EPTOrthopedist said flat out bar none don't do them until you get your C-spine dealt with.
At which point he'll reconsider.

Training Goals: VO2 max over 1.0 ml/kg/s to be able to play badminton again. Nutrition Goals: Gonna try some different diets, see what I like best in the long run. Have always eaten healthy anyways. I'm in the worst shape I've ever been after a 2 year knee injury, so it'll be interesting to see how long it actually takes to get to 1.0 ml/kg/s! Sup fellow baddie  Got myself a nice knee injury which took me a year to recover from. Getting to 1,0ml/kg/s VO2 would be quite nice but being lower than that (like I'm right now lol) only really affects my singles play so if I were in your position I'd focus more on technical work and then after that explosive strength and lastly cardio. I might test my VO2 levels again if I could be assed to do the cooper test again >.< @inimenesc: You could do that if I feel like you need it. Just make sure when you move up in weight you drop the volume back to 5x5. | ||

I've been drinking non stop for about forever now, I went 2 days without drinking last week and I missed Monday this week because I was too hung over to drink, I'm pretty sure I have a problem, but that aside, I'm getting fat because of it, which is the serious issue at hand. I need a bit of a shock to the system and a desperate change of routine and lifestyle, Is there any 5 day a week routines that will allow me to go back to back training sessions? I keep failing on SS because I drink and eat twice as much on my off days and then end up missing my training day, I reckon I could change my habits if I just spend 1 full week training and eating healthy. The thing that is weird is that I can still squat and deadlift some pretty awesome numbers with this shit diet and pretty much 100% chance of having some trace of alcohol in my system. How the fuck did I get to this stage.. Uhh I think I might have you beat in the alcoholism department. Although moving back home from school has toned down my drinking. Use your workouts as your reason not to drink, I always feel like garbage about myself if I drink the night of a workout or the day before a workout. you can either fix it now or wait till your body crashes :-/ | ||

I just treat them as the same. I try to keep my rows as explosive as possible, so I guess I am more on the pendlay site of things. Also, Rippetoe is definitely not against Rows, he is just trying to say that Power Cleans are something totally different. But I believe anybody can see that they are a great assistance exercise. And the video above just made me speechless. I did rows all last summer...they have nothing on the back strength I got from power cleans/ oly lifts | ||

If hesitant to do cleans, just do them lighter and include them in a barbell complex, and get some conditioning in. @inimenesc Stop right there. Pick a good program and stop changing shit. This is how you pick your starting weight: Start with bar, do a rep. Easy right? Add a small amount of weight, did the bar speed slow down? If no, add more weight gradually until the bar speed BEGINS to slow. When the bar speed isn't as fast as the empty bar, this is your starting weight. If you change a program, its not the program anymore. Lifting form, especially squat/clean form, doesn't come easy. It doesn't take 3 months to learn, it takes years. Accept this, 1 year from now, you will know a lot more and be able to make your own decisions, until then, stick to 5x5 or SS or TM, whatever but just do what the program says until it stops working. | ||

Standing military press, I only did up to 50. Like the deadlift I felt I could go higher, but I'm starting slow. Better to start too light than too heavy. Standing military press form was fairly easy. Power cleans... ouch. My biggest problems on form here are really thrusting with my hips, and landing it on my shoulders like in the videos. I did about 50 lb on these as well, and I was hesitant to go higher because my form is still lacking, even though I could easily lift more. I had to reposition the bar to my shoulders after jumping since I just wasn't used to the motion. No doubt these will get better. Can't wait to go back to day three. Going to see how much my deadlift and bench press improve. | ||

Hence why I wrote assistance exercise. Just a good alternative for people who shouldn't do Cleans (Froadac) or idiots who pussied out when they started working out again (me -.-). But I'll fix that soon enough, I just would find it pretty wasteful to stop with Rows now that I have them on a reasonable level again. But Texas Method is just 1-2 weeks away (which I frankly have thought for the last 4 weeks, but I won't complain). | ||

No Really. Fuck them. What a shit show my max squat was. 225 was my max. Wtf, I couldn't even get 245 when my max before was 260. | After I couldn't hit 245 I called it a day. Looks like I'm going to be spending a hell of a lot of time in the Squat rack. But gosh damnit. So mad. /end rant Got a video of all but one, but probably won't upload any of them. Dunno EDIT: Right now, I feel amazing for actually going heavy on my squats again. Now that my toe is healed and I'm not worried about it, I'ma get back to squats a lot. +1 for feeling badass. | ||

EASIEST 10KG INCREASE ON ALL LIFTS EVER WHAT IS UP Lol, I was wondering how you could only Press 27,5kg. I mean, you are a pretty thin guy, but you also look very fit in person. Good job on your awesome strength gain over night^^ | ||
