Nice pressing Hops. That cat vid would've been funny as hell but I probably would've pissed myself if that happened to me in the middle of a rep.

Todays Pulls






I think I had the bar setup wrong on the last PR rep,I kinda got a bit crooked with it and lost the groove a bit.

Guys,these are my split squats,I get a great feel thru the glutes and hams on my right leg but with my left I got nothing goin on,I have little control and I cant seem to get my glutes to fire and take control of the movement (if that makes sense!)

Can yall see anything in my form that might be the cause or is it mobility/stability related?

Cheers



EDIT** The 1st set is my right leg then the left !

im thinking a better music selection would help your glutes fire.



do you do any glute activation before you work out? like supine bridges and single leg supine bridges? and band side steps?

If you can, try to load your hams at the top of the lunge the same as you would a squat (butt out, big air, stomach out, etc.) That might help. I'm not really sure. I would try it, but I'm kind of MIA.

You have 170 in the bag. Did you attempt it again? When I pull sumo, if I can get it to budge a millimeter, then I can pull it. You got it moving okay....I bet you could pull it.

Dammit he got me,just wait till your next vid pity!!

BTW I didnt do any of those activation drills!! I completley forgot to do those bandwalks.I did do some work with the tennis ball.

Thyx for the tips Ross,I'll give it a try. I didnt try 170kg again,I thought no use getting missed twice and I already scored a PR,I'll save it for next time I sumo it.

Thx Boys.
