Great video and it's all facts. Another thing I'll add for bracing is when doing your working sets, take your time between each rep to breathe at the top, don't rush it. And if you need 2 or 3 quick breaths at the top to get your wind back for that one big belly brace that's fine.

This one is killer. Sometimes at the gym you feel you have to rush your sets because people are waiting for the rack so you do your reps quickly, but because of that you don't get your breathing at the top right. Ignoring everyone else and focusing on yourself for a couple of seconds has a massive effect

Barbells are loaded at the to pof the spine, and holding your breath keeps the spine erect. Yes, you SHOULD be doing it, but with weight that low you can get away with a few reps of lighter tension held.

Stregnthening your obliques tbh. Check for hip shifts and such... when you have an assymetry/tighter in one side the air seems to not flow into the tighter side of the abdomen. In fact, when I rebalanced my core and trunk, I was even able to SING BETTER.

I've been wondering how to breath when doing a slow descent (like 3 or 4 seconds). Because, holding my breath while going down and exhaling when moving back up makes it so i'm out of breath after 2-3 reps and the rest of my set is more and more difficult to do :-/

Likely yes. "Coming out of place" is another way of saying "subluxation" which is a temporary dislocation. Shoulder stability exercises, including rotator cuff work, will help to strength that. An "adjustment" or in the PT world "a manipulation" is not necessary as the joint is already loose.

@@BangSkeeet proper form is a spectrum. Why do you think professional powerlifters are constantly injured? Injury is part of the game, and "proper" form will never completely protect someone from injuries if they are regularly pushing max loads.
@BangSkeeet
3 жыл бұрын
@@steeping In this case, max loads cause powerlifters to have less than ideal form. Which directly causes injury. If your form remained perfect throughout max loads, you would never get injured. But the first thing to go is your form under heavy load you're not 100% ready to handle. Despite knowing this, you have to constantly keep pushing for higher and higher numbers (smartly) if you want to grow stronger. That's why powerlifter Mike Tuchscherer recommends: if your form is 80% perfect throughout your scheduled reps, move on to the next weight for next session.
