Whats with olympic level athletes being so modest, it's like they have achieved a level past humanity. Meanwhile national level athletes compensate for their short comings.
>Jon North
>inb4 usane or Kendrick
>>35323536
usain bolt isn't very modest and he's an olympic athlete

Newbie question. My lower back hurts after doing ATG squats, is it for butt wink? can I get rid of it just by stretches? for how long?

Nice to see you're defending a crackhead
>>35323670

you're still assblasted over his cheeky banter
>>35323613
I train in a Crossfit Box, so it's difficult to record without all the all the people doing WOD. Going to do more hamstring and glute stretches then.

Lu is a pretty (really) cool guy.
>>35323736
usain bolt wears backwards caps?
>>35323670
So what? He's never going to be olympic level and I'm pretty sure he realized that many years ago - there's no arrogance about the guy. Maybe he just enjoys his sport A LOT and his energy and bravado are something that comes as a result of that (and maybe methamphetamines). Besides, even if you're pretty autistic, you can tell he's not taking himself very seriously, rather having fun his gym bros and the camera. Love his energy, the crazy cunt.
>>35323593
Yes, it's because of buttwink, took me about 2 months of proper stretching and also the purchase of weightlifting shoes. My dorsiflexion was absolute garbage because of all the ankle sprains I've suffered. I still have an imbalance between my left and right ankle. But my buttwink is gone, no more lower back soreness.
>>35323924

How would one program front squats into smolov or rsr?
>>35324364
They have national medalists and Olympians. We have a pudgy sixteen-year-old pedophile and oly boi.
>>35324796
Replace back squat with front squat. Ta da.
I posted this in a thread on its own but was told to come here cause you guys actually pick up things and put them down again
Hey guys I fractured my ankle a few months back and just started to go to gym a few days prior
>don't do parkour kids
It's been given the ok from doctors to weight bare and that was weeks back but if it's rolled in the way my soul of my foot would be pointing outward it gives pain.
Seeing as I just started gym I'm figuring out what I should be pulling and pushing and I've been squatting 1pl8 5x5 but feel like I can go a lot higher but I'm worried about my foot. Should I be?
I'm not even going to go near leg press with this ankle
>>35325187
>leg press
>>35325187
I did mine playing football, doesnt sound as bad as yours tho and mine fucked with my calves and back. Take a week off walking around maybe do some bodyweight squats n shit and just go from there. See a good physio aswell
>>35324361
antas dipped in gold
>>35325187
keep going heavier until something breaks
>>35324868
but what about set and rep schemes?
