Honestly speaking, the docs/phys therapists where I live don't know ****.
They asked me to show them my deadlift and squat form and when I went parallel on squat they said it was too far. Verbatim they told me "You don't need to go parallel on squat, it's bad for you." It was the most ridiculous bull**** I ever heard. |

| | | it sucks when doctors don't know anything about training. Honestly, for training related stuff, regular doctors are crap. You need someone who has experience with treating athletes and the likes, someone who knows what they are talking about. |

| | yes well, unfortunately no one has any idea what they are talking about around here (as in where i live not this forum).
I had a personal traininer at my gym tell me squats are bad for your body, and that distance running built overall body strength.
I had a doctor tell me that distance running is better than weight training and HIIT for weight loss.
I had my physical therapist tell me not to go parallel on squats.
It's all one big joke around here.
anyway, improvement going well so far, i have no wrist pain at all anymore (i've had tendonitis in both wrists for those of you who remember) |

| | | so here's my plan.
I've cut alot of fat in the past year, but i'm in need of putting on some muscle (as you can probably tell from the numbers I've put up). Therefore, I'm gonna finish out strength I and II until summer starts (june anyway). THen I'm going to do all 3 Fat Loss Programs in NROL during the summer and shed the rest of the fat (Hoping to get to 10~11%) and then start a bulk again (clean bulk) when school starts back up. And hopefully, I'll enjoy my senior year as the only year in school that I was truly fit.
BTW
I qualified for national merit scholar the other day. 50,000 kids out of 1.5 million that take the PSAT make it. |

Deadlift

back was startin to feel weird, so I stopped, (not cuz i'm being a *****, I have stress fractures in the spine...)
So, I did some practice with full squat
80x10
115x6
135x6
all pretty easy, i tihnk i'll start full squat next workout A4 just for kicks
it'll be less weight since more ROM, and therefore better for my back, so it can't be too bad. |
