squat looks fine, very good in fact. I wouldn't worry about the wrists in line thing too much. usually if the bar wants to move about during the reps it's because your upper back isn't tight enough. If you spend a bit more time before unracking the bar creating a better 'shelf' for it to sit in you should find it much…

definitely. what kind of program are you doing/thinking about doing?

Close grip bench press Overhead tricep extension Rope Pulldowns Diamond push-ups Scullcrushers

Lmao, exactly

Geared maybe, I don't know many raw squatters with a stance like that. Stan Efferding might be one I suppose. Edit, Actually there are a few I guess... I would still rather someone be in that position as it;s the best position for them rather than just because they can't squat any other way.

not sure really it's not something I have come across to that extent, I would maybe try some basic hip mobility work and see if that helps...if it does then thats probably your issue. You might have some real issues trying to squat a heavy weight in a stance like that.…

Your feet are extremely flared out, do you have to point them so far our in order to get to depth?? ....if so you are probably having to compensate for some poor ankle and hip mobility. You will find it harder and harder to stop your knees caving it when the weights get heavier with foot position like that, balance will…

I would be impossible to perform any kind of Deadlift variation without glute involvement. They might not get sore, but they are very much involved,

Apparently freezing them stops the burps.....I haven't tried it as they don't give me any burps anyway but worth a try.

Fish oil supplements contain omega 3, flaxseed contains ALA which the body has to convert to omega 3 and it does this quite poorly. So in terms of omega 3 supplementation fish oil is far better, if you don't like the taste of liquid get the capsules.

probably a combination of a few different things, calves, hamstrings, hips, psoas, glutes all need to be fairly flexible to get into a parallel squat. Best thing for me is getting a fairly heavy dumbell and sitting in the goblet squat position for a few minutes. As the weight is in front of you it stops you from falling…

Deadlift 500lbs, That's it, I'm keeping things simple.

eggs milk peanut butter salmon put olive oil on your meals Fat should be the easiest macro to get it. Do some reading on flexible dieting op, bodybuilding nutrition has come a long way from chicken and rice 6 times a day.

So thats about 17 330ml cans per day for an 80kg person...I think I'm ok then.

Stop the bodybuilder shaming! We have feelings too! If people are using equipment.....then people are using the equipment....you have to wait like anyone else. You don't have a god given right to immediate use of the leg press as you have a vagina.

well you have only been in a calorie surplus for 4 weeks in that entire period....if you want to gain any significant muscle you are going to have to run a surplus for a significant amount of time.
-
I would have to say most likely it has nothing to do with with squeezing your glutes. I would post a video of your form, take a few days off squatting and foam roll your quads and IT band,...see if that helps.

deadlifting in oly shoes can actually be a useful assistance move as it forces you to pull the bar backwards. heres chad smith on the topic http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OY3wq42gTRI and brandon lilly does it sometimes http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FOZ5IT84dA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-l3jVL-GJzA

Yes, milk is amazing for gaining muscle/bulking

the order and rep range is personal preference, Maybe it's just me but I never done a single shrug in my life and my traps have grown just fine through rowing variations and deadlifting. If you want to keep the shrugs in there also then thats fine but the back is a large group of muscles that move through a few different…
-
doesn't really matter..i prefer upper/lower as you can get more volume in personally. Looks ok but you don't have enough back work in your upper body days. I would ditch the shrugs and have another compound back movement in each upper day....your traps will get hit hard enough with all the other stuff you are doing.…

I do them both before workouts, it's really a mobility routine rather than traditional stretching... Pre workout was what he designed it for AFAIK. The whole 'static stretching before workouts is super bad' thing has gone a bit too far IMO.

1lb a week is good...that's 52lbs in a year...be in it for the long haul you can't expect miracles overnight or over a few weeks. Consistency over time is everything.
