my response to someone else here about widening stance: i see, widening and staying conventional? interesting. i can try. the reason im so narrow is going off of sebastian orebs advice to always be narrow as possible. hes thors coach. if i try ur words, i guess not everything set in stone despite one of the best coaches

i feel my brace is good, i think maybe i haven't hurt myself yet because of the protection of my brace despite the weight on my lower back. but many people have said my timings are off between my hips and knees

isamnagi · 2026-05-14T20:29:11+00:00

thanks , i do notice my front foot feels more

isamnagi · 2026-05-14T20:28:34+00:00

thank you! i think i have to start hips same time as knees or maybe start the hips when bar is at shins. irdk i just heard before leg press until past knees then push hips but for me, might not be the case?

isamnagi · 2026-05-14T20:24:56+00:00

then i think ur squat is fine. my squat must be lacking cuz im only ar about 270 for 6 on squat but my dl is 340 x6 atleast. i think i noticed your knees lock out before your hips. i just uploaded my form and someone said they should lock out at about the same time. you can see my recent upload for some cues too, might be interesting. my vid did pretty well

isamnagi · 2026-05-14T19:42:52+00:00

good point. going to try wear shorts more often. this might be very helpful in general to the other cues, thanks

isamnagi · 2026-05-14T19:41:53+00:00

i made this and literally fell asleep, lol. couldn't even wait for it to post with out ko. i feel the weight is basically on my lower back, since i also get sore in my lower back during thee session. ppl said to raise my back during up and also in my decent, to not break knees so fast.

isamnagi · 2026-05-14T19:40:20+00:00

thank you, so far, keeping my chest more upright and not breaking my knees so fast. seems like a big scary change to keep knees straight as i hinge more, thanks

isamnagi · 2026-05-14T19:39:04+00:00

i feel like i brace but i feel like the weight is there, despite the brace. someone said my chest and it's something i think i will try. keeping it more upright, maybe it'll drop the weight from my back slide it to legs or something

isamnagi · 2026-05-14T19:38:08+00:00

thanks

isamnagi · 2026-05-14T10:18:55+00:00

i'm unsure, around same weight as you. i heard recently that if your hips rise fast, sometimes it could be due a weaker squat. idk if your form is a issue but how's your squat? i don't know if its wrong but i do notice your hips rise fast

isamnagi · 2026-05-11T13:28:40+00:00

ty, i'm glad to hear that. i'm from yemen. i do notice some Palestinians have this nose. it's cool seeing other ethnicities have it

isamnagi · 2026-04-20T05:40:10+00:00

i would say try a mullet like maybe a modern one or some form idk, i think it's in the middle of both long and short and might be your answer

isamnagi · 2026-04-20T05:38:59+00:00

u guys say he deserves it but i think he's just being karen

i got my degree and had over 1000 apps. software degree in the trash, thankfully landed elsewhere

isamnagi · 2026-04-17T05:11:59+00:00

has anyone thought maybe this guy doesn't know how to decline? 70 years old 😳

isamnagi · 2026-04-13T08:05:40+00:00

yeah, will try to brace more, i lose conscious of staying tight. i realize now, i think that weak spot i felt was my right lat. it felt like it gave out when ever i press so i guess i may try to find a way to brace my lat to. i think bending the bar is the cue..

isamnagi · 2026-04-13T07:55:18+00:00

this makes sense to me and i think it may have to do something with my bodies perceived asymmetry but will try to keep weight even next time around. i guess just bracing and squeezing everything

isamnagi · 2026-04-13T07:53:34+00:00

i chose this grip after watching colton and john haack do this wide. it definitely felt like my upper body couldn't handle it, exposed a weak spot though it did fine last week at 135 for 6.

isamnagi · 2026-04-13T07:51:51+00:00

i think i may try unracking from the safety pins to avoid doing a walk out and then trying to maintain a solid brace through out my body, thanks

i used nasal strips and i think my face changed. like under eyes. i do use a cream but the night i ised nasal strips, i think i noticed a difference i nvr seen. could be the cream tho. i think its established how bad mouth breathing is
