    Low Rack Pulls 3x8
    I was just looking up the benefits of this versus RDLs. Is it that you can pull heavier?

    Due to my work I try to take care of my lower back. I typically do low rack pulls instead of traditional dead’s. The only dead’s I will do are sumo. With low rack pulls the weight rests at the bottom of the lift so you can go much heavier than with RDL’s. I also have low rack pulls on back day.



    I will do RDL’s on leg days. I typically keep my feet closer together on RDL’s and I hinge backward a little more to focus on the Hams and Glutes. The weight doesn’t rest at the bottom of the lift either so I stay much lighter in the weight.

    Thanks for the thorough answer. Better than google

    Well I’m no expert so someone else may have a much better answer for you. Never trust google 😏

    I trusted Google with the 10-22 code... Google isn't working properly 😤🤣

    You know me too well. I need you to 10-25 and be 10-17, 10-18 traffic.
    😏


    I'm 10-17, over 😏😂



    Good job Rookie. I’ll whip you into shape yet😋. Now if we could figure out why everyone is asking to be frisked by you. 🤷‍♂️

    There’s actually only very few differences. This is a hard copy of our more common ones we use. The highlighted ones are the ones we want them to know asap.

    So for instance if I said 10-12 for a 10-21 I’m simply saying standby for a phone call.

    I was feeling this in my lower back as I watched

    tbh i’m too self-conscious of the weight I’ve put on. I have a distinct Mom pooch now and I’d like to keep that to myself and the people I have to see in real life.

    Eta: though my lifting has been fantastic lately

    Yeah man they are. They are old school brother. It’s 90s in the plates alone but they are somewhere around 93 or so.

    Hope everyone is well!

    Glad to see you back in action. I haven't videoed anything in a while, endeavoring to cultivate some mass for at least a few more weeks.

    Is it just me, or anyone else also annoyed when you enter squatracks and the plates are all over the place.

    ee9b7kfjciyx.gif

    My OCD really can't handle it, so i re-organized them during my rest between sets

    I had 1 small blue plate misplaced, so fixed that later

    Imbalance doesn’t bother me. What does bother me is these ***hats who walk off and leave equipment fully loaded. Especially the squat rack and especially when they have it in a real high setting and I have to reach over my head to remove four 45 pound plates.

    Don’t get me wrong. I can do it, but I also place a high value on common courtesy.

    And…. I get it. You’re awesome. You’re humping a lot of metal. Go, you. I’m impressed by your obviously superior abilities, which you advertise by leaving loads all over the gym.

    I just think you’re a complete ****.

    You, and the four guys who wear scrubs to my (hospital owned) gym, especially you wearing the disposable surgery hair net. I’m super hinky about y’all, too. Are you coming directly from the OR, or going directly there after you visit the super clean, biologically sterile(not) gym. Cuz….I never see you wipe equipment, either?

    @springlering62
    Yeah that is super annyoing as well.
    Just clean your *kitten* up, so the next person can use it and set it up for their workout, not having to clean up your setup first.
    I really think it should be a rule in every gym.

    I remember in my old gym there were signs put up all over.
    If you can lift it to set it up, you can also lift it to put it back. And they were very strict about it, if they saw you not cleaning it up after you were done, you got a warning, and with third warning you would be removed from the gym

    My wife is baffled how irritated I get if she takes two plates from one side vs. one from each side for our pulley tower, which is separate from our rack and ergonomically closer to one side.

    I leg pressed 50 more pounds this morning than my previous best, for a total of 230.

    My trainer just shrugged and kept loading it up and telling me I could do it.

    I did three sets of eight (changing foot position each time) at the 230.

    I am really chuffed. It wasn’t as hard as I expected.

    She’s also taken me up in weight on other equipment, although she generally does that when I’m running my mouth so I won’t notice, lol.

    And another milestone:. A yoga instructor I sincerely respect, who I’ve literally been with through thick and thin, warned others in a class to work at their own level, and not to try copy his “advanced practitioners” and named me. 😮 Since I started doing weights in the first place to build upper body strength purposely for his classes, that was extra sweet in my ears.

    Now, if only I could get a fricking handstand!!!!!!!!

    You are so awesome! I want to be like you when I grow up!

    I just started doing a short daily yoga practice. I am soooo inflexible, but I'm getting better. No wonder I keep getting hurt... I have no elasticity!
