specific, closegrip or slingshot bench?

>>40849980

I think the Adidas Powerlifts are about that price (don't know exact exchange rates). Relatively low heel compared to pretty much every shitty 3/4 inch heeled shoe on the market make it better for lowbar squats and all deadlifts.

You might theoretically get the Sabo deadlift shoe (about the same price as the Powerlift, if I recall correctly) and try squatting in that. But I can't guarantee that a flat heeled shoe would be good for squatting in.

>>40849624

What the fuck is SSB and why don't you retards understand how to properly use acronyms?

if your bench isn't progressing at that low a weight you probably just aren't eating like you should be

>>40855555
What about if my other lifts are progressing?

After ages of troubleshooting my bench I came out with 2 problems, one of which is an easy fix(shitty setup) but the other one is a bit more troublesome.

Basically my right arm hangs down on the horizontal plane(like it wants to be closer to my torso) and the only way I have found to fix it is to rotate my right shoulder a little bit back. Could this cause problems in the future and is there a better way to fix this?

Note to all the novice lifters

Stop overthinking, please, for your own sake

Your lifts wont go up because you are weak and lack muscle and probably arent doing enough volume or eating enough

Stop worrying and looking for a silly reason as to why it wont go up, most of you simply have no muscle

Im running my own interpretation of conjugate and about 80% of my programming now is assistance work (no im not recommending this before anyone starts) and im getting stretch marks everywhere because despite being 110, i had a hell of a lot of room for muscle growth because its never been a focus for me, and funnily enough my lifts are going up, feeling easier and im the least sore in my joints and back ive been in ages

Stop worrying, do more reps, eat and grow, enjoy the process

Note to faggot: Most novice lifters form is shit. Pretty impossible for your lifts to not skyrocket as a novice if your form is halfway decent.

>>40855788
>making gains as an unnatty

>>40855627
You should be rotating both shoulders down/back during your bench setup

>when you're knee deep in the middle of a so-far successful cut and have dreams about pizza and donuts

Why

>>40855788

Isn't this the mindset with the just eat more bro SS advice?

What do you find to be more detrimental, unsuitable programming or not eating massive amounts?

>fahve bah fave

>>40855931
I'm not garagebro(obviously) but programming or rather not training enough or not taking the training seriously is more detrimental ime.

>>40855822
Never said ignore technique, halfway decent form is a given
>>40855845
Made more gains in 9 weeks on a cruise dose than i did in 10 months on test deca and orals, less gear better training is always the way forward

>>40855931
Im saying learn what you can ignore as a beginner, different things take precedence at different times
Id say both are just as bad, you need to eat for your goals, and i think novice programming in general is inefficient
No need to eat masses over maintenance, how you train is important but how much effort you put into getting your weak points better is more important

>>40856130
What current novice/intermediate programming would you recommend as a template or something more efficient than most?

I understand that to be most efficient you would probably need to address weak points but I'd like to know if there are any go to programming you would recommend.

>>40851112
so this is how you get fat... thanks!

Ok who made this thread?

>>>40853756

>>40856164
Its hard to say if im honest, speaking to people who know a lot more than me and have success with coaching people and knowing myself what works within a programme i should be able to recommend but i struggle to put it together in a way thats both manageable and understandable for a novice. Like i look at my own training and i know why every lift is in there and its purpose because i know where im weak and i know how phases of the lifts feel and what needs addressing

I couldnt write something for someone without watching them, preferably in person but as a general i really like the look of 5th set by swede burns, you can google the pdf its on another chan site iirc, training days have
Main movement
Mechanically similar movement
Assistance

So example a bench day if you were weak in the triceps would be
Bench
Close grip bench
Dips
Face pulls

I like it because it gives you templates but after the main movement you can customise the other work to suit where you are weak

Do you guys think it's possible to progress from 60kg to 100kg working sets with 3x5 twice a week?

>>40856399
everything is possible with juice. You can even beat canditoes total in a year, just do copious amounts of test

>>40856450
What about this? Idk if this is retarded progression?

How hard can it be for 5kg weekly for 2 months?

>>40854911
Youll be 100% fine dont stress over one day

I can't figure out if I'm doing my bench set up correctly.
Do you lean back on the shoulder blades sticking out pinched together or more on the upper shoulders.

>>40856558
Shoulder blades back and down. You dig your traps into the bench

How bad is it to take a few days off when you just feel stressed or rundown? Like 3/4 days

>>40856616

might also just try decreasing weights by 5-10% and getting the work done

NEAT, good luck Saturday, tripfriend. I did my 1st meet this weekend in Ft. Worth and went 9/9, hitting 195/125/227.5. Squat and DL were small ~5lb PRs. Bench is sad, but working on it. After this training cycle + prep + meet, I have a better idea of how to train for the next one.

Some people were telling me I could have picked heavier weights for squat/dead, but I'm glad I stayed conservative. I had a good time. I was more exhausted from standing around waiting than from actual lifting.

Oh, and got to meet and chat with Candito, which was pretty cool. Chill dude.

You're probably just tired.
>>40857259
>>40857273
Sure it's not to keep doing sets until the RPE indicates he's reached 4-6% fatigue, which according to pic related (example table from RTS/Mike) is an RPE of 9.5-10?

>>40856692
which one, panzer or kermit?

>>40857073

Good luck lad.

I have short arms and I've never maxed deadlifts without rounding my back. Ever.

I have done straight back pulls with low weights obviously.

Is this simply due to having poor deadlift leverages, or possibly a preventable thing?

Is there any downside to doing close grip bench only?
I can't physically do wide grip bench anymore without severe pain in my hand.

>>40857431
Straight back maximal conventional deadlifts are a myth

>>40857431
It's absolutely preventable

t. person with absolutely shit pulling proportions

>>40857454
How close? IME it's harder to keep shoulder blades retracted, you'll be weaker, and it can be rougher on your shoulders due to increased range of motion.

>>40857503
How do you dead lift? I have the worst deadlift proportions known to man, super short arms, lockout at dick even if I hold the smooth part of the bar rofl.

Strangely my deadlift is a lot stronger than my bench tho

About thumb distance away from centre smooth part

>>40857522
You've gotta deal with the fact that you'll need more knee flexion and lat strength than the average bear if keeping a flat back is important to you.
I have to initiate with my hips pretty low.

I HAVE NEGLECTED ARMS FOR TOO LONG

>tfw can only strict bb curl 35kg for a few sets of 8

50kg curls when???

>>40857549
That's pretty narrow, basically everything I said is gonna apply.

>>40857550
I am pretty weak with low hips, are you sure?
I actually find dead lifting in heels comfortable and I guess that's provably because of the knee flexion and lower hips.

I'll try that more I guess.

>>40857550
>knee flexion
>hips low
Neither of these are bad, but neither has any effect on flat vs flexed spine. All they do is give you a slightly more vertical torso angle in the setup. But even high hip starting position, like a SLDL, can have a perfectly flat back.

Angle of torso =/= rigidity of torso.

>best way to increase deadlift

Do strongman

Ur welcome

Used too much weight on my wrist roller and broked it :-(

>>40857781
I would argue that a more vertical spine is easier to keep rigid personally.
>>40857762
I don't doubt you're weaker that way. My deadlift is not good. But if you're more worried about a flat back than a somewhat stronger pull it's worth a try at least.

if I didn't have time to deadlift yesterday after squats because the gym closed early

should I dl today, when otherwise I'd normally only be doing bench

or not bother

>>40858015
Do bench and dl, should be fine.
Squats day after dl can be rough, but in my experience dl day after squats are fine. TSA intermediate program has them that way always.

So I posted yesterday about my tendonitis. Today it got worse and no matter how I held the bar while squatting, it flared up. So bad I couldn't do my bench afterwards. Should I take the week off? What do I do next week then, do I just take this week then?

>>40858083
Elbow tendies? If so I got rid of mine by only squatting high bar, benching with a close grip and doing a shit ton of hammer curls. The pain stayed with me for two weeks but it eventually went away after doing this

okay, so i can't justify spending 300 dollars on a belt.

Anyone know any affordable 10cm belts?

>>40858103
Titan el toro lever belt was like 80 bucks and it's held strong for 2 years now

>>40858083
Yo dude Ive had (still have if I dont watch out) the same problem.

1. You gotta work on your shoulder mobility
2. Take time off if it gets too painful if you keep pressing it, it will only take longer to recover
3. I recommend you try highbar squatting for a while and let your elbows recover so you can continue benching while doing shoulder dislocations with a band every training

idk why I numbered this shit

>>40858101
Yes, elbow. Alright, I could try that then, thanks for the tip.

Inner or outer, elbow or forearm?

>>40858103
I've used the Gasp training belt and I really liked it.
It's 10 cm.

>>40858103
strengthshop or inzer depending where you live

>>40858128
Alright, shoulder mobility is probably part of the issue.


>>40858135
On the outside, located in elbow beaming up into the shoulder and slightly down into the forearm.

>>40858134
try wearing a compression cuff on your forearm
this helped me a lot also
