Blut Wumps Another 25

blut wump, have you ever been to a chiropractor? it seems lik you're always having to do some kind of self adjusting while at the gym. Maybe a proper adjustment will help things.

Yesterday I watched this guy loadup 3 plates a side and ask for a spot form someone else becasue he was afraid of falling over. He then did the most pitiful 1/8th squats I've ever seen.

No one does full squats anymore.

I spent around three years seeing various chiropractors and had resigned myself to a life of constant pain. In the process, I learned to do much of the realignment myself. If anything major were to go then I'd pay the chiro a visit but I can do my own general maintenance.

How do you go about hip adjustments? Jam your hips into something, grab something and twist with the upper body? My chiro 'cracks' my neck too, but I don't think that's a DIY task.

lol I specialize in doing my neck but it's not for the timid. I use the backs of chairs mostly for stretching or twisting or the car seat by draping an arm around the headrest. Often a knuckle worked into the vertebrae with a massaging motion can be effective. Sometimes just tensing my back muscles to find the problem and then a swift tilt under tension will give a worthwhile crack.

I don't think it's something I'd recommend anyone to fiddle with but constant pain can be a powerful instructor and motivator.

I'm a wuss but I've grown accustomed to my swaddling cotton wool.

Thanks

I too can't help but watch others squat with a sick fascination. The other day I saw somebody do literally 1/16 squats. The knee bend was barely perceptible and he was shaking like a leaf the whole time.

It's to the point now where if someone almost hits parallel I'm surprised he got that deep.

Anyway, congrats on the squat PR.

I'm starting to feel concerned that my anti-e isn't doing its job as well as I'd like or I'm not using enough. I've also been eating a lot of crap which doesn't help either. Certainly more of that weight gain than I'd like is fat and water.
