>it's not the fault of weakness
you can't know that, it may be him just not doing it right or it may be an actual weakness
most people dont get into anywhere near the same form with a broomstick so dont see how that would be helpful
>>37178489
GL senpai. Are you gonna push press the last reps as well?
>>37178489
what are you aiming for?
>>37178508
If he's rounding with a brromstick it shows he's just fundamentally doing it wrong. It's worth him seeing if he does do it wrong with a broomstick. If not then he won't post a video anyway.
>>37178510
Are you writing senpaitachi (f.a.m.s) or actually being an autistic try hard weeb?
>>37178523
I just recorded and noticed that I'm not rounding at all if I just don't try to keep my chest up to the point I do when I'm doing high bar squats. I think I'm good
>>37178510
trappy, I've got a question. 3 years ago I've fallen directly on my tailbone really hard, now when I squat and diddylift (to a lesser extent) I get strong pain in this area. What do? Should I see a doctor and more importantly can he really help me?
>>37178510
>>37178515
Got 5, I definitely had 6-7 in me but I didn't get enough sleep last night. Next cycle I'll smesh it, I'll probably cut down on some of the accessory work I'm doing as well.
>>37178533
Good. I thought keeping the chest up may be counter intuitive. You should keep your elbows down instead.
>>37178557
5/3/1 doesn't work and you're too weak to run it.
>slow progression so you'll never get strong
>low frequency so you'll never get efficient at doing the power lifts
only pro is just building muscle I guess
>>37178561
Thanks. I'll record my squats tomorrow to see if I round my back under heavy weights or not though
>>37178594
It's decent for cutting desu.
>>37178594
I'm cutting and my work capacity is trash. I might do Sheiko if my squat or deadlift don't improve in the next cycle or two.
>>37178622
No it isn't
"Food is a crutch"
-Mike T
>>37178557
How's the cut going, Lean Retard?
>>37178622
Nope.
>>37178630
Your work capacity is improved by doing more. Work on your weaknesses and do more or your work capacity will always be shit.
Also cutting doesn't matter, run a decent program ffs
how many days do you rest after having a cold ? or a small cold ?
>>37178661
oh fuck off, 5/31 is decent stop being such a piece of shit
never understood why so much hate towards cube and 5/3/1
>>37178663
0. I lift no matter what.
Lifted through food poisoning once.
>>37178673
Low volume and frequency, slow progression.
>>37178661
>nobody ever got big or strong on 5/3/1
>>37178673
5/31 IS A LOAD OF SHIT. YOU'LL ONLY WORSEN YOUR WORK CAPACITY, WORSEN YOUR FORM EFFICENCY AND GET WEAKER AFTER WASTING MANY MONTHS RUNNING THAT SHIT.
Only fucking autistic retards would think its a good idea.
>>37178554
>I am in pain, should I seek help?
>can a doctor help me with my physical ailments?
>>37178647
I went from 214.8 to 209.4, but I haven't been able to go to the bathroom for the past day or so, and I drank a lot of water yesterday so I woke up at 211 today. Might slightly decrease my deficit
>>37178661
I am doing more. I've done more volume than I did on SS or TM with pretty much everything. I definitely feel my work capacity is increasing. Like I said, if my squat isn't getting any better after another cycle or two, I'm doing Sheiko under 80 kg, with 5/3/1 ohp.
>>37178673
>never understood why so much hate towards cube and 5/3/1
Hint: It has a lot to do with the marketing and authors of the both programs.
>>37178685
to each his goals nigga, to say they're shit programs is abolustely retarded
>>37178554
See a doctor, and yes.
>>37178663
If you're not with a cold anymore then go to the gym.
>>37178557
Well, thankfully you stopped at 5. Wouldn't want to risk losing the gains if you only reached 6-7 reps.
>>37178673
5/3/1 is what I recommend to friends for general strength training, and it's flexible enough to keep normies making gains and not being bored, but it's not a serious PL training program, desu.
>>37178693
Nobody has won a competiton running 5/3/1
Those who ran it successfully were already big and strong. It's designed for advanced athletes.
>>37178663
>a cold
not at all typically
>a small cold
lol
>flu

>>37178701

>>37178696

you'll get weaker he said, i'm laughing here
>>37178699
Lad, why are you soft-cutting? Like a bitch.
>>37178554
And by doctor I mean an actual MD, not alternative med stuff.
>>37178699
No you're not improving your work capacity, you told me its shit.
You do 5x10 with baby weights. That's not increasing work capacity.
>>37178709
i totally agree with you man, but people dismissing as a shit program is baffling
>>37178716
>Those who ran it successfully were already big and strong. It's designed for advanced athletes.
no it is made for old fat men on steroids
>>37178719
>both authors being better than you fucktards will ever be ?
Well they're fucktards allright. Also I don't think either of them have ever competed so how could they be better than us?
>>37178727
Because it's absolutely dog shit.
ONLY A FUCKING AUTISTIC RETARD WITH SEVERE MENTAL DISABLITIES WOULD THINK ITS GOOD PROGRAM
>>37178727
It's a shit program for powerlifting.
>>37178717
>>37178707
>>37178676
suprised, I always used few days to rest my body after feeling fine
>>37178731

Daily reminder that proportions, ROM or technique is only relevant for genetic dead ends
>>37178723
It was supposedly a 1000 kcal deficit. But obviously, I overestimated. Or are you PSMF memeing?
>>37178726
I'm also doing 4x4 2 count paused deads at 64% and 5x3 2 count paused squats at 5x3. And 5x10 for squats has definitely improved my work capacity, even after such a short period of time.
>You aren't experiencing results because I say so

>>37178738

>>37178724
The reason why I haven't done this yet, is because they will probably just tell me to stay away from heavy posterior chain activities, since it does not bother me in everyday life.

Not gonna argue with you other than to say you're vastly overstating your claims.
>>37178699
>if my squat isn't getting any better after another cycle or two
At least stick with it until you're actually at 70% for 5x10.
>>37178838
Or just bump it to mid sixties which is sustainable and at least somewhat productive and keep it there.
>>37178838
>>37178845
I'll be at 50% of TM next cycle, so that'd be 3-5 more cycles. I'm not in a rush, so that sounds good.

Red pill me on benching with bands around elbows, please.
Only for >""equipped"" benchers or useful as overload for classic lifters? Is its exclusive purpose to enforce elbow tucking?
>>37179168
Never seen anyone bench with bands on elbows who competes raw in my club

No he doesnt
>>37179575
Let him go to worlds first before saying that
He would be an exception if he did a squat that good at worlds
>>37179607
but he said he does
bryce lewis
>>37179607
He is going to world's and considering his only competition is Gibbs "in too deep no hahaha ha just kidding" Brett, he will win and likely best the current 801kg wr
>>37179607
how many times have you been drug tested phil?
>>37179569
I mean if it's to teach equipped lifters to tuck (when they're benching unequipped), simulate a shirt, if it can be used for overloading (i.e. Bench variation comparable to slingshot).. Like, why do people use it and is it useful for both equipped and classic lifters as a bench variation?
>>37179649
zero even though his tren traps
>>37179654
It's fun
Where is Marcel?
Anyway, I can't squat anymore because of a back injury. I want to run 5/3/1 though.
I am going to continue 5/3/1 as intended for the other three lifts. However, I want to know if I should substitute leg press for squat and perform leg press 5/3/1 with lunge assistance, or if I should abandon 5/3/1 for squat/leg press and just do a different leg day that addresses the gaping problem of no squats.
So: 5/3/1 for all Bench, Press, DL, Leg press,
or 5/3/1 Bench, Press, DL, and then misc. leg day?

>soon
>>37179645
>likely best the current WR
Why does everyone assume Haack will beat Gibbs? The have almost identical squat and dead (Gibbs pull is faster and he will likely try 330 at worlds) and Gibbs bench is slightly ahead. Gibbs also hit 300 squat like a year before Haack did and is much more likely to pull it off in comp. It's going to be close as fuck and an amazing battle but I'd say Gibbs is favored.
Anyone ever do a push/pull split (not upper/lower)? ABxAxBx or ABxABxx?
>>37179730
Because Haack is American and we always win.
>>37179730
because fuck gibbs he's a twat

Wait, what
Watch this video, he doesn't have a closegrip nor tucks his elbows in, he's just HUGE.
His benching looks like that simply because of his proportions.

How do i lead the bar in the benchpress?
I keep hurting myself from weird miss grooves, where i for some reason fuck up the bar path, having to adjust it all of sudden with my triceps (which kills my arm).
I dno why this keeps happening.
I feel like when i try to move the bar towards my feet, i kind of lead with my elbows, bringing them ahead of the bar and thus becoming very inefficient.
On the other hand, i dont want to drop the bar just straight down, because i push up in a curve and thus cannot maintain a straight line.

Meh, dont have any, gym location makes it kind of impossible to record from a meaningful angle.
It's also only with one of my gym locations. I go to two different ones.
Benches have the same brand, width, everything. Bar is the same too now.
Literally the only difference is that one has another color (and maybe a little different coating, idk) and the one i perform shit at is randomly angled and aligned to nothing in the room.
Good bench: Everything stable, bar path is solid, i dont even think about it, i just bench. Very strong.
Bad bench: Unstable bar path, all my focus is just on not dropping the bar to the left, bottom or top or whever it might want to move. Strength is kind of weak because i have fucking slow descents due to having to control everything really hard.
It doesnt get through my head what is happening

All that blood in your benis instead of in your chest and triceps might be stealing your gains senpai!

What's that choreography for? Activate glutes and hip drive? Powerlifting is such a silly sport.
I wish I could bench that.

How many left in the tank?

he's just autistic
in reality you just need to lie down on the bench with your shoulder blades tucked back

I guess I could've hit five with a good pause like I had.

desu having some sort of routine or ritual isn't a bad thing, it helps you get your muscles firing and you mind ready.

Fucken lol
Wear white adipowers, blue rehbands, usually black compression pants or blue shorts, and usually any color t-shirt.What color should my new inzer belt be? I'm thinking white or royal blue.
Also, are lever belts a pain in the ass to adjust?
when should I start using a belt?
Are there any real cons to using it?

The lift looks good.
Can't really analyse the bar path 100% properly because it's filmed on an angle, but pic. Blue is descent, green is ascent.
It's looking like the (B) example on >>37181461 (try to visualise it in 3D in your mind and move the image to the side a bit, you'll see it matches well)
Which isn't too shabby at all.
You start with a pressing that's more horizontal, switching to a more vertical one. This is good.
You can probably still work on improving it further, but you're on the right path (no pun intended).
Keep in mind the video is filmed at an angle, so you don't see as much variation in the angle as if it were filmed from the side. Which is why it looks more "closed" than the examples in that image I posted.
So overall, looking good, keep going.
Can't really help with much besides that simple analysis without knowing more details about how your training is going, or having videos of a successful max attempt and failed attempts.
