ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / Re: Hamstrings cramping during hip thrusts
« on: June 03, 2013, 09:32:50 pm »
Thanks, but I don't plan on doing glute ham raises anytime soon, they are what destroyed my right knee. I was talking specifically about the hip thrust since that's the move I do but definitely what you're saying is what is happening.

I also have the feet very very close to me just to make sure I put the hamstrings in active insufficiency (so the glutes have to do the work). Apparently that doesn't work very well for me. Maybe they are "too much active insufficiented"?

Beats me. Always thought about him as a black guy or some new-zealand kind of type... no idea.

ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / Hamstrings cramping during hip thrusts
« on: June 03, 2013, 06:35:01 pm »
Hey guys, do you have any ideas about how to correct this issue of the hamstrings cramping, hopefully isometrically (and not doing the work the glutes should be doing) in the hip thrust?

It is rumored that Ivan Ukhov can pistol squat with 150 kg on his back. If anybody finds a video...

Yes one of the best things I have started to do lately is giving myself additional rest days when I need them.

In the past I would just "go hard at it" and train even when I'm tired etc, but in reality - if you need one more rest day so that your training day of tomorrow is better, then go at it.

What do you mean "excluding the bar"?

Why would you exclude the bar?

That's what I've been saying off myself - it's not that I lack the ability to develop power, it's the lack of control/breaking once that power has been developed.

Yes I can get very fast but once I'm there I don't have good enough breaks to stop/change direction (and jumping is a change of direction from horizontal to vertical). Hence my obsession with the breaks of the body - the quads.

Obviously there are other ways of having good breaks and taking some of the blunt from the quads, like having powerful calves and a good posture (so the glutes get some of the deceleration as well functioning at the hip).
