Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

[Son Goku]

I'm feeling like it's more like a tweak then a pull. I know I won't be deadlifting for at least another 2 weeks.

What's the antidote breh you've been through this?

I aint trying to bend down like a ballerina to pick up things

I pull more often so I rarely have these issues. Frequency >>> *.

Unless you trying to mimic the amount of movement Juan Roman Riquelme did in a match I see no way how you think you're gonna be able to play footy with all the dynamism needed to perform....

Actually played today and played well. The pain has been subsiding and I slept on the hard floor last night (actually does wonders for the spine). More movement actually helps with the pain and getting the inflammation down.

Not quite 100% to resume squatting and more heavy lifts. I think I’ll do lunges and more accessory work for the lower body this week. Will toss in some work specifically for the lower back and core as well. Should be back to normal by the end of this week.

I wish I was Thailand though…I’d have gotten a proper massage for like $10-$15

No HE though

Slept like a baby for over 13 hours.

I could see my trash ass form in the mirror I tried to tuck my chin under like a youtuber subscribed.. got finished with the rep went to remove some weights then felt a tweak in my lower back.

I'll up my frequency and perfect my form next time

Do not do that.


Increased frequency is only beneficial when you already know what the fukk you're doing. If you have to 'perfect your form next time', you aren't ready for increased frequency.

Only reason Bulgarian Method/Squat Erryday works for folks is because they have form down pat and they can autoregulate. Noobs and early intermediates cannot, that's why they get injured tryna do that shyt.

If you a puppy stay your ass on the porch and let the big dogs eat in the streets.

And who the fukk told you to tuck your chin under when doing deadlifts?

Your whole neck and spine should be stacked and neutral; in your stance before initiating the pull they should be straight with no observable rounding. Tucking your chin past a certain point would actually pull your neck down disrupting that neutral position. What a terrible physical cue to be giving folks outchea.



This is why people need to find a gym buddy that knows what the fukk they're doing and learn off them, not no damn YT videos which aren't interactive.

Deadlifting over 3plates ain’t worth it anymore

Yeah, you gotta hold this L.


YT videos don't allow you to account for individual differences the way an in-person coach can. So many cues have to get bushed based on the person I'm working with and their individual ranges of mobility/dimensions/proportions.

Yeah, you not really a #PowdaBoyz member at this point, you like the mascot.


Always injured, never listening to the coaches, disrupting other members of the team...

That's not a heads up, that's just a little nikka mad he can't run with the big dogs cause he stays doing bullshyt and keeps getting injured. Straight-up puppy babble.
