fricked around with a new sport and felt a light pop in my low back. Well shite. I have an appointment with the doc later this week. Pain is a nagging ache as opposed to an acute pain. The only ROM issue I have is bending over. I can do a perfect body weight squat with no pain, and I can do a good morning with no pain. I dealt with this before and have felt a lot worse than I do now. I expect this to be a short term injury.

It’s really not bad. Just pushed the lawn mower for an hour and it’s better. Although, the icy hot reactivated and now my skin is on fire.

Hopefully you start feeling better soon!

I started Week 3 of Candito’s 6 week program + advanced bench, and the weights are about to really start climbing. I felt great tonight, and my bar speed was great. It seems like the peaking program is working.

Tonight:

Squats 325 3x5 (rep pr)
Deadlifts 380 3x4
Paused Bench Press 225 3x1 and 200 3x3

Anyone have any experience with a gut cleanse? Reading up on these and it seems like it might be snake oil, but it also seems like something that can’t hurt to try.

ETA: I’m not talking about juice. I’m talking about taking a pill that’s gonna make me shite my brains out for a few days.

Any particular reason you think you might need a gut cleanse?

Okay, I have a really stupid fricking question, but bear with me because I’ve never had proper coaching. When you’r doing a squat, do you squeeze your glutes coming out of the hole or when you’re extending into the lockout? I can’t fricking wrap my brain around it. My glute activation is a weakness and I’m trying to fix it. Yes, I know I should already know this, but I have to learn every goddamn thing the long way.

For me glute activation happens when I’m coming out of the hole. I push against the floor as I’m going up and squeeze my glutes while I’m pushing upwards

I use a wide stance when I squat which forces your glutes to activate. If that's a weakness maybe give that a try. You don't have to go full-sumo width but at least 2-3 inches wider than shoulder width.
