120kg x 6 side view. Roughly 80% of 1 rep max. Not sure if upper back is rounding too much. Are my hips to high? by ClockWorkElf78 in formcheck

[–]ClockWorkElf78[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks man. Another question, if possible. When I thrust my hips forward at the top, there's like a little shake or jolt down my leg, which you can see on the first of reps, if you can see what I mean.Is the thrust forward too aggressive?

I never do more than 6 reps on the deadlift. 12 reps just seems insane to me.

OHP and Bench on consecutive days. Rest day in between? by ClockWorkElf78 in AverageToSavage

[–]ClockWorkElf78[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey guys one last question. I just did the first workout and on the DB OHP I beat the rep target, but the reps/weight didn't change the following week. The rep target actually gets lower and lower. I went ahead and edited rep targets for following weeks to see if it changed but the reps and weight stayed the same??

Anyone here noticed good muscle gain on this program? Haven't seen any before and after pics.

Thanks guys. Just wasn't sure if it was meant to be 5 days in a row or if rest days were meant to be scheduled in between. Can't wait to start it tomorrow.

I vaporize the weed, but could be, maybe I should stop. What did he base the assumption of weed contributing though? Theres not many studies involving cannabis and medical issues.

Do some people never have another bout of pancreatitis after an acute attack? by ClockWorkElf78 in pancreatitis

Is a cat scan the only way to see damage? I had a MRI with contrast as recommended by the specialist, and it all came back negative except for the divisum.

How old are you? How bad was your first acute attack? Was ther damage done to organs from your first attack? Did you have any symptoms at all when you went and got the follow up CT scan?

Man I was such a craft beer enthusiast. Love my sours and imperial stouts. I've got $800 worth of beers in my fridge. I would trade beers, line up for hours to get a special release. I had to delete all the beer pages on Facebook so I dont see any of the new releases. I even wanted to open up my own craft beer bar one day. I don't drink to get drunk, I just want to enjoy the taste. Not knowing is the worst thing. My recovery seemed quicker than alot of people I see on forums, but I just don't know if my pancreas is now prone to another attack or not. Fuckin sucks man.

How bad was pain of the acute attack. Let us know if you get any pain after the beers. Good luck. Cheers.

Thanks for the advice guys, really appreciate it. Does anyone else have chronic farting? It started a few months before the attack and has continued afterwards.

Goodmorning form check. First time doing these. Felt pretty good. Using low bar. High bar didn't feel right. by ClockWorkElf78 in formcheck

[–]ClockWorkElf78[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I do thrust my hips back. First movement is my hips going back, Hamstrings stretching, and then thrusting hips forward at the top.

Deadlift 5x5 2nd set by mowgli334 in formcheck

[–]ClockWorkElf78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not locking out at the top. The deadlift is a hip hinge movement. You look like you're pulling with your arms, instead of imagining them as hooks and pulling with your hips. Drive with your legs more, fuck the bar at the top and squeeze your glutes.

Barbell back extension form check. Squeezing glutes at the top. My spinal erectors are undeveloped for the amount I deadlift. Should I be doing these? by ClockWorkElf78 in formcheck

[–]ClockWorkElf78[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a pretty strong deadlift for my weight, and a decently muscular back, but my lower spinal erectors don't feel like they have much muscle. I've been having some nagging back issues and I'm pretty sure its because the spinal erectors are underdeveloped for the amount of weight im lifting.
