I:

  • train combat sports (judo, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, and occasionally wrestling, muay Thai, MMA and wrestling), though I'm very much still a beginner
  • enjoy punishing forms of short-duration conditioning
  • lift (poundages at roughly 175 pounds bodyweight: squat in the mid-200s, deadlift in the upper 300s, press just over 100, bench about bodyweight, so altogether nothing special)
  • and sometimes have more time for reading than training, unfortunately.

comment Is the deadlift necessary for an intermediate bodybuilder?
You've been lifting for six years without the deadlift? What have you been doing instead? Also, this question should really be split into three. :/

comment Which one adds to our body fat - carb or fatty foods?
@friz It would be great if you took your three comments here and wrote them up into your own answer. I'd upvote.

comment Does heavy lifting affect steadiness and precision?
The first sentence of this answer could be made enormously more accurate by qualifying it: improper heavy lifting, or partial range-of-motion heavy lifting can reduce mobility. Full range of motion exercises increase mobility and flexibility rather than decrease it.

comment Squat /Deadlift with torn ACL?
I've heard that Mark Rippetoe squats without a ligament these days, but I wouldn't advise it for someone who doesn't have near-perfect form or excellent coaching. Disclaimer: I have no actual expertise in this matter.
