0311 just mentioned something about deficiencies in another thread and it hit me that there was a good phrase for what I'm talking about: hidden deficiencies. These are defeciencies that you can't analyze at a glance because nothing feels any different for you than it ever has. I.E. you hit a solid brick wall on squats and none of the obvious familiar things gets it going again.

There is a threshold involved in these things. This is the point at which your body slams on the brakes and says no more.

So if in the case of ab involvement there is enough of an imbalance between the back and the front, your body sees this as a potential injurious situation, and it does have ways of making sure that the danger does not become worse. This will manifest as you simply not being able to progress on a movement with seemingly no cause. Don't ask me how this works cuz I don't know but trust me it does happen.

Unfortunately due to the pretty much unnatural nature of what we put our bodies through, these injuries tend to happen before these protective mechanisms can play their part. But to stop it from happening we need to be more tuned in to our bodies and frankly, we need to learn some biomechanics.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
