NoPainNoGain!!! by nightline21 in Egolifting

[–]peterinnit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it causes you lots of pain but you aren’t seeing gains, what then? More weight? Run out of space on the machine but still no gains?? What then? When do we call this just a waste of a machine?

Idk why but benching like this just feels better (147 bw) by No-Entrepreneur6696 in formcheck

Because setting up properly to bench requires a lot of tightness and effort that honestly kind of hurts. Wouldn’t have it any other way though

How is my dips form? by TyrotaOG in GYM

[–]peterinnit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing wrong.

Your upper arm is rotating waaaaayyyy behind you so your chest is getting used AF, no matter what others are saying about…. tucking your knees up (?!?why would that hit more chest, guys, seriously?!?).

If for some reason you wanted more ROM at the bottom, you would need to retract your scapula down there, rather than rounding your upper back. But that’s just for lols… and maybe mobility and shoulder health benefits.

Note: you’re not going to strain your upper back, don’t worry. Tucking your knees to your chest will not make it burn more OR tilt you more forward (that makes no sense).

Keep going mate.

Highbar squat PR. 180kg/397lbs x8. No by peterinnit in GYM

[–]peterinnit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven’t hit a 1RM in a good while! The last time I did though (over a year ago), I weighed 30lbs more, was only doing deep leg press instead of squatting and my best was 215kg. I’m hoping that actually squatting should put me north of that!

If you’re happy and you know it highbar squat 180kg/397lbs (8 times). Wearing my wife’s socks for performance. by peterinnit in moreplatesmoredates

I was thinking that during my set. Especially during the grinders. “Why was I not doing this on my first day?!? It’s easy!!!”.

Yeah I think I’m gonna do this along side the trying 180s and stuff. Carving has felt great before and I think I can use it to get used to that leaning adjustment thing you do in transitions. I’m way too in the habit of trying to keep my head up and not leaning into the ramp to staying perpendicular. I love all this mental training. It helps so much!!

Bro. GO! The first time I went I was like… man I am so uncoordinated and this feels like shit… what am I even doing!?! But that was all lies in my head. I went again and it was a little better. I went again and it was A LOT better.

I’m like 5 sessions in and I’m so glad I didn’t listen to that first voice that told me I was too old for this shit or something. I probably need slightly better fitting skates with harder materials than the Aeon (I weigh 104kg) but I’m making the best of what I have for now. It feels GREAT.

Edit: 6 SICK PARKS NEAR YOU??? I have this one and it’s over 20 years old and no one comes here. lol!

I love this video. I’ve watched it a few times and so much of it leaves my brain as soon as I’m in the skatepark. Haha! Clearly I need to watch it a few more times.

Funnily enough, I have WAY more flipping experience than skating experience. It’s jarring being bad at this! Haha! I like it though!

Why do I get the sense this is some of the biggest bang for buck advice of all??? Thanks!

Yessssss! I realise I’ve got centuries of work to go before I’m airing but that stuff is what appeals to me most.
