As the comments say, at this rate he is gonna break the supers records in the 105 weight class (he recently moved up) 238kg is the record for 105, so this is WR+3kg. The guy who did it can't snatch though. | ||

Focus on linear progression, and regularly adding weight to compound lifts. Something simple like A: 3 sets of 5 squats 3 sets of 5 Bent over Barbell Rows 3 sets of 5 Bench Press B: 5 sets of 3 Front Squats 1 set of 5 deadlifts 3 sets of 5 overhead presses Just alternate, A then B, and you can't go wrong with doing as many chinups as possible if you've got energy left over at the end of the workout. Shouldn't need cardio, but you can do it if you like cardio or want to be in good cardiovascular shape. diet wise start counting calories. Count everything you eat for the next week, then the following week drop 500 calories from that. Stay at that -500 number for two weeks and see if you lose weight. If you do, keep at it. If you don't drop a further 500. When your weight loss stalls out, drop a further 250. Repeat until desired body achieved. @Celltech I'll take a progress pic when I get home tonight and upload it then. Also agree with funkie, wtf, since when did you live in manhattan? I should be going through there 2-3 times this summer. Lets get a lift in. Progress post. No pictures. I am down to 72 Kilograms right now, and I think I have a valid shot at getting to 65 Kilograms, but my main goal from then on out is doing nothing but accumulating muscle. Like, featherweight and then working my way up. Goal for now: get the flab off of my abs. I am presently at 72 Kilograms, and it seems that I am having difficulty getting it all off. also my thigh-bones have some love-handles, but other than this I am beginning to notice my stomach taking shape. So, what should I eat, what should I do at the gym? recommended exercises etc? Right now my goal is cutting 90% of my body fat to where I have almost nothing but muscle. | ||

I feel like the SS method was you'd fix things as you worked the main lifts and they got heavier but I'm not convinced of that personally. I'd say test for flexibility first to see if they can even do a full rom squat, and most of the imbalances will probably work themselves out when doing a program. | ||

I only managed to fuck mine up doing a a shitty max deadlift attempt completely raw. Usually stuff hinging at the hips combined with imbalance/lack of activation is the culprit. | ||

I was doing a relatively good form deadlift that someone else might have done the same and not have had an SI issue. The SI Joint is where your hips and back connect and some combination of weakness/lack of stability/poor form can pull it out of place. | ||

Personally, my imbalances didn't work out and I attribute SI joint stuff to that at least partially. I don't want someone to deal with that. You'll be able to pick out the imbalances better if you're watching him work than you will in yourself, because you can't have as full a view of your own body. Just be attentive and you should catch anything before it becomes a major problem. | ||
