/plg/ - powerlifting general

How do you deal with spittle on the rack and floor?

That sucks a dick. Idk dude mine wasn't Osgood and I only did enough research into the condition to figure out it wasn't what I had.
Go back to an ortho or therapist if it keeps up I guess is the only thing I can say.

Do you know of any rehab I can do?

Costant erector/low lats pain on both sides of my back.
I have been training through it for a bit,I can endure the pain but my lower back feels very stiff most of the time.
I try to smash it with lacrosse ball every day,any other stretch I can do to unfuck my back?

>OP all haack
But Gibbs has the better diddylift tutorial. Plus his 305 moved faster than Haack's. Haack doesn't stand a chance, I'm afraid.

Lots of rest from things that irritate it obviously. Consistent icing. Stretching and strengthening the hip muscles, including the glutes.
That's about all I could say. Osgood is a whole different beast from most knee pain as I understand it.

Gonna repost in case the dude who originally asked comes back

It's a giant log that you step inside
You can then deadlift yourself inside the log

I'm trying to figure out how this is just better than doing a normal deadlift

But who cares when it looks cool and could make it into strongman?

Shut the fuck dino you loser

I think that, if you had a long hole to fit inside it'd be better than two small holes for each leg. Allows for more movement.

what happened to Izzy

So it's a hex bar shaped like a log?

It's a money making gimmick that's going to lead to my early retirement

That's what it is

Perhaps, but I was thinking of selling two editors
>sumo stance edition
>conventional stance edition

Guys I tried drawing something.

I've said it before in plg but Izzy is a FUCKING ASSHOLE whole bullied me for years and beat up my little sister when we were in high school and she had just started middle school.

It's okay but you drew the wrong sport

It's highbar, with Oly plates and a Chinese weightlifter by the looks of it

its supposed to be not directly behind, but slightly to the side

>highbar

> Oly plates

>Chinese

>weightlifter

When u guys squeeze glutes for squats is it just tightest at the top or u guys got it tight the whole time. I kind of relax em a bit on the bottom and on my way up theyre all flexed again.

Fuck off from /plg/, you retard.
Because it looks like a literal shitty trace of Lu.

>Fuck off from /plg/, you retard.
what about what i said was wrong

There's no need to be rude

i wanna lick her butthole while she squirms "

I messed up her head shape

So I drew some "other things" to make up for it

That is fucking disgusting my dude

delete your commnet

So I just got off the phone with Greg Page (who is apparently a pretty well known powerlifter) and he said after watching my squat video that my problem is a combination of weak hamstrings and not keeping my back tight.

He said it's definitely not that my back is weak, I'm just doing a bad job of keeping it tight and at the very bottom of my squat, I stop sitting back and my butt just drops.

I guess it's time to target my hamstrings a lot more and work on engaging my lats.

I'm actually training hamstrings too lately, realized my back is strong as shit and that I stiff-leg literally every deadlift after the first two reps while my hammies are ridiculous twink-mode bullshit

Yeah, I think I'm the same way. My conventional got over 4 pl8s with basically doing a SLDL since I was not really recruiting my hamstrings at all. I've switched to sumo and I think it's working a bit better now though.

Is your sumo also weak as shit? my max conventional is 230kg but I struggle with fucking 3pl8 sumo

You realise the primary mover on SLDLs is the hamstrings, right? Even more than the glutes, and even more than in conventional deadlifts.

Not when you round your back like me

my conventional is basically
>break ground
>slowly as shit struggling straighten legs while rounding back
>lock out fast as fuck using only back
You should see it, it's goddamn disgusting.

This was my first 4 pl8 pull from a while back.

youtube.com/watch?v=_kQCfLxCrJ4

Maybe a SLDL isn't the right way to describe it, but it's definitely all back.

Actually my sumo is blowing past my old conventional max. I've been doing it for 2 months so far and I'm going for a 1RM next week, expecting to put on about 30 lbs from my best conventional ever.

sketchtoy.com/67169603

Laughed too hard drawing this

you don't use your legs at all jesus.

I think I'm getting a bit better about it. Here's a recent 370x2 sumo pull.

your still just mostly using your back.

sketchtoy.com/67169621

...

Yeah, like I was saying here I think my hamstrings are weak as shit and I need to strengthen them. My sumo definitely looks better and involves more legs than my conventional ever did though.

Look at the one above

Ok I like the other things.

Here's reference photo

>tfw Lego is more attractive than you

I am glad you are self-aware, this is a rare trait in a womeme

HOEP YOU ENJOY
sketchtoy.com/67169661

Ah I see that you're being patronising, a common trait in... meme.

You don't understand, the muscles that raise your back are your hamstrings and glutes. The hamstrings are specially the most important for the SLDL. Rounding your back doesn't change that.

Your back muscles don't raise your back. They only pull the bar towards your body and straighten your spine. What raises the back is, again, hamstrings and glutes.

If your SLDL is your strongest deadlift, your weakness is not your hamstrings, That's your strength.

trip on asslad

I want to draw a picture but I need a reference photo of you kneeling down, looking up the the camera with your mouth open and tongue out

no questions pls its for art

>when you sell textbooks you have not used in 2 years and will never use again for $150

based chegg

swimmer-user from earlier. same problem. My sumo is a lot better than my conv in terms of leg engagement, but when the weights get heavy it's pmuch all back.
WHAT ARE THE BEST GLUTE EXERCISES FOR EXTERNAL ROTATION I GOTS TA KNOW

So are you saying based on my video that my hamstrings are my strength? How come Greg Page (guy with over 500 wilks) just told me my shitty squat form is from weak hamstrings and lack of lat engagement?

>worrying about weak points at your level

No just fuck off, literally every part of you is a weak point and a weak muscle Try actually focusing on good form and bracing technique, because both are complete and utter shit, which is why your squat is complete and utter fucking shit

Esmeralda?

Yes?

I know my squat is utter shit. I'm getting stronger though and I want to know how to keep going without hurting myself since my back rounding on weights over 90% has gotten pretty bad.

Greg Page is wrong. If your SLDL is your strongest deadlift, there's no possible way in hell that your hamstrings are your weakness.

Your weakness are your erectors and quads. Add front squats to your routine.

Pro-tip: being strong does not equal being smart.

I'll take drawing commissions in return for Lewd pics. Don't have to be nude pics, just provocative pics.
I'd rather you email me them tho cause I don't want Sean to have them.

but if you want I will draw any picture you want as professionally as I can. Will take a few hours though and I'd be done later tomorrow.

>being strong does not equal being smart
amen tBh

I dunno about hamstrings, but lack of lat engagement is a huge problem for you

>Sean's an artist

I'm really not Sean. I hate Sean and he hates me lol.

this actually. since you go straight to a goodmorning i'd say it's probably weak quads because you can't keep tension and push yourself out of the hole, so you rock forward and put the weight on your hamstrings and back.

Sounds like something Sean would say

Sean are you having another episode of your dissociative Identity disorder?

because your working weights shouldnt be over 90%, thats saved for testing maxes, you should lower the weight, and work on volume with weights you can handle, to improve both form and progress without getting injured i.e. sheiko

Whatever, just hit me up

I'm only good at drawing female faces and the male body because that's all i ever seem to draw for whatever reason....

>one of Sean's characters calling somebody else Sean

We've gone full circle

Yeah, I know. I've been running C6W and that 305x4 was my "skills test" during week 5. Most of my working sets have been around 250-280 for the last 4 weeks.

>5x10 squats

Better than week 3, day 1 of gregs ntermediate 3 day bench program.
