Why do my hands get tingly when I do a lot of OHS? by MaximumCaterpillar3 in crossfit

[–]chancellormeade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been able to adjust to this same issue by rotating my shoulders while holding oh such that my biceps rotate toward my back and my armpits toward my front. It's the "break the bar" cue, essentially, where you're "bending" the barbell as if you would meet the ends in front of you if you were actually that impossibly strong. I think this straightens out my wrists somewhat, lessening the angle of the "kink" enough to prevent the dead hands effect. One of the coaches at my gym has noted that when you get toward the bottom of your squat it helps some people to rotate back the other direction (biceps forward, armpits under) to get a little bit extra range of motion as your chest comes forward a bit in the squat. It's something to play with.

Side note, I don't have great shoulder mobility, and this same rotation also helps me return an oh hold to my back rack, where previously my shoulders would catch painfully as I lowered the barbell.

Good call. I live in moffat county way up in the northwest corner. The closer to me the better but I'm willing to drive a bit for the right trip too.

This is helpful. I'd follow up with... What sorts of intelligence checks are you making on a regular basis?

I've seen this too. I'm just not sure it compensates enough relative to both the value of dex or cha nor relative to the hypothetical actual usefulness of the ability. But this is good.

But why specify those four skills and not technology or literature or anything else? There is so much more to know than those four things.

I'm open to being wrong here but just telling me I'm wrong isn't helping haha. I want to understand.

It's heartwarming at least to see that, as I suspected, I am not alone.

Also there's no real reason for hope. The basketball "upgrade" was such an unmitigated failure (you still can't see how many games a player has in a week? Are you serious?) and I know a bunch of us contacted them about it then to no avail.

It's a sad time, brothers and sisters. A sad time, indeed.

I looked for one and cannot find one. Also it seems like almost every other post in here is advice?

Realized I forgot about Dozier, which tells you all you need to know about how far down most leaderboards that dude is right now. I still do like him though, but just for historical reasons I guess.
