Lekkere training kerel!!! wat is nu je planning, blijf je in in de 3jes 5jes en verhoog je het gewicht gewoon iedere keerr als het kan of doe je wat anders?
ps: dit stukje, even gepikt uit een ander log, legt uit wat ik bedoel met het naar voren drukken van de borst!
The importance of shoulder blade retraction (pinching them back so the chest is out) is not only overlooked, it is sometimes completely ignored by competitive powerlifters. It was a bit disheartening to hear, at a recent powerlifting workshop, one of today’s top powerlifting coaches say that bringing the shoulder blades back isn’t as important as some of us think it is. Let’s keep in mind that this particular lifter hated deadlifts, in part because of the millennium it took him to pull his inflexible body down into proper position. Meanwhile I’ll argue for the importance of shoulder blades and the training of the upper back to make a safer and stronger deadlift.
If the shoulder blades round forward, there is an automatic signal sent to the hips to round (tuck under) as well, making the lower back lose all arch and your whole spine look like the letter C. Keeping a tight arch with rounded shoulders is fighting a natural spine response, and can also put the bar further in front of the body, creating more force directed at the lower back. The opposite of that spine response holds true as well. Try it. Stand up and pinch your blades back like you’re trying to squish an orange between them. Chances are your butt went out and you arched your back. C might be for ‘cookie,’ but not for deadlifts. Arch that back and get that booty out.
