I see the Veteran's Day promotion. But maybe he can wait until BF. 8400/1080 will get him 4k gaming at high (not ultra) settings? Any reason to look at a Ryzen instead? Thanks for the input guys!
My friend is buying a new gaming PC, but he isn't one to build things. I figure cyberpower is a good site to buy prebuilt? He want's to stay under $1500 if possible, but I'm not sure he can and meet his wants:
1. 4k-capable video card and support up to 3 monitors (4k gaming on one monitor...
I just got the 4GB version of this card from Jet for $172. I'm replacing a 7850 and pairing it with an i3 6100. Hope it's good for 1080p for a couple years. :)
It's the first thing I tell people that ask me for diet advice (I lost over 100lbs in the last few years, so people ask me about weight loss a lot). I ask them if they drink soda/bottled fruit juice/beer and tell them to chill out if not eliminate that at least for a couple of months. Good on...
I used to weigh over 300lbs and lost ~100lbs by adopting a paleo diet and lifting weights. The average 'powerlifting' split, squat/bench/deadlift MWF plus accessories. While there is undoubtedly a synergistic relationship with diet and exercise, I think the diet change accounts the vast majority...
You should eat more fat. Try some vegan fat bombs. Or try not being a vegan, ha. Anyway you need an energy source, and if you are low carb, you shouldn't also be low fat unless you want to wither and die slowly.
Looks like you have some problem with thoracic mobility and shoulder internal rotation.

Bracing like you are going to take a punch in the gut? Braced like your obliques are sore the next day after a squat workout?
Do you have any discomfort in the hips or lower back when/after you squat? Your wink is perfectly fine, btw.
I generally don't drink the crossfit kool-aid, but you might want to check out KellyStarrett's channel.

I think everything looks great TBH. Only thing I would check is if you are maintaining a braced core throughout the lift. Also, are you going all the way down? Are you stopping yourself artificially or are you hitting the end of some range of motion (knees/hips/hamstrings/quads/etc) at that...
OP, there are an infinite (seemingly) number of squat gurus on the youtubes. Just peruse some videos from knowledgeable and/or strong guys and try some of their tips/suggestions out. The guys I've gone back to are Kelly Starrett and Alan Thrall. But, ymmv.
I think the canonical reason is that the pad prevents you from positioning the bar correctly on your back. And at heavy enough weights, the pad gets squashed. So as you progress through a workout, the bar will feel different as heavier sets deform the pad. But unless you are working with 225 or...
