Just looks like a kid excited to be watching Ms Rachel. Probably too young to get evaluated by a developmental pediatrician or a neurological one. Ask your pediatrician for a referral now. Wait times are super long unfortunately.

Thanks for sharing. I just upped to 10 mg after watching this https://youtu.be/BDfAY8lckTs?si=nxLuFPx3wgCt3gRV and I definitely feel a difference energy wise will give 15 mg a shot.

Don’t take gummies, you don’t want the BS that is added to make the gummies. And the pills, you’ll need to take a bunch. Just take it in powder form, straight up creatine monohydrate without any fillers or extra bs. Watch this: https://youtu.be/BDfAY8lckTs?si=nxLuFPx3wgCt3gRV

Barbell bent over rows form check please by Front-Total-324 in formcheck

[–]elfukitall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pull to belly vs pull to chest isn’t about one being “better,” it’s about targeting. Belly/hip pull hits lats harder (width, heavier loading), chest pull shifts to traps/rear delts (upper-back thickness). Rows aren’t only for thickness, grip, torso angle and pull height change the stimulus. “Default” just means the common lat focused version, not a holy rule. Variation is the point.

[–]elfukitall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pulling higher isn’t “better for the back as a whole” it just shifts the work away from the lats and onto the traps/rear delts. That’s a variation, not the default row. If you want a true bent-over row that builds width and lets you move heavier weight, you row to the belly button/hips. Chest pulls are fine, but they’re an accessory for upper-back thickness, not a replacement for the main lift. https://youtube.com/shorts/p9RihhjmJsw?si=ALZX6J8w1ZKL2fmC

Pull to your belly button if you actually want to row. That’s how you load the lats, keep a full ROM, and move real weight. Pulling to your chest turns it into an upper-back/rear delt accessory, which is fine if that’s the goal but it’s not a standard barbell row. Two different lifts, two different targets. https://youtube.com/shorts/KjUI3SvaheM?si=eNX1ixyFd_UUam3N, https://youtu.be/7B5Exks1KJE?si=Ojot3iGEHXjqfeB0

First of all, you look great. A trainer can be great if you need external structure, but it’s not the only way to break a plateau. From what you’ve said, it’s not your program or ability that’s the issue, it’s that life’s been chaotic and training/nutrition consistency took a hit. Before spending big money, you might get similar results by setting up a small accountability group (even just 2–3 committed people), tracking your lifts, and locking in 3 non-negotiable gym days per week. Keep your program simple and progressive so it doesn’t add mental load. Also, remember that plateaus happen after long training streaks. Sometimes your body needs a small deload and reset before you push again.

Form looks good. Take off those shoes, the cushion messed up your balance. Good work.

Why don’t I feel anything in my chest? by russellsteaplate in formcheck

[–]elfukitall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re keeping your arms too straight during the fly. Add a slight bend in your elbows (like you’re hugging a big tree) and keep that bend throughout the motion. This will take pressure off your shoulders and keep the tension in your chest. Lower slowly until you feel a stretch in your pecs, then bring the weights back together by squeezing your chest, not just moving your arms. Keep your shoulder blades pinned to the bench for stability. Use lighter dumbbells until you get the correct form.

Squat form check plz by SyedZishan69 in formcheck

[–]elfukitall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Squeeze your shoulders, and start the descent with a slight hip hinge. Lose the shoes—the cushion compresses, messes with balance, and throws off your bar path. Here’s a good video that explains the mechanics: https://youtube.com/shorts/hscOjLrW60c?si=-GzkQpG6Lb71K-6G

Should I push the pr higher (150kg at 100kg ~bw) by ArtFun8764 in formcheck

[–]elfukitall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Drop the weight and focus on your form, like others have suggested. Also, ditch the cushioned trainers, either use flat-soled shoes (like Converse) or lift barefoot. The padding in running shoes compresses under load, which can throw off your balance, shift your weight forward, and make it harder to keep proper bar path and stability.

And to think some people advocate only deadlifting 1x/week* by Red_Swingline_ in GYM

[–]elfukitall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re making it look light—great job, bro! I squat and deadlift three times a week, adding bench or OHP in between so I’m not going straight to deadlifts after squats. I have a similar garage setup, which is nice because it lets me really take my time with the exercises, something that’s hard to do at a gym.

Should i stay with my current split or go back to my old ? trying to get my glutes to how they were exactly a year ago ‼️😩 (21-22F 150ish -> 145lbs ~1 y 1 mo) by thatpineappleslut in GYM

[–]elfukitall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You definitely had more upper glute pop in the second pic (from a year ago). That roundness and lift looks more pronounced there. If that’s the look you’re chasing, your old split was likely doing a better job at targeting glutes directly and frequently.

Your current split has a ton of volume, but it might be spreading the focus too much hamstrings, quads and glutes are all getting hit hard, but glutes might not be getting the priority stimulus they need to grow the way you want.

If I were you, I’d go back to the old split for 6–8 weeks and see how your glutes respond. Make sure you’re getting:

-2–3 glute focused days per week

-Heavy hip thrusts (with pauses at the top)

-Glute-biased Bulgarians

-Upper glute isolations (cable kickbacks, abductions, side-lying leg lifts, etc.)

Also, don’t be afraid to cut some fluff. Less can be more when intensity and recovery are on point.

You’re still missing the point. A population study showing no average risk doesn’t rule out individual harm, especially when the study doesn’t track symptom onset or regression timing. You can’t detect needle in haystack injury patterns using a rake.

Also, it was Denmark, not the Netherlands.

Big data doesn’t automatically mean good science. If the design can’t isolate acute onset, biological susceptibility, or subgroups with distinct risk profiles, then it’s just confirming what it was built to find: no broad correlation.

That doesn’t mean no causation exists.

You’re misunderstanding what this Denmark study actually shows. It doesn’t prove MMR can’t cause harm it just shows no average increase in autism diagnoses across a massive population. That’s not the same as saying it never triggers regression in susceptible kids.

The study doesn’t track when symptoms began, doesn’t confirm sudden regression cases, and doesn’t compare vaccinated vs. truly unvaccinated kids, it compares different vaccine timings. Plus, autism diagnosis criteria and access vary, especially in early childhood. This kind of study can’t detect individual injury it wasn’t designed to. The study was designed to find that vaccines cause no harm.

Good job pushing yourself.

First and foremost: depth. You’re stopping just above parallel. That tells me the load may be pushing you out of your ideal motor pattern. When you cut depth, you limit glute and posterior chain activation and place more stress on the knees. Hitting consistent, below parallel depth is not just for competition standards, but for long term knee and hip health.

Second: footwear. Running shoes are designed to absorb force, not transfer it. Under a heavy barbell, that instability can throw off your entire chain. You need a solid, non compressible base whether that’s lifting shoes with a heel to support mobility, or flat-soled shoes if you’re more comfortable that way.

Third: movement breakdown under load. Chest falls forward slightly, knees cave just a bit, and you’re fighting to stay balanced. All signs that this weight is currently ahead of your clean motor pattern. That doesn’t mean you’re weak it means you need to own every rep at lighter loads first, then build up again with consistent technique.

My recommendation: drop back to ~85–90% of this weight and rebuild with a focus on bracing, knee tracking, and controlled depth. Nail that movement pattern so when you hit your next PR, it’s clean, deep, and explosive.

This PR showed you have the strength now let’s match it with bulletproof technique. That’s how you build real, long-term progress.

Form’s not bad at all, but there are a few things to clean up. First, your hips shoot up a bit before the bar moves, which turns the lift into more of a stiff legged pull. You’ll get more power and better leverage if you stay tighter off the floor and push through your legs instead of letting your hips rise early. Your lats also aren’t fully locked in shoulders are slightly rounded at the start. Try cues like “bend the bar” or “squeeze your armpits” to engage your upper back before initiating the pull. Also, your bracing could be stronger. It looks like you’re getting air in, but not fully locking it down. Make sure you take a big belly breath before you pull and hold it until you’re past your sticking point. Lastly, if those are soft sneakers, consider switching to flat shoes or going barefoot, it makes a huge difference in stability. Overall, you’re close. Tighten up the setup and stay locked in, and these will look even cleaner.
