I won't lie I'm slightly infatuated with Alan Thrall.... I watched these videos when I plateaued on my DL at about 225. The videos didn't make me perfect BUT it helped correct a lot and my numbers started to grow. Alan does such a great job of explaining lifts, and is great about noting errors in old videos or making adjustments based on what he has learned over time.
Agreed! I've seen a number of his vids! He's pretty fabulous!
Totally agree with this.
I like to watch his vids, has helped me with my lifts in the past when i was struggling with my deadlift at 140
With some of his pointers my max is now 155 (kg that is)
Have not lifted above 50 kg in over a year because i do not have acces to more plate weights right now (i borrow gym equipment from gym)
So kinda worried how much strenght i have lost in almost a year time3 -

I also was able to do my entire sandbag/keg suicide combo with meet day weights 🤗. I feel so much better about my training. Sometimes a bad lift day can really make you question everything lol, thank you guys for your support 🖤

I come here for you two 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Oh boy the pressure 😅 especially since I fail more than I don’t anymore 😬 where’s your contributions btw???
Oh no no, lol. Not me. I can feel the embarrassment just thinking about it. 😆
Come on! No embarrassment here, just progress. 🤗
*whispers* If I can, you can Batman 🤭
You ALMOST had me with the Batman reference.

I like the concept of embarrassed out. The looks I got in PT when I was shoulder rehabbing (5 anchors to fix a labrum tear) were something but i couldn't care less. See what kind of looks you get if you hand-walk a treadmill (like this but they need to be further away from the treadmill with their feet, lowering their derrieres and up the speed a bit)

I once did something similar where I put my feet on the seat part of a rower and my hands on the floor in plank position, then pulled my legs into my waist on repeat. It was a dare and so I completely understand the comparison 😂1 -

It makes me think of all the vids that are out there mocking people for using the equipment "wrong". Sometimes someone may be using it for something other than the "intended purpose", but it doesn't mean that there is no benefit. If it's working certain muscles, is it really wrong?
As long as it doesn't put you at risk for serious injury... I say go for it!
I would be worried about treadmill face, myself. haha4 -
Happy Friday!!! Worked out at 5 today, was legit out of my house at 4:30 waiting for my gym to open.... wtf is wrong with me 😳. Today was 🍑 day.... having lots of those Bc I’m trying to not use my shoulder, it’s killing me lately and I’m praying I’m not injured. Anyway got over 200 lbs on my thrusts so there’s that 😁

I mean, not just. I'm not quite so exclusionary on the things I wanna see. There's a whole list. I cross things off as I find them, it's like Creeper Scavenger Hunt. :ohwell:
All I have is the old red ball pic, I keep saying this. To post my legs I'd have to use them, and I haven't used them.

Kudos for the answering the 5am call. Hope the shoulder cooperates soon and it's just being a little cranky rather than injured.1 -
