Barbell shrugs problems

[ATAVUZ]

Okay so I don’t know if anyone else has this issue… When I do barbell shrugs Every time on the way up it hits my balls and it’s really annoying. It sounds like a joke but it’s really not. I have tried to widen my stance, and even lean slightly forward but the issue still persists… Anyone else have any tricks for this? Also no, my balls aren’t big

Tuck em or just do other shrugs

 

[ATAVUZ]

Tuck them? Not sure if I can do that anymore. Maybe before the Kisspeptin… But now they are back to normal lol.

I’ve recently felt that seated hammer shrug machine is hitting rhem right I get no cheating from legs like unused to on barbell still do love me barbell shrugs though

 

[ATAVUZ]

Hmm. Not sure I got that machine. Gonna look for it next time. What are you shrugging on the barbell?

 

[Dirtnasty]

I usually do 315 for 25 plus reps or 405 for about 15. I use straps so grip doesn’t effect it

 

[ATAVUZ]

<_< good lord. My grips were failing with 2 45”s lol…

Farmers walk

I at one point used to put 6 plates on each side for sets of 8 but they weren’t great reps so I’ve lowered weight to really get the squeeE

 

[ATAVUZ]

Thanks man. I think another issue affecting grip strength is work as my hands are sore and grip is being used 24,7 then going to the gym afterwards where they are already weakened. Need to do something to increase grip strength for sure

 

[ATAVUZ]

Haha I feel you. I try to squeeze a solid 1 second or so

 

[Dirtnasty]

If your not going to
Compete fuck grip strength just use straps

Dumbbells… problem solved. My dick gets in the way for me. Balls not so much. They are not natty balls anymore.

 

[ATAVUZ]

Yeah I’ll never compete, way too small… Lol.

Yeah I was trying to stick to the barbell cuz a lot of my workout was at the power rack so dumbbells are a little inconvenient but gotta make due damn you must have some wack nuts. The bar hits my nuts and then I lower. The bar doesn’t go high enough to hit my noodle. Not much of a hanger

 

[Dirtnasty]

Well do roids long enough and your balls won’t be there to hit

 

[ATAVUZ]

Are you nuts buried too? Lol

 

[Dirtnasty]

Well they came back after I started hcg have you not heard of the balls atrophying due to test use

 

[ATAVUZ]

I have heard of it and I suffered from it that’s why I started using kiss lol

 

[Dirtnasty]

I can’t wait for pct to end the. N go back on cycle make em
Disappear again

Do barbell shrugs behind your back, and do dumbbell shrugs otherwise instead of barbell shrugs in front. Or just deadlift heavy, that builds nice traps
