Anyone with a lever belt notice it has this much bite where the leather overlaps?

To be honest, that's pretty mild. The bites can get pretty bad if you do your belt tight. I leave my belt loose now--my form is just better that way, but when I used to tighten it a lot of squats I'd get bad bruises and blood blisters on my hips and ribs.

If you aren't getting ART already I would highly recommend it.

This x a lot.

Sucks getting it, but man it helps a ton. I had an elbow problem that I thought was a tendon issue....it was originating from something in my lat/arm pit area....sucks getting that treated, but no more hurty squat elbow.

Now I go cuz it is cheap and the ART lady is pretty hot. Preventative maintenance is good too.

I brought the notch out a hole to loosen it, sucks right around my current weight I'd like to have a setting for squat one tighter and deadlift with the looser one but screwing the back piece out and adjusting it in a workout is extremely inconvenient. I used to come home with bruises on my hips and my gf thought I was cheating on her, same goes for doing front squats...

Screw that guy, he stole my physique. Why cant people just be original?

Who's mirin my beard? On a scale of HNNNG to MotherofGod.jpg how perfect is it??

Let me know next time you are gonna go out in your beat up white van with candy to go find a "friend," so I can let my cousin know to take her son out of school for the day.

See, that's another problem, chronic inflammation is is a signal that something is wrong but your body isn't able to fix it. In the case of tendinitis your tendons are constantly inflamed and the DMSO acts as an antiinflam which allows you to function normally until it wears off. If you aren't getting ART already I would highly recommend it.

Will inquire with insurance...I assume they cover this? Is recovery sort of immediate after treatments, because I had graston done on my forearms and it barely seemed to help.

Bout to start day drinking, been a while but it's nice outside and I'm feelin frisky.

[grace_ou]

Hows the back?

It's healing. I'm making pretty good progress. Monday I start light weights& limited range of motion @ 4 weeks out, so that's not bad.

I've never meet anyone graston worked for or that liked it.

Posted my 600 squat in the fitness sub-forum on a gun forum. Some random guy said I was gonna snap my back. Bunch of regulars called him a retard and asked to see his squats in response. Good times.

It was gbg who was suggesting it constantly I'm not sure the woman who did it knew what she was doing (she was using a LOT of icing along with it). What about ART?

[Jason2459]

Got the westside power bar in and not the econ. Knurling is sharp, sharper then the jesup power bar which was pretty agressive but the tips are obviously filed. I'd say kind of like a texas power bar which I don't think they file the knurling down at all or like the Ivanko. Which is perfect so I can get used to that kind of bite in case I get the Ivanko bar at the meet. The 29mm fits in my hands so much better then 32mm of the jesup so we'll see how hook grip training goes. There seems to be a bit of a wobble like around 2mm but that could be the sleeves. I'll have to rack it at home and check it but wouldn't effect the performance at all. There's also one nick at the bar's end which is kind of annoying but that's about it. Can't wait to try it out.

I was working on a final project for one of my classes today and met Craig Robinson while I was buying a chocolate filled churro. He was super chill and friendly.

[ChAoSandPAIN]

This is the 2nd time I've heard of Jamie Lewis miss weight. He couldn't make 165 at 2012 USAPL Raw Nationals. I really hope if he chooses to do 165 that he makes the weight and we see what he can do. Or make the decision to go 181 and start putting on some more mass and see where the strength goes.

You're thinking of someone else. I would never lift ing the USAPL- I actually enjoy lifting.

lmao

Speaking of that - At my next meet the 198+ male lifters don't weigh in until 12PM. I've got a girl lifting at 9AM so I guess I won't be drinking/eating very much while coaching. Should be a fun 5 hours. Fukking stuipd. inb4 I weigh in at 210

Cool story bro...how was the churro?

So update: apparently two of my workers are so angry and distraught that i was promoted to their boss they have interviews on Monday at different departments. They've been giving me the silent passive aggressive treatment all week while I've been having the lulz...Monday gon be good if they think they're getting away with luxuries we used to let slide...

Graston broke up a lot of adhesions and scar tissue in the arm I broke, particularly around the palm and wrist area.

Duhh, did you see his shirt?

You read that post of mine but not the subsequent ones explaining how I mixed up Jamie Lewis and Jamie McDougal? And then decided to quote it days later?

I still have some in the fridge.

You liked then?? Cause seriously you would be the first person I ever heard say anything good about it. How long did it take? How many session did you have? Any side effects? First time I tried it I broke in this rash .. like a sunburn. Very uncomfortable.

Art I like and I know alot of people use it with good results.
