hi, if you find yourself or someone else ego-lifting, do a quick post to keep yourself/someone in check, to prevent injury.

ego lifting, ego training, ego XYZ

out of everyone on here, i'm probably the most guilty of it.. 100 total walking lunges with 30 lb db's? i mean come on wtf?

some of us need extra help in defeating this mental monster who seeks to derail us.

adarqui:
my current ego issue:

combining my SLRVJ prep with jogging has massively fatigued my lower back => STOP SLRVJ'n WHILE JOGGING UNTIL IT'S 100%.

work around:
1) continue jogging (without the SLRVJ prep)
2) incorporate SL box jumps instead

other than that, i'm doing pretty good.. i've been avoiding pushing the intensity on squat due to my anti ego lift protocol.. its simply nowhere near the appropriate time for me to go intense on squat. down the road, sure, but right now after coming off a 1 year training vacation, it would be absolutely idiotic for me to ego-squat.

thanks AELS!!!

entropy:
Recovering from this disease myself. I cringe looking at my older videos. I have a squat morning done from the bottom of a squat with over 300lb. Horrible looking deadlifts that are set down like a terrified camel.

Kingfish:
paused reps help get the ego-lifting in check..  :headbang:

(.. just did paused calf raises with 635lbs today.. lol..so much for that plan)
