Pretty much in between them
There are those 2 bones (processes maybe)
I'm assuming it's the UCL, especially if it's more within the forearm. I had issues with it after tearing it in football, and it will bug me still during certain lifts.
Yeah man. Hopefully I am not cheating at all on the last few reps. But probably am, hah
Well that was disappointing.
Couldn't even complete 375 today tryna max out
What probably went wrong:
1. Peaked too early
2. Didn't focus on recovery enough
3. The 1rm calculators strength curve is greater than my actual
ie. my 10rm @320 calculates about 405 for 1rm, yet I only have been able to hit 370
🙃
I think I'm gonna figure out a proper strength scale coefficient for each of my lifts to program from there
Whelp. Guess the summer cut begins
Tbh 1rm calculators are only accurate when inputting your 4-6rep maxes
Any less and they under shoot, any more and they overshoot it
What did you eat before your attempt?
Hmmm, I made sure I carbed up and was hydrated
cereal for breakfast, Gatorade right before/during
I might have to start using the sissy pad when I squat. Huge red mark across my back
just squat more till you find that comfortable spot
I squatted shirtless so I forced that to fix itself
I've had my back develop a patch of rough skin, almost like a scab, quite a few times over the years
Ah I would rather do that @BigBadSaxon - ID
I have spots on my shoulder blades from the gnarling of the barbell from squating. It's all just part of the process.
dont use the pussy pad
Anybody here have some recommendations for a primer on weightlifing programming, specifically for the deadlift? like the concepts of properly building up to a new 1RM
5x5 stronglifts + the app will probably do you good
Is that useful for any experience level? I thought that was more geared towards novices, but maybe Im confusing it with something else
It'll work fine for beginners
Well, I definitely dont qualify as a beginner. I'm pulling around 520 at 250BW, but I havent been pleased with my progress the last few months, and I think my workout plans could be more well rounded. Basically, I am more curious about the concepts behind organizing a program, rather than one specific program. Just wondering if anyone has good book or article recommendations.
ah
Idk, try researching if sheiko had written anything about it or other great strength coaches
Sheiko probably has something
But it might be in russian
Awesome vid. Those guys put out quality content
Finally hit 315 deadlift again after a disc herniation in december. Always keep pushing forward guys.
Ouch, good job
Nice work @Steve - NJ
Nice job dude
Just need to get back to 405, but need to take it slow this time
Nice dude. How long do you think that will take? I am at about 315 DL too
