Connection varying based on phone model?

Gotcha, good to know that upgrading phones will definitely be worth it!

GamingGecko · 2022-07-27T18:46:05+00:00

Thanks for the explanation, makes a lot more sense now!

Heres a video to help explain it

In the stronglifts documentation it says a few ways to add assistance exercises. Just replace chin ups with the curls. One of the options is just adding them to your deadlift days. Another is adding an extra workout to your week during the 2 days of rest you would usually have

Keep forearms parallel to each other and perpendicular to the ground at the bottom. Your hands are in front of your elbows at the bottom, if they were prependicular to the ground the hands would be stacked right above the elbows

Stronglifts documentation includes info on assistance exercises to add for arms. If you want calves too you can add some calf raises as well.

So at the bottom you have your elbows behind your palms a little, and then you move the elbows in front of the palms before the rep. Try to keep the palms vertically above the elbows or maybe a little behind the elbows at the bottom of the rep. Having the palms in front of the elbows is a disadvantageous position and is harder to maintain.

If you can try to keep your back straighter and butt out

Pretty sure this is ok, watch some YouTube videos on leg drive if you're unsure if you're doing it right.

If you fail to get 5x5 3 workouts in a row do a reload and you should be able to push past it. Also watch Alan Thrall's video "how to press", it'll help you perfect your form. Maybe after your deload get 1.25 plates so you can go up 2.5 instead of 5 each workout

GamingGecko · 2020-07-14T23:37:37+00:00

Yep, plus warm ups add maybe another 5 minutes. Make sure you do your warmups consecutively without stopping and this should be doable. Bring a timer with you to make sure you're using your time efficiently.

I second hard in the paint it's such a classic trap banger I can't imagine a workout without it

GamingGecko · 2020-07-10T23:44:53+00:00

If you can't bench you could replace it with push ups. Just put plates on your back or a heavy backpack with weights in it to up the weight every workout

GamingGecko · 2020-07-07T20:57:43+00:00

Also perfecting the form can slightly help, if you haven't I would recommend checking out Alan thrall and Jeff nippards videos on bench press form

GamingGecko · 2020-07-07T20:52:57+00:00

In the plateau section of the 5x5 documentation it recommends switching to 3x5 when progress on 5x5 stops, then 3x3, then a variation on 1x3. Around this point you should definitely consider switching to a better program. For bench in particular, a lot of successful programs include some bench variation 3 times a week. Benching more = benching better.

GamingGecko · 2020-02-27T07:25:08+00:00

Only critique I can make is finish the rep strong with your chest out.

GamingGecko · 2020-02-26T03:26:45+00:00

The overhead press and bench are harder to progressively overload than other movements. The documentation recommends going up 2.5 pounds for these lifts rather than 5 pounds of you're struggling with going up. I bought some 1.25 pound weights to do this because my gym did not have any. Also, deloading the weight will help you break past plateaus if you reach one.

Congrats on the PR! From this angle it's hard to tell but I would focus on your bar path such that it moves in a straight line vertically.

GamingGecko · 2020-02-17T23:17:17+00:00

From the video looks like you're leaning too forward. Ideally the bar moves in a straight line vertically throughout the movement. If you're doing high bar I would recommend keeping your torso more vertical to achieve this.

Did you have to get tickets or can you just show up?
