"Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind." - Matthew 22:37
Kneeling Waiter's Bent Presses w/ @ivankobarbell 75lb Pancake. By most accounts, l shouldn't have even bothered, but it doesn't hurt to try and just see if l can EASE into it. If this was a Biceps Curl or some such, l wouldn't push it, but with a lift that gives so much and loosens up things l need opened up, l'm DEFINITELY gonna see if l can ease into it. As long as each successful attempt shows improvement, l keep going. Programs & Routines are food, but listening to your body is best! God Bless.

00:01If a client felt like I did waking up, if I could understand they felt that much pain
00:07and pulling in their back, in their hips, then I would absolutely give them a free pass
00:12and say, let's move on to something else, or if you feel like you need the day off,
00:15fine, take the day off.
00:17The only thing to be gained is if the client decides to move forward anyways, and to encourage
00:25them to lightly move forward, or gently move forward.
00:28It's kind of like foreplay, you know, you got to kind of take your time and see if things
00:32are going to happen, things are going to go your way.
00:35The client will gain some mental fortitude, you know, and some education on, well, the
00:42body, just because the body immediately says no, doesn't mean you can't coax it into saying,
00:49well, maybe a little bit more, maybe you can do a little bit more, and next thing you know,
00:53you're doing the full movement, you know.
00:55So, what I'm doing here is, is I just woke up, I haven't had any coffee.
00:5975 pounds on a kneeling bend press is a fair amount of weight for me, my max is a little
01:05over 100 pounds, so my body just was aching and hurting pretty bad.
01:12And so, I'm going to give it two tries each side, and because I noticed that each side
01:19is feeling better, or each attempt is feeling a little bit better, a little bit better,
01:24I'm not forcing it, I'm just trying to see if I can get a little more movement each time
01:29I give it a run.
01:30And so, if you're patient, and you're listening, you can get away with training on days that
01:38on paper it looks like you should be taking a break, taking the day off, or moving on to
01:43a different lift.
01:45So, it's really hard to give hard and fast rules, except the hard and fast rule of, if
01:54you listen to your body, you're going to get much further ahead than if you didn't.
01:58A program can only do so much.
02:00So, here I am, third try on each side, and let's see what happens.
02:19Hallelujah.
02:21Thank you, Jesus.
02:32Ivanko, Pancake 75.
02:36Wow.
02:42Oh.
02:49What a monster.
