actual first for trappy unironcally kys

2nd for trappy will reply to your post

I would just like to say

thank you Eric Cressey, you beautiful bastard

Why, what'd Cressey do

They're not terrible, especially if you hold your last rep of your heaviest set for as long as you can. If you want to improve grip strength, farmer walks are good, so is supersetting a pull with a static hold (like just hanging from a pullup bar) and squeezing it as hard as you can. Other than that, hammer grip curls and chinups and wrist rollers are good.

'snapping hip' has been bugging me for ages as part of the constellation of hip issues I've been having, and I found a post of his on t-nation where he explains the relationship between snapping hip (perceived as hip flexor pathology by most people) to actually be ITB related.

So I rolled the shit out of my ITB with a lacrosse ball and my hip felt better than it had in months. He also has a really good explanation of femoral anterior glide which explains a lot to people who think they always have tight hip flexors

my grammar is a shitshow, I'm going to bed

anyone who says chinups are a better back exercise than pullups is one big pseudo-biomechanism memester and has never tried both himself.

Thats a factoid for ya to start the thread.

This is my detailed opinion.

I'm not going to read that because it would take me an hour due to it being a wall of text of pseudo-biomechanism with fancy words.


You need to add conclusions to your stuff, instead of just copying lines from studies.

Conclusion: pullups da king, chinups lel

You mean where your femur hits the top of your hip?

>Thats a factoid for ya to start the thread.
not a powerlifting factoid tho Tbh is it
i also dont agree

no one is going to read that

The sections on pullup vs chinup and closegrip vs widegrip are pretty short.

Some people are interested in learning more. Why would I not share the knowledge, research, and opinions, just because some people don't like reading?

>Some people are interested in learning more.
its a vertical pull
you see what one you like and you do it, it doesnt even matter
its also not powerlifting related

I noticed a decent amount of forearm growth and increased grip strength after I started doing a lot of bro style bodybuilding work with dumbbells.

Strength training is powerlifting related.

Strengthening your back and chest are powerlifting related.

Your post is a shitpost and you should be ashamed of your actions.

What does this post have to do with powerlifting?

Hitting depth in doubles :)

Managed to get one more revolution of knee wraps too :)

go back to /stg/

>you should be ashamed
stop with the projections

you gave him attention so he was successful

>using a belt
baka why don't you just buy a forklift instead

Strength training is powerlifting related.

Strengthening your back and chest are powerlifting related.

Your post is a shitpost and you should be ashamed of your actions.

Very nice and clear depth. :)

Go back to Veeky Forums.

Wait he's using a BELT?
lmao just noticed it he tried to hide it LOL

Fucking cheater, and he even has the GUTS to talk shit about ROIDERS who didn't do nothing.

>muh belt bracing for me isn't cheating

Lelele me using a gundam to lift the weight ins't cheating 8DDD

I understand using wraps and suit but a belt is indefensible. I bet he can't even get close to that weight without a belt to hold his torso for himself.

I without jesting agree with this post. Even if you might not.

I without jesting agree with this post. Even if you might not.

Fuck you

I without jesting agree with this post. Even if you might not.

>Go back to Veeky Forums.
i dont leave plg lad
but you could go back there too, i wouldnt mind

You took a cheeky joke and ruined the shit out of it.

Some of us aren't millionaires who can afford forklifts to get a bigger total. Don't bully george about it.

'no'

I without jesting agree with this post. Even if you might not.

You forgot to turn your trip off, millionaire Chad who's no longer tied down to a single girl.

This is one of the better reaction pics I've seen in my time in this shithole.

>joke

Nice comeback

>gtfo
>I don't want you go pls

I without jesting agree with this post. Even if you might not.

I did an owg meme straight after. Will you forgive me?

>gtfo
>I don't want you go pls
is this projection because its what you done
LMAO

I without jesting agree with this post. Even if you might not.

>squat deep
>think deeper

Except my comeback was smart. You implied I should go back to /stg/ because my post was unrelated, I implied you should go back to Veeky Forums because you do nothing but shitpost worthless content.

Your comeback was literally just "no you go ):"

Also stop replying to me until you have permission to.

Will we find out the answer to this question before the next episode?

nice fat fucking gut there, randy

I'm liking this new meme that is on par with pancreatic cancer

I without jesting agree with this post. Even if you might not.

>when you're just trolling girls on tinder and your friends think you're a chad fucking sluts

>fell right into my trap of posting a picture with the bulge front and center

>I implied you should go back to Veeky Forums

>no im not going, you go :(

>admitting you're done fucking with her

What the fuck bruh. You shoulda just rode it out as long as you could until you got blocked.

Please refrain from contacting coach trappy directly in the future until you receive your permission pass.

ok trapp

Yeah, but you are better off doing wrist curls or something as an extra instead of only deadlifts for wrists

Did day 1 yesterday, before doing day 2 of my other program.
Picked a squat weight that felt okay an about what I would expect 45% to be. Did LB because I didn't bring my wl shoes.

>glute bridge
On the ground or on benches?
>Banded 5ct Ps. Free Squat
Band around knees, 5ct descent, pause, 5ct ascent? Free squat as in no bar or anything?
>Goblet squat to box
I'll grab one of the benches at the gym, about knee height. Is that fine?
>single-leg balancing
Like in a hip airplane or standing straight up and down?
>BB squat (ps. Up)
Pause on the way up?

what are you stealing my post for you little shit

Please cum in my asshole paul

I'm gonna need an example image of the glutes in general before I can take decisive action.

>not been approved by the IQ filter.
that says more about the reader Tbh

If you use my words("I without jesting agree with this post. Even if you might not.") without asking for permission.

I expect to be financially taken care of. Or at least give me a (You) every time you post those words.

Ground. You can add a bit of weight if you want but it's not necessary.
Yeah around the knees. Normal eccentric and concentric, 5ct hold at the bottom. And yes, no weight added. If you're feeling saucy you can increase the hold time each week.
Box should be right about your normal depth or slightly above. Err on the side of high rather than low.
Just standing straight up and down for now. Open and closed refers to eyes open or closed. If it feels stupidly easy then try airplane.
Yeah pause halfway through the concentric.

Did Boris lose some weight?

eh's a breddy smarty guy

Don't shame me

REEEEEE

>box
We have some Rogue jerk boxes, maybe I can grab one of those if the bench turns out to be much too high.
>balancing
So one set each leg?

I have a question for you.

How do I get a really big chest?
My plan is a shit ton of dumbbell bench and flies.

%success of Sheiko? Also which are the optimal conditions to start it and to make it work?

Sorry I'm not sure why I didn't specify but it'll be 4 sets each leg. Best just to superset it with something else I'd say.

Why don't you like us anymore :(

Being quite strong (350 wilks minimum but 400 ideally), having relatively mature technique and a competition focus.

In my opinion, it's too specialised and boring for anyone who isn't competing to do.

This is the most I've posted in one day in weeks. I'm much happier for it.
It has nothing to do with any particular people. The internet just isn't good for me. I try to limit it to an hour a day now outside of work. It's a particularly slow day at work though today.

So why are there programs for people below advanced/proficient levels?

Can I do it anytime, like at home, or does it require reverse hypers to be done immediately before (or supersetted)?

glad youre doin well lad

I think intermediate medium load is good for people below 350 wilks. At least it's been great for me. It's taken my squat from eye-gougingly disgusting and ridiculously weak to kinda ugly and really weak.

Oh okay

Marketing. The beginnner program is pure trash. It's far far too easy.

>%success of Sheiko? Also which are the optimal conditions to start it and to make it work?
Lol.

If people reported those stats from HERE...

Not good.

Only experienced (350+wilks) lifters with no injuries, and controllable autism need apply.

>So why are there programs for people below advanced/proficient levels?
To sell the 12 dollar app, then personalized coaching, I'm sure.

I wouldn't go that far but thanks familia
Nope you absolutely MUST be that goofball balancing on one leg with his eyes closed in the gym.
Nah it doesn't really matter. Not a particularly important part of the program. Just to make sure proprioception is on point, which is an underappreciated metric imo.

sabres only back and hes bullying joe

top fucking lad Tbh lol

Okay.
Actually thought about that the other day - whether knee/elbow sleeves can help proprioception and how it can affect technique. Thoughts about that?

but trappy says I should do it?

Should I just keep going on texas method instead?

b8 post

Depends, why do you want to change?

I'm the guy you replied to. I'm on intermediate medium load now, squat is good enough while bench looks too easy though.

No I mean the chat lad. Obv this place is shit

Went lifting with a friend yesterday. Here are my findings

Bench sucks, deadlift sucks, my ass is already sore from the Bulgarian split squats, I'm alarmingly weak

You forgot that squats suck

???
I'm not smart enough to give an informed opinion on that honestly. My gut reaction is to say if you have problems with technique it might help for a couple weeks but I think you'd adapt to that input pretty quickly and end up unconsciously blocking it out.
If you were really mindful about it it might continue to help but I'd say benefits to kinaesthetic awareness or proprioception would be pretty minor either way.
Same concept. I don't have a problem with any of the people there really, I'm just happier with more time away from the computer. Plus it was causing me to stay up way too late. I mean it wasn't really, it was me, but you know what I mean.

that's hwat happens when you stop :P

Don't worry mate, you're gonna get married, have a kid, and then you'll get your automatic extra 100 lbs added to your total via Dadstrength

lmao.

he will have a kid, stay up most nights and lose all his gains.

it is unevitable, happened to all my lifting friends who had kids

See the picture in this post tyvm

Sheiko definition of beginner is not the same as Rippetoe's.
A beginner for Sheiko is someone who's starting to actually compete in powerlifting and has some decent stats. He has the table somewhere on his forum.

Basically, it's something to do after TM. Though it can replace TM if the trainee did SS for a long time and squeezed all the linear gains out of it as much as possible.

Bench Press, lots of volume. DB Bench and flies are fine as accessory.
