I think so. I purposedly placed the bar even lower than I usually do cause my squat is "quad" dominant and I tend to go foward with really heavy weights (goodmorning like), so my technique is a lot smoother and better with the barbell there.

For shoulder flexibilty everyone should be doing "shoulder dislocates" at least 4 times a week.

Also my night was quite epic, as moderation in alcohol and weight lifting sucks.

memegenerator not working so, imagine drunk bachelor frog between the lines.

"Squat 170kg

Get drunk, puke twice in the morning and have fever"

Oh boy.

I really don't think that would do much whatsoever. Your tendons will get stronger if you keep using the same hand.

I've been reading a lot on it, and it doesn't seem like a very common injury if you're doing proper deadlift technique. Some sources were saying that you get severe pain if there is that much pain on the tendon so if you feel a large pain in your bicep don't fight it. People on the youtube vid were saying that it is likely the result of steroid use, but I wont get into that.

There's no real way you're going to strengthen that part of your arm for the deadlift using other exercises. Doing 60-70lb bicep curls aren't holding nearly as much weight as a heavy deadlift. The other alternative is to always use a overhand grip, some power-lifters actually do, there are videos of 900lb+ overhand grip deadlifts, although others say it's very painful using the overhand grip for their highest weights.

I think I'll just stick to overhand grip for my two warm ups (50% and 75% of DL weight) and be careful on the last set.

Shit. Fuck.

Ok so thus far my diet has consisted mostly of beef, potatoes and veggies. On workout days i feel like I'm stuffing myself, doing my largest meal at lunch because I do the lg early morning workout. I don't know if I could eat more.

Now, I was using an app to keep track of my kalorie intake. In this app, I was told that 500g of mashed potatoes equalled about 300g of carbs. Recent intel suggests that this is bullshit, and that potatoes provide maybe a fifth of that (500g = 60-70 carbs). So, fucking fuck fuck, I guess I haven't been eating nearly enough carbs for about 2 months. There is no way I can eat five times as many carbs as my current diet. Maybe double if I want to hate myself.

So, advice, please: how do I eat 400g of carbs in a 8 hour window? Proteins are relatively easy, I wuv meat, but who do I trust on the nutritional value of potatoes?

Okay, so here are my stats for the big three:

Bench 140kg
Deadlift ~100kg
Squat ~90kg

I realize there is a ridiculous disparity here. My question is whether I should just stop working out my chest for a little while and get those other exercises up to par? Also, I think I hurt my chest a little last time(I was a little sick at the time, but felt fine. Just a lot of coughing and some slime in my throat) It's at the side of my chest, marked with yellow on the picture
It doesn't really hurt except when i stretch out my arm (and also when i then pull it back). Even then it doesn't hurt a lot. 3 or 4 on the pain scale I guess. Is there any alleviating exercises? And if I should postpone my chest workout regarding the injury?
