Genetics

Many people are unbalanced genetically. Just keep working them. I can do certain lifts on par with friends that lift 2x as much as me on most other things.

I've been doing a few regular static stretches after every workout, but I don't think thats whats helped. Whats mostly helped is doing the actual lifts. If you can't even get into the position to do...

Honestly, you probably just have poor flexibility and bad posture. I have had this issue my entire life too. I use to not be able to get my hands back far enough to hold the squat bar on a high bar...

Everyone else already answered the question but maybe this will give you insight for future questions....

As someone else mentioned, muscles are dumb. They don't care why or how they are getting...

bump,

going again today so hope to resolve any possible issues!

The bar seems to be forward of midfoot and your deviating from a completely vertical bar motion. You can see it most apparently when your bar is being taken around your knees..

The TL;DR is:
Can you guys take a look at this video of my LOW-BAR squats . Any pointers? This was on my last heavy set. I know I'm fidgeting before start more than I should be. But I'm still trying...

Currently I use Under Armour cross training shoes I bought a few years ago. I'm just now realizing these might not be the best type of shoes for compound like squats/deadlifts/etc.

People on here are REALLY big on taking multivitamins. I'm just wondering if it's because of bro-science or you guys know something that dozens of researchers and experts don't.

It's been shown in...

Talk to your doctor about getting prescribed an inhaler. It's might likely be exercise induced asthma. I have chronic bronchitis but otherwise very healthy and robust lungs. Every year though I come...

Disclaimer: I am not a doctor.

I do have a medical background in biomedical engineering though and I naturally research alot of topics. Anti inflammation medicine is good for pain if you are just...

I have had the same exact thing and know others that have. It's very common I believe. Unfortunately I don't have a great answer but I can tell you what worked for me. Lay off the exercises that...

It seems like this has been asked multiple times without an actual answer from anyone. The real question is what is considered bad pain and what is considered good pain. Not doing anything 'through...

No advice?

At this point the swelling has gone down again and there isn't much pain. However there is still a lump (albeit alot smaller now).

I guess this is the thread that refuses to die and keeps getting bumped for rib injuries, so I will give it a bump.

Did any of you guys have a big lump with any of your tears? I'm thinking I have...

I was wake boarding 2 weeks ago and on one of my jumps I fell on my BACK left side ribs. I felt a very uncomfortable feeling in my FRONT lowest rib, but at first didn't think anything of it. I have...

Well I went to the ortho doctor and first thing they did was take 3 xrays. Then the doctor comes in. Feels around and has me do a couple resistance movement against his arm just like my family...

So what are you recommending I do to get this rhythm down? Or are you just saying keep on doing what I'm doing and it will come on it's own with more practice.



From my POV it looks like the...

Scheduled an appointment with an orthopedist that has worked for many professional teams (as you recommended). Last time I talked to them, they said their first opening was June. This time I said...

Well guys, I listened to all your advice and I have been working on my squats. As I mentioned earlier, I took the weight down really low at first to be able to do it, ut in the last weeks I've been...
