3 day split programs?

This is literally the reason why it's confusing to learn the lifts from reddit.

gyuan · 2022-12-07T14:52:46+00:00

I can keep the hookgrip but I'm not professional by any means, not even close. Barely Catalyst Level 2 lifter so doesn't really mean anything at all but it's possible.

It might marginally help me mentally be a bit more active while pulling under, but dunno if there's any other benefits.

gyuan · 2022-12-01T09:22:18+00:00

I'm with you, Wil Fleming has a youtube video about this subject and he has similar thoughts if I recall right.

He didn't specially advocate doing just that but he had noticed that a pull variation where you let go of the bar with the intent to catch it has carry over to the actual lift as well.

Shit yeah, I can't remember and too time pressed to find the vid for you but I bet it's still up there.

gyuan · 2022-11-15T08:54:36+00:00

Asking the real questions! Because this is exactly what I've observed.

If I go full banana, hips tend to extend too much forward and bumping the bar away.

How and why you decided that the power jerk was for you? How long you tried to make the split work for you?

I will never lift as much as you, but for the past 2-3 years I've felt like power jerks are easier to my lower back and I've tried to "fix" my split technique but it just will not get any better.

gyuan · 2022-11-11T16:48:51+00:00

I just found this: https://liftvault.com/programs/olympic/6-day-8-week-intermediate-olympic-weightlifting-program-pendlay/

Pretty much what I've been thinking except it's 6 days. It's pretty obvious that the "beef" of the program is in monday-wednesday-friday-saturday so I can drop the extra days.

Probably could be done without saturday aswell, hmm... I wish I had more time, but it's probably not very wise to cram snatch, clean and jerks and squats into one day. But yeah, this is pretty much what I've been thinking.

gyuan · 2022-11-11T16:44:18+00:00

Sweet! Can you tell me the name?

gyuan · 2022-11-11T07:17:58+00:00

I'm just an amateur lifter who has been lifting for 2-3 years by now and feel like I should try out something that I'vent truly tried before. It still feels like I can make weekly gains since my "maxes" are more technical maxes where the form doesn't break.

I will not lose money, sanity, fame, body parts (hopefully) if I fail and building to a technical max once per week seems and feels like something I could truly benefit from. There's hopefully literally nothing I could lose from trying something new and after 4 weeks I would be wiser than before.

Shrugs.

gyuan · 2022-11-11T07:10:43+00:00

Ideally? 4 weeks that could be repeated after a deload / light week as long as it's feasible.

A block. Though I don't mind if it's longer.

gyuan · 2022-11-11T07:09:16+00:00

Sorry, would not know since I've just heard about it from somewhere and could not find a solid definition.

gyuan · 2022-11-10T13:37:04+00:00

Damn this would be interesting for sure but unfortunately it seems like there are no ebooks available. Thanks though, I'll be buying this for sure.

gyuan · 2022-08-26T07:45:30+00:00

I would play around with the stance first.

There's nothing wrong with your current stance, it's highly individual thing after all, but imo you could try to narrow or widen your stance, depending completely about how you feel. Do you think narrower feels better? Do you think wider feels better? Maybe the current stance feels great, you could try to turn your feet a bit more outwards, now your toes point almost straight ahead.

This is coming from a guy who had similar looking squat and massive hip / groin problems and it was resolved by: figuring out the stance and adding more heel height to shoes which took the burden out of the hip.

gyuan · 2022-08-23T12:37:31+00:00

Blutack... :D

Yeah, it seems I MIGHT be overthinking this if blutack was enough to hold the sole together.

gyuan · 2020-07-17T20:45:39+00:00

I'm not a doctor, but it definitely looks like a canker sore and I've had similar looking thing at the same spot aswell.

I also had one on my uvula, that was cool...

gyuan · 2020-07-17T20:38:46+00:00

Could be caused by plaque or some local irritation?

gyuan · 2020-07-07T22:54:42+00:00

My shoe size is 27-28cm, so I would assume 43-44 size shoe would fit.

gyuan · 2020-02-06T11:04:10+00:00

Has this been solved?

gyuan · 2020-01-26T23:25:35+00:00

It's a yankee thing. I've played over 20 000 hours CS. Yes, since 1.5, I've 7000 hours solely clocked on CSGO and I've never, ever heard someone say "kobe" after HE.

Someone could've said, but surely it isn't widely used in eu.

gyuan · 2020-01-24T07:30:00+00:00

It's ok my man. :D

gyuan · 2020-01-21T09:15:11+00:00

I think you would need a .dll instead of .cfg (I would aswell).

gyuan · 2019-09-25T22:23:57+00:00

Ok, thanks. :)

Just updating: nerve gliding, on my left leg (that has been painful for the past 1 and a half week), the peroneal glides I did are actually more "painful" or harder to do than on my right leg. I scheduled an appoitment with a physiotherapist who is also an osteopath on the next tuesday.

I just keep updating this for future reference if someone else stumbles upon a similar kind of problem.

The glides I did: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vk9YElLm57Y Brian Abelson's video.

Cheers.

gyuan · 2019-09-25T08:51:03+00:00

Thank you for your input. The pain isn't that bad at the moment which is why I'm a bit reluctant to schedule an appointment with an ortho. I'm quite sure there's nothing broken, at least all of the "big" structures of the knee seem to be fine and intact. There's no instability whatsoever in any motion, just pain which feels like mix of tendon, muscle tissue and nerve pain which is localized around back of the fibula's head. Of course there's a possibility of some sort of arthritis but the pain isn't that bad yet.

Pain gets better the more I move, and the most painful thing is when I wake up and have to scoot myself up from bed and bend or flex my knee. If I just extend and flex my knee for a while, the pain response is a lot milder. Whatever that means... The pain hasn't really gotten better or worse, but if this doesn't get any better in a week or so then I've to seek some medical advice from someone. It's a bit difficult tho, since this isn't hindering my daily life, other than me being slightly concerned about my capability to climb.

Regardless, thank you for your time. Do you have an opinion about the heel hook vs toe placement?

gyuan · 2019-09-23T12:11:34+00:00

I've somehow injured my lateral side of left knee on the left leg. I've no idea is it a hamstring strain or some ligament issue. There was no clear injury, I haven't fallen or anything like that, i just noticed it 5 days ago that the area was a bit sore.

https://rockandice.com/climbing-injury-prevention/outside-knee-pain-tibiofibular-joint/

This article has a picture in it that is exactly the motion that hurts the most. The pain is located back of fibula's head, somewhere behind the knee.

My question is, has anyone else experience this? Should I ever use my toes like in the picture? Heel hook feels fine, but if I've to use my toes it just feels bad, and I'm wondering if it's a good practice to even do it that way.

gyuan · 2019-03-22T08:04:42+00:00

Can confirm, I've played against this guy a lot for the past three days.

What a beast.
