deadlift involves traps, lats, lower back, glutes, hamstrings and some quads depending on form
you have to really push with glutes and hamstrings to use those 3 muscle groups in unison, if you're just lifting with lower back you have bad technique
and if you want to push through your plateau for overhead press then try push presses same thing but you're adding more momentum, when you get that weight higher you'll see how much easier overhead press is Posted via RS Mobile
push presses look like they involve knee bending and leg help
i'm following the guide on the stronglifts website where it says to lock your knees and hips and clench your ass (which really makes a difference) so that it strickly uses your upper body
i'm definetly not dropping down and using my legs to help drive the bar up
should this be the form i want to follow for deadlifts? looks pretty good, but her back is way more veritical than mine is, which is i'm sure why my form is poor
(i know she's using that special bar)
mark riptoe says to drag the bar along your shins and thigs up and down to keep the bar close
i think my problem as well is that my legs are long so i really need to drop low to get my shoulders above the bar and not have a more horizontal back position

Weight on the scale today was 200lbs again so I guess that's real lol. I thought the scale was wrong the other day. Abs have def. lost some definition but overall I'm looking fucking solid.
did deadlifts today facing away from mirror. feels awesome. wish i could squat w/o mirror but too dangerous cuz hard to rack it backwards.
tried to run bar up my shin during deadlifts. reduced bar's path alot but it hurts
thanks...you had me second guessing my weight but it was the 45lbs bar plus 2 10's and a 2.5 on each side = 90lbs
my squats are terrible because i have chicken legs to the max...i've never really worked them out at all, i've been on and off working my upper body for a few years but really never my legs. the best i got on my legs was like 5 plates each side on the leg press for 4 sets of 10 kind of thing
Your leg press weight is solid as hell. I can rep 275lb squats, but can only do 10-12 reps on the leg press with 5 plates. Maybe I'm not pushing hard enough.
what was the way to prevent / get rid of stretch marks again? rubbing coco butter on it? i first was like fuck yea this is great but theyre getting worse each day dont want my arms to be covered in red stuff Posted via RS Mobile
