    Great job. I plan on getting maps this fall after I recover from upcoming hand surgery.
    I too had to retrain my squat to achieve full range of motion. I thought I was at least getting down to parallel till I saw myself in a mirror from the side, nope. Not even close. I drooped the weight down to basically just the bar and began full range reps. The next day my ankles were very tight. From there added ankle mobility drills. It is a work in progress.
    I use dumbbells for overhead presses as it provides a bit more range of motion for the shoulders.
    Anyways, great job.

    For the deadlifts, shorter people tend to be stronger with the sumo stance than conventional. Your form and technique in the conventional deadlift has certainly improved, but your back looks too horizontal in the starting position; if possible, try lowering your bum/hips more.
    Barbell squats also look much improved, but the final rep at 3:26 shows more hip hinging which means your lower back is doing a lot of the work. You're shooting your hips backwards too soon so try to focus on keeping the chest upright and moving the chest and hips together. I believe this is because your glutes/lower back are stronger than your quads. To fix this you can lower the weight and work on the bottom portion of the squat with things like pulses and timed holds. Doing heel-elevated squats is also a good way to prioritize the quads and get them stronger faster.
    There are many pistol squat regressions to try (many of them just bodyweight), but I would do reverse lunges and/or Bulgarian split squats to focus on strengthening one leg at a time.
    All the best to you as you continue on your fitness journey 🙂

    Thanks for sharing. I'm starting Week 5 of MAPS Anabolic. Do you recommend the Butt Mod? Did it grow your glutes?

    I like the focus on the compound movements in this video. However, MAPS Anabolic also has isolation exercises too like Barbell Skull Crushers, Weighted Decline Sit-Ups, and Standing Calf Raises. Do you do those also or just focus on the compound movements?

    • @karenchang2545
      @karenchang2545  Před 2 lety +2

      I also did all the isolation exercises, but I found myself enjoying more in the compound movements, and I did see more strength improvement from the compound exercises.

    For the deadlifts.. it feels like your shoulders are more forward than they should be. They optimally should be directly above your wrist. So that the bar is moving directly up in a straight motion. Instead of diagonally. And it puts quite alot of stress on your lower back.
    Try lowering your butt and give your back more of an angle (make sure your shoulders are higher than your butt) instead of completely parallel to the ground(horizontal) and see how it goes. Women tend to have this problem because you are too flexible.
    The lifting form is still a little "not together" like your arms and back move first before your quads and the sticking in of your butt. Try to make sure everything moves at the same time by tightening your core a little more. You can try pushing your knees towards your arms to create that tight feeling.. Feels a little safer. It feels like you're using only your back at the beginning.. and then your core and quads.. which might not be optiomal. In essence. You want to just stand up straight. And not part by part.. Just some observations. Hope this makes sense. (;
    But... It's been 2 years. I'm sure all this have been settled. Lolol

    Trenboloney sandwiches like my dad used to make, are the key to staying shredded.

    Hi. I am thinking of buying this program, however I do not have a squat rack or a bench. Can I still use this program?

    • @karenchang2545
      @karenchang2545  Před 2 lety +1

      The program has at home version, but it at least needs to have a pair of adjustable dumbbells and a bench or something in equivalent.
