swiss ball jack knifes are phenomenal core exercises.
I superset my core exercises. kneeling cable crunch, high-to-low cable wood chop, plate twists and swiss ball jack knife. All reps of 20

wheeeeeey
yeah i likve the wheel things, good to do after ab exercises, I find they stretch my lats a lot too and work my deltoids a lot more than I expected, maybe my technique is wrong? but i'm happy with it
edit - lol might try doing ab wheel with my legs on the swiss ball if i ever get my core strong enough, sounds intense

Might just be my form fucking up, but sometimes it hurts my lower back a bit, is that bad?

AFAIK, that just means your abs aren't strong enough.
But don't listen to me, google it

I'd suggest trying deadlifts if you want get rid of that pain.

ooooh yeah i got dead lifts tomorrow, cant wait actually, they get me hyped.
is it bad to try and do a little shrug whilst at the top? not with the heaviest weights, 60-80 kilos, it really helps work on my traps but might be bad

If you're doing lower weight and you have perfect form then I can't see why not.

I keep getting fucking sore, all over, for ages, can't do gym today, i'm missing 2 days a week because of recovery, is there something to take for that? amino acids or something? did legs 3 days ago and my calves are still fucked, I don't think it's from over working, just slow recovery.

zmas help with muscle recovery
and cold showers when youre done with the gym to reduce soreness

yes zma is zinc magnesium
i take three caps before bed on training days
get proper lucid dreams off it too
if youre taking protein before bed have the zma 30mins before the protein to give the minerals chance to start absorbing otherwise it can mess with calcium based protein absorption

I'm the same bro, I always struggled with portion control. feels good to demolish two decent meals per day.
