    Having said that, good words to live by.

    Why are "meth" and "through" in quotation marks?

    Squats went awful today but pulled a beltless 445+60 bands RDL double later. Finally moving real weight again.

    Do not stay immobile too long. Walk, air squats, very light dumbbell RDLs, and hip thrusts for high reps. Get blood flow to the back consistently

    This kabuki deadlift bar seems kinda whack, untested guys all over hitting huge PRs

    IPF does stiff bar right and now you’re making it easier again for untested. Why do you have to make it easier

    it seems similar to geared lifting, people want to see huge numbers move. strongman has gotten a lot attention for sideshow deadlifts. i see what you mean for competition though.

    Partial deadlifts aren’t trying to say they’re WR deadlifts though. Strongman does have suits/straps but nobody views strongman and powerlifting in same category

    There’s advancements in every sport but this just seems a bit too much. Kinda like when swimmers had those full body textile suits circa 2010-2011 and every WR was getting shattered

    Is this that new bar that flexes a ridiculous amount when they pull the slack out? Might as well have the barbell starting on six inch blocks

    As someone who competes on a DL bar, making it even flexible is so so dumb. Duffin is maddening.

    Been having some anterior patellar pain so have been doing light load for volume. It’s seemed to stop flaring up as much but just seeing if anyone has any other recommendations.

    Could be aggravated from over use (do you also run or cycle?) and alternating ice and heat can help along with backing off like you are doing. Could also be something like hip or ankle mobility, tight hamstrings etc. Never not a bad idea to do some mobility tests and check for shifts or deficits in your movements.

    In contract for a house. Finally. It's been an absolute shit show with this market. Going for a quick close.

    Single car garage 10'3 x 22'4

    Basement is huge. Half finished other is sealed but likely slated for the kids. But ceiling would limit pressing. Not the biggest issue.

    Got a spud pulley. Are those Prime lat attachments worth the scratch? I definitely need more than the strap handles that came with it, just not sure if it's worth going all in, as I'm limited in the movements I can do based on the setup.

    I like the kaz handles(have another I never use)but only can really use them for landmine rows. Definitely worth it if you can use them a lot. Would be nice to have a stack but don’t have room or 3 grand to spend on 1

    cant buy anything till we close. Im mostly going to lift alone. I want a Monolift system or something similar. Is it good for Benching?

    Rack-mounted monolifts are awesome for benching. I use them exclusively for that.

    So you think thats the better way to go vs any other competitor? I have my Yoke still and plan on keeping it but if i mount the Monolifts id have to buy 2 sets for squatting and benching.

    I bought the Yoke Infinity before the dumb Monster movement became a thing. 99% of Rogue customers will never need Monster but now its practically standard.

    Did an EMOM(6 of each) of 405 DL with 80 in bands right into 355 RDL with same band, then after a little rest 295 zercher squats. I really like DL singles and progressing, only shitty part was those lockouts. Bands throw me all over the place.
