Hey...those look like my boots!
Plus looking at the background...those screens are one of the things I do for a living. I program DCS's, PLC's, and HMI's like the pic you posted in a chemical plant.

I only did 4 plates a few times on Flat Bench, and that was about 5 years ago when I was weighing almost 220lbs. 415 was the biggest 1RM I ever hit and it was a "touch and go" with no pause. Recently I have hit 365 on flat bench. First time I tried it and it buried me.
I think I have some type of mental block that happens. With 3 plates I'm fine....when I go to adding to it...even 10lbs feels like I added 50lbs! With the Incline the other day...I was at 3 plates and a 10lb plate on each side...touch and go also.

Back in college I had a Strength and Conditioning coach that would cover up the weights with sheets. We wouldn’t know exactly what was on the bar. He said just move the damn thing. It removed the mental block of seeing your nemesis in terms of weight plateaus. It actually worked, got me past multiple plateaus on various movements. |

Have been having terrible pinching/dull/tight pain when in a low squat position on my left hip, started within the last month and hasnt dissipated. My workouts didn't really change, only thing I can think of is I started golfing a lot. Prior to this my left hip has always been stellar.
Found some movements in the video below that I am going to try out. Affecting my leg days so really hoping it works. If anyone else has any recommendations I am all ears. I don't really want to take a week or so off it, but I will if needed > ![]() Last edited by JP10; 07-11-2019 at 06:47 AM.. |

I'll never do the man bun shit, but my hair is at the longest it has ever been. When I run I do use a skinny nike headband to keep my hair out of my eyes. Hopefully this doesn't look as douchy haha, the girl likes the hair so I gotta do what I gotta do.

Try looking up Kelly Starrett, he is a mobility and movement guru. I use a lot of his stretches and techniques for mobilizing certain areas. Mostly hips and shoulders. If your hips are tight I suggest working on the big 3....Psoas, piriformis, and IT band. There are a ton of muscles that attach on the hip. But those 3 for me relieved my knee, hip and low back pain. |

Also you can use a foam roller if you have one for your IT Band....but back before they became popular I used to take a 3" Paint Roller and stick a "medium nap" roller brush on it. I would then use it to roll-out my IT Bands. I still prefer it today over the foam roller as I can apply as much or as little pressure as I want.

I didn't think anything about it until he started doing Overhead Dumbbell Presses. Looked like someone had took a crap down his entire underarms. I wanted to ask him if he had ever heard of bleach? Once he lifted his arms overhead...every girl in the back room cleared out within 2 minutes!

In all seriousness, those wearing them are usually not pushing themselves hard enough to warrant the need to wear those things. |

I have heard that it is supposed to simulate training at altitude, but that all it really does is limit your air intake, which is not good when you are training
If you want to train at altitude, it is best to do that naturally But not by using a device. Each to their own, I don’t judge people that use em

First time in a while I spent the night swimming
This is most definitely anaerobic exercise, at least for me. I struggle 25 yards at a time trying to hold my breath thru 4 strokes. I'm still considering getting a snorkel.

Flapping my tongue doesn't take nearly as much O2 as moving my whale thru water
