Deadlifting with hookgrip is tougher than snatch/cleaning, but some elite powerlifters worked into it lately. | ||

Thumbs are dead and I tore a callus. HOW DO YOU GUYS DO THIS?? I mean... you are really not supposed to just load 230kg on the barbell and hookgrip that shit. Ease into it. And if it wouldn't hurt, you would be doing it wrong. Everything went as expected :-) | ||

Nah it's just a small local meet for people that need to put up a qualifying total for nationals. Aiming to total 295-300 tonight and then taper down for the week.

Doing deadlift/hangclean complexes with 140kg will turn your thumbs into super thumbs real quick xD | ||

My buddy got some chewables and offered me some but it's fucking 4 chewables for 5 grams (recommended to take them all after working out etc etc), and it seems like such a stupidly large quantity of chewables to get your 5 g/day. | ||

there are literally thousands of studies on its effectiveness: it will help you if you are building strength or high intensity, it is less helpful if you are an endurance athlete; it also is a myostatin inhibitor and almost certainly increases hypertrophy there are basically no downsides except maybe some upset stomach if you don't drink enough water with it | ||

I have like stress-induced alopecia or whatever the hell I think anyone have any experience with/know anything about creatine and hair loss? Stress induced hairloss should not be co-related to hereditary hairloss which is caused by sensitivity to DHT so it should not matter? DHT is only a problem for male pattern baldness | ||
