Yeah, it frys the shoulders. It should sort itself out pretty quickly though as it's mostly and endurance thing. Ninety seconds for the side planks already is pretty good. Get the regular planks up to at least 2 minutes...when your shoulders can take it . It ain't a walk in the park.

You should find as the glutes and posterior chain in general gets stronger you will have less problems with the knees. Also ankle mobility can play a part as well as hip mobility. From time to time though the knees can get achey when you do a lot of squatting and a little switch like this can fix them up but basically it's the all squatting and little else that leads to this. Squatting is good for the knees in some ways but they will not in themselves cure a weak a relatively weak PC. Just the opposite, really, a strong PC can help cure a bad squat.

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

one leg squats - found 5RM - 35's, 3 x 5

incline bench - 115, 3 x 5

js rows - 105, 3 x 5

RDL's - 70 x 5......90, 2 x 5

dips - bw, 3 x 20

plank - made 60 seconds, and then got a phone call..



balancing was tough on the one leggers....but fun...right leg is stronger than left leg.

inclines flew up...rows flew up...was good to hit the js rows. been awhile. rdl's are fun...love the hamstring work.

i have not taken a break from loading on deadlifts since like........september. so i think...i may go back to the a-b-a format...do some lighter deads twice a week every other week and really focus on form...and romanians once that week on wednesday which will turn into heavy squat day...do stepups monday and single legs friday. and rotate through t bar rows, js rows, and chest supported rows.

i'll have to video them..but i think on the heavy deads the bar is still going straight up from the ground...but i'm not really leaning back on the heels and letting the hams do some work...so maybe light form work + rdl's = good. we shall see.
