Hmm, hard to say. Had you done weighted sets before this? What were you doing to train pull ups before? When you say four workouts, do you mean four...

I'm noticing a lot of a problem I used to have, which is I began squeezing my knees closer together to start the ascent out of the bottom of the...

Pain's a hard thing to communicate. It's kind of like flavor. If you don't have a common ground with which to discuss the sensation and compare, you...

It looks like your thoracic spine is not in rigid extension. If it were, you probably wouldn't even be able to be looking forward like that at the...

That is an unfortunate modern reality, but I am fairly certain public education did not begin as government funded day care. It serves that role...

I know about the Japanese dish mentioned prior, but mine was a lot more simple. I just pre-cooked rice and kept it in old wonton soup containers, and...

Best I managed there was 130 for 5. But yes, I know about the vertical forearms recommendation. By "recommended" I meant the basic, cursory...

Maybe we should subject them to their same "calculated" deadlift work weights, and make them do a forced rep and hold it at the top.

No, but the weight I can put up has never been very high. The best set of 5 I've managed was 200. I was concerned there might be a form issue, namely...

I wonder why he bolded it. I can't imagine it was because he was aware of the irony.

Funny, that is a description of me back when I was going through public school.

Did he make that bold himself or did someone edit it that way after the fact? I feel like everyone trying to help the guy wanted to bash their head...

Unfortunately, homeschooling is difficult to manage because a lot of the time, both parents are expected to be working now, and those jobs will suck...

I feel like the universe is really rubbing it in how stupid I've been.

Yeah, I was using a cup of white rice with my eggs every morning before the diet. Might go back to doing that again.

I'm eating a lot of potatoes now They seem to be an easy food to "plug in". Not shying away from carbs in general, but I'm still trying to avoid the...

I had recalled reading the mid foot doesn't line up at light weights before, wasn't able to remember where. I am very happy for her being able to get...

I have been down this road for sure. I have heard Rip advise against coaching your significant other, and it's solid advice. Thankfully I did manage...

Another disappointing workout today. In the future, whenever internet clowns gang up on you for defending carbs, feel free to recall my anecdote. I...

Really? I'll have to take stock. The only thing I could see myself getting fat from in a significant number is my daily egg breakfast.

Height: 6'2" Weight: In a bit of a flux. Was over 280 start of the year. First week of the diet had me about 276, one week later 271. It will...
