You could always just take mine in paint, erase the edges, and you'd have the same thing :D | ||

 Haha I was like "didn't I make that one?" but wasn't really sure because the one I got says something else  Would be cool to have something like that on a shirt but I'm sure funkie can make something better than that! ^^Edit: and yeah, I'm at uni now and I've been working out at their gym, so many curl bro's! Only me and the women there are squating, I'm not complaining about that though But it can be distracting some times... | ||

@eshlow Did some glute bridges at the gym - didn't hurt while I was doing them, but it did immediately after. Stop doing them? Also tried side planks on the recommendation of infinity, and I could barely hold them for 15 seconds. That's a problem, as I could easily hold them (without any shaking or bending) for two minutes in high school. Going to start doing these regularly I guess. Counted Calories yesterday. Only got in 2400, and I think that was more food than I have been getting most days. No wonder I feel like I'm leaner every morning, and I wasn't making any progress on my OHP/Squat/Deadlift even before the hip problem. I need to start eating more often through the day - body builder style, even. Yes, I know it doesn't make a difference, so long as I hit my macros... but I'm too lazy to cook and eat two huge meals at the end of the day, and my stomach can't really handle two 1800 calorie meals in four hours. Going to start preparing much bigger portions and refrigerating them to eat for meals during the day. If I eat four 900 calorie meals or five 750 calorie meals it should be a lot easier to go back to putting on weight. Bro Routine Day 1: Close grip bench, Incline DB Bench, Chest Flies Upper Back stuff (face pulls, rear delt flies) Tricep stuff (pushdowns, overhead extensions) Glute bridges + Side Planks THink I would have rather done Incline Barbell Bench, Dips, and Flies just so that I had to work harder. Wzs nice to do the rear delt stuff that I usually miss because of time. Tricep exercises are lol - either have to wait ten minutes, or work in with three other guys because everyone is doing them. | ||

I would pretty much do what I told someone else -- any non-painful mobility is good. You want to calm down the nervous system so it will not send the muscles into spasm when it senses a threat. I would avoid stretching it as that tends to be bad and cause some negative feedback. Same with foam rolling for the low back. I would keep foam rolling for the T-spine though to open it up more and possibly your hips if your hips are tight. Focus on learning to breath properly while doing planks... this will help engage your "core" (I hate saying core) a bit better. For your glutes I would suggest doing bulgarian split squats if you can tolerate those as they tend to be more back friendly and might show you if there's any imbalances in your pelvis. Same with front squat if you need to squat -- more vertical back is safer if your back is injured. But I would NOT do any of these right now; just focus on calming everything down right now and more isolation type strength with the planks | ||

In general, I would not foam roll areas that got directly ACUTELY injured. That's what is going on where, and the low back is tight for that reason. Hence, why I suggest non-painful mobility to help calm down the nervous system rather than trying to beat up the tissues with the foam roller which can potentially make things worse. If they are chronically injured from overuse (such as IT band tightness creeping up on you) I would say it's generally fine and you can try it. If the tightness doesn't go away, then it's obviously not the IT band that's causing hte problem and you need to look somewhere else for the issues. These are just small things to think about but kinda make sense from an injury perspective. | ||

Since TLHF is awesome and showed me the sansa clip+ I was hoping you guys would know of a similar music player that isn't an ipod and doesn't break as easily. For the record I have literally no idea how I broke my clip this time, the power button is just stuck down and does nothing. The other one I crushed the screen, probably loading a mower at work. | ||

While I'm at it, can I ask you another question which is really noobish: when foam rolling the legs esp the quads, should you tense the muscles or relax, or somewhere in between? Relax the whole time If you have a really tight muscle you can contract it really hard for about 10s, and then relax it (which tends to relieve some of the tightness) and roll it and it should help out with the relaxation. | ||

Russian weightlifter Igor Golushkin (Игорь Голушкин) died after 185 kg barbell he was trying to bench press at a powerlifting competition in the city of Shahty (Шахты) slipped his grasp and crushed his chest. The crushing weight of the barbell severely hemorrhaged his heart, destroyed his diaphragm, broke his ribs and ripped torn his abdominal cavity. 34 year old athlete from Rostov-on-Don, Igor Golushkin competed in the weight category of up to 90 kg. While not new to weightlifting, this was his first time in a competition. According to expert analysis, Igor Golushkin used an illegal hold that athletes call “open enough” when he was crushed. It was also said that he shouldn’t have been trying his luck with weights beyond what he was capable of handling during training (his maximum bench press during training was 160 kg). Less.. Sorry if this has been here already | ||

Strength loss wasn't as severe as I expected, haven't maxed but I think I can still squat around 130kg (all time best was 153kg, before cut I could hit 140-145kg consistently). My clean and snatch actually feel much stronger since I've been using this time to work on technique. Here are some before and after pics. Before (front): + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/lCE2u.png) Now there's actually a gap between my legs haha. After (front): + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/DFrFx.png) Current flex pic for lolz: + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/c7yJ7.jpg) | ||

That spotter is basically responsible for this guy's death, along of course with the guy himself, the grip and the insane weight. He perfectly spots the previous guy, then just stands there like a fucking gym douche shouting 'it's all you baby all you!' | ||
