I had like the exact same thing, and if I'm right its just a torn/pulled muscle in the lower back. All you have to do is stop using it for about 2-3 months depending how bad it is. I was mot back to normal for about 3 months, which meant 3 months of no squatting, deadlifting, jumping, running, or even walking too much.
Imtheheadboss the reactive sling shot works for everyone..it has had 100% success rate. Make sure yours isn't too tight. Of your not a big guy wear it on your biceps with your elbows exposed.
Jim, I'm curious how often Max squats. I assume since he has been pulling and benching for some time now he does not squat daily, though I'm not certain if he did even when he was weightlifting. Thanks for all the great uploads.
I was just about you ask what was your take on high reps on low loads. I never built any real power doing so. My max was 315 now I'm pulling 420 for one rep. Some of my weightlifting friends rather do high reps with low weight than heavier loads and lower reps but more sets. A few of them can pull in between 450-510. And which DL is better for shorter people? Sumo or Conventional?
I would go on mobilityWod and search for lower back. You'll have to do a lot of work on your own, but it will probably get better over time. In terms of doctors, I don't actually know what you mean. I mean, whether you have insurance or not, they can't spend your money unless you authorize them to. If you don't trust your current doc, ask around for one that other's have had a good experience with. Ask for an opinion about what's wrong and what you should do.
Sounds like it might be too big or you don't have it on right. It would be best to ask Mark that question directly. powerprojectarmy@yahoo.com or customer service on the Sling Shot site.
"It's really crucial that you lift with a lot of violence and hatred in your heart when you're about to deadlift." What a freaking awesome quote.
incredible power. This dude with the beard is an incredible squater. awesome technique and Raw.
Looking back at this video, it's crazy to see the changes in you guys made in your deadlift set up.
Great video! Nice to see love and sharing between powerlifters and crossfiters, and not the usual stupid war.
That's obviously one of the reasons we're supportive of our local CrossFit boxes. haha
I love watching Max Aita squat. Or Olympic lift. Or whatever he's doing. Cook dinner, take out the trash, comb his sweet beard. Love it all.
Thanks ill try it up high it allowed me to handle more volume just havnt got the weight yet!!!
other worldly squats by the Max!
awesome!

Some lifters do in training. Less stress from following the bar down. As long as you remember not to drop it in a meet, it's no problem.

damn mark bell is gettin shredded on that cbl.
DOM TORETTO WATCHED MY DEADLIFT!?!?! I live my life a 1/4 of a mile at a time too!!!
How do u wear it cuz I typed it in and some wore it above elbows on elbows idk? If its too big they don't give resizes do they
He said 210. Mike is actually just a little under that. He's expecting to compete at 198 in November. I don't think we've ever seen Mike at 185.
Forgot to add Mark Bell in the title of the vid!
dem girls in the video!
oh snap
Hello
Why u drop bar?

God people are dumb...trying to tell Max Aita how to lift....he stiff leg deadlifts more than most people will ever squat + deadlift.
Ok I just got the reactive slingshot and bench 235 and I barely benched 235 with the reactive what's the problem it added nothing!!!!
What belt is silent Mike using??
You're not providing much info here. What's your actual injury? Have you seen a doctor for it?
What does the guy in the beginning for his mobility? Looks very fluid that squats.
Samuel Inauen He was an Olympic lifter for years.
+Jim McDonald Max Aita mmmmm
+Jim McDonald That'll do it...

Did he say Silent Mike weighs 220? i always thought he was around 185
Because he likes them...or because he didn't change his shoes after he squatted. The whole thing went pretty quickly.
Anyone else reminded of Seth Rogen when they see Max Aita?
Sounds like it might be too big or you don't have it on right. It would be best to ask Mark that question directly. powerprojectarmy@yahoo.com or customer service on the Sling Shot site.
Great demo in the beginning of squats NOT deep enough
+Corey Munn Not deep enough? Are you insane?
You know he's doing stiff leg pulls, right? That's not his normal deadlift form.
mark is swole as fuck!
Would be nice to train with strong ppl who actually powerlift
Jack of all trades master of fuck all . It's not impressive
Who's Mark Bell? JK
Makes it too long.
There seems to be a lot of hot chicks doing Crossfit while powerlifting not so much
