Misc: When a person folds in a squat, it's not because they're PC dominant but their PC is unable to transfer load through their lateral chain into the anterior chain to help, thus is forced to bear the brunt of it - i.e. if the core is the foundation, then the obliques and QL are the support beams and when they're weak, everything folds

Misc: Root cause problems - chest breathers have shoulder probs due to tight SCM, scalenes and traps etc throwing their shoulders out of position; diaphragmatic breathers have spinal probs due to the right diaphragm becoming tight from overwork (since smaller left lung with only two lobes) which pulls the spine right due to the right leaflet and crus being bigger and having more attachments to the Lx, Tx then pulls left to compensate and voila, S curve

No fcuking kidding! I've missed your updates. Mind you .... I haven't pulled 180 for a year and a half and you're cleaning and front squatting it

Misc: When someone catches or squats wonky, look for mismatches in their hips, ankles and shoulders. Hips - one hip can be in APT and the other PPT, or one hip can be sitting higher than the other in LPT. Ankles - a fallen arch, poor dorsi, tendency to overpro/supinate etc on the one side can affect your ability to evenly bear load. Shoulders - poor ER leads to overarching on the one side, poor IR leads to uneven contact so the bar goes up wonky from the get go, etc

so impressive to think that you were doing all the overhead lunges and doing 100kg C+OHS after that last dislocation. I've got a lot to learn from your approach to your rehab

Lmao, i actually think they're built for a playoff run this year no jinx, biggest prob has always been hot and cold scoring but this year they've actually got defence and a slashing Derozan getting to the line to keep them in games when things get cold.

Lul, why not homeslice?

Try figuring out your foot type for starters, either make a footprint with paint and compare here, or specialist running store

Beyond that, try:

Breathing: 90/90 for a few good deep breaths where you really focus on letting go of the day's stress with each breath - holding stress = tight muscles and jutty movement

Mobility: Rolling the bottom of your foot for a few passes, then putting your fingers inbetween your toes to lightly space and wiggle them, then practice grabbing things off the floor with your foot to build dexterity and strengthen (you should be able to freely move on pebbles without feeling sharp jabby pains)

Low back: Set of deadbugs and birddogs to reset and stabilise back

Core: Set of planks and side planks to stabilise spine from front and side. Focus on breathing deep and exhaling if you want an extra challenge

Hips: Set of stepping over things from front and side - it's what your hip rotators were made for but noone ever does anymore (like we walk around hedges instead of godzilla stomping over them like the kings we are)

Balance: People usually fall into two types, super comfortable on heels or super comfortable on forefoot - the heels are usually those with horrid balance so they overly sit back onto them (or are cued to drive from them) when the heels weren't really made for absorbing and launching weight - e.g. you can't exactly jump or land purely from the heels without things hurting, so you shouldn't lift that way either. If you, get comfortable on your forefoot with either Oly shoes or standing calf raises for a set or two. The other type are people who usually spend their days in a heeled work shoe, so they get used to moving that way so when they go back down to barefoot, body's like wtf and everything feels off - if you, practice standing on one foot touching your nose whilest reciting the alphabet from g onwards to train flatfoot stabilisers and awareness

After that, a few jump squats where you focus on landing light and absorbing weight should do the trick

Haha keunt .... unfortunately I'm still in Barney mode

Yet you got up everyday to go skiing on your tax payer funded trip, not letting negative body image affect you = you sir, are a hero

You should try yourself, scale to just the bar and look to last the 20 - challenge is more turtle than hare anyways and not overly technical

Add +1 per week, for 146 weeks - 16.1 was actually made for me, been adding +1 to my press and lunge ever since my last op - press for strength, lunge to give my shoulders TUT under that position, 134 weeks, 402 training days...

Well .... I know I should still be good for a 180 deadlift but I'm still having dem mindfcuks ... wouldn't pull 140 today (granted: at the end of a big metcon session and I was dying of the heat in the current Adelaide humidity but still stupid, stupid and kicking myself)

I will try this out next time.

It just seems to me that lately when I lift barefoot (deads and squats) I don't have the right stability and it's gotten worse.
My left leg/ankle collapses inwards cuz I have like no foot arches. (size 14 shoe)


Sorry to hear about the doge.
How's the recovery going?

wish I had the knowledge when I started that I have now.

I can relate to that.
I was so stupid when I started out...

https://youtu.be/3jdGt9cftyU

Lu's more a panda puller, dips down and snaps arms tight as bar goes up, whereas someone like Daniyar is more triple extensy, jumps up with the bar (see feet on both) with the point being, you can Oly too if you figure out what works

My feelings exactly. I'm cautiously optimistic this season. They have shows some really good signs so I think they can make something happen as long they don't go full retard.

Third time's a charm, esp with Carroll coming back

This is good stuff!

My left leg/ankle collapses inwards cuz I have like no foot arches. (size 14 shoe)

How bout on lunges and step-ups? Try restore your arches ASAP, no arches = inability to bear load

edit: didn't have time to answer this prop the other day but your lower body actually gets power and balance from your big toe and you collapsing inwards during the movement is prob your body looking for that. Fix can be as simple as changing foot position/width to get more big toe, or it might require drills like the ones i gave you - e.g. spreading toes is an actual ortho test that helps prevents ACLs from unstable feet/sticky big toe, grabbing stuff helps to rebuild arches etc

Sorry to hear about the doge.
How's the recovery going?

She's gone, we ate her

Although that will negatively impact your bw to lift ratio. Which Im super jelly of.

I can't say I've ever thought about my big toe outside of banging it against a table.
I gotta try some of the stuff you mentioned. Plan to DL tomorrow so I will attempt.

Ideally you wanna keep what's known as a tripod foot, three points of contact on the ground with big toe, little toe and heel, and then within that you play around with the loading - e.g. i like 70:30 forefoot to heel when flatfooted and deadlifting, everything else i'm like 90:10, especially in sport (MMA, basketball) with the adage being to never be caught on your heels etc, the Chinese will specifically teach heels off the platform pulling to clean up form and teach stability and balance etc

PP sounds too much like push press, esp at 5 in the morn when i'm all groggy and decaffeinated

Dark chocolate is groce, she would've left it alone

I think technically they're a 'snatch high pull' but H could be 'Hang' as well. Panda Pull isn't too hard to write though

Nice combo actually, teaches you how to differentiate between using your quads and hams on deads. Sorta, back up to 70kgs but the ABs have killed my appetite

Yeah ... I visualise the lifts when I'm reading them. Same with ScottDonald's log ... he always includes some oly pull complexes in his training
Must still be looking pretty shredded at 70kg. Makes the lifts look awesome as a BW multiple

Pretty sure it's terrorism to send your MRSA soaked tie to people

I wore it as a G-string ... thought you'd appreciate it

How's lungcepts Barneysaurus? Any easter plans?

I attribute my DVT and PE to a bad decision with a single malt in the Qantas lounge in LAX. Got a bit untidy with that, red wine, champagne and beer and may have been a little dehydrated getting on the flight
Lungcepts are feeling better .. still have a pain but not too bad .. still tired and a bit breathless in the gym. Feeling a bit flushed which I think is my body sending loads of neutrophils to chew up the clot
Easter was going to be visiting a friend's sheep station .... in the family 152 years, 94,000 hectares and 60km of River Murray frontage. Was to be a weekend of waterskiing, boating, BBQs and drinking ... unfortunately was also a 4 hour drive so not the smartest move for me. Instead I'm staying home watching 'Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood' with daughter number one an getting some training in at home

Catalyst calls them Snatch Pull Downs, panda pulling = pulling yourself down, high pulls = pulling bar up, which makes even less sense to me at 5 in the morn as SPD lul (i'm too OCD to write "Panda Pulling" when everything else is in acronyms hehe)

Oh ok, i usually use them to prefatigue to get a training effect with less - e.g. 155 is still 120 off my best dead (275 or 56%); or for contrast - e.g. high pulls are bad form for me, absolutely kill my shoulders but i'll still do them as part of HP+S+OHS to feel bad form, then i'll panda pull into my snatch cos i'm asian and learn best via pain and negative reinforcement

Tom Ford suits made to measure are $6000+ and mine were fitted to 76kgs - **** shredded, bw ratios etc when i've got 4 suits gnawing away at me

Lul, do you ever come out of your ski trips unscathed? Jap whisky is really, and i mean REALLY, nice

Yeah, nice, safe, padded couch and one of the best animes ever is such a let down when you've got broken lungs, like no 50 year old male should ever be forced to take paid time off, from 6 months worth, to watch cartoons and play in their gym after a fun ski trip with the boys - the horror!

Misc: Went to the Easter show with bae and won her two giant stuffed toys cos #stud. Bae's one of those retard asians with naive ideals when it comes to love, like sharing scarves - she's 5'1 on a good day, i'm 5'10, do you know how stupid it is to share a scarf like conjoined twins - being the campus couple, couple shirts, sharing umbrellas etc, and me winning her toys at a carnival was another thing off her checklist. Next on the list, buying curtains!
