am i the only one here who thinks that he needs to improve his hip mobility or just remove the plates from underneath him? His lower back is not in a neutral position which makes him more succeptible to an injury. Especially moving that much weight.

Agreed that i need more flexibility. Most work in my thoracic and spinal area.

good form, good perf, nothing to hate. Why the weightlifting shoes though?

Thank you. This one's have a hard arch. As am flat footed this helps to activate my glutes on squat and dead's.

I use a spotter to help me activate my glutes during deadlifts. He tries to stick his dick in my asshole and i squeze the glutes as hard as i can to prevent the penetration. It works 90% of the time. No homo

If any suggestions on form or anything training related that could help. Be free to chime in. Especially from the getbig strength elites on here.


I'd say if you've not done a lot of barbell rows lately - give them a go.

I don't mean strict ones.. I mean as heavy as you can go.

I'm finding that strengthening up that aspect has really had a positive effect.  I remember reading a fella talk about finishing reps by just "rowing them up" and I didn't really understand that until I had done a fair bit of rowing and noticed the extra power at that particularly point of the lift.

I'm no strength elite, but I'm good for 6 plates and I guess that would be up there, for this board at least.

Thank you. And that is exactly the movement i neglected in the last couple of months.
I used to do them regularly. And agreed the row is very important for deadlift.
And your six plates is close enough for elite.
Any advice on getting more out of my hamstrings?
Taking account i squat the deadlift.
More isolation like glute/ham rise or compound movement like rdl's?

No idea, to be honest - Any suggestion I make other than the row would be total speculation.  It's the only thing I've noticed that has really helped me (other than just deadlifting)

Agreed. Usually descent is more controlled. The negative rep build strength and is good for muscle growth.
Maybe becose i was trying to get max reps i rushed the reps.

Don’t rush the reps especially with decent weights on the bar - Avoid Injury,
Quality reps - Protect & look after your Spine & Back.

Thank you. Yes power clean and strict press. And i do atleast some sets with the bar on days i don't do the press from the floor.
I have been doing this for a couple of years now.
The technique is satisfactory considering that im not a weightlifter.
I know back in the day the clean and press was the thing that brouth together bodybuilders, powerlifters and weightlifters and they trained side by side.
When the press was escluded from the olympics it was the start of these athletes training in there respetictive groups.
If anybody have more info about that period be free to correct me.  :)

I have to agree on this. It is too easy to loose some of the key points and even basic ones.  ;)

Looks great when lean Vladimir!

Getting leaner. Just not this lean this time. Dieted around for three months for this condition.

Since  you've never suffered a serious low back injury from deficit deads, they may be what works best for you?
Keep at it and remember I'm just another poster here on the forum.

True you are & so are the rest us on here.
He asked for comments & You’ve responded in a civil Decent manner
Can’t ask for more than that.

You are one of the better posters here on getbig. Don't be too modest. ;)
And you are right. In that more care should be taken on deficits.

Yes it is Getbig - Only it’s great to have a bit of decency and thought out replies.
It shows that some of us on here can communicate intelligently with one an other
Without resorting to Stupidity like trying to derail thread or abusing one & other
Just for the sake of doing that.

Also I’ve used and had good results doing power cleans & Hang Cleans
Might be worth a try.
