POST#4: PUSH THE FLOOR AWAY // 405,455lbs

"Strength in the lower back radiates to every other part of the body." - Charles Poliquin

The lower back (lumbar spine & spinal erectors) is not just one muscle group,its more like a force transmission hub between your upper & lower body. Your legs generate force & your upper body receives/stabilizes it. Your lower back is the bridge that stops energy leakage!

If it’s weak ----> force breaks in the middle.

Deadlift 1RM: 455 lbs ---> Target: 500 lbs, IN SHAA ALLAH
Will take time and a lot of practice...

clip from a deadlift session post recovery + BIG SHOUTOUT to my physio, the GOAT u/illustriousDaughter

405lbs

backstory // played an 80ovrs game, won motm, slept & ate like trash. next day went to the gym, thought I was invincible, pulled deadlifts and ended up putting myself in discomfort.

fast forward // shoutout to my physio for the incredible help, recovery has been going well. slowly moving back to previous milestones and beyond, In Shaa Allah

lesson learned: i guess recovery and nutrition aren’t optional
