And how's it going? I for one can't bend with my arms lower than knee level or else medial left buttock pain occurs. Non-injured I can put my palm on the floor (or could...).
Not sure what's going on, this is a self-diagnostic.

So what exactly did you changed in terms of nutrition? What and how often were you eating before and how about now?

I always thought Norway (well, actually Sweden but they're the same for me) is very civilized... like, you drop your camera on the street and come back the next day and find it there.
The funny thing is - during Vlad Tepes' time in Valahia (Dracula for those of you who like it shortened), that was actually the case. They didn't have cameras back then but you could find your bag of gold if you dropped it because the penalty was death by "pulling into sword". So... you know...

Has your core/midsection started to shake under that weight? If not, then that's incredible core strength.

Oh, another note:
If I sit exactly like in a leg extension position and extend the leg, the pain is felt in the left buttock. It might actually be an injury that happened because I started to do high volume leg extensions? Maybe there was a muscle that wasn't ready for that? Or it's totally unrelated and it's just a matter of that muscle hurting when it's stretched by my position with the leg extended at the knee and body bent at the waist?

Wait, you let your videocam unsupervised OUTSIDE of the store? Didn't the store have a locker for things you have from other stores?

Not sure. It might be a gluteus medius thing (after my super-intense lightning bolt like pain days ago).

« on: April 29, 2011, 05:54:15 am »I tried unracking today and did 315lbs 2x and 405lbs 3x. The unracking part is the easy part. What am I really working, didn't walk it out or anything. Are you really gaining strength from this or is it for confidence?

In my opinion they are intertwined. You can't be strong without being confident, and you can't be confident without being strong (unless you're crazy). Just "pure" strength is generating and maintaining a tension, which you're doing when you're unracking (albeit not on an expanded range of motion, but the tension is still there).
