I can understand it for back issues, but I find my knees are pushed much further forward on fronties which I thought would be worse. My problem was ACL and cartlidge. It usually stiffens up and swells up after back squat, especially with higher volume. | ||

If I take the taurine it doesn't happen so much. My body never likes the drive home after events though | ||

he's got betty davis eyes Member 1684, 6001 posts SQ 250, BP 186, DL 291727.0 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq | 6/12/10 Seated shoulder press on flat bench barx30 60x10 80x1 80x2 these were a mess 80x6 narrowed grip, better but still weak 80x6 Inclie log 90x10 110x5 110x5 Behind the neck Jerk 70x6 80x6 100x6 110x5 GC Bench, decided to try tucking arms in rather than going wide wih elbows 60x8 100x10 120x5 120x5 felt a bit strange as its a different movement. Will give it a few weeks and see. It seems to hit the tricep more, which I suppose is the goal. Just need to try them a bit heavier Seated lock outs form sticking point at chin, on flat bench 60x6 70x3 70x3 Lock out from mid forehead 70x3 70x4 70x6 70x6 All in all a weak as piss session. Pressing is not going well at all just now, everything is way down on what it was. Need to get my finger out I think | ||

a large fingered spastic that demolishes plant Member 89, 31706 posts SQ 260, BP 220, DL 290770.0 kgs @ 142kgs UnEq | Hmm you can't be that dehydrated for the cramps in the back maybe stretching before you start could help and during the sets fir just now. But sound like to mr that the lower back is getting tired very quickly. Maybe time to work on the tech | ||

he's got betty davis eyes Member 1684, 6001 posts SQ 250, BP 186, DL 291727.0 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq | Dunno mate. It happened for a spell in the summer, and it happened with everything, then went away. I think you might remember the session where I had to stop half way home and have a lie down at the side of the road after KB swings. I have not drank any water today, which will prob have played a part. Hopefully it will pass soon | ||

They are crap powerhouse ones that close with velcro. Velcro tore of the wrap at the bottom, on my bad knee of course. Dropped it and bent the bar. Not happy Rack pulls from knee 220x1 270x1 320x1 370x1 straps on 400 fail Seated rows 100x10 140x6 140x8 100m with 80kg sandbag carried to front all in all a bit better than the other sessions this week | ||
