Thought you were doing hookgrip there for a second, but wow double overhand is even more impressive

Deadlift challenge with hookgrip anyone? automatic 5 rep boost? :troll:

anyone want to not be able to raise there hands for 2 weeks

mountain dog is homicide, but very legit

can some rs gods school me on proper squat form... i've been told you go low as 90 degrees and some say go as low as you can. is it based on preference?

pulled my left glute/upper hamstring today and it fuckin sucks. also noticed my knees were going too inwards. must go back to the drawing board :(

rs gods... may you bless thy glutes for thy sloots

Let it rest for a bit, then stretch and foam roll the shit out of it.

Not a god but I'll chime in because I can relate to you.

The reason knees cave inward is because the hips are weak.

To remedy to the knee problem of going inwards I suggest getting a resistance band and wrap them around both your quads just a bit above the knee. Now practice with bodyweight squats and focus on driving the knees out.
I usually start off with these on leg day and have really noticed a difference when I squat.

+1 to what stealthy said

i like to go as low as my body allows me to which is just below/at parallel with a low bar squat
i find that with a high bar i can go much lower
and remember, squatting is mainly a pushing out motion, not an up and down so really focus on pushing those knees out

Chiropractor said to lay off the squats for 3 months so my back can heal and use a leg press machine... after all of these years I have yet to use a machine at golds. Hahaha

Where are the videos people!

just finished sheiko 29 and am now doing a deload week.

will try and get a dl vid up middle of the week.

sStand shoulder width apart and push out with your knees,so ur knees wont bend inward and that you wont look like u need to go take a piss. Also grip the bar firmly on ur back and try to bend the bar as you go up, it helps

just did 225x21 or 22
will reattempt for 25+

sick ^^^^

Nice that looked easy. You had so much more in you "fuck it"

I hit 18 last week, but felt like I could get at least 20. will upload next week

A tip when attempting these "rep challenges" is to do a set of 1 with 90-95% of your max prior to doing so. Assuming that those who are doing the challenge have no trouble handling the load assigned to their weight class.

Personally helps me a lot

Guy heads to the squat rack and starts doing curls. While he's curling, he's swinging his whole body and grunting very loud. He does his annoying 3 sets and then leaves without putting the weights back . WTF :facepalm:

sounds like SC....:rukidding:

lol
today i told some kid to put his shit away cause it is not fair to the people in the gym and he looked at me like i was joking and then i just stood there until he put his shit back, not he will not do that again
