I don't need the approval and validation of internet strangers to do my workout anymore. What kind of phase did you finish of your fitness journey if you don't mind me asking?

I started a TFLC log for old time's sake. Reading my previous one made me nostalgic for the days when half the posts in a log would be other people discussing things but those days are gone, it's still keeping me honest, at least.

I’m going to PA school and I’m old and falling apart so I’ve gotta dial things back or change them substantially. Probably no more heavy snatching or jerking ever again. Trying to figure out what to do. Maybe try power lifting but only deadlift and back squat. Also I think I’ll always clean. And probably still do oly accessory work, since I like those movements.

feelix posted:TBH your posts don't really make any sense so I don't know how to help you Squat Press is like a leg press but you go a lot deeper, it's kind of like a machine but you load it up with plates rather than putting that peg thing in. There's probably a little bit of variation between the one I used in high school and the one in my gym, but I can't imagine it'd be that much. As for the sumo grip stuff, I'm using the terminology my friend uses, which is apparently full of holes. The grip I'm talking about is underhand with your dominant hand, overhand with non dominant, and a real wide stance. I guess what I've learned here is that my friend doesn't know what the gently caress he's talking about, which is even more helpful to know than actual advice would be lmao

Yeah man metal all weighs the same built the same nothing ever changes- there can be a shitton of variation with zero visible difference so don't worry about what you used to do, just what you're doing now quote:As for the sumo grip stuff, I'm using the terminology my friend uses, which is apparently full of holes.

And yeah, most people, myself included, aren't logging anymore because real life has become a a higher priority than chasing numbers and telling goons about it.

Maybe try power lifting but only deadlift and back squat. the starting strength dorks made a variation of the sport they call "strengthlifting" that swaps overhead press for bench if you think that might be easier on your shoulders plus its overhead which seems like it might appeal to your inner oly lifter and yes people still log, i dont know what it was like back in the day but i started a log in march or so and have gotten some very helpful, if sparse, feedback + follow some other posters logs and have contributed to their sparse but helpful feedback

Dum Cumpster posted:I think you're talking about a hack squat machine and mixed grip, klapman Nah, I looked up hack squats and it's not that. I just got back from the gym, but tomorrow I'll take a picture. The difference between squat and leg press is really minor, but the machines are next to eachother so it'll be easy to show the difference. I think leg press targets the quads more, while squat press aims for the hamstrings. Omnikin posted:Yeah man metal all weighs the same built the same nothing ever changes- there can be a shitton of variation with zero visible difference so don't worry about what you used to do, just what you're doing now Huh, alright. So long as I'm not cheating myself out of the workout and it really is just a preference thing, that might be my solution right there. My gym's not cool with chalk, but I'll ask about the liquid form tomorrow and see what I can do. e: I'd post something in TFLC but I don't really have particular goals for lifts. We just keep putting more weight on week after week, occasionally switch programs, and get progressively stronger. It's been going really well this way so I don't have any major ambitions tbh. Besides, I'm already getting helpful advice from this thread so it's whatever klapman fucked around with this message at 18:15 on Aug 2, 2018 |

The other thing is I’m pretty sure my days of PRs are over. At this point I’m considering my options. Im kinda at piece with it to be honest. Back squatted 440, deadlifted 515, clean and jerked 300, snatched 245. I’m nowhere near any of those numbers anymore.

I spent today and yesterday carrying sheet metal and loading bricks into a wheelbarrow, pushing the wheelbarrow, and unloading the bricks. It's still 90~ degrees out. I feel having spent time working out helped with this. If you wanna feel the same get a crazy old man to guilt you into helping him move his garbage around to avoid municipal fines.

Groke posted:The human shoulder joint is some bullshit. Basically, gently caress you Evolution. I once slept with my arm in a weird position and I had problems for like 2 months doing pressing movements when training.  Also, my goals are now just to look good naked (do more of a bodybuilding routine and check my food intake) and be a functional human being(doing something for my cardiovascular health). So far so good.
