You could just add more milk if it stops stirring. It's the way of the protein powder as an added ingredient.

Chest yesterday, then I bought a box of fried chicken. Hopefully will get burritos emergency airlifted to me in less than a week.

I could get used to this.

Had to skip the gym this morning because of a funeral and feel like a lazy piece of poo poo but on the other hand I know my bis and tris were bulging through the sleeves of my suit when I was carrying the casket.

did I just watch someone pass out on a single rep of 205lbs, did he hit his head and have a seizure?

also jealous as gently caress that his upper back doesn't round even a little

The only time I got lightheaded deadlifting was the first time I pulled sumo.

thats what he gets for dropping the weights, shockwave took him out

Whatever the weight was, you can tell it was absolutely his 1rm from how he was shaking. He probably just had a quick spike up, then down in blood pressure causing that. Anytime I go hard on deadlifts I get lightheaded, but I always crouch down to ride it out to avoid exactly that, although I still haven't ever passed out myself.

I hate guys who drop the weight like that. If you can't put it down, don't lift it up.

He just had a vasovagal response. You pass out, twitch a little bit, then the blood comes back to your brain and it's all good.

Here is a scientific diagram which illustrates the biological process under observation:



Now, in the figure above, Popeye the Sailor Man represents the lifter and Sinbad the Sailor/Bluto represents the weight being lifted. The action of the lift forces blood to the face, turning it into a powerful vegetable, bent on revenge

Speaking of skull trauma, is it normal to feel a throbbing deep vein pain in your upper traps after an intense lift?

I forget exactly how to do it, but it's the breathing timing. If you do it just right (wrong) it's pretty much a for sure thing you're going to pass out.

So I am having my morning coffee, and poured a bowl of raisin bran. Starting eating and thought it felt a little odd in my mouth.

Apparently I poured the coffee cream into the cereal. This is what happens when you pull a 22hr shift the day before.

Still gonna eat it.

If you don't vasovagal after every lift, you're clearly not pushing enough weight.

Strain like you're taking a massive dump - that's the Valsalva maneuver. Same deal when you're lifting heavy - when you stop straining, your blood vessels can't adjust quickly enough to maintain normal blood pressure > BP drops > fall down, crack head open, twitch a little.

So I've always inhaled enough that it felt right for posture and then began exhaling slowly as I was 75% through the lift, then with about half my air capacity I'd let the bar down. I've never felt light headed. Are you saying that people hold until the top of the lift then exhale strongly and that is causing the drop in BP ? I'm just trying to make sense as to if I am at risk with my breathing.

Pretty much. Yeah, rippetoe says to hold your breath but uh ... then that happens.

I'll breathe through most of the move, even if it takes 15% off my max. I'd rather not crack my head open.

(Pretty sure this can happen if you breathe too, it just happens more when you hold your breath from my under standing)
