Deadlifts - How to break that plateau?
Dr. Cranium replied to Dose Pipe Sutututu's topic in Fitness Diet Bodybuilding
I don't mean to be rude, but after 5 years you should be deadlifting a whole lot more than 150kg at 85kg. Something is lacking, and i'm telling you now it's not genetics, either your training, diet or recovery needs work. -
Deadlifts - How to break that plateau?
Dr. Cranium replied to Dose Pipe Sutututu's topic in Fitness Diet Bodybuilding
Squat more, stop deadlifting and do stiff leg deadlifts and deficit deadlifts. You shouldn't plateau at 150kg, there is a weakness somewhere that needs to be fixed. Post up a video. -
Good to see this place is still cranking . Next comp is GPC states, doing equipped bench only and 3 lift powerlifting. Anybody still around?

Todays session; 78.1kg clothed and shoes Dips bw*10 bw*10 +5kg * 7 +10kg*8 Deadlifts Was supposed to do PPP week 4 but made up my own. 165*5 (top set from PPP) 170*4 180*2 185*1 190*1 - 5kg PR 195*1 - 10kg PR 200*1 - 15kg PR Happy with that, that is what i set this PPP cycle at with the shitty gym bar and no belt, will reset the PPP at 215 and start it at week 5. Get around 20-25kg with the texas bar and belt, gym bars are stupidly stiff and bent.

Would you stop if you saw a car accident?
Dr. Cranium replied to A31Cefiro's topic in General Off Topic Discussions
Were you offered counseling afterwards? The first one is always the hardest, and talking is always the best medicine! Funnily enough Kranze, i encountered a car accident and grass fire in the past 2 days, both times plenty of people got out of their cars to help, and not 1 had their phone out. -

ok, lets say its a fatality.the dead body could be in the car thats off the side of the rd and the one blocking traffic the driver got out and is safe. moving that car could of lost valuable evidence. im only speculating here. do what every you feel is the best thing at the time First priority is to make the scene safe, cars lying in the middle of the road are not safe, of course if the police are there and have the traffic blocked then there is no point. The body is cut out of the car relatively quickly anyways. -

In your dark world that may be the case, but you don't stop at an accident in which cars are torn in half and there is blood and body parts everywhere to tell your friends about it, most people never recover from seeing things like that.
