I'm 14 5,9" 145lb, my left arm was crippled in an accident a few years ago, I thought maybe that caused problems.
im 5'4" and i dont think i can bench 70 lbs
im not short, just ... vertically challenged ...
Pretty fucking pumped.
Starting squatting today, managed to break paralell/hit paralell on all of my reps, but had ot lower the weight.
Oh
and
my bench max, was previously 135..
I did a 5x5, of 125, then racked on 135, and repped it twice, right after the 5x5
woop;)
Wasn't someone talk about a lower back problem whilst squatting a while back. On my previous workout I could squat 200 with relative ease, then I went for it today, and my lower back really hurt, so I took it down to 190. Anyone know what causes this in the lower back?
bad form?
the higher the weight, the harder it is to do proper form (for me, at least)

lets get back to dat lifting talk though[/QUOTE]
I did. Wasn't sure whether there was a relation between Russian and Estonian borders in terms of how multi-lingual you're.
I live in Israel and that doesn't make me polyglot. I know Russian, Hebrew and English. Those are self-taught, not environmentally imprinted in me.

For some reason when i squat, if i hit paralell i stick my ass out pretty far. But other than that my forms fine.
you think thats fine or no?
That means you're leaning forward. A lot. I guess you want to do squats and not good mornings? In these terms, I'd say what you're doing is bad.
I had this happen to me, lowered the weight, went back up progressively.

bad form, general fatigue, insufficient warm ups, weak lower back.

Im not entirely sure. My friend said i stick my ass out pretty far, and i couldnt really see for obvious reasons. But im squatting fine, no issues. Hmm.

I think the best way to describe it, is im not bending my back, but im pushing my hips/ass out
We need a running thread, like for cross country, or even track and field. I would make one but 1 I'm lazy and 2 I'm inexperienced which is why I want one to be made.

Also does anyone know about nordic/cross country skiing, looking into that too.
Only that if you're gonna try that, prepare to sweat a helluva lot even if it's -30 degrees C.

Went to the gym to do some HIIT on the elliptical, decided "fuck it, i will not have comfort" and went harder than i ever have. Rubbed 2 blisters into my hand from the bars. On the way out, guy that was in the weight room said "Son, you were destroyin that machine." Proud day.
You were doing machine weights? ewwwww
[QUOTE=Septimas;32631479]You were doing machine weights? ewwwww[/QUOTE]

It usually is only old people, but they work better than treadmills for HIIT.
ppl who go really really hard on ellipticals are funny to look at.

I love my fucking chest and legs but my sides (ext delts) fucking suck dick. I look big from the front but small from the sides.
Also went to a gym near my house like 30 minutes ago to see what i can do max with squat ( i usually go to the one by my school cuz i have weight training) and i maxed my squat to 165. Meh D:
I've only been working out for a month and i increased my bench from 95 to 115 so i'm pretty damn happy.
Also last year i was 105 and 5'7" :v: fucking hated myself. Joined wrestling, went up to 115. This year, i started 123 and now i'm 130.
I got a rotatory cuff injury. for the 90th time. fuck.
