Fun fact - BMI would be more accurate to be weight (kg)/height (m)^2.5 instead of height squared like it usually is.

But BMI was developed in the mid 19th century and doing things to the power of 2.5 was non trivial so they picked height squared instead, which 170ish years later makes everyone feel fat.

So it's the unchanged equation that's making everyone 'feel' fatter 200 years later?

Speaking of peaking, I just finished the juggernaut 4 month program last week and went in this morning after 4 hours of sleep to test maxes and hit what I wanted on squat and immediatly decided to go for a second even deeper one and that was a huge mistake. Spent like 6 seconds stuck in the hole and then somehow good morning'd it all the way up after another 5 or so. One dude started to run over to help lol. I was in a cage and had pins set but I absolutely did not want to dump it for some reason.

I sold my home gym last year for 80 dollars to a friend to make place for another car. It was a nice bench, 2 barbells, literal half ton of weights, dumbbells, ez curl. He gave it all to another guy back in Feb but not before offering it back to me and I said no. I haven't worked on or driven that car in like a year either.

Not trying to be rude, but are you sure you're lean enough? The key to really good abs is being very lean and depending on your genetic distribution of fat it's not uncommon to see upper definition first.

Just don't want you spinning your wheels on the perfect angle to hit your abs from if the answer is "diet harder."

Not rude, i wish but i dont think ill ever be 8 pack lean, im more concerned from a powerlifting perspective, just trying to strength all my core and it feels like its lagging down there. I do a lot for core and nothing seems to feel the same as stomach vacs in term of the muscles i feel being worked but maybe its just becuse of how the exercise is

I don't know what "most powerlifters" do, but the best powerlifters definitely train their cores specifically. Like the world record holders, for example

Yea take time off, you prob have tendonitis in the rotator cuff. Make sure your doing a lot of pulling movements too and rear/medial work to keep things balanced(as long as they dont bother you too)

It took me like a year to rehab my shoulder after an injury doing ohp and i used to help design implants for rotator cuff injuries, they are sons of bitches. I probably could have cut the time down to a few months if I had followed a proper rehab protocol though.

Mine give no resistance until the end, i had to mess around with where i stand and poo poo but i do em just like the gif from the page he linked and they got tough fast, i did the one armed judo chops after too. Since the movement is pretty fast though I am worried about my doorframe hopefully theres a lot of nails in that top trim piece

There's nothing you can get from barbell rows that you can't get from dumbbell rows, and they're easier on your lower back and hips.

A unilateral exercise will have slightly different muscle activation going on than the bilateral equivilant. Theyre not the same and imo it's probably safer to to barbell row when the numbers are getting heavier.

5 years ago i wouldve said they are the same though

Apologies for the lovely video quality. I've got more plates now, so I was able to go up to three 45s (well, two 45s, a 35, and a 10). I did a second set of two after that and definitely felt like I can try for more next time. Pretty excited!
