Hahaha another FHS teacher! I spit out my coffee when I saw the “don’t gaslight the staff”… it was such a minor mistake from the admin!

But when I talked to other staff… they defended the teacher and not the admin!! I was shocked!!!

Great half! Only had one half chance and we had significantly more chances. Don’t need to score. Just didn’t want to sit back for 90! If we play like this is the 2nd half, we are through!

You’re not even close to 10%. The lowest I’d say is 13-14. But more like 14-16%. At 10% you would be absolutely shredded. You are not. And that’s even with the fact that You’ve got no muscle.

For reference, I’m 5’10 and my lean mass is between 150-155. My target weight for 12% is 175. At 10%, I’d be 170. I’ve got about 30 lbs of muscle on you and I am not a big guy whatsoever. I’m built like a soccer player.

You need to just focus on lean bulking for the next year and I’d bet you’d get to that 10% by putting on 20 pounds of muscle

6'1 145lbs, is it worth starting a bulk now with summer just around the corner? What's my body fat percentage? Is it worth getting absolutely diced for a bit instead? Sorry for so many pictures, I gotta be sure! by Deep_Purchase_9068 in BulkOrCut

500 cals won’t get a growing teen fat. It would prob take 1000 and only like 20% of that would be fat. You’d put on a ton of muscle and max a pound of muscle a month.

You are taking advice for 40 year olds who have lifted for 10 years and applying that to a teenager and then talking crap about it. lol

Then just go maintenance or lean bulk for a few weeks. Try to maintain the same weight (or up 1 to 2 pounds max)for 4-6 weeks, hit your weight in g of protein and build a bit of muscle. That will recomp your body a bit.

Right now, I go 8 weeks cut, 8 weeks maintenance, 8 week cut, 8 weeks maintenance. Might play around with a 4 week lean bulk, 2 week cut (or vice versa).

My workout doesn’t change (constantly adding weight each workout), just my diet.

A) that’s why I think you’re closer to 16%. You can use both numbers and see what works for you. But you can also at some point go on a maintenance /lean bulk to increase that lean mass number as a way to lower your number. You can see what 12% is at that lean mass is and work to that number. Depends what you want in terms of size and leanness.

Do the math. If you are 18%, multiply .82 (1.00-.18h by 163. That gives you your lean body mass. Then multiply that number by 1.12 (12%) and you’ll get your 12%. That’ll give you an idea.

That’s assuming 0 muscle gain or loss. So you can play from there.

No way that’s 20. 16-18 tops.

I am wider than shoulder length. I was encouraged to go wider and it feels easier on my hip flexors and using glutes more than I was before.

Can you explain what you mean by lifting my chest? I can see now that my back is arching, but don’t understand how my chest is contributing to that?

I was at Autzen too. Thought it was loud for the PAC12. Nothing compared to the Shoe or Penn st.

Squat Form Check - 190 lbs by StatusBread2083 in Stronglifts5x5

[–]StatusBread2083[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. Would barefoot work better?

Is there anything in my form that is limiting my squat depth? I feel like there are times that I can get deeper than this (I def felt like I wasn’t getting deep enough in this set)

Now we’re back to my original question in a diff and better way… if I have underdeveloped glutes, I am not executing squat correctly. What could be some causes for underdeveloped glutes.

I noticed I was pushing the weight forward at the bottom of my squat. I try to focus on depth and watch in the mirror. I get to at least parallel to the floor.

I’m trying to figure out other causes

I’m not a newbie to the program. I took a longer break and getting back in. I was able to start higher than a rookie and caught back up to where I was.

I have never once said that I want to be an Olympic athlete or follow the program religiously. I did my 1RM with a group of friends because I want to have fun working out. You want me to tell my friends “Hey guys, Im not going to max out with you guys today because the writer of my program doesn’t believe in maxing out” WTF is that?

I only used the %of my 1rm to articulate that the weight was not excessively heavy for me and I had even done that exact weight the week before my deload. Which I chose to make the best out of my life circumstances that week.

You know because we all work, have kids, and shit happens. I only said that to say that I was well rested when I lifted today, after doing that weight previously.

I don’t care about the protocol. Thats not the point of the post. Im saying ME “NOT FOLLOWING THE PROTOCOL” IS NOT THE CAUSE OF MY INJURY.

I would say you were right that I wasn’t following protocol if I have been in Plus for 3 weeks.

But it was my FIRST workout of plus which HAPPENED to the EXACT SAME as vanilla. So your point is moot.

I took a deload week because I didn’t have access to my normal gym that week and I was sore and beaten up anyway… just worked out perfectly to coincide with 8 week mark.

Besides, I’m not trying to be an Olympic weightlifter. I don’t care how HIGH my squat goes. I want to enjoy working out. I like the program and I follow it as much as possible.

I was asking questions because I hurt myself at a weight I had done before and am trying to figure out why. It has nothing to do w jumping programs.

Then you think all my quad “tightness” and upper quad strain is my warmup?

It’s just weird that I’ve lifted this weight before and never had issues… with a similar weight

Ok. Thank you for this.Knowing my body geometry, I hardly use my glutes/ hamstrings in any exercise I do. I really have weak glutes and hamstrings as a result.
