| I am in your boat as regards lower-back and a (possible) conversion to Sumo. Im not too sure about assisting for your sumo pull but trap-bar deadlifts are a good alternative for deadlifting while taking a bit of pressure off the lower-back. | |||

Steve said: Whether a person is happy being fat or not might be subjective, but how can the amount of fat which is bad for your health be subjective? I was just answering the thread title - "how does a strength athlete know he is overweight". Thats subjective, and varies from person to person, I feel. | |||

| It's a totally subjective thing. It depends on your goals. Personally, if I gain weight too fast I get a big gut, which I hate. Some guys don't mind getting fat so long as their strength is booming. Do what makes you content in your own mind. | |||

| Is type 2 diabetes not associated with obesity? By the look of you, you're body seems to be reacting fine to the fuel you are giving it. | |||

| Super pulling mate. Good luck when the PB attempt happens! It's interesting how your squat is lagging behind (mine does too). My squat has come on well recently, I think, by squatting 3 times a week. 2 back squat session and 1 front squat. I can't believe anybody can squat more than they can pull. Weirdos  | |||

| Very rushed tonight. Think I'm going to change to 4 sessions a week. Fronties 60 x 3 80 x 3 100 x 3 120 x 3 130 x 2 3F Bench 60 x 3 80 x 3 100 x 3 110 x 3 90 x 10 I think the frontie fail was down to doing some ab rolling on Monday. I must do abs every session!  | |||
