First for finished with first homework assignment and it's only 1:43 AM
Hahahahaha
Kill me
>there are people ITT right now who don't max grip bench
Smdh
Just got my Inzer belt lads...how long before I can use it?
>>35966808
why dont you just do your homework as soon as its set so you dont have these situations?
i have no sympathy
>there are people ITT right this very moment who only bench 140kg
Ha
>>35966855
It's funny how outside /plg/, a 140kg bench is some kind of unicorn.
>>35966853
What am I, some kind of nerd? Also class doesn't start till 12:30 tomorrow so it's not actually that bad.
>>35966827
what's your next step, program wise?
>>35966865
Y-yeah you guys can bench that but youre not 70kg! Ha!
>>35966883
Modified cms - ms sheiko like bodoribro
>>35966837
When are you squatting next? That long.
>>35966865
Only 20kg away from non poverty bench!
>>35966937
>Modified cms - ms sheiko like bodoribro
pls don't die before the HF movie comes out
>>35966955
I'm not sure whether the equipped work will make it easier or harder.
Going to replace a block pull with equipped squats. Yeah that's probably going to kill me.
Who here rewatching Macross Frontier in prep for Delta?
i have literally never stretched after a workout
what does it do
>>35966995
Seems like it would be more sensible to just swap one chunk of sq/bp/dl a week for the equipped version
idk
did you actually do the assistance fluff on this last cycle?
>>35967047
I did probably 66 percent of it. I nearly always did the good morning and db press and nearly always skipped the ab work.
I just want to squat raw twice a week :(
Just tried my squat max the other day after 8 weeks of Sheiko, went from 155kg tested (trained with a max of 157.5) to 167.5kg for a hell of a grinder.
Pretty happy with that!
Will report other lifts in a few days.
>>35967059
Taking a quick looksie at the sheets, it actually looks like subbing block pulls for eq squats wouldn't kill you desu
doesn't your club have some geared lifters though? maybe ask them how to not JUST yourself doing this
>>35967117
No. I'm the only one. They all think I'm weird and too weak to be doing this. There are a couple of people that have done it before.
>>35966827
I would say most people with minimal PL experience would be shooting themselves in the foot by max grip benching.
>>35967138
Really? Why?
>>35967122
>that boy is weak, weird, ugly in his exertion and everything he does hurts him further
>he is in pain, every movement a struggle, his body held together by bits of poly and neoprene
>despite this, he soldiers onwards
godspeed
>>35967142
Due to the fact that when most people start lifting they tend to bench with a narrower grip without pauses. Immediately going into a max grip width would be forcing them into a form which is most likely not optimal for their musculature (tricep strength would be bottlenecked by weak chest).
I would advocate moving the grip out gradually rather than immediately going to max width, this would allow the lifter to use relatively similar weights whilst working towards their optimal form.
Powerlifting can improve stamina or muscle for sex ? or Any powerlifter who do porn ? So curious about relation between PL and Sex.
>>35967219
Crossfit would probably be more suited to that. Powerlifters would be optimal if sex quality was determined by the power of a single thrust, rather than multiple.
>>35967152
I... I actually imagine myself as shiro when I walk to training. Like you know that scene in fate route where he casts back and traces avalon? I do that with a barbell. And in HF where shiro imagines archer always a head if him, chasing? I see a stronger version of myself and I'm chasing that tracing my technique.
Internally I am a full turbo autist.

>>35966827
Just recently some natty guy posted videos of his 195kg bench, just about a littler further out than shoulder width.
I also have tried gripping wider and I felt weaker.
>>35967286
Holy fuck you're one big octopus autistic man.
>>35967533
iktf, if you see me from behind you would think im big as fuck, from the front my chest is all fat. Even my abs sticks out further than my chest
bounced the gfs head off the ground again lads
>>35967665
Shouldn't she be dead by now?
I'm doing candito 6 weeks and I am at week 3.
Problem is I got sick. Fever, sneezing, fatigue and loss of appetite. I lost 2 kg in 2 days.
What the fuck do I do if I can't lift? Do I just wait till I get well and resume the week or do I repeat it?
I havent gone to the gym for a week and a half, should i just keep the linear progression or do the same weightxreps i did the last workout?
>>35968181
you'll probably have to repeat last workout at least but if you're able to continue without much difficulty then go for it - a week and a half isn't huge
>>35966827
Working out to it, middle finger on the ring rn. It actually does feel pretty strong going wider but it hurts :(

Finished my first 3x5 on deadlift tonight lads
https://youtu.be/Zrd9kxAgvDk
Anyone spot anything that I can work on besides keeping my back flatter?
>>35967665
I wondered where this one had gone recently
>>35966798
Thoughts on creatine and how to start using it? How much does it actually help in increasing your total?
>>35968534
ur a big guy
>>35968567
Yes I know, pls help muh diddylift
>>35968563
inject 3 creatines directly into the left testicle for maximum ganes
>>35968580
I'm srs anon, help me. I decided to get protein powder again to help with my macros and there's a promotional deal where i get a free bag of creatine.
>>35968591
>take a scoop every day with some carbs
>thats literally it
>>35968597
Does it have to be everyday? or will training days suffice?
It's like you don't even want to leave humanity behind.
>>35968639 meant for >>35968603
>>35968603
everyday m8
>>35968639
>>35968647
>>35968653
I see, thanks lads.
Also, stupid question, an anon once said in the thread a while back that his total decreased by quite a lot when he stopped taking creatine cold turkey, the fucks up with that?
>>35968647 are you sure it wasnt meant for >>35967346
>>35968767
probably just placebo and blaming extraneous variables for his downfall.
it definitely helps most people so you should have a somewhat noticeable increase in training, but stopping it wont massively cut your total.
>>35968534
If you're going to just drop the bar, then do it at the top. You're dropping the bar forward because you wont let go which is fucking up your next rep
>>35968534
You're bending your knees when you're putting the bar down before it passes them. Try to wait longer before you bend your knees? Some really strong people do it your way, but this probably wouldn't hurt to fix.
For some reason when i do an overhead squat, my shoulder muscles hurt like if i was squeezing them really hard. Not the joint or tendons, the muscle. What does that mean
>>35966798
What's the best beginner routine for bench?
>>35968841
It mostly means your in the wrong thread Tbh lad
>>35968819
The reason I so that is because my coach wants me to take as little possible time between reps, because it makes doing more reps easier
Also what do you mean drop it at the top? That would be a bad habit to create because that isn't allowed in competition.
>>35968840
The reason I do that is so I can set up for the next rep as fast as possible, but I do see what you mean
>>35968853
For a true beginner, probably something like Greg Cuckolds' 3x/wk program, or really any three-day DUP.
>>35968983
I can understand that, but that's not the best habit to have for competition. I'd worry for your kneecaps lad.
>>35969036
what, are you worried he's gonna bash his kneecaps with the bar on the way down or something?
>>35969093
That's exactly what I'm worried about
>>35969108
thats really not a legitimate concern desu.
>>35968985
DUP is good for beginners?
>>35969108
It isn't a concern at all desu, it easily goes around my knees, never once hit my knees deadlifting, and for those I know who have never sustained even a slight injury, it would just feel like a small bump
>>35968563
3g every workout minimum
5g every day maximum
It allows your muscle cells to create more energy during a set, so you should be able to grind reps longer and do more reps per set
>>35969191
Sure, why wouldn't it be? Your progress *might* be a little slower than it would on SS but it will very likely continue for a longer time period.
>>35969191
>DUP is good for beginners?
Getting into the gym and wanting to work hard is good for beginners.
Changing rep and load ranges is fine. Ideal, even for any lifter.
Don't stress it. Just go lift.
>>35969229
>Your progress *might* be a little slower than it would on SS
Says the fuck who???
"DUP" isn't a routine. It's a method of programming. You can progress however you want.
Tired of this meme shit.
>>35969251
>>35969241
>>35969229
Cool, thanks bros.
>>35969193
That's comforting desu
>>35969251
its not a meme you random ass tripfag
unless your planning on jumping 15lb each workout then it will be slower than SS. its just the planned progression.
>>35969251
If you're doing different set/rep ranges every day, how in fuck are you going to just add 5 lbs each time you go to they gym?
>>35969274
Since SS has you doing bench 1-2x per week instead of 3, progress won't be as fast.
>>35969274
>its just the planned progression.
This is why bitches stay beginner tier for months on end.
Maybe you should think for yourself and try to get stronger?
>>35969277
>If you're doing different set/rep ranges every day, how in fuck are you going to just add 5 lbs each time you go to they gym?
If monday is 5x5, wednesday is 6x2, and friday is 8x1, you would just add 5 lbs to the percentage of load and keep the set/rep scheme week to week.
>>35969299
>this guy
this is the first time ever someone has critiqued SS for being too slow progression. maybe that says something about your opinion
i bet you make the best programmes and have awesome gains with your 1 year of lifting, huh
who the fuck are you anyway
>adding 5% to a load once a week is faster than increasing load 5lbs 3x/week
idiot.
>>35969324
>adding 5% to a load once a week is faster than increasing load 5lbs 3x/week
You're stuck in the numbers, flappy.
Progression is not always linear.
Whatever, though. I hope you get off SS soon.
>>35967286
holy shit you're having us on, surely?
>>35969353
>You're stuck in the numbers
>said in a thread about a sport that's all about the numbers
idiot.
>Progression is not always linear.
>said in an argument about linear progression programmes
m8...
>>35967286
You're my hero
>>35969393
>idiot.
Lol. Let me guess, you only do canned programs because you're scared to take risks?
>said in an argument about linear progression programmes
Linear progression programs is not the same as rate of progression.
This discussion is stupid. Programming is actually so unimportant in the first two years of training.
Effort/Consistency and a willingness to learn are the only things that really matter.
>>35969439
Eh, maybe 1 year is when you can really fuck around and still make gains, progress can be optimized on a beginner program
>>35969419
>hey guys i did TM with memeburn bench, Im a risk taker and programme creator!
you, basically
>Linear progression programs is not the same as rate of progression
not relevant to the argument. you're mad cause you think DUP is faster then SS, then got mad cause "it was all about the numbers", and now you're strawmanning acting like someone claimed progression was always linear.
>idiot
idiot.
such an idiot.
why even trip
>>35969191
Just thinking about weights is good for beginners. You can literally do whatever the fuck you want in the gym and still make progress as long as you're training hard
>>35969439
>Effort/Consistency and a willingness to learn are the only things that really matter.
True dat.
>>35969454
>you think DUP is faster then SS,
It can be. Unless you're afraid of the progression police coming to confiscate your gainz.
>>35967533
>>35969452
Progress can be optimized by so many factors. Diet/sleep/supplements etc. I think people put way too much focus on programming and far too little on cultivating a mindset to train hard and frequently.
>>35969482
>people put way too much focus on programming
Yup.
Your body doesn't know the difference between SS and DUP. It just knows stress and fatigue.
If you work hard most days of the week, you get stronger for a looooong time.
>>35969299
I'm gonna guess approximately six months total time lifting
>>35969472
>a honda civic driving at 80mph is faster than a lambo driving 60mph
yeah
>a honda civic is faster than a lambo
no.
you're not saying anything revolutionary.
>>35969492
>cultivate the mindset
Did you find a chair that doesn't wrinkle up your cape when you're posting on 4chan?
Also supplements are a shill
>>35969507
I worked hard on your mothers pussy for a looooooong time
>>35969510
>approximately six months total time lifting
Closer to 6 years.
The longer I lift, the more I see that stressing the little shit is pointless. Going to the gym and lifting hard is the trick. You gotta care about it enough to make progress.
>>35969512
>you're not saying anything revolutionary.
And you're not saying anything at all.
>>35969513
>cultivate the mindset
>Did you find a chair that doesn't wrinkle up your cape when you're posting on 4chan?
Look at norse. Shit mindset, failed to make progress on a great program.
>>35969515
Fuck off, PanzerBitch.
>>35968983
I mean if you're going to drop the weight instead of putting it down, then you might aswell just drop the bar after lockout. I mean you obviously are fucking up the rest of the reps by dropping while holding onto the bar. If you dont wanna do either of those then just get into the starting position again before pulling instead of pulling right away.
>>35969512
>no.

????
>>35969539
Norse is a terrible example, there are things that can block progress at a 1700 total
Hi PLG, what do you think of my texas method routine?
>>35969539
you're pathetic m8.
why are you here - go back to being anon so your retarded spiels don't follow you
>>35969543
Or I can continue to drop it while holding onto the bar, and focus on not fucking up my positioning during my descent.
And it's definitely doable, there are a few people in my gym capable of this, it just takes months/years of practice desu
>>35969556
>Norse is a terrible example
He's a great example. Realistically, he's probably the second most talented lifter here in terms of progression and potential.
But he hated training. And expected to fail. And he did, despite his programming being on point.
Caring about lifting is important. If you don't care, then it doesn't matter what programming you're doing.
>>35969565
Needs more volume.
>>35969580
Who's the first?
>>35969594
Bryce. With Oreo a close 3rd.
>>35969576
You'll probably get hurt in the process desu.
>>35969599

>>35969622
You fat.
>>35969619

Literally don't care. Assuming his other lifts are garbage.
>>35969622

Hope so. We'll see.
>>35969611
Literally how?
>>35969622
>he thinks he's not gonna come to a screeching halt VERY soon
all of my keks
>>35969629
No u xD
>>35969632
I was joking, but now i think I'm actually gonna set that as a goal lol
>>35969635
Don't listen to these idiots, controlling your negative in the deadlift is simply a preference. Many top lifters advocate this, Koklayev, Coan, Norris just to name a few.
>>35969655
>I was joking
Not really. That was a very specific joke. Makes me think that it is actually a goal you have. Get it, son.
>>35969643
m8 I'm gonna total 1000kg by december desu
Seriously though, I've made tons faster progress than Norse ever did at least, (not to bring him down) so why would I go from fast progress to no progress at all?
>>35969659
Nah I want to control my descent purely just so I don't screw my setup for the next rep
>>35969679
You're right senpai
>>35969635
>>35969659
I never said you need to control the negative, i just said hes fucking up his 5 reps because he is dropping the weight far from his shins.
>>35969706
Shit if you think you wont hit a wall then you must really think you're different from everybody. Even juicing monsters hit walls and barely makes progress after a year. You'll just be another norse, you'll burn out and never get back on tracks.
>>35969719
It did on the first rep, but i bring ut back to my shins, so i dont see the problem desu
>>35969772
If you think so. What matters is how you feel.
>>35969719
>hes fucking up his 5 reps because he is dropping the weight far from his shins.
The fuck are you on about?
It doesn't matter. He's controlling the weight in a near free fall. Don't tell the turtle how to turtle when you're just a tiny turtle.
>>35969772
>Wank
>outturtle /plg/ by 2017
I'm done for
>>35969373
Yes it's deep level satire. But I am a full turbo autist
>>35969750
I know I'll hit a wall eventually, but what I'm saying is you don't go from fast progress to none, you go to fast to ok progress for a while, then you hit a wall, you don't just go from fast progress on your lifts to none instantly lad.
>>35969772
>>35969802
you dont outturtule plg already?
jeez norse aside you weigh 30kg more than the second heaviest...
>>35969706
Tbf tho norsie could actually squat
>>35969802
No you literally go from fast progress to 5kg a year on each lift
im not even kidding, ive been lifting longer than you
>>35969810
Nah I've only got 730kg total at 142, which is like a 407 wilks after 2 years lifting, I need to get over 770 to outturtle /plg/
>>35969816
B-but I'm gonna hit 260 at this comp in march as my minimum goal, and wilks agrees, I'll finally have a semi respectable squat
>>35969830
Lol even george has faster progress than that, sorry if that's your personal experience
>>35969861
>Lol even george has faster progress than that
What? he hasn't made a squat PR for a year, same for deadlift
>>35969870
Fuck off, sean.
>>35969870
Didn't he just recently get 10kg on his bench sporadically?
What are we training next familia?
I'm bumping tomorrow's squat day to today. Call the fucking cops I don't care.
>5th day in a row benching 270/122 3x3 before isolation and accessories
Harder than I expected t b h
>>35969877
So he gained 10kg on his total in a year, i.e less than 3x5kg...
>>35969881
Got ohp tomorrow, going for 97.5kg for 6x2
Plus some bodybuilding back and bicep work, gun b gud
>>35969881
>What are we training next familia?
Squats 5/3/1
SLDL 5x5
Pull-Ups
Calf-Raises
Meme me, I don't give a fuck.
>>35969897
what weight can/do you DB row
>>35969881
Bench 85%xMax reps
Squat 2x4 1x4+ 80%
then a few sets of DB Press, skull crushers, rear delts.
>>35969907
No idea, max weight on DB row in my gym is 60kg, and I just do them for 5x10 strict for a pump, I do admit my upper back is pretty weak for my bw though
>>35969902
Mmmm I love me some sldl. Going for 4pl8x8 tomorrow.
>>35969897
>tfw stronger than wank at ohp
Had to be better than you at something ®:^)
>>35969912
What are you doing for rear delts?
>>35969772
ay stank, what's your bench wilks at these days?
>>35969936
What you ohp senpai?
I've been trying to being up my ohp for the last month since it sucked due to mot ever training it, and already hitting bench PR's early into my training cycle :D
>>35969877
Oh nice 10 more kgs after YEARS, yea YEARS of no progress or barely any progress. He literally spent a year benching the same weight
>>35969936
>What are you doing for rear delts?
Rear delt flyes and a few sets of face pulls
>>35969902
Nice, some quality AND classic memery going on in this post, I like it a lot.
>>35969971
The best part?
I'm doing that shit un-ironically because I need to.
Some /plg/ers can't see the meme for the meme-forest.
>>35969950
102 if you count gym PR
95 for comp bench
In other words, pretty shit
>>35969961
My bench is my only lift that consistently makes gains. Focus on my squat and deadlift, neither of which has become significantly better since I started competing.
>>35969881
Regular ol' deadlift ~85%x5x2
Snatch grip deadlift ~77%x3x2
I think I'm going bump the 1RM I'm basing the work sets on up by 10 or so kilos by the end of the month.
>>35969995
Why don't you front squat? It's not a panacea, but it would obviously help your squat weak points.
Now 'ill do some serious predictions
Bodorio will burn out at the start of the second semester
Isley will actually progress this year
Norsefat will stick to a program this year and make squat gains
Wank will not make any significant progress after the start of the second semester
Im going to deadlift 300kg by the end of november.
>>35969995
>my squat and deadlift, neither of which has become significantly better since I started competing.
What has changed with your programming since then?
>>35970018
I predict the exact opposite outcomes in all cases
>>35969951
I only press 100 but I'm using manlet relative strength privilege. I've banged out 97x2 though.
Haven't pushed for a pr in over a year now though
>>35969963
I do face pulls for rotator cuff though? Maybe we're doing it differently. Rows have been my go-to for rear delts
>>35969995
Not trying to shit on you Isley, i just meant that after you get to a certain level powerlifting-wise, you wont progress much, maybe a few kgs on all the lifts. Which Wank claims wont happen to him and he'll increase his lifts by 100 or 50kg every year
>>35970034
>using manlet sub 30% bf twink shit bw ratios
>>35970025
I believe in you Isley, also norse is getting tired of not progressing and bodorio is running out of gear.
>>35970034
Face pulls hit the rear delt too, I just always do them when I bench. I do a lot of rowing too. I'm going to row and do weighted chinups after light deadlifts tomorrow.
>>35970049
It's time you saw my oldie self talk pr. 95kg a long time ago. Listen with sound if you can
https://youtu.be/kkkPYh-2YLg
>>35970038
My goals for this year is 280/195/340, which is already slower progress than I've had, I get it'll get even slower after that.
Even if I don't hit those goals, I'm gonna train my ass off and eat like a 700lb bedridden hamplanet, to be the best Powerlifter I can be
>>35970088
And how much do you lift atm? also bw?
>>35970100
247.5/172.5/310 @142, 2 years liftan
Training is going very well right now, have set 260/180/320 as goals for my meet in 5 weeks
>>35970086
>get the fuck up
Mirin grind desu
That was the vid that got you your trip right?

Yeah, lol. Lotus listed me as anon in boardshorts on his list of people coming at him
>>35970151
Didn't have another ounce of push in me t b h
>all this doubt in me
I'll show you all ;_;
>>35970167
Lad you need to total almost 800kg to outturtle filip, who is over 35kg lighter than you.
>>35970157
Good job though. I hate grinding on OHP. Makes me more nervous than any other lift.
>>35970184
No, that's to outwilks him
I'm gonna stick to absolute weight since that's all I care about desu
>>35970167
Just dont get your hopes up, you're not the first one in here to come and say you'll outlift everyone by the end of x time. Hell, i still remember Bryce going on and on about how he would outlift everyone and by the end of the second year lifting he burnd out so hard he almost quit lifting.
got a 3plate bench pr finally, ass and head came slightly of the bench but fuck it, im counting it.
going to attempt 77.5kg bench for 5x5
>>35970167
Breh you know I believe in you to the point where it ends up being self loathing for me
>>35970196
Thanks m8. I know a lot of people snap their shit up on ohp. I've been pretty lucky
>>35970200
I'd rather get my hopes up lad, it won't stop me from lifting if I don't hit those goals, I'll just continue lifting, I just like setting hard goals, because it has me motivated to perform at my best, so even if I don't hit it, I'll at least be getting the best possible progress I can get.
>>35970219
Thx bby <33
Going to attempt new PR on bench monday 15.2 (1,5 weeks from now)
Last bench workout I did was this monday (and today some speed bench)
How should I train next week? Haven't done a light week in ages, so should I just do normal weekly routine with 60%?
Making some decent OHP PR:s

Does excessive masturbation have negative effects on gains? I do it 3-4 times a day.
>>35970250
>Not masturbating between sets
>>35970238
110kg x4 holy shit man
>>35970167
I believe in you friend
>>35970238
I can only dream of that overhead strength. A bodyweight OHP is a lifetime goal for me
>and I only weigh 80kg
>>35970088
>340
Cam out rreeeeeee
>>35970409
Cam deadlifted 365 in the gym recently, I think the notion of outdiddlying him is out of the question lol
>>35970336
T-thanks
>>35967286
You're not completely alone, desu
>>35970238
So just keep a "light week" for upper body movements and try to hit new PR on bench 1,5 weeks from now?
>>35970086
holy shit you were the twink of all twinks
>>35970775
W-we all started somewhere right guys?

would you trade an inch of your penis for 100kg on your total
>>35970792
>he wasn't born with stats of at least 6kg @ 60cm
OUTTA MY WAY
>>35970954
I would when I'm totaling 700+
Need to gain about twenty pounds lads. After dropping ten pounds of fat. So thirty pounds lads.
>>35970954
Can I reset my progress by a year to have an 8 inch weiner?
>>35970835
I'll have you know my fastest progress was
500 -> 585 / 335 -> 385 / 600 -> 675 total 1425 - > 1645
this was over a period of about 5 months.
>Be honest with yourself – when you squat, do you feel your quads working? Or are you feeling an all-around hip/back discomfort and not much strain on the legs? If it’s the latter, then your weak legs aren’t getting any stronger, while your overdeveloped hips and back are continuing to overwork.
:O
:(

Anyone else here has some kind of hybrid between low bar and high bar position?
>>35971092
I feel like that article is highly disingenuous. Especially the fact that the "perfect" squats they show at the end are all people with good proportions squatting loads quite low compared to their max, while hitting barely IPF legal depth
>>35971092
You missed the important first sentence to that quote "If you want to increase the olympic lifts, leg strength is mandatory". That article is all about the squat as an accessory for olympic weightlifting, which isn't necessarily relevant for powerlifters. Do the main movement and if you're worried about your quads throw in some front squats.
Heavy carryover memeing here lads.
>>35971262
Not so much "worried about my quads" as "generally bad at squatting and often in pain"
230kg deadlift lads, I'm officially a 500lb clubber
>>35971093
that will go perfect with my Frog Fitness™ Frog
>>35971278
Look up articles on squatting for powerlifters to help you if you want to powerlift. Perfecting your high-bar technique for maximal quad strength won't do as much for your max squat potential as perfecting your powerlifting squat technique with max weight in mind. Perfect your form according to your goals.
>>35971122
Noone?
Post pics of your bar setup on your back pls lads
>>35970954
I'd still have an 8" penis so yes.
>>35971092
>overdeveloped hips
>implying anything can be overdeveloped in powerlifting
>>35971297
Nice
How long did it take you to get there from 400lbs

"no sudden movement" - Five finger death punch
i haven't heard an angry metal/metalcore song that clicked with me like this in fucking AGES
i guess i'm going to deadlift today
I BELIEVE IN YOU NORSIE, WHERES THE 300KG DEADLIFT AND SQUAT
>>35971495
norse
norse

>>35971504
300 kg squat is stuck in my dreams, I deadlift 300+ kg in august of 2013 kek
>>35971510
thanks captain obvious
>feel super fucking lazy squatting 4x per week instead of 7
>feel like a child again because none of my body hurts
>no stress over daily maxes, focusing on volume accumulation (hit x or more reps at y or more weight, improving x and y over time)
>able to fit in prowler work with my buddies now
>3 hour class just let out after 45 minutes because professor had research deadlines to meet and didn't prepare anything other than student presentations and a quiz
How are you lads holding up?
>>35971495
Five finger death punch is goat for angry lifting. For me its either any five finger death punch or that gay shit "take a hint". Idk why but it gets me hyped asfuck.
>>35971092
Tbh I feel squats entirely in my ass but my legs are getting bigger to do I dunno what to tell you there lad.
>>35971525
>>feel super fucking lazy squatting 4x per week instead of 7
Going from rowing 13x a week to lifting 3x a week was too hard mentally so I upped it to 6x a weeks and still hated myself
>>35971525
I'm high-strung from doing asstons of homework for the past few weeks (why the fuck does my freshman chemistry class have more homework than any of my upper level classes like combustion engines?), and I went full retard and deadlifted two days in a row, so I'm taking the afternoon off to just dick around.
>>35971538
I can barely feel my legs doing any work when i squat but when i hit my sticking point my quads start twitching like crazy. Pretty funny.
>>35971553
Maybe you hate yourself because you have no honour
>>35971525
are you still doing your own programming?
UH OH LADS
Too many presses not enough pulls
What can I do to really strengthen my rhomboid and rotator cuffs?
Face pulls and seated rows?
>>35971525
so what were the overall gains to sq, bp, dl and bodyweight over your time doing daily max?
>>35971495
Where do I find this song? Not on the youtubes.
>>35971553
It's a bizarre feeling. I want to do more but I don't want to relapse into the "I hate squats" mentality I was getting. Maybe I'll go for long walks on off days to help be less fat.
>>35971559
Sometimes dick around sessions are the best. Everyone likes biceps.
Lower level courses as an upperclassmen are infuriating. I was taking a freshman class last semester and wanted to fucking slap everyone every time they asked any question because I had already learned everything in another class in way more detail. All of the work feels like busywork bullshit.
>>35971587
Yeah, if you can call it that.
M: squat, GHR, heavy bench variant, push bodybuilding
T: squat, GHR, pull bodybuilding, beat up a tire with a hammer
R: squat, GHR, heavy overhead variant, push bodybuilding
F: squat, GHR, pull bodybuilding, prowler
>>35971638
BW: no change
Squat: 415 to 455 in 2 months of 4x per week, 455 to 520 in 114 days of every day
Bench: 260-300
Deadlift: injured (like 405 probably) to 545
>>35971636
Facepulls, band pull aparts, any kind of row (except for upright)
Off to bed early so I can wake early af for a comfy empty gym deadlift PR.
Goodnight and wish me luck /plg/

>>35971948
I wasn't having fun. I lift heavy stuff to have fun.
had to stop todays squat and yesterdays deadlift sessions short because of really bad glute ache
comes on once i get heavy, feels like pulling at the bottom of my squat and a punch in the glutes on deads, really deep ache in the middle of my glutes
GET IT
https://youtu.be/IsvmJXv2jko
First time deadlifting again and i experience the same problem i ever had and the reason i stoped deadlifting at all.
Pic related, how the fuck do i fix it? I have tried so much shit and i just cant.
