Programming Physio Day! Ask your rehab questions!

4 Upvotes

It's  Physio Day, which means you can ask me, The Kilo Physio, any questions you may have related to weightlifting or rehabbing your pain and injuries! This is for Olympic weightlifters! Advice given is meant to point you to the right general direction, not a detailed evaluation and program.

I want to share you a success story!

Dan has been dealing with shoulder issues from a nerve injury for a long while. We worked together for 2 months and we had great success, greatly increasing strength which helped lead to some lifetime PRs. His rehab programmed was individualized to mesh with his weightlifting programming.

When asking for help, please include:

How long has it been bothering you?
How did it start?
What makes it worse and what makes it better?
The location, as precise as possible.
What have you tried to rehab it?

I'm Dr. Ted Lim, PT, DPT, USAW-1, and I help weightlifters get rid of pain and blow past previous PR's! I've been involved with weightlifting since 2011. I have competed several times and have been coaching since 2015. I have coached multiple lifters to senior national level. Now, I combine my skillsets of being a weightlifting coach and physical therapist to help weightlifters get back on the platform in their best condition ever.

Form check Causes of leaning forward in squat?

65 Upvotes

140 for a set of 10. But whenever I’m squatting and going heavy I feel like my posture is the limiting factor.

It’s more obvious towards the end of the set I start good morning my squat.

What is the cause of this? Weak Quads, weak back?

Would doing front squats on top of back squats help?

Drop back squats for FS then come back?

Programming Tempo Front Squats. Top set. 3(ish) Down - 1 Up.

9 Upvotes

4 sets of 5. Warmups at 70/90. Set 1: 100 Set 2: 110 Set 3: 120 Set 4: 120 (videoed) Wanted to do 130 for the top set, but I was more concerned with trying to keep that 3 second descent and getting all my reps. Also, tempo just... Sucks lol.

I used possibly getting called out to stay as close to 3 seconds as possible, so thanks for being my motivation! Lol

Fluff Scraping Thighs in the 2nd Pull

1 Upvotes

Gym I lift at recently upgraded their barbells (not sure what brand) and they have an aggressive knurling. I've never owned an Eleiko or Rogue bar but are they normally this rough? I'm accustomed to keeping the bar close and in contact with my thighs, e.g. see Lu here, but the burn and scraping is a bit too much :(

Today I tried to pull without the barbell touching my thighs and I just tend to lose connection with where the bar is in time and space.

I'm guessing most people are just wearing some form of protective compression pants/shorts? Any other solutions?

Programming HWPO LIFT program with Aimee Anaya Everett? Thoughts?

0 Upvotes

I am on day 40 of this program. I don’t mind it, the workouts do seem very long and a bit monotonous, but that’s expected and that’s how they advertise it. But how does this program compare to other ones, specifically from catalyst, or cal strength, etc?

It’s too early for me to tell.

But I will say I feel pressured to do the accessories and metcon at the end of each workout and I reeeally just do not want to do them….

Has anyone been doing this program for a while and can speak to it/compare it with others?

The latest cue was to head bang my head through the hole (coaches say the darndest things). Well, it helps so here we are, my prettiest 102 to date.
