Date: August 27th, 2016 11:04 PM Author: federal people who are hurt With the recent thread about RCP going down, it's got me thinking. I pulled a hamstring a few months ago and still not back to 100%. Thinking about putting down the bar for good..... Risk / reward doesn't seem to be there.

Date: August 27th, 2016 11:21 PM Author: house-broken mischievous public bath filthpig Whoever the dude who writes Lift-Run-Bang said something that stuck with me--if you're not a competitive powerlifter, there's no reason for you to lift over 93% of your max ever. Maxing out is mostly just for ego--you can gauge progress nearly as well by tracking your 3RM or 5RM max as your 1RM max.
Might be a good idea to always leave a rep or two in the tank with DL, but that's easier said than done if you like to see your lifts go up every week. |

Date: August 27th, 2016 11:25 PM Author: federal people who are hurt I fucked up my hamstring on the 8th rep of a set (obviously) way below my 1RM. Although not nearly as bad as a back injury in the scheme of things, it majorly sucked and I still feel it in that leg when I try to deadlift. Everything I've read about hamstring injuries says that you will be very prone to get re injured do to the scar tissue that forms.

Date: August 27th, 2016 11:32 PM Author: Canary Prole French Chef I cut back on my lifting like a year ago. I was 32. I do a few fewer sets and with like 15lbs less weight. Not worth the inevitable injury. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3334383&forum_id=2#31282037) |
