He wasn't lifting heavy and it ended up snapping.

2016-08-05 12:45:11 UTC  

he was like AGH suddenly pinned

2016-08-05 12:45:17 UTC  

That's gross

2016-08-05 12:45:27 UTC  

He had no spotter?

2016-08-05 12:45:51 UTC  

>spotters
not many people use them at a certain point, I used to lift at a powerlifting gym for competitors

2016-08-05 12:45:57 UTC  

with no changing room

2016-08-05 12:46:02 UTC  

I guess wrist is better than throwing out your back tho

2016-08-05 12:46:19 UTC  

people just keep an eye on each other

2016-08-05 12:46:19 UTC  

Slipped disks. Or spinal fractures.

2016-08-05 12:46:49 UTC  

it's a shame personal training is such a racket

2016-08-05 12:46:54 UTC  

people need mandatory form training

2016-08-05 12:47:23 UTC  

but with PT training taking about 3 weeks and every other PT being an absolute joke with horrible form themselves

2016-08-05 12:47:30 UTC  

They need to maintain form too. People compensate a lot without realizing it when they push weights.

2016-08-05 12:47:43 UTC  

well yeah that comes from putting too much on the bar

2016-08-05 12:47:48 UTC  

too fast

2016-08-05 12:47:53 UTC  

that's just a rookie mistake

2016-08-05 12:48:05 UTC  

Which PTs are guilty of I see a lot.

2016-08-05 12:48:32 UTC  

yeah because becoming a PT is the easiest thing ever

2016-08-05 12:48:40 UTC  

the exit exams are a joke

2016-08-05 12:48:51 UTC  

I wouldn't know.

2016-08-05 12:49:17 UTC  

how long were you lifting before you quit?

2016-08-05 12:49:23 UTC  

I got to the 2 year mark and entered snap city

2016-08-05 12:49:32 UTC  

Not that long. Like a year.

2016-08-05 12:49:58 UTC  

I had problems with stamina and poor gains that left me in frustration.

2016-08-05 12:50:07 UTC  

were you eating big?

2016-08-05 12:50:08 UTC  

Turns out heart

2016-08-05 12:50:24 UTC  

oh I guess autoimmune would slow it down

2016-08-05 12:50:34 UTC  

I was increasing my carb and protein yeah

2016-08-05 12:51:01 UTC  

I mean eating BIG, I firmly believe that's the way, I had shit gains in my first year because I'd do 2 weeks of eating big then pussy out

2016-08-05 12:51:07 UTC  

thinking I somehow got fat

2016-08-05 12:51:12 UTC  

Nah.

2016-08-05 12:51:21 UTC  

but the second year I committed to a few months of eating big

2016-08-05 12:51:25 UTC  

and made good gains

2016-08-05 12:51:26 UTC  

I was a beginner so I match protein and carb to body weight.

2016-08-05 12:51:33 UTC  

So I didn't bulk territory.

2016-08-05 12:51:38 UTC  

>beginner
that's the best time for gainz son

2016-08-05 12:51:44 UTC  

those noob gains

2016-08-05 12:52:13 UTC  

>can't go out and eat sixteen burgers anymore because not lifting

2016-08-05 12:52:31 UTC  

Maybe I'll try again in the future.

2016-08-05 12:52:40 UTC  

But not right now.

2016-08-05 12:52:45 UTC  

yeah get in a surplus by 100-200 cals
