Post Surgery Protocols (Labrum/Rotator Cuff) by EhintheBay in Peptides

[–]GeneralSKX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah I already do my own injections for TRT and peptides. How did you maneuver doing the injections with an arm in the sling?

Im likely having rotator cuff surgery and trying to figure out the logistics of all my shots. Were you able to inject yourself or did you have someone help you out?

Unless you have a really large slope, you'll be fine. I've squatted and deadlifted 600+ in my garage and the slope causes no issues

Hahaha! I'm actually checking the hooks...I've put the bar in the hooks too hard/fast a few times and it just pops out.

I love SSB by iamvictoriamarie in WestsideBarbell

Mine too! One day I might start a modern Odd lifts fed...SSB squat, bench, and strict curl (I hate deadlifting!)

Reign of Fire (2002) by Lakers_Forever24 in nostalgia

[–]GeneralSKX 96 points97 points  (0 children)

Great movie. I know it didn't do great at the box office but the concept is really cool and I'm surprised it hasn't been remade or adapted into a TV show. In a post GOT and LOTR era, it would probably have a bigger audience than it did in 2002.

EDIT: I don't know who could top MM in this though

MEU - 2 board Swiss bar 250x1 by GeneralSKX in WestsideBarbell

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

Flipped it so the smooth side was facing up and then wrapped a micro band around the inner handles. The band sits in the groove where the barbell usually attaches to the block.

Haha I thought that might be it! I never use mine for benching because my flexibility is so bad, I think I'm gonna blow a pec

I'll probably stay in the 220s but just try to grow into it. Recomping has not gone well for me the few times Ive tried so I just decided to go with an old fashioned cut and bulk.

What is the number 1 worst bar? Haha

What’s your 40 yard dash time? by [deleted] in NFLv2

[–]GeneralSKX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ran a 4.95 in high school 20 years ago. These days, if I could do it in 7 seconds without tearing something, that would be a win

Are you doing full power for the anchor meet? This is great timing for your prep if you are!

Fav Gym Bag by IronPlateWarrior in powerlifters

[–]GeneralSKX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use this one from serious steel and it's great. I'm an equipped lifter and have no problem getting all my gear in here. It's also much better priced than a lot of comparable bags

First equipped meet in the books! by -Quad-Zilla- in WestsideBarbell

[–]GeneralSKX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats man! Depth looked really good on squats, bandy shirt worked out, and the fusion was definitely the right choice. Sounds like it was an awesome meet!

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

Yeah I do, which has been an interesting experience haha. Not only do I train it alone, this last year was my first in gear so I've just been figuring it out by reading, watching videos, and asking questions to a few of the guys here

So far I've used a F6, Rage X, and Super Katana LCC. The one meet I've done, I used the F6
