You feel called out, I feel almost creeped out - someone else listens to the Scorpions, Royal Deluxe, AND The Hu?? Seriously, though, Jenni, I...

L E - the stripes aren't the only thing deceiving, with regards to parallel. I think it was Maybach from whom I first heard this, but to account for...

Brother, that didn't look like a dead stop to me. If all I had to go on was what I saw, I would have asked you where you felt unexpected pain. It...

Your bodyweight is low - are you working on moving that up? Adding some daily protein and calories might be the one change you need. I can think of...

My first set of lifting shoes were from Sabo. They felt great, and worked well, but they did not hold up for long, unfortunately. I ended up...

Here's a thought - approach a staff member for the gym, and explain you need to get some videos filmed for from checks, not for social media, and...

Thanks to Rip, my mind always goes immediately to "What happens if she lifts SIX pounds, doc?" Thankfully, I haven't experienced such advice...

If what you propose works, you won't need the reset, will you? Think about it this way: At your weights, a 10% reset will take between 4 and 8...

The novice effect is something of a blessing and a curse because of precisely this. Not that I'm glad she had that accident, mind you, but I...

You're 4 for 5 - add in step 3, and that should fix it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2OPUi4xGrM

Well, what do you know - they sure are...thanks for that heads up! I do have have short arms, but at those price, I've ordered both to see how it...

That must be what I was thinking of. Thanks, Rip. Wrists are extended in the rack, though, right?

An angry, reactionary woman who demonstrably cannot figure out how to operate a simple set of hair clippers offering to shave other women's heads in...

I'm not seeing you setting your low back, so that's something to work on first. Also, your shoulders are rising before your hips on most, if not...

That deadlift video is only one rep, not five, which is limited material to evaluate. That said, I think the best place for you to start is to work...

You're definitely not too low, Knute. Maybe even a touch high on a few of these, though it's hard to tell. This may help you recalibrate from...

That all makes sense - thank you, sir. EliteFTS bills their two sizes of Shoulder Savers as equating to one-board and two-board presses. Should...

Amen to that, brother. Did those of y'all not in "battleground states" get the daily deluge of dead tree ads in the mailbox, too, or was it just...

I'm sorry about that, Rip - I forgot it was a mini-series. My fault.

Ah, gotcha. Thanks. I seem to recall hearing that there's at least one of the lifts that should never be strapped, to avoid catastrophic injury -...

Yeah, it feels exactly like being choked out - and I only get a bit of it on grinding reps, and have only been close to/knocked out on heavy,...

In terms of verisimilitude, I thought that Rules of Engagement with Samuel Jackson and Tommy Lee Jones was pretty good. It was written by James...

Maybach, I hope you know I greatly respect you and your advice, but is cleaning with straps really a good idea? I'd worry about serious risk to the...

You're pulling with the arms - the way to see this in the video is to pause it, and move the slider bar carefully to see if your elbows bend at all...

Yep - he's thinking of depth being determined by how low the bar goes, not by what his body does. Have you had him do the unloaded "praying...

Definitely looking better than previous. (Linking to the previous thread is helpful, by the way - thanks.) You're staying tight better, and you're...

Assuming you get the same hits I do, the first three of these should help you, James: ...
