« on: July 27, 2017, 02:22:40 pm »adarqui gave me a hint on my depth jump video i posted on instagram and i tried to implement more arm swing and i must say the one rep i nailed it on, it really felt good and different. Will be doing more of these now with the new technique improvements.Thanks for the tip!
hah np!
Actually having some back issues myself, pounded out some cardio, 400s and upper body today. Tomorrow I'll be doing more cardio, iso's, and agility/technique work. Dunno if any of this stuff would be helpful for your training goals but just throwing some ideas out there. I had what was supposed to be a minor QL strain maybe half a year ago and I kept trying to get back in it too early and it ended up dragging the injury out into a problem that lasted over a month. Better safe than sorry
ya that sounds like a good deal if you can do those things without disturbing your injury. I cant really think of anything that's painfree for me, yea potentially upper body stuff but say even getting in position with dbs for bench press, is hard to do with a back injury. Can say the same for jumping or running stuff. I dont know. plus you cant tell which is pain you can ignore and train through and what you should safely avoid.i had a QL strain too, waaaaaay back when i was initially learning about lifting (before becoming ex sci major).. wrecked it.. took a long time to heal, that injury sucked.
and ya the only thing i'd say you really need to be careful of, is getting into that mindset of like, being "angry" and trying to just "beat squatting as if it's some kind of war".. honestly it seems like you get into that mode.. personally, avoid that mindset at all costs. If you find yourself doing that, switch up the session immediately and AELS. Easier said than done, but, I think that mentality is really self destruction.. So just be careful with it maxent.. don't go to war with the bar in the context of overcoming an injury etc. Odds are with the bar. :/
peace!
working super hard to keep myself on teh right side of AELS. i felt hyped today for some reason but decided to err with caution. I think im listening to my body, if a set feels wrong i will def stop there and do something else. so far i have stuck to that, it's what day 9, i think i shud be okay to train normally soon.
nice!
