That's actually an Estonian powerlifter.

Yes, I am in APT. That usually leads to elongated hamstrings by default... and when you try to stretch them they feel tight but they feel that way because you're already lengthening them by being in APT.

Hip flexor tightness is tight, glute activation is bad and core strength is weak.

Yeah, if there's an Earthquake in the Indian Ocean and there's a tsunami, you're dead.

I've always been fascinated by Ireland... I think Ireland, Patagonia and Maldives are my favorite places (Maldives = Heaven on Earth).

Yeah when I used to train with Nightfly we would pretty much do the same thing, except for the weights used. But even these were pretty close.

Well, a bunch of times it was due to using Smith machine calf raises. Two times or so it was because of deadlifts.

Also, because my right ankle dorsiflexion is much more limited than my left ankle dorsiflexion, when I get deep enough in the squat, the right ankle runs out of range of motion and I twist to the right/bend at the lowerback on that side so to speak.

But now it became a chronic thing that makes me feel like a 70 year old guy.

So I've been having my low back pain since 2 months now. Sometimes if I sit stationary the pain gets so bad that to get out of bed I have to push with my hands on my knees. Sometimes I have to wash my teeth standing vertical, not bending at the bathroom sink.

Any ideas of stretches/other treatments for this? I usually do a stretch for the hamstrings with a bent back... that takes care of both the hams and the spinal erectors, like this:



Any other ideas? The pain is at the SI joint I think, usually on the right side (the side with the least amount of ankle dorsiflexion, by the way).

After the stretch it's usually better, I can bend with less pain/no pain, but let it get stiff and it's really bad.

Not to mention I can't squat with this thing going on.

Damn that's fucking nice, 200x5 in the hip thrust is no joke. Where did you start from, initially, and how long ago?

I was in a bus going to some friends of my mom's from childhood, just me, my mom and the driver. I was sitting in the left row of the bus seating, my mom on the right.

The driver looked drunk, he used to go left and right on the road. He took a right turn, towards some hills that were out of nowhere there. He then got off the road, to the left of the road, and started going into an abyss. I looked at the window to my left, and it was that kind of "emergency escape" big window that you could break and jump out. I told my mom to wait for the perfect time to jump, before the bus would crash off the hill into the abyss, and hit the window with my elbow and jumped. I jumped to the left side of the bus (which was going left) and my mom jumped on the right side.

I rolled around in the snow for a bit and was perfectly fine. Landed next to a hole in the ground, where apparently the driver was rolled around in some white gluing tape, like scotch-tape, and you could only see his head. He was dead. The tape was some kind of spider net, a giant one.

My mom was nowhere to be found, but instead her liver fell into my arms (I can vividly remember this). Then her lungs were 50 cm or so next to her liver. Apparently, that's all that was left of her. I then thought "man this can't be true... how did this happen?!" and thought that maybe the bus went left and it went over my mom with the rear tires, since she jumped at the right side and rolled underneath it.

Then I woke up in terror.

It looks like I barely bend at all, lol.
