I've started doing an assistance exercise I've never seen but it's simple as fuck. I just put a band around my knees and sit into an unweighted squat for sets of 10-15 seconds trying my hardest to keep my knees out against the band. It's made a noticeable difference in eliminating knee valgus in my squat.

No joke, it's like magic. It's like when a lightning bug learns to light up it's ass for the first time.

Good tips, and bands aren't that expensive.

What? We were talking about why more weightlifters don't cross over into powerlifting. Where was the skill of that weightlifter ever implicated? So I don't know where this assumption of only talking about elite level athletes came from.

feeling pretty miserable.

i'm pretty stoked with the squat PR, REALLY happy with bench despite not hitting a PR, but the more time i dwell on it, the more disgruntled i'm becoming with the turnouts of deadlift.

I'm very displeased that i cannot maintain even a half decent position on heavy reps, when in the past this has been the only thing i was good at.

Avon, thinking about it more i'm actually more confused and think theres a higher chance youre right and i shouldnt change anything. this stems from looking at this picture. in this picture, i didnt eat, fucked up and cut WAY too much weight, over water cut in addition, then got no sleep the night before the meet.

my back looks very similar to now, which leads me to believe maybe, the fatigue is the problem.

BUT if that is the case, thats even WORSE, because none of the deadlift volume I've put in has been beneficial, at all. None of my deadlifts in the last 5+ weeks have been good, period. every one of them has had this shitty hip position, no hamstrings or glutes and all lower back.

If thats the only way i've trained, there's not going to be any real addition to the movement even if I did clean it up.

very, very disgruntled right now.

For comparison of back roundedness ( especially upper back )

I assumed the first guy:

>>34885335

And if we're talking about team sports, it's going to be pro level, college level where they're trying to go pro which generally rules out playing multiple sports given the specialization that's par for the course these days, or, frankly, people just fucking around (which is sports in general, but that's neither here nor there). I assumed we weren't talking about intramural grabass leagues, but you know what they say happens when you assume.

>>34885590
I am not basing it on one day.

I've been saying for a few weeks now that, while nervous for skills test, I actually had some confidence in good things for bench and squat, but deadlift did NOT seem like a good outlook.

Today to me was the final test of that. if you watch any of my deadlift posts from over the last few weeks, there is nothing but rounded back, zero hamstring, shit setup deadlifts.

Work at figuring it out. Grab your nuts and push through and stop convincing yourself a bad outcome is imminent. Next deadlift session get your deadlift right at the low weights and maybe do more warm up sets to try to maintain that form to working sets. But again JUST FUCKING TRUST THE PROGRAM.

either take the advice to heart or don't listen at all

I disagree.

I can only speak in regards to Starting Strength, but the mechanics of the lifts in the book are all about getting the most bang for your buck when training, most range of motion, biggest return for effort.

When we become more advanced, and begin to train competitively, we shift our focus to abusing the rules within our sport, and change our training approach appropriately.

we are not really in disagreement here, which is why i said

>only thing that's relevant to a change in form (assuming you learned it properly in the first place) is whether you're in competition or not

and by "the mechanics of a lift don't change once you stop being a novice" i mean people do not stop being affected by gravity once they end the novice phase. a different bench form won't suddenly become more efficient for moving a bar through space when a man becomes intermediate

>When we become more advanced, and begin to train competitively, we shift our focus to abusing the rules within our sport

that's true but those are abuses of technique. there's no reason why a lifter can't use the most efficient form for gaining strength in training, while fiddling with the nuances of technique that gives him the biggest numbers in competition. since strength is the single most important factor in factor in powerlifting, that's what people should, and already do. it's not unheard of to use one lifting form in training and to use another form in a meet that allows you to pull more weight.
>>
>>34885954
>it's not unheard of to use one lifting form in training and to use another form in a meet that allows you to pull more weight.
literally who does this
>>
>>34885993
many people.

for example a lot of guys highbar off-season and switch to lowbar when comp comes around
>>
>>34886009
names?
>>
>>34885954

Actually it quite often does shift - efficiency of technique has a lot to do with mobility, ROM, the strength of varying muscle groups and proportions of various muscle groups. All of which are subject to change as a lifter goes through his progression.

The most common being that bench grip tends to go out as a lifter goes up in weight classes - especially for taller lifters, who need to pack on a lot of mass before they shorten the ROM enough to get around the shoulder stress and lack of leverage off the chest they get when a lanky fucker tries to bench wide.
>>
>>34886009

"when comp comes around" often means "starting twelve or sixteen weeks out". Almost no-one who shifts main exercises won't use the actual comp lifts when training for a meet.
>>

Step listening to plg, start doing overhead press again, pick a program which you like and allows you to progress and learn for, in your spare time. There's load of books on the dropbox which will help. Bench especially.

After you've picked a programme you can progress on, stay with it for as long as possible, try to go a full year before switching.

There you go you are now a strong power lifter

Is it necessary to switch your hand grip when pulling with mixed grip? When I grip the bar with my left hand underhand it causes my body to tilt left due to scoliosis and my form goes all to hell. I'd rather not pull with that way at all.

While its normally considered desirable, I'd say scoliosis is pretty much the definition of a special case when it comes to deadlifting.

>>34886227
It's an estimated 1rm hence the ~

real 1rm could be higher or lower, but I haven't tested it, and probably won't until after a few months when the weight is heavy enough for me to use up a session or 2

Doing it as an assistance exercise for bench is great. And it's a fun lift. I won't claim my bench shot up to the sky ever since I did ohp, but I've managed to process faster as I put in more ohp.

I'm against the whole "stalling in an exercise? Just do it more" ideology you seem to incorporate in your training.

Weightlifters are better athletes than powerlifters because they're more explosive.

Debate me.
>>
>>34887634
true, they're also more mobile
>>
>>34887634
I disagree. Abosulte strength and explosive strength are incomparable. Think about lifting a grocery bag. The powerlifter would pull it slowly, while the weight lifted would use leg drive and speed to bring it up. Both are valid and 'athletic', just a different way to lift the same grocery bag.

>shitposters aren't complicated, Alfred. Just have to figure out what he's after.

With respect Master Wayne, perhaps this is a man that *you* don't fully understand, either. A long time ago, I was in Burma. My friends and I were working for the 4chan. They were trying to buy the loyalty of trip leaders by bribing them with precious (you)'s. But their PLG General was being raided by a shitposter named Sean. So we went looking for the (you)'s. But in six months, we never met anybody who traded with him. One day, I saw a child playing with a (you) the size of a tangerine. The shitposter had been throwing them away.
>So why shitpost?
Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

Though we try as good as we can, to deprive it of order, one must try as one can to recognize the tremendous beauty of existence, as all things beautiful stems from the good. If one allows oneself to see it, one will see that all existence is good.

Thus you necessarily must be good, as you are a fundamental, irreplaceable, unique part of this great complexity.

i have the same problem, my girlfriend loves rimjobs and she has a little hygiene issue down there (lazy with wiping, perhaps due to difficulty reaching there or perhaps shes even doing it on purpose) and you told me to suggest that I suggest to her I'd clean it with a baby wipe
so I tried this during sex and she said close my eyes and for some stupid reason I did and the next thing I know she is grabbing my balls wih her ass pointed straight to my face
i cant really do anything cause im in pain at this point and she turns and plants her ass on my fucking face and says "better start licking or I will squeeze [your balls])
so I had to give her a fucking rimjob (what a surprise here butthole was dirty again) so by the time she let go of my balls I threw her off and stormed out and sent her a text later saying "its over"
Did I overreact or what?
