Thanks
I let myself go 3 years ago, I just started working out a little more consistently last year
I’m genetically built for deadlift. I used to pull 610, my first ever deadlift was 365 at a 165 bw while in high school (20 years ago)

I also thought I’d never be able to bench press 205 ever again much less 135

Good for you, man. It's about trying to push forwards and not setting arbitrary limits on yourself. Hope 275 is next for you.

That last set on squats was supposed to be a 515 lb. double but my hips are fricking killing me. For the last two weeks this has happened any time I go over 455ish on squats and deadlifts. I was pulling 530 lb. doubles on deadlift two weeks ago no problem and now I'm struggling to get a 495 single. I don't know if it's the hip flexors or the tendons but it's driving me insane.

Yeah I have the potential to
Especially now that I no longer can feel the scar tissue and I’m able to use 95 lb db’s for incline pressing
Thanks!

I just realized they made them that heavy

Rogue has them up to 400. I have the 200, 250 and 300. I think if I tried the 400, my eyes would explode out of my skull.

Tried sumo deadlifts for the first time in a long while.
Upside, smashed my previous PR of 425x1. Hit 425x3, then 455x2, and easily had 5 in the tank. Downside, back seized up after 2 so badly I could hardly stand.
Backed down to supersets of low box squats and reverse hyper. Did 3 sets, working up to 245x5.
Ugh. Hoping my back loosens fast. I've previously broken and dislocated a rib in the area, and this is intense pain.

Recover soon man.
Forgot to post yesterday’s workout. At an out of town gym and the barbells are much thicker than I’m used to so that was strange.
OHP: 105x3; 120x3; 142.5x6
Incline: 165 5x10
Chinups/reverse grip lat pulls: 5x10
Ez bar curls: 70 3x10

Trying to work around what I'm worried is a dislocated rib.
Giant sets of low box squat x5 to 265, glute ham raises, reverse hyper and gliding leg curls. Five rounds.
Neck, calf and split squats for 2 rounds. Tabata air bike to finish.

I was doing farmers walks and felt a twinge. I thought it was under control until I tried sumo deadlifting Friday.
I've done it before in this same spot, and the pain is pretty much the same. Previous time doc told me it's usually the deeper core muscles flexing hard enough to move the rib.
It just sucks because it limits you and there isn't a ton you can do except anti-inflammatories to let it go back into place.

Wait, you braced so hard you dislocated a rib? Is that even possible?
Posted on 12/3/19 at 7:17 am to Rep520
Yeah, I broke a rib when I was a kid and it’s the worst injury I’ve ever had mainly due to just not being able to do anything about it until it heals.
That’s wild though. Your core must be ridiculously strong
Hope you get better soon.
