What the fuck am I doing wrong then? It just happens when I start pulling hard with my hams.
It doesn't exactly hurt but feels really fucking nasty and makes me stop.

Leg curls are notorious for causing knee pains
>>37512021
>>37512010
better one I made.
>>37512122
>>37512130
No no, it's not the knee - it's like the insertion point of the hamstrings in the kneecap, I guess.
It feels like the hamstring is being pulled on really fucking hard. But it feels weird and nasty, not good.
>>37512142
>starting strength
Really is summer
>>37512202
Try googling the issue
>>37512203
it's winter where I live
>>37512202
If it feels nasty don't do it
>>37512217
I do not give a shit about your shitty poor country
>>37512202
>insertion point of the hamstrings in the kneecap
>>37512212
Alright, I guess I'll give it a try.
>>37512228
So what do I do for my hamstring then? :/
>>37512258
Reverse hypers, deadlifts, rdl?
Why do I squat 30 lb more than my deadlift
So we're clear my squat is 535 and deadlift is 505
>>37512286
You're a pussy and neglect deadlift volume
>>37512295
Deadlift volume and squat volume almost identical t b h lad
>>37512286
High squats, poor DL form, incredibly shitty DL leverages.
>>37512286
maybe you squat alot more and neglect deadlift
mine are pretty close (but dead is still higher)
or of course there is always the possibillity you are cutting depth but we know you will say you arent so whatever
>>37512257
Obviously it actually inserts below the knee, yes.
But by in the knee cap I mean very close to it, which it is.
>>37512286
Better technique, better leverages, trying harder... Could be a variety of things
>>37512286
Switch to sumo stance and watch ur deadlift shit on ur squat overnight
>>37512300
Deadlift more
That's the only solution. Increasing volume is literally the only fucking way to progress.
That's the fundamentals of weight lifting for fucks sake
>>37512212
Googled it and read that hams should not be worked in isolation as they are meant to work with glutes or some shit.
One should either do this
>>37512268
or use a ball and do some kind of curls that way.
I can't do RDLs due to inflexibility though. Are they still legit when done from blocks / the rack?
Otherwise I will try and see how I can get revers hypers or this ball stuff to work with weight.
>>37512303
>>37512306
Both lifts were done in a meet to standards so that's not the case
>>37512327
Finally some real advice
>>37512335
>Googled it and read that hams should not be worked in isolation as they are meant to work with glutes or some shit.
Interesting. Thanks for letting me know my man, much appreciated.
You may benefit from freeing up the hips a bit to do RDLs
Bottom right image is the best
>>37512348
>Finally some real advice
not really, not saying dont try it, but my deadlift was 10 kg more than squat
tried switching to sumo after meet and couldnt get them better than my conventional while them also feeling shit
hope it works for you tho
>>37512357
My hips are totally fucked, my APT almost looks clownish because my ass sticks out like crazy.
Did these lunges today, spent around 45-60 seconds per leg.
Felt brutal but good.
But it will need some time to unfuck this hip situation and during that time I cannot conventional nor RDL without rounded lower back.
>>37512394
>tried switching to sumo after meet and couldnt get them better than my conventional while them also feeling shit
But sumo is cheating!
>>37512335
>Googled it and read that hams should not be worked in isolation as they are meant to work with glutes or some shit.
It doesn't matter, he's probably using retardedly high weight.
Dietmar-type programs often have hamstring curls programmed in, and it's really just an issue of using easy weights. Like guys that deadlift 250kg+ hamstring curling like no more than 40kg.
>>37512415
I see my man. Ever thought of seeing a physio? If not check out "Dr Kelly Starlett" on YouTube. He has a lot of great mobility videos if you check the "playlists" section.
He wrote "becoming a supple leopard"
>>37512420
i wish it was believe me
so disappointed when i didnt get my complimentary 40kg to deadlift
>>37512455
>Tfw was able to 10 lb LP my sumo deadlift 55 lbs higher than my conventional 5 rm
>>37512434
Yea, I know that guy and about is books.
Watched a few of his videos but they are so overloaded with information that I can't really comprehend the information behind it after.
In all of his videos I saw of him he goes around and shows this and then that and then also very important is doing this, and then here another variation and then also do that, etc.
Mad respect for all his knowledge, but I need something time efficient that covers the most important issues that I am dealing with.
And I think, for the moment, I need to adress my fucked update hip flexors and work on my weak hams and glutes and spinal erectors.
>>37512426
Too much weight might be a thing, yep.
But I thought making them stronger is the purpose of doing them in the first place?
>>37512480
yeah but you are at a stage where everything improves anyway
your conventional probably went up too
>>37512455
>tfw squat 3rm is 140kg and sumo diddly is 190kg
I got some long ass femurs.
>>37512498
Yes, but start out with weight you can EASILY handle, this is kind of the key to Dietmar-type programming, it's actually never supposed to be weight you can't control, this is also why most accessory slots are left open in terms of weight; did it feel shitty? Lower the weight, no harm done.
>>37512489
I strongly recommend, despite all sense and reason, you don't take the logical approach and try to fix what you think is the matter.
I recommend you find the video from his channel that best suits your needs and go over it slowly and really listen to what he says.
If you post the exact video I could analyse it for you.
>>37512498
I do them for sets of 10 desu. Feels really good after doing a bunch of quad dominant stuff right before it
>>37512503
My conventional was miserable. Built up to 310x5 through 5 lb LP and then tanked for no reason down 20 lbs or so. After my pec tears, they were both the same weight, so I said fuck it.
>>37512520
Haven't really found the relevant video to my issue on his channel, to be honest.
I mean, I can simply search for APT fixes, but then I'll just end up finding stretches for the hip flexors - and that is what I am doing anyways.
Or where exactly do you think my logic might fail me? I can see in the mirror that I have APT, so I do stretches for my hip flexors.
>>37512597
I just wanna make sure you're doing the right thing. Making logical steps without experience can be counter intuitive.
As long as you're sure what you're doing is right is all I wanted.
Long shot asking here but deadlifting is hurting my knee
Any good YouTube videos on the subject?
>>37512627
Sumo?
>>37512652
Conventional. Very high volume and frequency.
>>37512612
Well, that's cool of you.
But at this point I'll just trial and error until I am bored of trying to keep up with my body's resistance against lifting heavy weights.
Had back pain, held me back a great deal, eventually fixed.
Then realized I can't even conventional no matter how much i practice hip hinge.
Then my fucking knees start hurting for no reason that would be apparent from looking at my form (to me and others in this plg).
Now I am left at doing sumo deadlift and not squatting, doing abitrary things that I read on the Internet as measurement to possible causes of knee pain in the squat.
Which is addressing muscle imbalances such as weak core, glutes and hams as well as tight quads.
I'll do this for like 2 months, then start squatting again, will probably run into something stupid again and then eventually I will most likely do something else that is more suited for me.
>>37512661
I got nothing m8, sorry. Try asking a more experienced trip when they're on
Lolololol fucking overheard this convo
"Yeah I think we're done. Shes a nice girl but I just don't see a future with her"
"Brian she STABBED YOU WITH A SERVING FORK"
>>37512669
In my honest opinion all this stretching business seems like it wont help much.
I mean you never had these issues before without stretching. They're just issues which heed rehabilitation IMHO
yes stretching helps, but I feel it's best to keep stretching vague and not target all these minute muscles and what not. Logically stretching the protagonist muscle will just make the antagonist muscle (and visa versa) tighter in comparison and surely that would be a cause of issue?
Honestly if I were you I'd get a referral to a physio to fix my hips, as first priority.
But I've gone full circle. If you're confident that's what you need to do to fix the issue then ignore me please. I'm only giving my I out on what I understand of the situation, without your experience.
>>37512286
because you're a cool guy
>>37512415
Biggest cause of APT in my experience is weak glutes and abs, especially abs, from never learning how to brace. Stretching can only do so much for you if you dont fix the motor issues behind the problem.
Lunge stretches are great since you need glute action for any sort of stretch, so keep up woth those. But most importantly learn to use your core, not just rectus but all the internal abdominals as well. Planks are great for this.
You may need to go down in the weights youre lifting in order to brace properly. Do planks before squats/deads to prime your CNS. Watch Chris Duffin and KStarr information on how to brace and what bracing is. Do very slow paused and breathing (staying in the hole with the bar for 15-20 breaths or more) squats/deads.
Good luck my man, youll figure it out.
>>37512789
Hey, Alex. What size knee sleeves do you think would fit for me? I'm thinking of getting medium SBDs. I want them to come on/off pretty easily for training.
>>37512789
What's up Alex?
>>37512737
I didn't have these issues before lifting, no.
But it seems logical that through lifting the muscle groups became bigger and were put under more stress than when I wasn't lifting.
It only seems logical that a bigger muscle that is also stressed regularly has a bigger potential of becoming tight and also having greater impact.
And it also seems logical that muscle imbalances become way severe by lifting, since the gap is being stretched out even harder.
I can't remember having such APT before I started lifting, for example.
I appreciate your input and i will likely consider involving a PT along the way, but for now I will just follow what I have laid out in my mind and see where it takes me.
It won't be too much of a loss if it ends up not working, there are plenty of other activities that I can do in life.

WELL GEE GUY, HAVE YOU TRIED MAYBE MEASURING YOUR KNEE ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE SIZING CHART?!? NO? OF COURSE YOU HAVEN'T YOU FUCKING MOUTHBREATHING RETARD
How to break in belt a bit lads? Been using the comfy ones from mates at the gym but now got my own that's fine for squats but kills me on deadlift. Got a meet in a month so if I can just make the pain down to bearable level that'd be good.
>>37512801
http://www.andersonpowerlifting.com/neoprene-knee-sleeves-p/sbd-knee-sleeves-pair.htm
see the sizing chart. mine are in the car and I'm in the house drinking a chocolate chip frappe and eating mcdonalds, but I'm pretty positive mine are larges. I'm sure mediums would work fine for you, and if not you'll grow into them.
>>37512802
work was ok today and I just got home. drive that usually takes about an hour took me a touch over 2 hours because some dumbcunts got into an accident on an already notoriously busy highway. plus it's 92F here so the drive went from an hour of being comfy and listening to podcasts to being 2 hours of me sweating my dick off.
so I'm happy to be where I am now.
>>37512804
Also, this might sound memey but the Ashtanga standing sequences are extremely athletic and worth doing.
Especially the triangle poses, they help teach you how to hip hinge one leg at a time, so muscle tightness doesnt really interfere. If youre really bad APT your hamstrings wont want to let go in any sort of bent over position, especially not under load, since letting go even more could hurt your back. So teaching them its 'ok to let go' one leg at a time in the triangle poses is a great way to form proper motor patterns, since the back is safe.
>>37512833
Try setting it higher up for deads
>>37512798
That sounds good, like somewhat promising that I might be on the right track.
I'll still have to figure out how to work my glutes properly.
Glute bridges felt weird. People told me and actually demonstrated that they started with 100kg doing them and that I should be able to do that easily too.
But the exercise just feels weird, kind of. I think that I just have no concept of glute activation.
Can't remember ever feeling them in my squat.
Same for hamstrings.
For bracing .... Yea, I think it's not too bad, but it can be improved most likely. I am a real mental-let when it comes to it though. Bracing really, really hard is such an uncomfortable feeling that instantly rises the urge to stop it inside of me every time I do it.
It's like the most exhausting thing is bracing and not actually lifting the weight.
As for core work I will either do planks of ab wheel rollouts.
Rollouts I did today, must say it felt weird and I believe my freaking lower abs had some kind of cramp at some point. They started feeling weird and I stopped.
Planks with some weight on my back actually felt quite nice, a real good 45 seconds of trying to not let the hip drop and a real good feeling of exhaustion at the end.
So I guess I'll stick with planks
>>37512832
The sizing chart has me right on the cusp of medium and large, but I'm such a twink I don't believe it.
>>37512843
Interesting.
I had Marcel once told me to practice hip hinging with a broom stick, trying to keep it in touch with the back at all three points while bending back.
Never really snapped in my head though, never really did it with great motivation either thogh.
I'll add what you mentioned to the list. Since I can't squat at the moment I have enough time to fill and it sounds promising.
>>37512861
>Don't recall ever feeling [glutes] in the squat
Squat like Rippe teaches and that's all you'll feel lel
>>37512888
Sitting back at lot and having a real flat back angle?
Strangely not, no. All that does is making my lower back feel shit, because once again it requires more hip hinging, which I can't do properly, and this end up with a rounded lower back in a motion that is back dominant.
Not a good combination for me
>>37512913
Wew lad, hope you fix your shit soon
>>37512925
I hope so too.
And I hope you stop injuring yourself!
>>37512941
I'm good now famalam. Just a really bad cramp/muscle spasm. Pretty much back to normal at this point
>>37512839
The sizing chart had me on the border of medium and large, so I just got a large. I plan on eventually going up to 93kg, so I'll fill them out eventually. Enjoy your weekend at home!
>>37512946
That's quite remarkable, for your desu lad.

>>37512861
Squat isnt really a huge mover in the squat despite the meme. Primarily hamstring and quads. It does help stabilize the pelvis so that they can do their work, though.
And yes, bracing should be the hardest part of the movement. You get used to it.
Do your planks right before squats/deads. Not to exhaustion or failure, but to prime the bracong pattern. Also, those paused breathing sets will do more for you than you might think. Do them heavy but not so heavy you'll hurt yourself.
That broomstick thing is silly, I have seen it before but not everyone is built the same. Even on the veterbral disc level there are variations in angles, so your neutral spine may not be with all three points on a plane. Your CNS is built to protect the spine though, so long as youre not dysfunctional. its better to learn proper bracing and let everything fall into place than to micro manage everything.

Of course the glutes are a huge mover in the squat, what makes you think otherwise? In the low bar squat (if you lean over enough) the hamstrings don't actually change length very much due to the knee and hip flexion usually being fairly balanced, meaning their function is primarily isometric. They only really lengthen to a great degree if you try and keep your shins pretty vertical.
In the bottom of an ATG front squat however, the hamstrings are as shortened as they can be, therefore they can't contribute much to hip extension out of the bottom whatsoever. That is why front squatting can give you glute doms if you're not used to doing them, since they're having to do most of the hip extension work themselves.
The glutes will always be lengthened and contribute tremendously to hip extension in any type of squat.
>>37513381
if this is kg, ok
if not, kill yourself
Hi plg I'm a new friend. How do I into powerlifting?
I've been lifting around 10 months (with 5 months of fucking around not knowing what the fuck I was doing i.e. didnt even squat or deadlift) and my stats are (lbs):
Bench: 185
Squat: 240
Diddly: 305
I know I'm still weak as shit but that's aside the point. Should I keep doing a 3-days-a-week full body 3x5 routine until I gain more strength or should I switch to a different program that would more suit someone who's ultimate goal is to be a powerlifter?
>>37513443

hey guys, been cutting for a few months (I was chubby before). I'm not cut yet, but I'm ~15% bodyfat so I don't look fat. Just don't look cut. I'm also tall and have always been bigger all my life. So for me it's hard to get to lower bodyfat (not saying it's impossible, definately is). To give you an idea when I started lifting I weighed 280 but I didn't even look fat (just chubby I guess). That gives you an idea of how I carry weight. I'm 220 now (@6'4).
Basically, I've reached a point where I really don't want to cut anymore since I feel like shit in the gym, but at the same time is it too soon? Shouldn't I be like 12%?
I want to start slow bulking so that I can reach my goals of 3 pl8 bench / 4 pl8 squat / 5pl8 deadlift. I was very close to reaching those goals prior to my cut. Should I just say fuck it and end my cut? I've lost quite a bit of strength so want to go back to a slow bulk.
any advice?

325, after 6 sets of deadlifts m80. I will admit, my deadlift tanked hard from my cut. But now its relatively stable.
>>37513873
Please don't :( I'm just a twink.
>>37513874
Nah, I'm not a scumbag.
>>37513886
As long as you're comfortable with how fat you are and would be comfortable being slightly fatter, don't cut. I wasted a couple months when I started lifting cutting until I had abs. I'd be much better off if I hadn't done that I think.
>>37513960
I know lmao, I go to the gym to lift, not to look good. I just wear what's comfy. Was definitely keeping the bar against my shins though.
>>37513960
>that shit doesn't work and you know it
sorry friend.
>>37513923
your grip and stance and foot angle all look asymmetric as fuck.
>>37513939
this is actually quite pretty looking.
>>37513974
I was set up diagonally compared to the camera, because hex plates. I don't doubt there's some asymmetry though. Thanks for the squat complement though :)
>>37513945
Yeah
>>37514005
Sucks to suck lel. Wonder if there's a VLC player on the app store though
>>37513939
Mirin' squat form. I hope to get my squat that smooth one day.
>>37514031
This is a fairly recent fix lel. I attribute it to staying more upright, the 5x3 pause squats, and the BBB squats I've been doing. It feels mostly consistent now.
>>37514048
>staying more upright

Good luck lad. Make a good showing
Disliked squats because of frustration at my shit form and difficulty progressing
Just finally did a good set at heavy weight and it's a euphoric feeling lads

comfy video
>>37514075
Have you tried letting your knees go forward more to allow you to maintain a more upright position more easily?

Someone explain something to me. Why is it the smallest shits that make me feel like I'm having a baseball bat rammed up my anus when the big ones slide right out?
>>37514145
Yeah bro!
Thanks dude! Time to kick ass!
>>37513819
Good luck man, hope you kick ass.
>>37513819
Slay, lad. Make us proud.

Good luck breh. Smesh it

30 deadlift reps in one session finished and holy shit my quads are dead
On the road to fix my shitlift
>>37514277
i imagine the churning of your digestive tract as an easier time moving things in contact with it. smaller shits have less surface area, so they move slower
>>37514294
>>37514347
>>37514361
Aw guys, thanks! I'll smesh it good.
>>37514490
KYS
Is there any benefit to doing say 3x8 over 8x3? 8x3 is the same number of reps but you can use a higher weight so should be better right?
>>37514551
Depends if you're training for strength or hyper trophy
>>37514614
Ehhh it's the moronic summerfag
KYS
>>37514551
8x3 is better in pretty much every way except for the time it'll take to finish it.
>>37514530
>>37514633
When I'm squatting I feel a tightness in my lower-back and core, and I tend to lean forwards like I'm doing a good morning. What are some good exercises that let "Voldemort's daughter" (Bellatrix got knocked up with snakeman spunk right before the battle of Hogwarts), who was there the whole time disguised as Cedric's cousin Delphi, steals the time turner and kills Harry Potter in the past?

Not as small as your dick
Holy shit fucking rekt

sensationalism based on fear
>>37514838
Because their thunderous report would trigger the fault lines and the state would fall into the sea.
Is dad rock IPF approved?
I've been listening to it a lot while lifting lately and want to know if I'm still a real powerlifter
>>37514962
How can your precious gun save you if a skilled warrior with a katana came in your shop and before you could unholster your gun he'd already cut your arm off
>>37514989
No.
Music is not IPF approved. Neither is excessive crowd noise, public ammonia use or putting down your deadlift too quickly.
>>37515013
>music is not IPF approved
This is objectively incorrect
>excessive crowd noise
Objectively incorrect

Hey I think I saw you on vancouver island about 3 hours ago?
>>37515062
It's alright, their magazines are limited to zero (0) rounds.
how come with all the laptops that I owned they all randomly turn on for a sew seconds after theyve been asleep for a while then go back to sleep
Is that topkeks malware spying on me?
>>37515096
So all those losers in /k/ just have it for a decoration? No one calls them faggots for it?
>>37515076
Sean, if you ever do see me, I'd be more than happy to by you a drink.
nn lads
I stayed up too late again.
>>37515139
I did see you
You had a mustache and looked grumpy and kept muttering things under your breath so I decided to stay away
>>37515148
Nn lad
>>37512085
Your mustache is officially stupid.
Shithouse workout
felt like shit, was weak as shit
5x120kg squats? did 3 reps last week, barely managed singles today. 5x52.5kg OHP went up so that's a half kilo PR which is pathetic. Deadlift singles felt ok at 150 but i gave up after two doubles.
Lack of sleep last night+ shit diet all last week=shithouse workout
eating 100g brocolini and 250g bok choy with 200g+ chicken in a soy, honey and chilli sauce with a dash of lemon. back to monitoring my protein and vegetable content for me
this is also the first time in a long time i ate before working out, and worked out in the afternoon instead of the morning. felt really sick during my squat workouts and just heavy and shit the whole time.
After the 18th and the 1rm day, i'll cut down a bit,like to 75kg, then start a slower more controlled bulk back to 82. then i won't do 1rm days as much as i'll go for 1rm's when my 5rm catches up to my 1rm instead.
>>37515176
that's mean ;_;
If I post a squat form check tomorrow will guys make fun of me? :(
>>37515234
Ignore isley, he "lifts" equipped anyway
>>37515249

>tfw hit 80kg bench x 5
is 2 plate in sight ?
>>37515290
Hi Isley, stop evading your ban
>>37515302
i hit 92.5 for 5 before i benched 2 plate.
Is Chris (wank) online?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrNuEEU6o_4
how do these look lads. Feels like deadlifts are really coming together.
>>37515398
i wish i could dl conventional
>>37515426
same
>implying I'm banned
Kill yourself you pathetic shit
>>37515302
I hit 2pl8x1 the other day and I would say 80kg is my 8rm on a good day. I have done 90kgx3 though. Start doing singles around 90 and get a lot of CLEAN reps in around 75-80kg and you could hit it for a single within a month or sooner depending on how hard you try.
Wew just hit a 2 X bw squat.
>>37515398
My name is Chris and I just wanked. Looking solid.
>>37515398
Looking pretty good. Hard to tell from the angle but maybe you could do with a bit more lat usage/tightness, but that could just be the camera positioning.
>>37515808
I think you're right. Any tips on cueing them more? I'm trying to do Duffin's cue but it's weird. He doesn't really explain it too well.
>>37515827
None that'd be really applicable. My pulls are all hook or overhand so the cues don't really carry over too well.
186kg, pretty happy lads.
>>37515697
Welcome to the club, enjoy the boardshorts free zone
I want to joegram

Fuck off you fatass Dyel piece of SHIT

Where did you learn to Deadlift?

chris duffin videos + input from my gym owner
>>37516262
Oh. Looks better than it should if that's your sources lmao
Looks really good my man. I'm very jealous.
>>37516181
Looks pretty sweet for 95% there Georgie. On the train to PRsville.
>>37516181
Looking less like a tomato there, what do you think your raw max would be now, 230?
>>37516306
pffff like 220 at best
>>37516279

>>37516325
I'm getting fed up with these new trips and summerfags (lith)
What do I do?
I went to /fit/ and its full of summerfags asking for firm advice for 1pl8 deadlifts and asking why they don't have a vertical spine in the squat.
And instead of anybody correcting them they just reply with anecdotal shit about how goblet squats and rows helped them e.t.c
I'm going insane
Why has everyone gone retarded over night
>>37516325
you should try harder then
>>37516338
>What do I do?
Seanpost at them until they leave.
>>37516097
Get cancer & die
>>37516270
What's up with people bashing duffin?
I don't fucking get it, that guy has more experience in lifting than anyone that has ever browsed this website.
>>37516380
Summerfag example #10983
Is it possible that ab wheel rollouts target the lower part of the abs mostly?
They literally cramped up when I did them yesterday and they are the only ones that are sore today, the upper ones aren't really stressed.
>>37516338
Leave? If you're that easily triggered, you're on the wrong site mate
>>37516395
Right, I guess it's just one of the great meme's.
>>37516407
Get cancer and die

Use your brain, summerfag
>>37516420
Lmao, you are fat, weak and uneducated.
Please leave.
>>37512286
Are you like a pretty overweight guy?
Not a sledge at you, just that most heavier guys I know also dead less than they squat.
>>37516420
You need to sort out your issues if you get this mad from people using a name on an Ethiopian deer hunting forum, Sean.
When cuckols already adds 10kg in 2 weeks to my squat. :')
>>37516435
Get cancer and die, summerfag
>>37516428
Get cancer and die, Chris
>>37516453
Is that all you can say lad?
Are you like hodor? Only able to say how you're gonna die

You need to suffer before you die

Yeah alright, turn your trip on so I can filter you pls

>>37516380
>What's up with people bashing duffin?
>in a powerlifting thread
I'm doing Nuckol's 3x a week bench intermediate, and I'm coming up to the last session where you either do a 5+ AMRAP at 85% to set your new max, or you test your max directly. If I'm pretty sure I can get a higher 'max' on the AMRAP should I do this or not?
>>37516506
Amraps offer inflated maxes in my experience. Do you want a real max or an inflated max?
>>37516506
When thinking of powerlifting specificity surely it's better to go for a 1 rep max?
>>37516440
Which one of his squat programs are you on? I don't like his 3 day ones.
