    Hello Rip and All,
    i'm from germany and i've been training since 2009. i taught myself everything in my homgym, through videos and reading a lot.
    a lot of nonsense too, of course, but you never stop learning. really serious since 2015.
    In 2017 began trained with SS and then in 2019 the Texas Method.

    age 37
    height 1,80m
    weight 116kg
    im a chimneysweeper and mid/hard work

    my current strength values
    squat 5x5 - 213kg
    squat 1x5 - 232kg

    benchp 5x5 - 134kg
    benchp 1x5 - 143kg

    overheadp 5x5 - 90kg
    overheadp 1x5 - 100kg

    powercl 5x3 - 100kg
    powercl 1x5 - 110kg
    here is the problem i dont have bumperplates at the time
    and i have to drop the barbell on my thighs


    deadlift 1x 232kg
    deadlift 1x5 202kg
    and here is my problem. i cant go so much higher for max and mondays deadlift on volume because my hip Dysplasia.
    i have always pains because my hip is since birth too narrow - the muscles are every day fucked. but my little friend massagegun helps a lot.
    and go up the low bar squat was helping the most.

    my questions are
    are the weights ok for my age,weight...?

    and the important question, what can i do? deadlift not every week 2kg increase? switch deadlift to rows?

    thx

    Why does the deadlift hurt your hip and the squat does not? Video of both.

    hello rip,
    if I do deadlifts first, it's not that painful and actually not a problem. only on the volume day after the heavy squats are these muscles so stressed that i feel pain when i pull down in the starting position,
    which then prevents me from continuing to pull. as soon as i stop it works. so no joint pain.

    the problem isn't actually the bone or the joint. that's still okay. also the cartilage.
    The problem is the specific muscles that are supposed to hold the joint in its position.
    according to several "doctors" they are more stressed by the steepness of my hip joints, even by normal movements/standing.

    i walk a lot at work, including stairs, get in and out of the car a lot. I can already feel the muscles. If I squat in the evening I feel much better.




    squat 1x 251kg
    bench 1x 162kg
    ohp 1x115kg

    You said "hip dysplasia", which has a specific meaning. Videos?
