Forgot to lift today desu lads
I just deadlifted 563.4 lbs
>>35450367
sheiko was pretty ezpz today. getting pretty excited for my meet in 15 days. hopefully benchbro got all of his shit sent in correctly. But my sheiko ends a week before my meet because I am an idiot and planned it wrong. planning on just hitting my openers on the day that the program has the meet on and then the week of the meet going in and just doing like 50% 3x5 on each lift on tuesday/thursday
>>35450544
benchbeta*
fixed that for you
Hey guys I made a nice bench pr and I made a dirty poo poo in my diaper :((
Anyone else miss their lift because of their gym closing or closing early? I woke up with 45 minutes to close, fuuaark. Thought about rushing in there and trying to at least get the Squat PR but it would have been pretty shit
>>35450690
what weight? also do you have video?
after knee (tendon strain) patella how quickly should i return to training onec i feel like it's normal again?
It's been one week. Still feels weird.
>>35450742
I just made a bench pr and I hope your knee doesnt get better you whinny little bitch faggit fuck
>>35450742
I'd at least give it a week after it feels normal.
But then again, I just kept going and started using wraps to minimize patella movement. So maybe I'm not the best person to advise you.
>>35450806
I made a bench PR is clearly ontopic you idiot fuck
/plg/ I need some help, I think I might have hurt myself today at the gym
>Monday morning, go to the gym to do my workout
>OHP, tricep extensions, and some other assistance BS after I get done benching (did 5x5 @ 230 freedoms)
>Doing my shit, have some shoulder pain come up on my last OHP set
>Shoulder keeps hurting through tricep extensions (rippetoe style if that makes a difference)
>Finally finish all of my sets, shoulder on fucking fire
>Untie my shoes after I get to the locker room, start changing out of my gym clothes
>Check myself in the mirror to see if shoulder looks any different
>Keep looking around at it from all angles, don't see much at first glance
>One of the janitors comes over and asks what happened
>Frantically begin searching my back side
>Finally see something on my arm, go to see what it is, and I read the first letter of every line

fuck you weak faggot I could barely walk all week.
hey plg, need some help here. I'm new in my town and have a hard time making friends because of autism reasons. So I need to treasure the ones I have.
This one girl in my small friends circle that I had to spend time with didn't like me at first. So I tried to just be kind to her so she'd open up and stop being such a pain in the ass.
Now she fucking has the hots for me and wants my dick. But the problem is, she's like 80 kg. She's fockin chubby m8s. I'm into powerlifting. I don't want a chubby girlfriend. But then I have autism kind of and haven't had a steady girlfriend before. I'm 26 and sex-less. wtf do I do? This town is so small and the friend circles are microscopic. I can't pump and dump her. If I don't go for her I have nothing else lined up. See my dilemma? Thx for you time, friends.
Guess I'll conitinue being friends with her and look for pussy elsewhere.
>>35451095
This is beyond the scope of powerlifting. Don't fug her if you don't want to, but keep her around when you're bulking
>>35451144
thx m9. I can always count on you.
sbd knee sleeves yes or no?
>>35451224
yes
>>35450367
Opinions on smolov and sheiko?
I'm thinking of starting smolov come March when I will have some free time.
How do I run it? For example, do I run a squat and a bench cycle simultaneously? And what do I do for deadlifts? Just rack pulls or static holds or something? For grip strength.
>>35450819
Is Tomatoman really chaotic evil?
>>35451259
>Opinions on smolov and sheiko?
>Smolov
Smolov Jr. is okay to run for bench and squat concurrently, if you are on-point with recovery, sleep, prehab, etc. Undershoot your maxes by 5% and test at the end of 4 weeks, and I'm sure you'd make progress. Even without deadlifting, you'll either stay the same or improve slightly from the squatting.
Smolov Sr., however, is a 13 week monster. You would do squat, and nothing else.
You MIGHT be able to squeak out some light benching, and MAYBE a couple pulls a week at 50%. However, the fatigue accumulation on Smolov is pants-on-head retarded. That being said, your squat and DL will go up, if you survive.
>Sheiko
Good routine. A little memey, but it is sustainable and repeatable.
Go to Boris's website, find the right program for you, undershoot your maxes if you want to play it safe (1-3%), and let the fatigue begin.
Sheiko has forums if you have questions, or ask here, since 93% of the board has run Sheiko.
>>35451327
>Smolov Sr., however, is a 13 week monster. You would do squat, and nothing else.
>You MIGHT be able to squeak out some light benching
See, this is what I don't understand. However hard it may be, does lower body fatigue/recovery interfere with the upper body's?

>>35451327
hey buda lad
probably a couple months ago i was complaining about calf pain especially after squatting and you suggested it may have been a tendon issue
well ive been pushing through it but after today i think im going to have to stop
if you even remember what im talking about, what do you have your boys do if they complained of this and how long would you be looking at to come back?
>>35451433
>tfw livin' in quebec
feels good man
>>35451383
>does lower body fatigue/recovery interfere with the upper body's?
Yes.
Smolov (Full) is extremely taxing on your body. Your shoulder girdle will be beat up as it is just from squatting, let alone extra benching.
Really, Smolov Full is for people wanting to slap 40+ lbs on their squat, with no concern for bench/deadlift. It is not a powerlifting program. More for weightlifters trying to bring their squat up to par.
Sheiko is a much better choice, since it is programmed to improve all 3 lifts.
>>35451464
>what do you have your boys do if they complained of this and how long would you be looking at to come back?
We have a great athletic trainer that I would send them to if the issue was persistent (sorry that this doesn't help).
If it were me (and I had some calf issues a couple months ago), I would deload to super-light weights and do high rep work to see if the lighter load and increased blood flow improves recovery.
Just squatting the bar 4-5x20 3-4 times per week. If that's good, slap on 50 lbs and cut it to 4-5x10. If that's good, etc, etc.
Bill Starr rehab kinda. If the issue persists further, then it is time for physio and rehab or time off.
>>35451384
ccant be worse than budas reaction
>>35451464
http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/Injuries
See "Bill Starr Rehab for Muscle Pulls".
Even though you think it might be tendon irritation, lower leg issues can blur between tendon and muscle. Check out the info, best rehab practice for lifter's that I've seen work in practice.
>>35451485
I'm so sorry
What do you guys do for cardio work, if at all? I've been walking for about an hour on rest days and jogging for 30 min on the treadmill on training days, but after most sessions I'm pretty gassed and the treadmill makes me enjoy the gym less. What's something """"fun"""" I could do for cardio?

thats what i was scared of the whole time i was pushing through it, still wouldnt change what i done, i had a meet, but last year i already took so much time off for one thing or another, as soon as one thing heals another thing breaks ffs
so much for this being a better year lol

Think of it as a fresh start once you're healed.
Injuries are part of sport, and it's your job as an athlete (inb4 powerlifters aren't athletes) to rehab and come back strong.
You'll be fine, friend. Rehab it right, and all will be right as rain.

>>35452374
I have totally been through that. that shit sucks.
>>35452352
Bah, a lot of that is psychological.
Back in college, I was running 100+ miles per week at peak training (for 5k-10k).
My legs NEVER felt heavier than the last few days before competition. The day of competition, I felt like I was wearing lead boots. And you know what? When the gun popped, I flew.
Trust the training. Grab it by the haunches and hump every last pound out of it to make the past months worth it. Time to make Boris your bitch.

You'll feel it in your back but you have to actually dig into the SI area if you want relief.
>>35452463
how do you relive your si joint pain? for me its ongoing and sometimes i cant even squat or bend over to pick up plate
>>35452489
You sure it's the SI joint? I had what I thought was SI pain but it was actually a disc bulge at l5s1, which is literally right above the SI joint

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrVZqPkgdXo
Last block pull bonanza with 5 plates. The mats are down to 2.25", and I don't see a point to going lower, this is a double digit rep weight off the floor. In the same vein, I think I'll jump up to lmao6pl8 next time and see how it goes.
anybody use a TENS/PMS unit for massage/recovery? anything i should know before i strap myself in? useful/not useful etc.

Didn't know I was supposed to brace when doing deadlifts. Did it over a year ago at this point, much smart and stronger now. Also the pain is practically gone, am the guy you replied to btw
>>35452606
Would definitely suggest getting an MRI
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RwUqKCG2N3U&feature=youtu.be
Tested rep maxes for week 8 of PH3 and again I did much better than expected. 209lbs bodyweight
squat 470x8
bench 295x7
deadlift 523x5
5 weeks till mock meet.
>>35452621
Also, your experience may vary, but I got best results from actually squatting heavy, but knowing my limits. If it hurt, I lowered the weight until it didn't. Don't push through the pain, and most importantly, don't stop lifting. You'll fuck your shit up.
>>35452121
Just did the squat on my sheiko mock meet today. I used 100% of my max this time around on the cycle instead o95% like I normally do. barely even got 470 (95%). Decided to do 95% again instead of doing 100-105, and I couldn't even getit to my sticky ppoint before I failed.
Never do sheiko based off your true max.

>>35453186
I hate high reps, but they've been really making me stronger for some reason? i dunno, not gonna question it, just going to stick to the routine.
>>35453214
I'm really, really pumped to test 1rms. I'll be doing a meet early April. So I think I'll have a perfect window to do one of the sheiko 10 or 12 week templates leading into that meet after I finish Noron's routine. I think it has done a good job at building strength and size, but I'm doubtful of its ability to prep me for a meet. It just spends a lot of time in the 8's and 5's ranges and I feel that I benefit a lot from going relatively heavy from like 6-2 weeks out from a meet. otherwise, my 5rm winds up being like +90% of my 1rm.
>>35453317

>I think it has done a good job at building strength and size, but I'm doubtful of its ability to prep me for a meet
You're laying a hell of a foundation with that rep work. The wider the base, the higher the peak :)
You doing the blood restriction work too? Also, you're still at 209, has your body composition/weight fluctuated much?
>>35453245
And I was deadlifting too. Like I said, know your limits, deload by however much it takes to not hurt
>>35453370

I went up from 204-205 to 209 on the first phase of the routine and i've stabilized around 209-210 for a while. since thanksgiving probably.

Why wouldn't someone do something they enjoy on New Years?
>>35454232
I tried it for a while. It worked.
Would probably work better for general strength or strongman than for powerlifting.
>>35454364
you are very a*tistic ;)

That's the point idiot. This time of night it's usually just regulars because it's new years its a bunch of fuccbois hogging the benches and taking mirror selfies.
I'm in my mid 40s, been lifting heavy most of my life (550 DL and squat last time I put effort into it), and my knees are borderline fucked, the crunching sound from them is a dead give-away. Is there anything proven to lessen/reverse the crunching I get out of them every time I sit down? thx

What's the point lads.
>>35454737
I'm not even him but shut the fuck up Sparrow you dumb little wank stain. You literally never post ANYTHING helpful or informative, you just shitpost

>and my knees are borderline fucked, the crunching sound from them is a dead give-away
I'm 21 and have had the same crunch for years. Unless it hurt's it's fine.
As far as joint health a lot of people like
>fish oil (as high as 11g/day standard fish oil is beneficial for arthritis depending on the EPA/DHA content of the fish oil. I like triple strength fish oil for this reason, as x2 1g soft gels a day is enough for pretty much everything.)
>glucosamine sulfate, chondroitin, and MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane). Many joint complexes have a complex of glucosamine, chondrotin and MSM, but just using glucosamine sulfate is fine. I have taken 1g/day of glucosamine sulfate previously.
>krill oil, similar to fish oil but tl;dr it's the same shit but more expensive for the contents of EPA/DHA, but absorbs better if you have a disease that causes your bile to be shit. Krill oil also has anti-oxidants.
>>35454835
what are you thinking of right now lad
>>35454896
why all the things that make other people happy don't make me happy
alternatively, maybe other people aren't happy
>>35454814
I might just clarify that 2700mg EPA/DHA combined is the recommended dosage for arthritis treatment.
So if you have normal fish oil, 1g soft gels should have about 180mg EPA and 120mg DHA, so 300mg total.
So about x9 1g fish oil soft gels a day should be fine. But like I said, triple strength fish oil soft gels exist, so 3 of them a day should be good.
>>35454911
>why all the things that make other people happy don't make me happy
are you frustrated with not being able to be happy?
it's a very straight forward answer that what makes other people happy might not necessarily work the same for you
alternatively, many people pretend to be joyous for the fear of being outcasted by their social group, not wanting to be a drag.
Do you want to be happy?
>>35454950
frustratedly might not be the right word, more like confused and irritated and slightly panicky. I get that not everyone will be happy with the same things, but there always seem to be constants. Money, a job you enjoy, stability, family,friends, love, purpose.
maybe I havent really ever not had those things, so I don't appreciate them desu.
I don't want to be unhappy, that's for sure.
>>35454999
btw I'm gonna to bed.
Night night,friends.
>>35455008
goodnight friend
>>35454919
I'll give it a look, thanks.

>>35455067
It's probably not going to help the crunching. But like I said, if it doesn't hurt don't worry about it.
The fish oil is more of joint health thing than damage reversal, it's also something you will probably need to take for a while before you gain any benefits from (like 6 months)
can someone post that gif of sparrow pissing herself
Thnx

>norway
I do. Can't sleep.
i have no meet coming up so how does this shit work?
medium prep1 -> medium prep2 -> ???
>>35454911
I could give a shit about what other people focus on, mostly entertainment related... who gives a fuck what some fat-assed 'celebrity' is having for lunch... that tends to go over poorly with peers.. who's opinions I do not give a fuck about. Then again, I don't give a fuck about people I work with, so... meh.
What do you guys think about adding facepulls, cable flies, bicep curls, and cgbp to Texas Method every session after the main lifts?
>>35455387
Do niggers actually think like this? Honestly most white women I know are disgusted by blacks and exclusively date their own kind.
>>35455423
It's cuck porn drawn by a white guy.
>>35455387
Every session seems a little unnecessary for all of them. I'd do face pulls every session and the others on RD
>>35454364

>>35455387
Every session seems a little much me to. I'd do face pulls every session and some of the others on RD. I wouldn't try to do cgbp more than once a week. It can get pretty taxing

>bought 0.5kg of whey isolate

>it tastes like vomit
>>35455809
>buying whey
>>35455814
as opposed to what
stealing whey?
>>35455831
As opposed to making your own.
Milk is dirt cheap, why the fuck would you pay for a by product of cheese production?
No whey babay
>>35455809
>0.5kg
that's like 1-2 weeks worth nigga
or 2 days if you want to leave humanity behind
any lifters video who squat deep ?
>Did Bulgarian training
>Get a job as a security guard with shit schedule
>Decide I can still do my routine
>Burn out and feel like shit for two weeks, maxes went down
>Decide to do 3/5/1 since it's easier and less frequency
>Still feels hard
Wish I didn't need money so much lads
guess who
>>35457007
>240kg in two years
O-okay
>>35457022
he went up a weight class, check the wilks instead
>>35456522
Your rep strength is probably in the shitter tbqh
>>35457032
It's pretty bad. I just lowered my maxes by 5kg and I'm gonna get some pwo to wake up since I'm used to lifting without being very aroused.

Who /projectmomentum/ here?
>>35453407
First time injuring was ~4 years ago, and it's gotten injured twice since then. Didn't go in until this last time and the MRI said broad bulge L4L5/L5S1. Been working with a mobility coach on hip mobility and working on my hamstrings -- both hamstrings are short. Used to be a runner, hated stretching, and have torn them both.
Mid session blog, day 80:
Worked up to 475 on skwot after accidentally taking 455 ass to ankles. Hit 315 on the front skwot. I think I'll be hitting 5pl8 daily in the next month or so.
Gonna do some volume on bench and pull ups after I finish pooping.
>at gym, preparing for my lmao2pl8 squats
>as i load up the bar, a huge, 6.5ft+ guy says "how are you mate, happy new year"
>turn around, he wasnt talking to me but to 3 more massive powerlifters
>each of them are like 3x bigger than me
>they all laugh at me and wish me a happy new year anyway
>one of them asks "Are you sure you can lift that, kid?"
>then before i can reply they go off and bench 3pl8 for reps
w-why are you guys so mean and intimidating? ;~;

literally the biggest guy ive ever seen irl
Doing texas method atm.
Want to add close grip bench press and incline bench to one of the days but not sure which one.
I was thinking to adding them on the high intensity day after I'm done with the normal sets.
Tips?
>installing CBA,ACE,RHS and AiA for Arma 3
wew lads
>>35457812
Heavy close grip on ID, higher rep incline on RD
>>35457841
Sounds good. Thanks.
Woo lads just squatted 425lb highbar, fourth squat 1rm PR this week
>>35457620
You squat daily? My squat was quad-dominant so had to rework to use hamstrings and am trying to figure quickest way to progress.
>posting from cell phone and says I'm banned?
>>35457936
good for you lad
but if you dont mind step back and think for a second
how fucking pathetic and autistic would you feel if say your mother,father,friends,lover ect.. found out you had a picture saved on your computer of an anime girl saying "im cumming", used for the purpose of responding to anonemoose people on an anime image board
I'll just let you think about that for a bit
>>35457936
>fourth squat 1rm PR this week
what the fuck are you playing at lad
good job tho
got SBD large knee sleeves tight fit.
how much is this gonna hurt?
>>35457946
Yup. Best squat gains of my life. Bench and pull ups haven't gone as well. Gonna probably switch to a split for my upper body to build some muscle and keep squatting daily.
>>35457962
I'd tell them they should definitely not dig any deeper on my PC if that bothered them
>>35457963
Taking a week off from upper body stuff so my subluxed SC joint can heal, and there was tons of time to play with high frequency squats
So I did highbar 385lb belt less on Monday for a PR, 415lb belted highbar on Wednesday for a PR, 445lb belted low bar for a PR, and now today 425lb belted highbar
>>35458002
it wont if youve went by the chart, in my experience anyway
still need to do the fold over method but they arent exactly hard to put on
Took 3 weeks off squatting and I've completely forgotten how to squat low bar and I've lost 40kg from my squat.
I'm now a 2pl8 highbar ATG beltless squatter again
New Years off to a god start lmao...
>>35458046
lol the revolutioners think your one of them
you may aswell be desu
>>35458028
my knees are like 39cm thats about the mean recommendation for tight fit larges. a lot of people told me that tight fits are too tight and painful to use every session
Are there any plg approved technique videos for goodmornings?
>>35458067
No NYR's at my gym. Good feels.
>>35458071
i went tight fit by the chart and wear them before warm up squats until i go home with no issues desu
people were recommending two to three sizes smaller than standard fit and yeah that probably would be awful to wear
could also be dependant on calf size tho
>>35458071
i also have 39cm circumference and i have been using the larges for around 20 months now, although they have gotten harder to put on since my calves have grown its still relatively easy
having them on for a whole training session isnt uncomfortable either, I do take them off for benching though, since that has led to some discomfort at the back of my knees because of leg drive
