    Looks solid. I cannot believe you can squat that wide. My groin would tear in 2 and my hips would feel like death.

    Sheiko 29 Week 2

    Sumo Deadlifts
    365 3x5

    Bench(all paused)
    6x1 125
    6x1 145
    6x4 160

    DB Flies/DB Flies
    10x5 25

    BB Rows
    135, 155, 175, 200 x5

    In and out in about an hour, maybe 75 minutes. Deadlifts were easy besides from my hands being sore. Get the videos up later. I'm also starting to realize why many people prefer to pull singles as opposed to reps. Set up is everything and I'm really noticing it now. Some reps were extremely easy while others I struggled with because my set up was off.

    Did this session without a day off because of Halloween so I'll get two days off do Friday's session and get two more days off. Going to need it because Friday is the first day in 29 that has two squat sessions. (one not being front or pause)

    I squat the same width as I pull which happens to be the exact width of the platform/rack. doesn't really bother me on my heavy sets, lighter weights at that width actually feel worse.

    thanks, my raw squats are feeling weak tho, gotta put more emphasis on them. i try not to grunt so that I can keep a strong breathe and continue pushing into my belt.

    also today sucked because my waist is so thin my belt kept slidding down :/ need to put on 5lbs or so

    Do you feel after you bought the belt and started using it, lifting w/out it is really difficult or feels strange or anything? Like are you very dependent on the belt?

    I'm completely dependent on the belt for squats. I bought the belt from bestbelts back in April. Then I ran starting strength and went to a 340x5 squat within a month. I could link you to my SS log. I also got to a 345x5 sumo dl probably from adding a belt aswell.

    3x2 195
    2x2 210
    2x3 195

    DB Lunges/Flies
    10x5 20

    Not the best day. Got to rectify what caused a horrible session so no need to complain on here. However I did cut deads a set short due to one of my callous filling with blood. No idea what was up with bench today, it was incredibly hard though.

    there's always a week in a sheiko cycle where you feel like complete ass. Happened to me in my 2nd cycle and I know Ben has those days too where he was like "**** THIS" but managed to gut through. Just the way it goes with that much volume.

    edit: don't forget on the really ****ty days drop the weight 5% if you need to.

    thanks i didnt even consider dropping the weight. seems like there's not any days that have two squat sessions for the rest of the cycle, so hopefully next week is easier(looks that way). 37 doesn't really look any harder either, aside from the 5-10lb increases.

    Conventional DL
    225x3
    275x3
    315x3

    OHP

    115x3
    115x9

    See title, Sheiko definitely isn't for me. I absolutely hate feeling weak all of the time.

    Pretty good start, really need to work on my conventional form. So please critique the **** out of my video of my horrendous form. The weights were easy though, was going for 3+ on top set but I ripped my callous again.

    Doesn't look like you're setting your lower back much at all for those pulls. You're digging yourself into/under the bar, which is good, but you're putting yourself in a weird leverage-state. In that position, your body basically has no choice but to pull forward and shoot the hips up. With conventional, you kind of have to think about the motion as "pulling back" moreso than you would with sumo.

    Anyway, lol at the program change again. I think the point of Sheiko is to make you feel like trash for the first two cycles, then by the time 32 comes around your body is overcompensating so much for the workloads that you have no choice but to transcend to the next level.

    I understand your strife though. If I wasn't going to feel weak all the time regardless of the program due to my phucked eating/sleeping, I'd probably share your sentiments.

    lower back doesn't really look "set" or locked in.
    and one of the pulls almost looked like you were trying to yank it off the ground, combine that with the right elbow not being locked out and you've got a biceps tear waiting to happen.

    Everything that was said above.

    Honestly looks like most of the weight is on the balls of your feet instead of middle or on your heels.

    Combine that with a massively rounded lower back and your whole body looking pretty loose, you have no choice but to tip forward.

    Lower back doesn't have to execcessivy arched, but you need to at least keep an eye on it to keep it neutral/flat.

    Well you just might not have the dimensions for it. Sumo may be your sweet spot.

    Also maybe try a lifting shoe with a small heel? I have used my oly shoes on occasion for deads and it puts me in a solid starting position, but it makes locking out a tiny bit tougher and increase ROM a bit too.

    If you could find a stance that keeps your lower back in a fixed neutral position but you have some rounding in your upper back I wouldn't worry too much.

    You may need a much more horizontal back angle to do conventional.


    EDIT: you're also over pulling at the end and hyper extending. Look how far back you are leaning on some of the pulls. No need for that and will kill you in the end.

    Well you can either get your hips lower to create a more vertical back angle, go more horizontal, or try using a foam roller and try to wrap yourself around it.

    Also lay on the ground on your stomach and try arching your back.

    You will really feel it in your lower back after a few contractions.

    Then try doing that while standing up.
