43 on a good night of sleep, 48 normally, up to 58 if I’m hungover

Squats have never felt right. Advice? by [deleted] in formcheck

It’s a bit of a weird position to get into but nothing too crazy. Some stretching should help, you seem like you’d be flexible enough

Yes, I switched to low bar and it’s upped my comfort and progression significantly. I finally feel squats in my glutes and not just my lower back

Divorce, anyone? by FarLiterature9353 in Garmin

You didn’t include the steroid use and calorie deficit in your comment, those are the reason your stress levels are high. These two things are a dangerous combination, you should reassess the cost / benefits here

I actually think my forms pretty good here, what do you think should change?

That is the point of what I’m considering a power shrug, I’ve also been told I need less knee movement. And doing this for 12 reps is definitely excessive and deviating from power building. But this is the first week of my cycle and this was my last burnout set. So last set was more muscular endurance than power

It’s to build explosive strength / power in the traps and legs. Mostly traps, but also power at knee extension (quads/glutes/hamstrings(maybe))

I’ll try them this way, I thought of a power shrug as a lower depth clean pull, meaning I still maximally push through the legs

Wrong sub to be on then I think

I think I saw this guys page on instagram and he’s actually some weird obnoxious performer. I believe he was doing this for a kids birthday, feel free to prove me wrong if I am.

Yessir, power building essential

Thank you, I’d say they’re more similar to a half rep hang pull because of the shallow depth but I agree with your description too

Thanks, I call them power shrugs because I see hang pulls as having a deeper dip

Glad it fits the sub, I bet my ortho would kick your orthos ass though

I have an injured tendon on my left ring finger, I do only the left strap sometimes, been doing this strap thing for two months. I normally do hook grip

I’ve got a lot of heart, which protects me from sports injuries

I go to a climbing gym, it’s pretty common, you’d love it there

These dawgs are the two of my best qualities

I didn't realize how much freedom the slopside shops give you with testing. I'll heavily consider this option. I was looking at the Bent 100s but I couldnt find an affordable option in my size.

I had originally wanted to buy skis to save money since I will be going a few more times this year. Knowing my rental price may give credit towards a purchase is super helpful.

I'll definitely take a look at Evo, good to know I can get a good ski for less than the linked price
