Here are some ideas ;

* Sucking in your gut to activate the abbs (wrong). Instead stabilise the abs. pull air in (breathe in) and push the gut out

* not using glutes enough

* You are trying to squat too low with the low bar. If you don't have the extra hip flexibillity your back will round.

It will be your hip movement. Squats done right don't bugger up your lower back. Bad form is going to tell you in the lower back.

Also consider hamstrings could be too tight, in turn causing minor pelvic rotation > tight lower back muscles as they try to compensate/counter the pull from your hamstrings. This is almost certainly MY problem with lower back muscle pain.

Possibly, but I'd like to think I'm one of the more active stretchers/foam rollers here but that doesn't necessarily mean I'm being effective with the time spent or that there's not some other underlying issue that stretching doesn't fix.

I've found in the past that I usually have to "reset" which is normally take a week or two off aggravating motions, then begin specific work for the problem areas, it took me a good few years to get my elbow right after it was hammered from all the bro curls but now it's as good as it's ever been, it just takes time (hopefully not that long though as I've learned a lot about how to recovery from these sorts of things).

I'll get there.

Ugh making me open SAU on my farken laptop mate....goddamn.

Also unless it's Epic Meal Time or similar, I could guarantee you I'd be putting up a fight (comparing caloric intake in a sitting - not necessarily volume of food). I've made myself sick a couple of times when I did my silly bulk few months back lol

It's 10 mins long....could you give me a TL;DW rundown? haha 12,000+ calories in what timeframe? The whole day, or one sitting? Going by the thumbnail for the video, looks like there's ridiculous amount of cheese (fat) involved :D and dickloads of pasta/dough/bread.

I could do 12,000cal over a couple of hours with a few loaves of bread, couple of jars of peanut butter, and honey.....who needs protein PFFT!

4 cups of oatmeal with blueberries

1 kg of pasta

1 family / 1" pizza

2 large cheese and ham sandwiches

3 chocolate chip pancakes

3 French toasts

5 egg omelette

3 egg and cheese toasted sandwiches

5 rockstar energy drinks

42 minutes

Shiiiiiit.....hmm, I reckon if I prepared for it (and got really high) I could make quite the dent in that....but definitely not all of it in that timeframe. No f**king way.

And I wouldn't f**king touch those energy drinks. I'd sooner just eat tablespoons of sugar. At least then I wouldn't want to vomit (well, I would....but energy drinks are f**king rancid)

He's a professional eater; number 5 in the world, so I don't expect you to come close to anything he does lol

He did 120 Maccas chicken nuggets in 14 minutes...I get sick after 25.

Rockstar isn't bad, used to drink it in my LAN place days along with onion rings and milo bars.

There's a vid of a guy drinking 24k calories of olive oil. Definitely hit fat macro for the next month

The aftermath of that endeavour would've been unpleasant lol...I believe he mentioned in the video description that he'd been pissing oil out his ass for a few hours hahaha

Calories are easily piled of just eating high fatty shit. The days when I use to maul down a 1kg bag of honey roasted cashews a few times a week and spend most of the time in the toilet due to the extreme fibre punch. Not to mention it...I was a fat f**k

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
