    You just have to find your groove (e.g., a change in technique, some exercises, a certain frequency, etc). Once you find it, you'll make better progress.
    “Go back?" he thought. "No good at all! Go sideways? Impossible! Go forward? Only thing to do! On we go!" So up he got, and trotted along with his little sword held in front of him and one hand feeling the wall, and his heart all of a patter and a pitter.”

    You are not a fragile ornament ready to collapse into an exhausted mass of goo simply because you squatted more than once in a 7-day week.

    It'd be like preparing your entire life to bang 100 chicks in a row, getting tan, hitting the gym, making sure your hair looks right and reading the Kama Sutra, only to realize when you get there that you're gay and cannot get hard in the presence of women.

    is it weird that my lats are my biggest DL weakness right now? (I may have asked this exact question before can't remember lol)

    I'm doing 5/3/1 right now. My DL day I follow up with DB rows, pendlay rows and pull ups. Should I add in some lat work on my squat day you think? If so any recommendations?

    Heavy, explosive BB rows. That always seemed to have great carryover for my DL - sumo and was a back DLer, though

    Kidney Virus?

    I'm about 1 back ache away from stopping dead lifts and squats completely. Need to see an orthopedic MD.

    I've hit the point where foam rolling is a necessity on the daily. But after I foam roll I feel like a million bucks.

    Ironic part is the back aches started after I began using a belt on pretty much all lower body exercises.
    heh

    I think my situation is a bit different.

    Here's part of a lung X-ray analysis I got back maybe a month ago (it was a TB test):

    "The bones reveal degenerative changes of the thoracic spine. There is age indeterminate anterior wedging of what appears to represent T11, possibly developmental variation."

    However during the time of the X-ray I was having a sharp, intense pain around the T11 area so it's likely I had (have?) a fractured vertebrae. That with the "degenerative changes" comment makes me think I should stop my aggressive powerlifting style workouts (brb throwing around 400+ lbs, gonna snap my sh** up) week to week until I go see someone. I'm just so busy with school and work I have no time or money. I'll call the doctor soon and request they send the X-ray to an orthopedic MD and/or try to get an appointment.

    Speaking of foam rolling, PVC pipe > all. We have pretty much every roller at the gym now and I've stuck with some over the PVC for a while and they suck. I used the black rumble roller (the stiffest) and it sucks in comparison to the pipe.

    Belt = more weight lifted and arguably no extra protection. Doesn't really surprise me

    I'm glad you missed the point. Added weight without added safety = greater risk of injury, especially dependent on form. Also, Andrew was referring to another topic.

    So. 0 of 2. Good job. Btw, when I pulled, I used a belt.

    You're correct. I am definitely sick, because I wasn't bent over in laughter at your hilarious and extremely witty remark.

    Yes. Except weigh lifted has gone done

    I'm blaming it on the huge volume increase as well as adding in a lot more of things that tax the lower back. I am going to probably mix and match things to make it less worked.

    HOW in the world do you need that much work on a rumble roller etc....? I didn't have issues until I was ~190, and was squatting near 500, and deadlifting over that....and now that I've lost a ton of weight and don't work out i have zero issues.

    It's where you literally roll around on the floor on top of a cylindrical piece of foam or other material to "roll out" muscle knots/tender spots.

    You don't have to have problems to foam roll, which is why it is referred to as "prehab." I've noticed when I don't keep up with my stretches and foam rolling, I get pretty tight (maybe because I spend so much time sitting?). I'd rather not wait until I have a problem to solve it, I'd rather prevent it. People get injured all the time and have to take time off lifting. I spend 10 minutes 4-5 times a week foam rolling, so I'm not sure how that's "that much work"?. That's really not that much and it's a worth while preventive measure if it reduces my chances of injury. The more I can consistently lift without getting hurt and having to take time off, the better chances I have of making gains. That's my thought process. I'm more than happy to invest 10-20 minutes a day to minimize my chances of an injury.

    And obviously some people may never need it or may need it later, like you.

    Edit: also forgot it's very much like a massage for me (and other people). I feel fantastic afterward and just move better. I was in piss poor shape before I even lifted.
    “Go back?" he thought. "No good at all! Go sideways? Impossible! Go forward? Only thing to do! On we go!" So up he got, and trotted along with his little sword held in front of him and one hand feeling the wall, and his heart all of a patter and a pitter.”
