DC claims that they improve recovery and make the muscle grow bigger (he keeps citing some study on stretching bird wings). I can feel the recovery effect, but I don't know about the size gains.

I'm not actually doing too bad at the moment. Best squat and (sumo) dl were 425/495 at 200lb after project momentum. I've had a couple bad weeks, but I hit 365x5 and 425x5 on squat/dead a couple weeks back and I'm in the low-mid 190s bw recently.

right now I'm just kind of unmotivated seeing as how the meet I was gonna do in october got canceled, so I'm just kind of yologramming. gonna do a strongman meet next spring and might try and get back into the 200s for that.

>>42817969
Good, then I retract my question and am glad to hear.

I'm not glad however to hear about you being demotivated. I can heavily relate, especially after laying in bed for a full 30 hours or whatever.

Best of luck though, hope you figure it out.

Just to add, when you first posted that webm and someone pointed out that you begin the press before locking out your knees, I tried push press the following day with that in mind and hit a 10kg PR. Good shit that was

>>42817839
clean with your back, not your arms. your arms will obviously bend at some point, but the first part of the clean is similar to a very fast deadlift, straight arms etc. in your weebum your elbows are bent as soon as you get off the ground.
don't catch the bar like that at the top of the pull and then straighten out, you'll destroy your wrists if you keep doing it. pull harder, and the bar will come in the right position to press.
also push press is ghey lol

I've been waking up 3-4 times at night, I just roll over and go back to sleep. Doesn't seem to be worse than regular sleep, recovery is good. Am I going to die?

In theory yes. It's best if you're able to make it 3 days every week and don't go on consecutive days, but if you're able to make to through everything without too much added difficulty at the end you should have the same results.

So that's definitely spoiled my palette

How to trigger PLG

>>42821095
Impressive. Weird how her deadlift is so weak when it's a big part of crossfit.

>>42821201
women have long legs short arms 99% of the time

>>42817551
oh good thats tiny

>>42821238
There's a picture of her you know. Also long legs is a deadlift advantage because of a shorter hip to shoulder lever. She looks like she has short femurs.

heard too many horror stories about good mornings

can/should i replace them with RDLs?

>>42821300
the only factor in the deadlift is the arm length, longer arms=better deadlift

torso length is compensated by a more upright position

>>42821324
That's just completely untrue. The best deadlifters are historically the ones with the shortest torso. Look at Lamar Gant's world record in the 60kg class, yeah he has long arms but the legs completely offset the advantage of being upright due to longer arms, and his torso is horizontal when he reaches his sticking point. Once the bar is off the ground arm length becomes practically irrelevant and the most important and limiting factor is hinging at the hip.

>>42821095
I doubt any crossfitter is clean

Btw why do you think that people have success with sumo? Sumo artificially creates the upright position and gives the person ''longer'' arms due cutting leg ROM. I'm not saying a short torso doesnt help, it helps if you have long arms, but long arms help with the deadlift anyhow. Being bentover always creates a longer leverarm than being upright but of course due someones individual mechanics it might not be possible

>short legs
>long torso
>long arms
This is the best build for powerlifting, squat and diddlies will be great and bench will suck but thats ok since the first 2 contribute the most to the total anyway

>stall on squats on novice level forever
>keep injuring my knees
>patellar tendonitis
>think I figure out why
>knees bounce forward at the bottom of my squat
>slow the fuck down so my knees dont bounce forward
>do some dumb exercises my physio told me
>knees feel great
>squat catches up with all my other lifts and even surpasses them
>can actually powerlift now
>right knee starts givin me that ole tendonitis feeling

If this doesn't go away when I warm up I'm probably gonna break down and cry in the gym cause this past year has been the best of my life since I got rid of the tendonitis. I can't handle this again. Please.

>>42820719
oww mine back

>>42821459
Do you take deload weeks?
I got tendonitis from overtraining on Texas Method. Now I do different programs with deloads every 4 weeks and haven't had any issues

>>42821481
No. Switched from a program without deloads to one now. Deload is planned in 3 weeks. I'm 2 weeks in. Do I just take a light week and start the program over or soldier on

>>42821446
Sumo is a huge advantage for short legs and long arms though. The whole controversy behind sumo is that it killed the advantage of long legged lifters having better deadlifts than short legged lifters, who have better squats. In the context of your original claim, a woman having long legs and short arms would have a strong bench, weak squat and average-strong deadlift depending on arm length.

What do you think the advantage of arms is beyond getting a better starting position and therefore reducing ROM (same advantage as sumo)? Lamar's ROM is practically a full 90 degrees in the most impressive lift he ever did. Chimp arms are only an advantage as long as you have chimp legs, the longer your arms are in proportion to your legs, the lower your ROM is. In Lamar's case, his torso was what gave him a mechanical advantage, his arms only evened out the mechanical disadvantage of long legs which increase ROM. Plus you also have to consider that proportionally long legs means proportionally more muscle mass on the legs when compared to upper body due to muscle belly length and whatnot, which means a higher percentage of your bodyweight goes to lifting the weight, so long legs might be a mechanical disadvantage, but when they proportionally make your torso shorter AND they allow you to build more leg mass, it becomes an advantage.

>>42821505
Do the deload week now, and then start the program over

>>42821520
>a woman having long legs and short arms would have a strong bench
well not really since women have no upperbody strength
>, weak squat and average-strong deadlift depending on arm length
also weak diddly there arent too many women with long arms thats mostly a male thing.

also interesting point in your second paragraph, i'll put more thought into this and see if i can come up with a counterargument

>>42821589
>not really
Obviously you take into account that she's a woman. When I say "strong bench" I mean proportional to women in the same weight class. Plus, she does have a pretty strong bench. 140/95/157.5 SBD are totally reasonable proportions for a man.

>want to start competing
>check local meet results
>there was literally not a single competitor in my weight class for juniors
>there were 3 competitors in seniors for the weight class

pretty discouraging but at least I can without context flaunt winning my weight class

>>42821520
Why are long legs and a short torso good for DL? I have this and it results in a bad position mechanically to start due to being very horizontal.

>>42821915
dude, paint it out on a piece of paper or something and think again.
also long legs means long femurs

>>42821962
ofc its possible. I just wanted to say that while short femurs are a plus for squats long femurs can be an advantage for conventional deadlifting. Talking about the legs like they are only one length ignoring their own proportions seemed inadequate

>>42822047
how are long femurs advantageous for a deadlift? i don't see it

longer femurs would force your hips back more and make your back angle more horizontal

Chris chan bar is by far the best

Not even debatable

>>42822116
When we say long femurs we mean proportionally long femurs, which makes your torso shorter.

But this morphology lends itself to sumo deadlifts principally.

>>42822171
facewise she looks pretty feminine despite the roiduse

>>42822161
Not really, sumo is far more dependent on mobility and joint structure than anything else. But even if it did lend itself to sumo, it's an advantage for any kind of hip hinge move.

I like how they look.

>>42822220
But USAPL is an IPF member and thus competes directly with the member organizations of the EPF et. al.

They also happen to dominate right now because they also have the laxest possible anti-doping program only shying away from outright cheating like several ex-USSR and ME countries.

>>42822228
What shoe size are you? I saw a sale on Rogue for adipowers that are only 125 freedom bucks, there are some floating around on ebay for the same price, but no sizes between 8 and 12.5 US.

>>42822301
I'm size 13 US but I dont live in America. I just found more Romaleo 2s for 175 euros shipped to my house... So I might just get more

>>42822291
if you got less fat your wilks would probably go up a fair bit desu

>>42822322

For competition's sake, I'd have to cut down to 205 lbs, which would certainly decrease my lifts, and I'd rather struggle towards a 300 kg squat or a 600 lbs deadlift than care about some number arising from an arbitrary formula.

>>42822319

I doubt they're not legit though, only 5 negative reviews in over 100k. One of the best ratios I've ever seen.

Also, make sure you check the adidas size guide in CM, because a size US10/UK9 reebok shoe is 28cm while a size US10/UK9.5 adidas shoe is 27.1cm. You might need a 13.5/14

He's like 140kgs by 3pl8 bench he meant he can do push ups lmoaa

Happy 9/11 memory day Americans

>>42822432
I mean unless you've got a wide as fuck foot and you can't get a snug fit, you can't go wrong with Adipowers. They're just straight up a good shoe. Even if you prefer the Romaleos it's not like you're ever going to hate Adipowers. They're too similar. Also, if size 13 legacy lifters felt good, you should definitely go for 13.5 or even 14 on the Adipowers. Rebook size US13 is a 31cm long shoe, while adidas US13 is a 29.7cm long shoe. The chart I'm looking at says adidas 14.5 is 31cm exactly, but I doubt the difference is that huge.

>>42822434

The fuck are you talking about? Typing this, I'm just a touch over the 105 kg limit. If I wanted to lose an appreciable amount of weight, for the sake of competition, I'd have to cut down to the 93 kg class.

I would rather stay at 105 kg, because I lift more that way.

>>42822725
There's literally nothing wrong with lifting at 105kg. If you don't buy into wilks and you still want to cut, you're a hypocrite.

>If you don't buy into wilks and you still want to cut, you're a hypocrite.
Well you know, one could conceivably cut for general health and conditioning as well.

>>42822836
Read the rest of the coversation. Also if you knew who this guy is you'd know he doesn't give two fucks about conditioning.

>>42822817

Sure, but I don't really want to cut. Beyond the less than 10 lbs I need to in order to make weight at a meet,

>>42822836

With as much lifting as I do, being 230-240 lbs isn't unhealthy. If I were to get back into a real sport, like rugby, I would TRY to build conditioning without losing weight, as all the best front row players are not slim.

his deadlift wouldn't go down, but you know that big fuck gut is contributing significantly to his squat in particular

i had the same thing and my squat was utterly devastated by a 30lb cut

Oh man now I know why I've been here for so long

Yesterday my diet consisted of two large donoughts, a coffee, 700g of chips, a bowl of chill with two large bread cheese sticks, a pint of beer, a root beer, Pepsi, and then two pieces of pizza

Why is a short torso a good thing for deadlifts?

For the record I have long legs but short femurs. Also a short torso. My squat is higher than my deadlift and I go deep enough for my ass to hit my calves.

>>42822222
Dang

>>42823266
Because the further the bar is away from the hip, the harder it is to move the hip to lift the bar. However, long shins and short femurs is a fantastic build for squats because your lever is short both at the knee and hip. A bit worse for deadlifts since you have a long range of motion to reach the bar due to your shins.

>>42823313
So should long femur short torso people start a deadlift with their back almost horizontal to the ground?

Geniune question

do you think is it worth getting fat (20 percent bf and above) for powerlifting?

see a lot of advocates of bulking very hard (esp for taller lifters) and putting on a lot of fat (imo unnecessarily)

>>42823588
youre just a fatass with no conditioning

>>42823629
Only if you're tall enough to be 120 or higher. Look at every successful powerlifter in 105 or lower and they're all lean.

>>42823588
I have the same thing, but with squats. I'm doing a block where I'm LPing 4x12 squats on one day and have another day where I go heavier. I did 215 last week and the bar speed still looked RPE 0 on the 12th rep but I felt like I was going to die.

>>42823629
If you're tall enough you'll have to get fat to be competitive. People around 5'8-5'9 can fill out 83kg lean, 5'10-5'11 can do 93kg, 6'+ it's hard to fill out 105kg completely lean, but you can't be competitive at the lighter weight classes. 6'2+ you have to get fat at 120 or SHW.

I think unless you plan on winning world championships then it's best for longevity and health to get as big as you can in the 12-15% bf range.

>>42823629
unless you think you can become a world champ then no, youll look and because of that feel like shit

>>42823629
unless you have the potential to break world records, no

there is nothing worse than being fat

>>42823655
at 5'9 youll look like a twink at 83kg

Damn, look at this twink.

I'm 5'11 and 83-84kg right now. Long term I'm going for 93kg lean, which will take a while since you can't put on 10kg of muscle quicker than a couple years.

>>42823701
yeah i dont know how he makes that weight he probally weighs about 86-88kg before dehydrating

i weigh 90kg at 5'9 and my goal is 93kg lean i look like a tank sitting at about 15% i would say. I can fill out way more in the legs still

>>42823727
Well, yeah. I'm talking about competition weight, not the weight you walk around at.

Is sumo safer than conventional or do you have the same chance of snapping your shit up with both of them?

When I do snatch grip deadlifts, do I compensate by setting my hips lower or let my torso lean more, resulting in higher hips?

My best advice is not to rest between reps and just immediately go for the next rep.

I used to do it all the time and I realised I can do more reps if I just go for it and not pause at the top of each rep and over think it.

Well I attempted my max before the 75% 3x10 too and it was about 7.5kg less than normal

So idk

>>42824804
I meant that the 75% was based off the Max I did that session, which is 7.5kg lower than my all time max.

I actually test my max every week and then do lots of volume, so in theory I should be good at both?

I usually do a single, a double or a triple to test my max, depending on how good my warm up feels, then just generic 3-5x10-12 with a challenging weight

So I made a Cowboy Method program spreadsheet. Currently I have my estimated max increasing by 5 lb a week. Is this correct? Because the percentages of the program also increase every week, so it seems to ramp up really quickly.

>>42824838
>I actually test my max every week
retard

>>42824855
Weird how I'm getting stronger and having fun

Do I have to test my 1rm every four weeks in the cuckols routines

>>42824838
Different energy systems or something take care of 1rms vs high rep sets. Don't know the science behind it but if you're curious do some searching.

>>42824855
A weekly single/double/triple @ 9.5 is not the same as literally hitting a true 1rm every week. Learn context.

>>42824870
yeah every newbie makes gains all the time.
