Yep

Hey brother, thanks! Yeah I did struggle with low-back pain for many many years. And one way or another I managed to recover 90-95% of the problem... Butt wink was/is my primary enemy. Even though it took me many years to figure that out, I started with flexibility and mobility exercises (hams, quads, abductors, glutes, ankle, many hip exercises etc..) but my butt-wink didn't quite disappeared 100%, it did around 50% I believe. So I came to the conclusion that my bone structure (genetics) is not the best for breaking parallel in a squat because my butt wink will always be there. And if I kept doing it I will harm my longevity as an athlete. So I stop at parallel on my squats. But I also disvover that lunges is the best accessory for me, since it increases my squat and I don't risk any butt wink... How I recovered: Besides what I mentioned above, I kept getting informed on back-problems, anatomy, as well as looking carefully at my own back issue. I did this year after year. And for me I discover the following: I was sitting on a chair for HOURS every day, and after some years I discovered this and did a psoas stretch along as the cat-cow stretch (no more than 8 reps as Dr.McGills says). And after 2 days, I was able to squat and deadlift heavy, even though I had my back issue for 5 years! I revovered around 80% from my problem. I also discovered that the abdominal muscle is SUPER important to protect the low-back, more than I even imagine. And even more important for people with low-back pain. So I created a program to make them even stronger, I incorporated Yoke Walks as well as calisthenics exercises that target not only my core, but mainly my abs and obliques. The problem disappear almost completely in around 2 weeks (90-95% of it), and after that, I've been training and competing heavy for 1 year exactly with no issues. In conclusion: - i was sitting too much on a chair. (I stretched my psoas, 2-3 sets of 10 sec per day) - I did cat-cow stretch for no more than 8 reps (I don't know exactly how this stretch works but WOW, the first day was kinda painful) - I used to not care about abs and obliques, I was blinded that they had enough work by doing squats and deadlifts (I didn't pay atention that my erectors where the one's that were working harder on SQ and DL, so I incorporated yoke walks and calisthenics ab work) - I hope this helps bro, even though everybody is different and everybody has different back issues. At the end of the day we're all humans, and everything I just mentioned above is something that basically everyone should do, don't matter which problem you have. Let me know anything, I'll be glad to help. I've been on that boat before. (PD: I'd like to mention that any kind of barbell row, like bent over rows or t-bar rows are an enemy to me. As well as conventional deadlift, no mattet how good my technique is, I will always get hurt if I go heavy)

@@lalogarcia91 thanks so much for a very thorough reply bro!! I just screenshot your comment and will build a recovery programme around it. You should consider turning your recovery journey into a video, I’m sure many others will benefit from it. Thanks again, and I subbed to your channel, hope that it’ll grow as fast as our gains!

Isn't it 295?

Never mind. He puts it on after the first set though

Kunal Mehta wow

Legs were good enough to win Mr. Olympia 7x.

@@gainzveinz2120 By a corrupt judging panel. He was missing a lower body

You don't know Arnold if you say that lol

motorsV12 well, his biceps are fucking supersized lol

+RubLox He has big legs. look at him flexing. Its just that he has huge upperbody muscles.

+tysswe1 his legs lost much mass when he would get shredded. Look at him in his early years and you will see that his legs were much bigger

@@tysswe1 His legs looked like pencils

+Jake Man Thats good man. Work your way up! 1 pushup one week, 2 the next then 3 etc!
