so you write your own program? that's why you look like you don't even lift dude. Stronglift 5x5: Weak upper body?

QUOTE(Musikl @ Dec 18 2016, 10:58 AM) Guys, got a question on this squating form. Ass to grass is always better than parallel - your hip crease should be below knee...Initially i thought youd have to go down 90degrees and not let ur knees pass your toes. But from SL demo, he suggested to go lower and dont bother much about knee and toes restriction.. so i just started following his advise. Is this correct though... knee infront of toe is perfectly fine... watch out for butt wink/your tail bone tuck ederneath when going below parallel..work out on your hams, hip mobility if you have one.. |

If you're trying to target the quads then it's better to stop at parallel. Else glutes will takeover more.knee infront of toe is perfectly fine... watch out for butt wink/your tail bone tuck ederneath when going below parallel..work out on your hams, hip mobility if you have one.. |

QUOTE(alienxp03 @ Nov 25 2016, 03:13 AM) I've started lifting regularly since almost 2 years ago. Then decided to try out Stronglift 5x5 and just started around August. So roughly, it's been almost 3 months now. And I guess I'm still way too early to complain or anything. Anyway, not complaining. Just seeking some advice here hmmm....throw aside that medhi take others program,modified it and resell it.And he also admitted he didnt invent that program...I feel like my upper body is way weaker than my lower body, so are there any advice for that? Whether it's nornal, or anything that I missed or can be improved? Or I'm just over thinking? I'm still new, so some insight would be helpful. I'll just continue the routine anyway since it's only been like 3 months anyway. But if any of you guys have been following SL too, how long did you guys chose to stick with it? Here my details: Height: 164cm Weight: 70kg Current progress: Squat: 127.5kg OH Press: 40kg Deadlift: 120kg Bench Press: 72.5kg Row: 70kg Ps: currently have to deload on deadlift since I've already failed for 3 times i have done SL5x5 for 1.5 years before... And now running it for 2nd time, already 8months into it and still running... i am happy with strength gained from it. muscles wise, great quads gained. upper body, great chest gained. poor shoulder and back muscle gain. regard how long u should stick with it.... obviously. if u feel u gain from it, why stop? if it not work for you, will you insist to continue? |
