Night lads.
Talk to you in the morning.
How often should I deload if I want to preserve my knee joints
>get wrist wraps
>only like them for squats (actually fucking love them here)
benching with wraps feels weird man
and deadlifting with them was as comfy as hook grip, just threw me off so fuck that
>>35154697
To each his own. I hate benching without wraps.
Most people don't wrap their wrists for deadlifts unless they're worried about grip for a pr attempt tbf
>>35154772
>I hate benching without wraps.
Yeah I'm going to play around with it more, just didn't feel good the first time unlike squats.
As for diddys, yeah sure, was doing heavy singles so thought I'd give it a shot. Started at 70% and was like nope fuck this, maybe I wrapped too tight but just felt awful
Can anyone link a good belt from amazon or something? never had one before, not sure what to look for.
>>35154887
inzer single prong 13mm in whatever size you fit.
bestbelts are also good, i think titans are too.
don't buy a belt from amazon.

>>35154972
thanks friend. its getting better i think. i finally feel like i'm not too far over the bar and i'm pressing with my heels and my hips are closer and i'm more upright and i'm using my glutes and it feels great. i hope it translates to heavier weights.
>>35154963
weight is 340lbs
>>35154992
it should, looks stupidly clean and sounds like you're approaching what boris calls ideal sumo
i'm few steps behind but at least slooowly improving, have a feeling I'll never get all that upright tho
>>35154963
>using wraps and belt for light weight
suprised you dont also have gloves on and a tampon in ayyee lmao
>>35154963
I wonder if that goofy russian witch doctor ever just adds random stuff to his programs to see how silly he can make it before people call bullshit.
Noob question:
I've had a lower back injury and i've found that sumos are the only DLs I can really do without stressing my back too much.
Is alternate grip mandatory for sumos or can I just do a normal grip?
>>35155021
i really like specificity desu and i haven't seen compelling evidence to train without a belt. also i don't have wraps on.
>>35155024
i did this myself desu. i took out deadlift to knees and added paused deadlifts. they felt easier than i expected so i did them for a longer pause.
>>35155031
mixed grip is normal grip lad.
>>35155006
i'm really not sure where this sudden uprightness is coming from but i dig it. keep working at it lad, form is never perfect.
>>35154963
this is how marcel entered snap city. just lift and drop man
>guy and grill on bench
>go to squat rack next to it, he is kind of eyeing the bar so ask him if he's using the bar
>"..yeah I can take it"
>he just fucking grabs it, puts it right next to where I put my shit as I was going to DL there
some fucking people, bitch i was asking if you were actively using the bar not if you wanted to reserve it for future use
>>35154992
Not bad weight for a lanklet. Amazing form desu senpai. I've been meaning to try a new pr myself. I've been doing 4x4 deadlifts at 300, last pr was 350.
>>35155031
Whatever works for you. I have a weak right wrist so I'll do alternate grips when I have to.
>>35155056
i'm like 171cm lmao not a lanklet.
>>35155048
he did it for like 20 seconds with like 80% of his max. MADMAN
>>35155092
Oh... Manlanklet.
Get swole brochacho.
>>35155031
Its not mandatory, but at some point you'll have to use hook or mixed grip. There's people who use either for their heavy sets, with their own reasons (mostly it boils down to mixed being the slightly stronger grip versus hook allowing a slightly narrower hand position that might help you get into a better starting place).
GF just sent me this
Haven't lifted for 3 months, starting from scratch.
If you were me, would you just run SS? I want to compete eventually so I'm not a fan of the 15:1 squat to dead ratio and the limited benching.
should beginners and intermediates bench with a pause?
>>35155432
almost definitely yes.
>>35155427
take SS, drop OHP, add bench everyday, do more than one working set every deadlift day.
