when you set up, looks like your toes were directly under the bar, usually the recommendation is to stand with your shin about 2-3cm away from the bar, then bend down and lift
16:40
if you change that, it should significantly increase the efficiency of the lift, and (probably) slightly decrease risk of back issues
+1 to this, you did not struggle much on that rep @Gebrüder Zippie . however, it can be quite intimidating to truly go 100% on a squat, even with safeties(edited)
Fair , I’m kinda scared of completely tearing up the skin on my chins with dl

A pound is a unit of weight used mainly in Britain, America, and other countries where English is spoken. It is also used interchangeably with lb or lbs. One
I always get a chuckle when elsewhere in the world it's called Ice Hockey. Now the goal they scored with 6mins left. was it a tying goal or was it the 1 - 0 goal?
I see now how you have brain damage if ur the goaly(edited)

Nice, must have been either good goalies or good skaters to keep the score to 0-0 near the end. Is this a contact league? ( by that I mean is there hitting)(edited)

Yep. pretty standard lol. as long as the player had the puck and the person making contact's skates didn't leave the ice or didn't have an elbow up or specifically target the head, clean hit.
I might want to switch to bench from OHP in next block my current 1rm estimate for close grip bench (which was always at end of workout anyways) is 180 lbs
Your muscle basically has 2 different types of muscle fibers that respond to different training styles
09:30
You have strength duration fibers that are less explosive/strong but have more volume
09:30
And then the strength fibers that are stronger but don’t add as much volume
09:31
You train the strength fibers with low rep high weight and you train the duration fibers with higher rep low weight
09:33
So if ur going for looks 12-30 reps is optimal and if ur going for max strength 1-5 reps is optimal. 8-12 is kinda the Middleground where your training a bit of both(edited)

For the last couple months I’ve changed from hypertrophy training to orm training
09:42
And my bench went from 80x7 to 102.5x1, my dl went from not doing it and I think ~110kgx1 to 150x1 and my squat from 100x1 to 130x1
09:43
In like 2 months
09:44
My goal is to hit 120kg Bench, 180kg dl, 150kg squat by the end of the year(edited)
It's basically a demonstration of strength. Doing singles is not particularly effective at building muscle. You can get a lot stronger at a given level of muscularity, but ultimately that will limit you.
I'm doing it because I have been doing body building style trianing for the last 2 - 3 years, and it's fun to get strong
but, there are different adaptations/skills that go into turning your max 8-12 rep strength into being able to do a maximum lift for 1 rep
16:04
the program that I have run lasted about 3 months, and started with higher reps (roughly 8), and steadily tapered down, I've been doing a lot of singles doubles and triples for the last month
I'm likely going to run this program again, because it was very effective, but it would not be logical for me to just keep focusing 100% on 1 rep strength forever
16:06
my 1rm squat went from 275 -> at last 310 (predicting 330+ maybe?)
deadlift from 330 -> probably 350+
and overhead press from maybe 115 to closer to 130
in some ways, this training is WAY easier than what I was going before
16:17
12-15 rep squats are hell
16:17
nothing like that
16:17
max strength training can kinda make you lazy
16:17
my condition has definitely taken a small hit
16:17
don't want to do that forever
16:17
I basically do a set, rest 3-5 mins, and repeat
16:17
much less actual work per workout
16:20
one of the stupidest things I ever did was playing with 30-40 rep leg presses tho
16:21
for the lulz, for a couple months

Creatine Monohydrate powder is taken from the compound Creatine, which is essential in the process of sending energy directly to muscle. It is naturally produced by the body in organs such as the liver, pancreas and kidneys, and it can be found in areas as diverse as the brain, heart and all musc...

It mixes into water fairly well

Fundamentally any Creatine monohydrate is as effective as any other

Brother chiekn
is it true that u are allowed to drink 1 beer at work in germany
my thinking on it is that there is high quality evidence that it provides a benefit, there is no evidence of negative health impacts, and it is dirt cheap
You can’t just do a no strings attached free tryout training anymore, you now need to either get a 14€ day pass or sign a contract where in the first month you don’t pay anything and can freely cancel

16:34
So dumb
16:34
But it is what it is
16:38
Idk y they changed it to that, just means people are less likely to try out
16:39
And it’s not like it’s hurting their bottom line to let people try out
16:40
I asked y and they said bc „people were abusing it by bringing friends who weren’t planning on over signing up“ 100% they meant me bc I do that all the time
16:40
But still, like I got them 2 new customers apart from me
Deloading every other week/every so often is optimal too tbh, I should start doing it again more, let’s your heavy muscle fibers fully recover while still giving some growth stimulus
18:22
Did that for a while tbh and it was super effective
If you find yourself doing that a lot for the fun 1rm exercises just do them twice a week and do once for volume and once for caveman lift heavy ooga booga

Can you crush a watermelon between those bad Larry’s
logically, I know that this will slow down progress, but I want to be shredded this summer
I have not been properly lean since gaining all this muscle in the last 3 years(edited)
@Brother YoMo did the math, I weigh 181lbs, and if I assume I'm at 20% body fat, then to get to 12% would have body weight of approximately
181 - (181*0.08) = 167.
So, pretty reasonable for my goal of losing 15 lbs in 3 months.

my normal gym has one too and the pad is pretty wide and then they have a really wide/thick pad you can put inbetween and then its not too bad but im currently at the one in my hometown and it has a really shitty setup

it was also super slippery when i tried it with socks for more stability
A lowrider or low rider is a customized car with a lowered body that emerged among Mexican American youth in the 1940s. Lowrider also refers to the driver of the car and their participation in lowrider car clubs, which remain a part of Chicano culture and have since expanded internationally. These customized vehicles are also artworks, generally...
