I think I might go down to 3x a week

[LegosInMyEgos]

I think I might go down to 3x a week

it actually seems like a good idea in all honestly, but we both know that neither of us are capable of only lifting 3 times a week.

Wednesday October 5th Week 8


Tried to bench today, every warmup rep of 135 and my pec got progressively worse..

ended up just doing a ton of shoulders, light weight crap, and stretching

[LegosInMyEgos]

since when did you hurt your chest

[KevinAlvarez123]

since when did you hurt your chest

something was happening to it over the past few workouts, the last one was particularly bad during the final set

feels completely fine until I actually try to press (stretching, pressure etc.)

[LegosInMyEgos]

that happens to me sometimes, I usually just ignore it.

I made a mistake and took a week off benching because of pain 1 time, worst decision of my like.

in b4 gew tells me to try harder

[LegosInMyEgos]

I am beginning to be of the opinion that oly lifting is ghey and is ruining my powerlifting.

It is also my highly educated opinion that snatching increases your risk of chest injuries.

I am thinking about just stopping.

Or I might just switch to pure power clean/snatching

In all seriousness. You need to stop going so heavy on the full lift. I think that is probably your biggest problem right now

The full lift feels all weird and I am not flexible enough for it. And the I feel like the flexibility I gained on the full lifts has ruineded my deadlift.

I agree with the first

Second part makes no sense, unless you try to deadlift like you power clean

I'm too flexible for my retard form now.

I can't do my retard form anymore, and my retard form is my strongest form.

Like you don't get the same stretch reflex?

[LegosInMyEgos]

Like you don't get the same stretch reflex?

I have this groove that if I don't hit, I am not moving alot of weight.

If it's a good rep, I will be nearly stiff legged, I will feel the stretch in my hammys, and the bar will stay close as I feel my hips driving through.

Lately, I have been taking forever off the floor, lacking force development, and I don't feel like I am driving with the hips because the bar gets away from me.

I don't really know what to tell you. Maybe a grip and rip would do the trick?

I could definitely see the the increased flexibility causing you to start unnecessarily low though
