I thought you had mentioned one in your log when I saw the one he got us. You can feel it in the quads as you press and extend, but man in that start position, with your knees at your chest it...
I never even think about whip anymore since I haven't been oly lifting and my squats aren't heavy enough or fast enough to feel it. Did you have much wip in those 500+ squats at the meet?
I will let @Hyde get into the specifics there, I don't want to steer you wrong, but you can get there early and get all of your rolling out before the first flight, then warm up appropriately for...
Ok, so one more prep question for the experienced folks:
I have 20 mins in between lifting flights for warm ups. Now, I'll probably use at least half of that for my old man routine (foam rolling...
Taking a day off today, did a bunch of manual labor so I burned a shitload of calories but I skip today's workout and called out of my gym shift.
I'm just sore as ****. I managed to do some leg...
Yep, literally overnight. I did go all day without eating tho. Did a actually fast, well, I had two 10 calorie energy drinks 🤷
I'm giving myself a 4-Hour window and 2000 calories for the...
I don't know that it is too much, the RDL's looked a bit intense, but I don't remember your typical working weight for it. However if you did better on your last first week after deload from going...
Yep that’s it….with Spotos you’re stopping and controlling the bar just above the chest, and then that pause before you drive it back up. Like Akboom said you’re killing the momentum and having to...
Yeah it’s about holding the weight and killing all momentum and then push up. I would go with spottos. Hyde will have all the technical details when he gets here
Can anyone explain the difference / value proposition in spotto vs paused in a comp bottom position? I plan to incorporate one or both starting next week and I'm not fully sure how one is better...
Here is where my TMs currently lie in the app in case anyone has thoughts on adjustments:
Right now bench and squats I think are the closest to accurate. Meaning week 1 (5s) are pretty...
Do you think it was too much? I am still looking for balance in my deloads but volume is pretty low. Dropped BBB/BBS (10x5 or 5x10) entirely, replaced with a couple decent sets of the RDLs, then...
Yeah the pendulum like that really does get the gutes and hams, this is what I was mentioning regarding mine at home. However mine is also really good on the quads too.

I'm a ranch junky. for all the natural foods we keep increasing and all the work we put into having less preservatives etc, I still use a bit of ranch here and there lol. we used to make it...
Another succesful session in the books. I am really happy that I got that MRI, although it did not really give me any great news or increase the likelihood of surgical repair being approved...

It’s a homemade Italian dressing my wife makes with olive oil, red wine vinegar, a little Dijon mustard, a little lemon juice, and a lot of herbs and spices. If you want I’ll get her to write down...
Oh wow, that makes sense, I was thinking visibility but it would make sense considering compression shorts. The things you can forget in 8 years. I don't even remember that being a thing, but it...
Not if you don’t want to get disqualified in a raw meet for having a second layer under the legs of your singlet.
You can’t wear compression/biking briefs or anything - they take it pretty...
