Well they're a different type of movement (antero-posterior) and they do allow you to hyperextend the hip while under "direct" load to exactly the "origin" point if you will so...

Injury, Prehab, & Rehab talk for the brittlebros / High blood pressure
« on: October 02, 2012, 07:39:00 am »
OK so I had last night a blood pressure of 160 with 91... (at about 2:30 AM) - wtf do I do with this very high number? Does anybody here have such high blood pressure numbers? I mean think about it - if I have such a number while resting you can imagine where it goes when I'm training, heavy squatting or running/playing ball.

No wonder I get dizzy doing any of these activities.

Any ideas? I know, less salt, but other than that?

I'm also taking creatine and apparently, there's a connection between high blood pressure and unfunctional kidneys so... maybe I'm punishing my kidneys too much with the creatine as well?

you are correct although I have not jumped on the hip thrust bandwagon yet.

How so?

Truth be told, I did a 3x12 hip thrust workout a few days ago and didn't feel anything WHATSOEVER as far as glute soreness/fatigue. Instead I felt it just above the glutes, where they "connect" to the spinal erectors. Kinda weird, I think I used a good enough form since the weight wasn't much (used 60 kg).

Then I get you would be better served doing RDLs and not hip thrusts if hamstring strength is to be emphasized.

After calculating the CORRECT ratio during the years it came up to 1.824245(9), with the (9) being a very important part of the result. It makes all the difference in the world.

Ridiculously sickening (without vendetta):

For me they destroy my knees... I can even feel the kneecap "move around weirdly" when I do them, and tremendous pressure on it and every ligament etc in there.

Not sure if sarcasm...

But if sarcasm, then I have to say - it's too bad atg squats ruin your hips.

I wish I was 7 feet  :-[

You really do? Imagine having a partner for a 69!

No but seriously... 7 feet is pretty big and "unusual" in your everday life. Plus you probably wouldn't jump for shit except if you're Javale McGee or Coward.

Natural GHRs that you're doing them destroy my knees/ligaments etc ... did them yesterday, it wasn't a very smart thing to do.

Notice I had a big pillow folded on my knee, it is not painful with using that...
So the way I am doing does not involve Glute.
I should not do it often then eh?


It doesn't matter for me - the kneecap is getting "trapped" and can't move while the body moves so that's my problem.
