I HEREBY SWEAR THAT I WILL NOT DO ANY MORE LIFTS WITH BAD TECHNIQUE. IM SICK AND TIRED OF GETTING INJURED ALL THE TIME! :mad: :mad: :mad:


Im also not going to start benching again, atleast not heavy because of risk of rotatorcuff injury and wristproblems. Think the dumbell press is a better chest exercise, and since I do overheadpress and dips, I dont need bench anymore. But still, it would be fun to lift, since Im pretty shore I could beat my old records... But Ive come to realize that getting older means getting more easily injured and with longer time to recovery. So now on, Im gonna train to last in the long run...

Did a real good lower arm workout with pinching plates 10 and 15 kg, and some wristcurls, grippers (can do 29 reps on the number 2? 150kg?/lb?) and some jujiutsu-wristflips wich are doing wonders for my bad wrist :D

NOTE: Had a real good talk with a competetive lifter, lots of good advices. Found out that I should be doing hyperextension for my lower back to prevent injury. Thaught I trained lower back enough by doing deads but just static for the lower back. Have to put in some dynamic work also. The pieces are falling into place, my lower back is totally week, thats why I cant do RDL heavy since my lower back cant hold the static position. And I must start over wit smaller weights again with squat, still coming up to fast with the hips, had to lead with my shouldes first goddamnit :mad:
