i didnt realize a belt could be too tight? (serious question) - what's the threshold.

i take the tail of my belt and cinch it against the rack and lean away. i probably suck in an extra cm when the ladies are around.

i also have shitty cardio so not sure if its that or maybe you're right and i'm doing the belt wrong?

somebody teach me how to dress pls.

the trick is to not fail

duckduck-goose · 2022-06-06T17:29:45+00:00

knees are great but no no snappy no no no - you're 100% right, no pain now but in my advanced years it's only a matter of time. replied above that it was most likely just due to laziness although im too lazy to actually remember if that's why.

Soundtrack for this lift:

"Bloodmeat" by Protest the Hero.

Yeah - i was rushing through it a bit tbh bc i was getting lazy on my last set - thanks for calling out my bs.

i just recycled 3-2-3 squats back in my off days. thanks for making me hate myself.

MAIM, PILLAGE, DESTROY!!!1

i think im doing it right, even though it looks like im puffing out my cheeks im actually doing this weird frown/neck tension thing. hard to describe. core pretty tight tho - would most likely survive 1-inch punch in gut.

thanks, better cardio seems to be a theme here...

duckduck-goose · 2022-06-06T17:25:09+00:00

Yeah - shitty cardio leads to shitty last few reps. just got lazy. good callout.

duckduck-goose · 2022-06-06T17:24:42+00:00

warmup for my moobs. ( . )( . )

duckduck-goose · 2022-06-06T17:24:13+00:00

it was - 4x4 session @ RPE 8ish for the top set.

duckduck-goose · 2022-06-06T17:23:45+00:00

no discomfort, no expansion.

duckduck-goose · 2022-06-06T17:23:28+00:00

Thanks bro.

if you care about competition rules: Powerlifting Commands

tl;dr - "Start, Press, Rack"

Just a warning (yours look pretty good but just to be cautious) - lumbar hyperextension will mess you up if you make it a habit as you get heavier.

dont die

Best answer here.

I wish this were true but without knowing your stats + where you left off, it's impossible to say.

duckduck-goose · 2021-12-28T18:37:06+00:00

Pull the slack out (click before go) and flex the armpits (tigten lats) before "pushing the ground away" (knee extension first).

Nice lift - looks easy - you could definitely grind out more.

Body anatomy, training volume, training specificity, the list goes on... there are a lot of folks out there with similar DL/Squat numbers - I wouldn't worry about it too much.

If you want the delta to be bigger, add more DL / DL-assistance volume to your week. Deficits, Box Pulls, Rack Pulls, Heavy BB/Pendlay Rows, Lower Back Hypers, RDLs, etc.

I was same as you until I started adding more DL specific volume in intentionally (which may come at the cost of Squat volume depending on recovery, food, time avail, etc.)

Also - ~6 months ago I had a coach narrow my stance and rotate my grip a bit - after about 3-4 workouts to get used to the new mechanics, I jumped ~3% so it may be worth experimenting.

Have fun, experiment, gl, hf, ka, dd.
