No appetite. Haven't really eaten a substantial meal in days.

Everything hurts, especially my old lower lumbar injury. Feel weak, tired, and slightly inebriated. Absolutely no motivation.

I read this article on google. Figured I'd share it with you guys:

Does it sound right to you? That's...

You'll be fine. I take a week off in between cycles, whether bulking or cutting.

Keep resting, eat right, lift right.

You'll grow. It's not uncommon to drop a bit before making big gains.

It looks like you've got a ton of forward lean. Try tensing/flexing your abs/lower back before a rep and see if it's easier to keep your torso more upright. You also need to come down a few more...

Twice a week usually. Chest/back night and legs/core night (tonight). Sometimes I'll do them again the day after legs/core night (back/shoulders night). When I work them while they're sore I get a...

Kickbacks are more like double biceps pose cable curls. They're a contraction exercise, not so much for mass building.

My favorite mass builders are:

-Decline Skullcrushers
-Overhead Dumbell...

Squat deep. Really deep.

Your bicep works in two ways, lifting the forearm toward the bicep and supinating (turning the palms up) the wrist/forearm.

By combining the two movements the idea is you work both of the intended...

If you learn proper technique the risks of back injury are relatively minor. Go light and go deep and you'll be fine. Squatting form is more foot placement and depth. Dead Lift form is learning how...

I noticed my thighs were lacking so I've started my squats over. In my progress photos my Vastus Lateralis and my Rectus Femoris were the majority of my legs so I set out to start anew.

I warm up...

I believe it's like doing wide grip pull-ups wherein they target the upper portion of your Lats. At the tie-in under the arm-pit. That's where I'll feel them tonight anyway.

When I'm going heavy or my forearms are particularly tired. Otherwise I try to do DOH grip with higher reps to work on their strength.

/waits for Extremist Pullup to join the thread.

If they don't bother your shoulders than go for it imo. If they do hurt, then don't.

My bench max in high school - 195
My dead lift max in high school - 505

Now I don't know what either of them would be. Typically Dead Lift weight > Squat weight > Bench Weight though I know a lot...

I do these for mass:

Overhead Dumbell Extension (2 handed, go heavy and use deep controlled reps). These are great for the portion that comes down by the inside elbow.

Skullcrushers proper form...

The same reason I can flex my right lat but not my left. Mind-muscle connection.

Even if the muscle is flexing it's not doing the lift for you if you're using proper form so I wouldn't worry about...

I'd never complain about large traps. Just work your delts and your lats more imo to add to the overall hugeness. I dig the double tapered look. S'what I'm goin for.

Plus traps are one of the few...

Romanian DLs assume the Bent Barbell/Pendlay Row pose. SLDLS/SUMO DLS tend to have a stiff leg, either shoulder width apart or extra wide in the case of sumos.

P.S. As someone born in PA who now...

You can practice with your arms straight out in front of you too. Helps me balance on warm-ups/stretching.

Your problem sounds like a foot position issue combined with lack of experience to me....
