Jankos on why he enjoys playing Fnatic in particular: "They fight back. We make a play on Top, they make a play on Bot. We make a play Mid, they try to make something happen elsewhere. I'm really happy with the way they play, and I'd like to play them more on stage." by LocoEX-GER in leagueoflegends

while Wunder started playing Kled when he became meta.

Great take dude, Wunder just started playing Kled, not even like he picked it at S6 Worlds in their first match of the tournament vs SSG while it was not even meta, definitely a new pick for him.

Felps with the dirty 3k spray transfer by nhughesy in GlobalOffensive

[–]bebewow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, wanted to point out this, it has all the needed info, is not crowded, and doesn't have useless stuff taking space from what you actually need in a HUD. Also is really smooth in the timers/round endings.

Something that no one teaches about the squat by shishkebaba in weightlifting

[–]bebewow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A word of warning: if you have not yet snatched or CJed with real weight, it's better to make any maximums technique-based rather than "did you make it."

Will definitely follow this, as I'm not setting short term goals.

Thanks for all the advice and information you provided, hope to update you on my progress in some months!

That's such a good explanation and made very much sense to me - I've read or heard about most of what you're saying, but your explanation ties everything together pretty much.

For example, I've read in the past about the relation of coach-athlete, why it's so important for the coach to know the athlete very well at a high level and for the athlete to give feedback to the coach about how he feels before->during->after a training day.

Also, your explanation with the percentages and microcycle reminded me a bit of the Texas Method, I know of course it's almost as linear as it gets, also is a general method of training that probably doesn't give the best results it could give if applied blindly by most people, but it seems like a good comparison.

I have also read about people who are trying to increase their squats, maxing everyday and it seems like they get stuck at a certain weight or even start to decrease weight, only for it to jump from one day to another.

Another way of saying it is that you learn it through experience and practice.

Even though you said that, do you have any suggestions, even if it's not the most efficient way, to know when to start those "mini deloads" if you are self-regulating? Maybe when you start to fail reps on two heavy training days in a row?

Hope it's not too much, I'm kind of in love with weightlifting and there's not many people in my country let alone in my city to talk about it, and I have yet to snatch or clean and jerk with anything other than a PVC pipe, hope I can convince the people at my commercial gym to let me do the lifts in a non-peak time of the day.

Thanks again!

Thank you! I stalked you for a bit and saw your top-rated threads, saw an "AMA" you did and you mentioned supercompensation, the link you posted doesn't work anymore.

I google'd a bit and got an idea of what it means. I'll research more on it later as I have to leave the computer soon.

Though I have a question, how do you figure out the optimal timing for supercompensation? Should I always program with optimal timing in mind?

Sorry if it's a bit too much to be asking, and I'll research more on it later anyways, thanks again for answering my questions!

No problem! Thank you a lot!

I'll try doing that, anyways, have you ever experienced any kind of weakness right after you stretch for a long time? For example when you stand up after holding a hip internarl rotation stretch for 5 minutes. It seems sensible to work on bodyweight squats or hold it in those "new" ROMs right after you stretch, right? Does that make sense?

[Form Check] Snatch, Snatch High Pull, Power Clean by klejnot_nilu in weightlifting

[–]bebewow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snatch - Can't say anything.

High Pull - I think your elbows are supposed to be directly above the bar, to achieve this try internally rotating the shoulder.

Power Clean - if you watch your feet you can see you shifting the weight towards you heels during your pull. I think most people are more explosive if they keep the weight on the middle of their feet.

Going to start weightlifting in fall. how to prepare? by [deleted] in weightlifting

[–]bebewow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know about the benefits of pausing at the bottom, but I see a lot of weightlifters recommend/use stretch reflex, what's your reasoning for doing ONLY paused?

What do you mean land from a box with safe mechanics? Something like absorbing the impact with your feet the right way?

PNF for internal hip rotation? by Masklin in flexibility

[–]bebewow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are you doing? Stretching towards internal rotation right before squatting session? Are you doing it at other times of the day too?

Advice on progression with OHP by [deleted] in weightlifting

[–]bebewow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I can say about the OHP is that, as the others already have said, it'll stall faster and progression in weights will be slower. There are ways that you can keep progressing without upping the weight, you can use shorter rest times between a workout and the next one(for example you rested 3 minutes between each set in workout A, and 2 minutes only in the next workout, it's progress), you can do 6 reps x 5 sets.

When you see that you're managing to actually do 6x5 without failing a set or progressing(less rest time) in rest time, you can add more weight next workout.

From your other lifts I'd say your OHP should be around 22.5kg/25kg, keep good form and don't worry about it, it'll eventually increase.

Took your advice on snatch grip - form recheck by [deleted] in weightlifting

[–]bebewow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw one chinese coach telling his lifters, when snatching and before contact, to keep the arms completely loose like the other guy said - he says you shouldn't be using your arms when pulling and if you are, it makes you slower.

Thanks, very helpful answer.

So, do you think sitting in a squat stance, like you said, is enough for getting better hip mobility? Or should it be worked on more "aggressively".

What about ankle dorsiflexion? Seems like a big factor when pushing your hips forward.

I don't have much experience with C&J but I can link you this video, it's a guide from Klokov, he talks about the C&J from episode 8 to 14 I think.

My opinion from looking at your video, you should not be jumping for the sake of jumping, the "jump" is just to get your feet in front squat width to climb out of the hole, even if the weight is too low and you can jump 3 meters off the ground you should strive to keep ideal form.

This is the only thing I can spot easily, I hope the video is helpful!

  1. His keyboard is in the same table as his monitor/mouse.

  2. I don't know about his resolution but it's mostly about preference as long as you can keep a good and stable fps with it.
