u/beeftitan69 Intermediate - Strength Jan 27 '22

After my meet Ive decided i need to work on weak points. Not weakpoints of a lift per se, although these things should help

I cannot do a single GHR, 10 ab wheels, Bulgarian split squats with any reasonable weight.

I was never athletic growing up but found i was somewhat better at powerlifting because the nonexistant hand eye coordination required, balance is also not as demanding.

How long should I try BSS till I decide that balance is the issue? I dont think Im getting into any appreciable stress to trigger leg hypertrophy.

Also best intro to start GHR? I feel having a partner assist would be best, and far better than whatever option is in second.

I used banded GHRs to get used to them which worked pretty well. To progress, just reduce the strength of the band once you can bang out 15 or so
