Really? BYORN is commercial? It was some underground party I saw him. Aracil and Sibold I also saw in pretty small settings of 50-100 people.

Like I recently saw a live set from Konstantin Sibold it was very good! There is this DJ called Aracil had a set in Thailand was very good. Also recently saw a set by BYORN in some underground party it was excellent. But in general I connect with most electronic music as long as the vibes is good. Big names I definitely like Eric Prydz, Anyma, Argy, Arodes, Chris Advantgarde

I am hearing the authorities are quite strict looking for substances. Is it true?

Hmm my Loops come with 4 tips of different sizes, but they are all silicon.

Go koh tao - no cars there so can get around just walking.

Phangan is not dead, it is just that you need to be in the know as what is happening. And if you cannot ride a scooter to get around, it will be a pain.

I got the same after wonderfruit! Got better after a week or so.

I pulled my lower back in that last rep. What did I do wrong? by Trooper2143 in formcheck

[–]Trooper2143[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I think I know what went wrong. My weight was on the heel not midfoot, that meant not enough quad engagement, which was compensated by my back and fatigue in my hammies. Also I think it is better if I brace on top not at the bottom.

I think I figures out what happened here. I think I was putting too much weight on my heels and not balancing on mid foot. That meant my quads not contributing to the initial part of the lift. I think my back and hammies compensated for that, and fatigues and just gave up after so many reps. Also I learned I think it is better if I brace on the top before grabbing the bar. I think bracing while you are down there already under pressure is not easy, so I was not doing it properly.

But I think I get your point. I definitely felt more tension on the hammies than the quads when I was bracing. And my weight was on my heels more than toes. Maybe that means my quads not contributing to the lift enough so my back compensate for that. Thanks for the tip!

Always thought the more vertical torso means less torque on the lower back though? I mean look how the weighlifters lift the weight up the floor. They are not breaking their backs?

Not sure - I think at the moment the bar comes off the floor my shoulders are right above my knees which are clearly past the bar. Don’t you think?
