>rocks
You need to engage your core

>gym is on fire
>quick, gotta fuck my shoulders up fast

>>76502039 (OP)
Call it "black piniata" then

>>76502039 (OP)
This is how the vietcong did to me and my mates boy, to extract intel. We napalmed them good though. Please forgive me if I skip this one.

>try deadhang with legs sort of resting on floor
>get stab of excruciating pain in my lower spine after a while
felt sort of good tho, not sure if i should continue

>>76502139
to clarify, got a lower back injury 10 years ago from squatting that i never really addressed

>>76502139
You should watch your back for stabbers
Surely you aren't American?

nigga try skin the cat/german hang next time

>>76502127
Unc was really in these streets smoking that Vietcong pack yheard

>>76502039 (OP)
make sure theyre passive deadhangs

>>76502139
It's your spine decompressing, that's the point of the exercise

>>76502622
the shoulder benefits are greater imo

>>76502622
yeah but i wasn't sure how to interpet that painful sensation

>>76502039 (OP)
Erm, I prefer live hangs

>>76502622
your spine decompresses when you sleep.

>>76502039 (OP)
Kind of getting sick of normies studying the anus of an exercise through a microscope and going
>"oh my god it's shocking that this movement benefits the involved muscle groups holy moly guacamole!"
Just fucking lift you retarded spastics

>>76502622
It compresses again as soon as you hit the ground.

>>76502039 (OP)
This shit just hurts. I don’t feel stronger just way more sore. They hurt my back too, aren’t they supposed to help back pain?

>>76504053
That’s 90% of scientific “studies” now.
>we spent $1mil and a year of research to conclude something that basic fucking logic could conclude

rip elbow tendons

>>76504122
Your back must be all tense and cramped up or something. Should feel good, letting your spine hang relaxed and decompress. Feels good on my shoulders too and nice stretch in my lats.

>>76502902
>>76504061
Both things are true and neither contradict what I said, I don't know why you're wording it like a checkmate atheist thing

>>76502622
Decompression is bad if you have a herniated disk.

Why is so much dead hang content being created all of a sudden? What started this recent popularity? Did some Marvel character mention it in the newest movie or something? I have seen like 6 different dead hang videos recommended on YouTube in the past 2 weeks.

>>76504555
shouldn't have deadlifted like a powertard

>>76502039 (OP)
I like the way they have the black woman holding sponges, because she's the maid

>>76502039 (OP)
You should try the neck training variation of the deadhang. Tie a rope around your neck, then to the bar, and lower yourself until the rope is taut. One set to failure will get massive neck gainz and also decompress your spine to make you look taller.

Is this the new "10,000 steps a day" autism for normies who really just need a good night sleep, cut back on the drinking, and go for a daily walk?

>>76502039 (OP)
Deadhangs are mainly a posture corrective exercise.

You're feeling temporary relief from it because you're stretching muscles you normally can't.

Longterm you feel better because your posture has become better. Unfucking the humpback and shoulder mobility.

Passive deadhangs are just as dangerous as heavy deadlifts because you are dealing similar type of strain on the discs, just the other direction.

Active deadhangs, meaning all muscles engaged to strain the muscles instead of discs, is the proper way.

that's always been how research works, though.
you can't just say X is true because it's obvious, duh. you have to prove it. and sometimes the obviously true thing will turn out not to be true at all.
like, if you drop two objects with vastly differnt weights from the same height. like a bowling ball and a car. it'd seem obvious the heavier one will hit the ground first. but it doesn't. they fall at the same speed and hit the ground at the same time. it's only when air resistance gets significant, like when dropping a feather, that the lighter object gets slowed down more and will hit the ground later.

>>76504395
pretty much this
did dead hangs for a few weeks and i lost all feeling in my elbows lol
took months for them to stop being numb

>>76504917
[OP dies]

>sheriff sees you post, forwards to FBI
>IP address identifies you
>you are taken in

What now? Do you have legal counsel?

>>76504917
I can't describe the feeling but this variation gives me huge final release

>>76502039 (OP)
I do dead Hangs every day and I would love to do more of them and longer
but my bar is by the window and I am afraid that people might start thinking I roped when I start hanging for too long

Why not combine the dead hang with an L sit? I might actually add that to my routine, now that I think about it...

>>76504538
>t. that time of the month again

>>76507830
you just got to keep making faces at them
blow some kisses

>>76502039 (OP)
Why not just do pull-ups or chin-ups?
