I misgrooved horribly on the decent since it's literally my first day doing lowbar.. Then I realized I didn't go all the way to depth and I'm not a high squatting bitch, so I fixed it.
>>37805680
>>37805680
REEEEE i did ask for you in that thread.
but seriously.
My brother has two revolvers, a shotgun (dont want), a serbian AK, an AR, and a glock.
wat is good starter gun.
people on the internet seem to like the one benchie said was decent--the ruger 10/22
what say you?
>>37805712
Just make your own name and trip, dude.
Post some lifts.
also
I haven't gotten a proper depth check in a while, so I did today. pretty happy with this tBh, I am doing some different cuing and I think it is working really well both for keeping my knees out and my back from rounding, so that's cool.
I know the weight isn't a very high %, but whatever, these felt pretty low RPE so I'm happy with them
>>37805744
what cues are you using?
>>37805722

>>37805665
>>37805684
You're focusing WAAAAYYY too much on the sit back cue, whoever is coaching you is doing you wrong.
I lowbar with the exact same movement i highbar with--the bar positioning itself ensures my hips sit back, i don't have to cue it deliberately. The concentric is a bit different, but descending into the hole is literally the same. Try that.
>>37806045
boardshorts is always patronizing

>squatting high
>>37806117
whats your deal with trappy
>>37806137
That's not the real Sean.
>>37806103
Nah, watch his knees. They hit the end ROM for his ankles really quick, hes got them long thighbones.
Alex if youre here, I highly recommend squat shoes. It may help with the upper back rounding as well. Sometimes the back rounds to keep the bar over midfoot if youre lacking mobility at the hip or ankle.
>>37806122
First time offences are a four year ban for a prohibited substance. It should be noted that cannabinoids are banned in comp only and the threshold is 150 nanos per milliliter (It was once 15).
>>37806146
I know, there's another anon that hates trappy
sean "hates" her because his sexual identity confuses him and he lashes out
>>37806156
The solution to that issue is widening the stance and turning the feet out more, both of which he does need to do.
>>37806123
Spoken like a true faggot
>>37806137
He's an attention whore and he is insanely weak. His info is copy and pasted and white knights act like he re invented the wheel.
>>37806192
Is it still 3 strikes for a perma ban? I know ed coan got caught 3 times before being banned for life but it seems like it'd be more strict these days
>>37806198
Yeah. Sean's at least post-ironic about the whole thing. This kids just clearly got some self loathing from being so repressed.
>>37806208

Good one
>>37806202
Yeah, I think I'm going to try this next time. Regardless, that 285 felt way easier than it ever did high bar. Even that 300 that I misgrooved horribly went up pretty quick. I'm pretty hopeful about low bar.
Also, taking Joff's advice about sumo. How does this look?
I want to film my one rep max attempts today to post here but I need my music to actually hit them. What do?

That's not Sean. Well, the guy you quoted may be, but the repressed anon is not.
>>37806337
wtf?
>>37806348
>>37806337
Also, for what it's worth, I think your stance needs to come in a bit. We're looking for vertical shins when we pull.
>>37806351
All the test went to making his dick big instead of his lifts
>>37806358
Wish that fucker would just use a trip. I wouldn't even filter him, I just want to know when it's Sean or a regular seanposter
>>37806358
hows your training going?
500 squat soon?
>>37806374
Joff was specifically saying to use a really wide stance. So wide that your ankles are outside your knees. That's what I was trying out.
>>37806372
>2016
>locking out your knees on your deadlifts at the same time
Get with the times, senpai.
Seriously though with that deadlift and this squat >>37805684 that was a pretty hilarious workout.
To get stronger, you need to do more volume over time.
How much should tonnage increase to spur progress on a weekly basis for intermediate/novice lifter? Say my tonnage for squats are 3000 on day 1 and 3500 on day two for a combined 6500. How much should that tonnage increase on weeky/monthly basis to continue progress? Maybe a set percentage?
>>37806402

No. My squats have been shitting the bed all over the fucking place. Numbers are moving up though, but just now getting back to my numbers when I was a 93. Hopefully gonna break the 550kg barrier at my next meet and then leave the 83kg weightclass behind and never look back.

You know what? I don't mind this. I'm kinda bored right now and this is pretty funny
Who else /trainsalone/?
I'm the guy at the gym who says nothing and makes no effort to talk to anyone. Don't really mind it desu, would be nice if there was someone else who did squats though, we could spot each other and kiss afterwards
>>37807031
I'm kind of the opposite. I have a lot of gymbros who I squat bench and deadlift with.
That kissing part tho - there's a guy I'd love to do that with. Too bad I can't :/
>>37807145
I was joking but real talk, my girlfriend is convinced I'm gay cause I talk about how much I admire famous powerlifters/BBers
>>37807166
Kek... that's pretty funny
I wasn't joking though :(
>>37807031
I do when my brother has a different work sched than I.
It gets annoying for bench though. For some inexplicable reason it feels silly finding a spotter, but I need one in order to not lose 80% of my tightness getting the bar unracked.
>>37807205
Yeah I get that, Im fairly sure my lower bench is because of the fact that lifting off without a spotter just loses me half of my arch and tightness
>>37807166
Good bodybuilding is just good endocrinology, I cant really admire it. I respect the sacrifice you gotta make, but I just dont admire it in any way. I dont 'look up to' any BBs.
Lifters though? Powerlifter and especially Olypic lifters I greatly admire. Oly lifters more so than PLers just because of the skill required let alone the strength, I find PL much more enjoyable to train though.
>>37807205
>>37807235
can't you retighten once you unrack? I've never had anyone unrack the bar for me
>>37807175
Bro figure your shit out. Youre not any better than the fucking >tfw no gf losers. Complaining does shit. We're not a fucking hugbox, ask for help , and take the advice, or SHUT the FUCK up
>>37807251
Maybe you can, but it makes a huge difference for me. It might just be because my gyms benches kinda suck, the pins are way too high and Im a monkey armed lanklet
>>37807269
it's just late night memes friend, relax, take a deep breath
>>37807286
to be fair, I've never actually had the bar unracked for me, and I'm a short armed manlet lol
>>37807251
Not as effectively as you can get tight before the unrack. Settling the bar and repositioning yourself helps but there's a limit to what it can accomplish.
>>37807304
Damn, guess I'll have to try it next time I bench!
thans anons
>>37807245
Yeah i agree
I definitely am more interested in powerlifting than oly but Lu xiaojun and people like him are fucking beasts. They're on the same tier as people like coan and Spoto imo
>>37805665
>>37806103
i agree with this.
>>37805684
LOL
>>37805744
>470x2
>not very high percent
i hate you.
>>37806248
much better imo.
>>37806337
didn't set up even, i think??
also should still do paused work to keep your knees out. still looks better.
>>37806435
different strokes for different folks i guess. personally i'm much weaker with vertical shins.
>>37807315
>coan
>spoto
WHY ARE YOU HERE?
>>37807314
How much it helps varies. If you're lucky enough to have a good rack height where you can basically do a straight-arm pulldown to get the bar into position, it doesn't help much. If you've got super deep hooks or they're at a bad height and you need to press it out of the rack then a handoff helps more.
>>37806045
Let me guess, this is you >>37806469
>>37807346
I have to press the bar maybe an inch or two to get it out of the rack. But I don't think that really effects my lift that much - my triceps aren't my weak point in my bench, I'm pretty sure it's my delts. My sticking point is pretty much halfway through the rep.
>>37807333
?
Implying Spoto and coan aren't part of the goat tier?
>>37807370
hi trappy chan can you tell sean to stop impersonating me
>>37807374
Its not about the triceps being a weak point, its more about the movement required to press it out of the rack having a tendency to fuck with tightness and scapula positioning. Its effectively the same thing as overextending at the top of a rep and letting your shoulderblades start to come forward.
Usually its not a big deal except on very high % attempts unless someone is stuck with a really bad unrack height.
>>37807374
If it was delts your stciking point would be lifting off your chest or the first inch or two, thats the weakest position for them.
The sticking point in the middle is just were the pec is weakest. Not to say your chest is weak in comparison to your triceps or delts, just too weak for the lift.
>>37807376
neither of them are powerlifters
>>37807413
ah okay thanks dude. I've done max attempts and mine is pretty fine. I'll try having a guy unrack it for me on my 2pl8 attempt coming up soon
>>37807416
really? I heard getting it off your chest was the main chest activation, middle was delts, and top part was triceps. It's not directly middle - i'd say lower middle. Plus my OHP is pretty weak compared to my bench, so I'd assumed a delt weakness
Hey Lith and WeakLifts can you please POST AS ANON YOU WEAK, UNHELPFUL FUCKING CUNTS. I like to lift weights and I like bants and I especially like /plg/ culture and memes at times but I'm WEAK and INEXPERIENCED so I keep my mouth SHUT and I certainly don't adopt a name or persona for myself because let's face it, NOBODY CARES ABOUT MY PATHETIC TRAINING AND THEY CERTAINLY DON'T CARE ABOUT MY LIFE OUTSIDE OF THAT. FUCK. JUST FUCK OFF.
Meanwhile strong trips like Phil and Virtus, who actually have interesting and useful things to share, don't anymore because the general is so shitty now. If Buda hadn't come back there'd be zero reason to even open these threads anymore.

>>37807429
Hey joff you're cool but don't act like anyone that posts in these threads except for the best and strongest trips have even a shred of the sheer dedication and perseverance it takes to achieve lifts like spoto or coan, drugs or not.

I second that vote kek
>>37807474
>>37807471
Just talk as anon then. No one gives a shit about your inability to bulk or your 2pl8 bench attempt. I benched 2pl8 the first time the other day and it was great but I'm still pathetic, weak and inexperienced and NOBODY who contributes anything worthwhile to these threads cares or should care that I did so.

You're just so fucking weak and boring. I'm weak too, literal dogshit tier but I know better than to share my trash lifts. It seems the weaker you are and the more off topic your posting, the more your presence is seen and felt in this general, why is that?

>>37807551
Quality posts my dudes!!
>>37807558
ok
so then. What am I supposed to talk about on "powerlifting general" if I'm not supposed to talk about my lifts? yeah, I am weak. but I'm working on that so that one day I won't be
>>37807637
This isn't just you, this is to the influx of weaklings /plg/ has had of late.
-Stop posting named or as a trip unless you're going to contribute actual meaningful shit that someone would actually want to keep track of ie meet videos, lifting webms
- Stop orbiting Trappy and posting about your/her/xir sexuality/trip drama of any kind
-Stop responding to Sean/troll characters ever under any circumstances PERIOD
- Stop mentioning that you're 140lbs like it's even remotely hard to bulk at such an incredibly light bw if you have even a shred of legitimate desire to get stronger or bigger
Do these things consistently and the general will improve considerably.
>>37807717
This
>>37807717
I can stop responding to sean, I don't orbit trappy in the first place, and I'm working on bulking. Having good success so far with bulking. Have to eat shittons but whatever
But no I'll not remove my trip dude. Let people talk. It's really not a big deal.
>>37807516
He failed a drugs test
So no.
Hey so since not much is going on Im gonna talk long term training strategy and you guys can criticize.
Recently strained my QL pretty bad failing a 260x5 squat on my SS-ish routine. My hips shot up and I couldnt get upright, and fucked myself dropping the bar forward. Today, ten days later, I tried squatting again and even a single at 185 makes it feel funky. This has completely turned me off from constant work in the rpe9-10 range. Once I heal up Im not gonna be compromising form for muh progression. I feel like the strong focus on soley low-bar and in the 3x5 scheme isnt really great for my long term development either.
My plan is for the next few months, or as long as I can reasonably sustain it, is really high frequency, high volume, and a lot of variety. Im using pic related as a general guide, but ultimately Im going to be doing as many (potentially useful) varitions on the main lifts as I can think of, and maybe higher volume periods (with deload weeks if lifts start going down unexpectedly).
>High bar, front Squat, pauses, 1/2 squats from pins
>Deadlift to knees, paused deadlift, hack squats, JEFFERSON DEADLIFT, rack pulls
>Close grip, spoto press, long pause, touch and go, widest grip, incline
And do all this while finally incorporating LISS so I dont take fucking 15 minutes to be ready for my next set (its gotten out of hand).
The idea behind all this is to build a better "base" of General Physical Preparedness™, be more comfortable throughout the whole movement in the main lifts, and really just have fun lifting again.
Thoughts?
(Stats in freedom units: 6'3" 205lb, 260/190/335 for a 3x5 was what I was at when I done snapped my shit)
>>37807764
Fyi I've just added you to my filter.
You are trash. Which is fine! There's nothing wrong with being genetic detritus, many of us are.
What I do have an issue with is your ego. That filled in name field screams "I'm note worthy, remember me!". Being egotistical is barely forgivable in someone like Josh hancott (someone who's lifting is extremely impressive) but in a rank novice it's unbearable. So why do you persist?
>>37807777
Lucky 7s it must be a good plan
>>37807764
>I can stop responding to sean
Good. Keep that up. Having a trip so people can know your shit and have a meaningful conversation about training thread to thread is one thing, having a trip so that meaningless chatter about X is more personally satisfying for you is another. Get a blender and have PB, banana, oats and milk in a shake twice a day on top of meals and bulking will be a lot easier than trying to cram in solids all day.
>>37807767
>stimulant
>ban already up
Let it go. Ilya passed clean for ten years, yet look what happened on retests.
>>37807777
Word of warning - be careful which lifts you select for a program like this. As fun as all the variety can be, some of them can react really badly to being used for heavy singles. Especially if you're not used to performing them.
>>37807789
>implying I care
but in all honesty, I feel like posting with a name 4chan, so I will. If that bothers you, then by all means, filter me! It's all good
>>37807816
What should I be weary of? This upcoming month of bench specialist is gonna suck, I dont wanna snap my shit up again please
>>37807825
Anything with asymmetric loading is something to be wary of, also anything with a particularly extreme stance or grip can be an issue. But it is kind of individual - some people just tolerate certain movements better than others.
I mean, usually you'll figure out when working up if something is gonna be an issue but its something to keep an eye out for, especially when you're working at relatively high percentages every session.

So snatch grip and JEFFERSON DEADLIFT I should be careful with, yeah?
Fair enough, thanks. So my general plan does seem like an OK idea at least?
>>37807898
I personally wouldn't train that way, but I don't see how experimenting with it could do any real damage if you're on the ball. Worst case scenario, you have some fun and get an idea of what does/doesn't work for you.
How muscley does /plg/ like their girls? If you could carry on posting as normal with an image of your type then that would be great.
>Not sly inspo searching
Or, post some grills on the platform who have good form lifting heavy stuff. Pls
180 squat attempt failed, the weight pushed me over too much in the hole and I couldn't get my hips underneath me. More work at that weight range will fix it though, too used to lifting around the 150-160 range.
>>37807717
>stop responding to Sean
I'm a sucker for this, Gotta work on that too
>>37807934
As long as they're not on gear it's fine
>>37808041
well, good luck next time dude, I'm sure you'll get it!
Of course you care. You are an egotist
Now fuck off
Took my trip off to say this
Haven't been posting because the weak trips have been beta orbiters and faggots make me want to not post here
>>37808089
Do you have any vids Isley, I wanna save some if grills doing well on the platform for inspo. unless there is anyone you would recommend looking at.
>>37808109
Yeah but not on my phone.
Just watch the recent 2016 ipf classic world championships. Check out the women between 57 and 72kg
>>37808133
Thanks bubs. I'll watch on the way to work and find my liftfu.
I really doubt mike Tuchscherer ever posted here
>>37805666
;_;
Lads what is a good way to remove anxiety or what can I take before my driving test in UK? Failed my first one because I can't relax at all. Second one is in 2 weeks.
>>37808094
>>37808178
>>37808180
Right. Enough whining. You know how strong trips started out? Weak. The strongest in here shouldn't be complaining about the weak ones, they should be kicking their asses and making sure they're doing it right. All it will become is a circle jerk or a whinge fest.
If that isn't enough reason to support each other and save /plg/ then I don't know what is.
LETS MAKE PLG GREAT AGAIN
>>37808193
Are you going to be lifting the car?
>>37808214
While I agree with you, there's not point trying to convince them.
This general is way too focused on maintaining their idea of 'superior lifting' and anyone who threatens to compromise that idea isn't accepted.
People like Isley and sean belong on reddit where you can vote on posts to hide them. The beauty of this site is that everyone gets a voice and all voices are equal, the fact that half this general wants to get rid of that is pretty hilarious imo. They cant go to a different site though because they'll just get rejected because deep inside (and on the surface), they're just narcissists and came here because no one else would accept them.
Doing TSA intermediate, really enjoying it apart from squats...
My 5x5 sessions are ok (managed to get the last one with an RPE of 9001) but I've failed my last two 4x7 sessions - I got a set of 7 and a set of 6 then had to lower the weight significantly for more volume.
I know I've always been shit at high rep stuff on every program I've been. So next time I run the program should I just lower my input max by a few % or just lower my high rep stuff by a few %, or both?
wat do
>>37808214
Why did you quote me?
I'm sad because marcel was a quality poster not because he was strong
>>37808256
Well quality posting is also needed sugarlump. I will happily act as shit filter during the Britbong day as I feel responsible for poor post quality of late.
Want to make things better.
>>37808244
But powerlifting is about aiming to be strong, it is about aiming to be superior on the platform. Competition is all part of it. I don't mind narcissism as long as it is backed up with enough humility to support others even if they're weak.
>>37806423
Don't worry about it.
>>37808281
>Well quality posting is also needed
Exactly why I was mourning the loss of a good poster sweet pea
We need more high profile people like him who can actually start good discussions. When most anons try and talk lifting they get ignored, caused by the trip drama
>>37808330
You're in a sport where you could become high profile enough to start good quality discussions baby cakes
Trips should be aiming for that. We all should
>>37808303
>with enough humility to support others even if they're weak.
This general would be great if the stronger trips could just do this
I dont squat less than 4 plate because I want too, I'm trying to get stronger and if me not having an IPF tier squat bothers you, then help me fix it
>>37808379
I just wanna say i agree with everything you are sayinf sorry for typin funny kinda drunk
>>37807777
>really high frequency,
If we have the same perception of "really high frequency", please don't jump right into it. Work up to it slowly. Now you've been doing 3x/week (I assume since you said SS-like), so I suggest you do two A workouts and two B workouts per week until you're used to the program before you start slowly increasing frequency. Increase frequency by alternately adding a workout of A or B every 1-3 months, depending on how you feel.
Get good habits regarding prehab/flexibility/mobility.
>hack squat
>jefferson deadlift
Probably not gonna be worth your effort.
>rack pulls
Block pulls are better.
Other deadlift variants are deficits and snatch-grip, which imho are better than hack and jefferson.
Feet up benching is great (e.g. Larsen press).
>>37808379
It has nothing to do with being weak
Its because you have a tripcode && are weak as fuck
Change one of these conditions asap. And then you'll receive our support
>>37808244
>ctrl +f 'Lith'
>15/20 posts are pure fucking shitpost trash
Don't act like this general is anything but WORSE off because of your presence here. It's not even about lifts. You're a Sean enabler, contribute nothing, you don't have any grasp of the culture of the general. Not one poster here would miss your presence if you left or dropped your trip. NOT ONE.
>>37808417
>It has nothing to do with being weak
>&& are weak as fuck
?????????????????????????
>>37808427
Conditional AND
You think it's just because you're weak. It's not.
>>37808436
Isley relax its all good
have some rum with my friend
>>37808440
Go take a 9mm nap
>>37808436
>you're weak
When does one become 'not weak'?
A crowd of normies gather to watch my squat attempt today, so I'm normie strong at least
>>37808417
Isley what is your wilks again?
Fucking nothing? I thought so.
>>37808454
im sleepy lol
I gonna tke a nap but no 9mm part. I wish u good lifts today
>>37808462
if you wanna trip on here you should at least have like 375 wilks
this isnt fucking reddit
>benching at the shitty commercial gym available during summer makes my shoulder a whiny bitch
damn it, shits impossible to get right without a liftoff here and people dont know how to do a liftoff. 4/5 are terrible
>>37808462
We're all normie strong in here Lith. The humility that is expected of the strong trips in order for them to support others is also expected of those at an intermediate level. Otherwise every cunt is a powerlifter. Everyone should support one another and contribute to discussion. I propose that when you are a competing powerlifter, then you can have a trip under the conditions that continue to contribute. Thoughts?
dewds...
>>37808523

Ye, I should've included the link.
Amazing reaction.

Personally, it's a name that lets you filter the weaklings out.
not why people arent encouraging it desu
>>37808593
Ahjt excuse
I can't filter you on mobile
And even if I could I'd have to see collapsed posts which are ugly
Hope you fucking die quite frankly
>>37808346
but I'm not there yet and liked talking to smart strong people until I was, sweetums
I couldn't care less who trips as long as it's not
Weaklifts
Lith
And if Sean kill himself that would be good too
Started doing hepburn again
Don't care that it's a meme, I find it super comfy
>>37808346
Why would any one want to be high profile???
Being famous is ARSE
>>37807777
>hack squats, JEFFERSON DEADLIFT, rack pulls
Only the last one is worth half a fuck.
>>37808619
You still can honey bun. Just keep on topic
>>37808684
Well that's your opinion, eloquently put.
>>37808593
Dude come on you've come full circle now. You'd have to filter yourself out. Just stop
>>37808647
its shit for long term imo, just had me constantly injured
>>37808244
No, the 'beauty' of this site is that when someone is being stupid and annoying you can call them a retarded faggot without getting downvotes. You don't need to trip and you're a dickhead for doing so. You're far from alone, but don't think that justifies it.
>>37808725
What's long term?
last time I did it was only for squat/bench but put 20/10kg on them. I'm not as advanced as you anyway
>>37808725
Training at rpe 9/10 can't be maintained for that long. Everyone will always end up with small injuries here and there.
>>37808762
All my sheiko worksets are RPE10 ;^)
>>37808758
maybe 3 full cycles?
>>37808762
that really irritated me all the niggles and pains, seriously having a proper 'offseason' block is the best thing ive ever done
>>37808783
What % of your 1rm did you start at?
>>37808783
Not enough juniors realise this
Muh get good quick burn out and never be a senior
>>37808770
Doing it right lad :)
>>37808797
What would you say is a normal training cycle including off season then? What would you normally do during off season to maintain strength and mobility?
>>37808792
80%
>>37808797
ive learnt so much over the years i wish i could go back and train smarter and harder
My hamstrings don't work properly lads
Whenever I stretch them they become painful and tight. Every time, have always done this.
I had to do good mornings the other day and no I don't know how I'll deadlift because I can't hinge back without pain and I can't go low enough because my hamstrings are so tight
Is this normal?
>>37808725
Seconding this, lucked out at getting good gains and not getting rekt
just got powerlift 2.0 after squatting barefoot for about 4 years
will it actually help me put kgs on my squat or are shoes mainly there for ankle mobility?
>>37808859
Let me see your flat feet baby
>>37808809
Ok
My plan was just to ride the gains while they lasted and get something new when they run out, nothing long term anyway.
>>37808859
obv helps ankle mobility but you have to be pretty stiff to benefit from that, it changes the mechanics of the squat a little. some benefit, some don't (thinks its a 60/40 split heel/flat in ipf)
>currently in "off season"
>ramped up bench frequency
>added more squat volume
>added more assistance
>everything else like in season
:^)
>>37808890
i squat highbar with a narrow stance so i guess squatting with a heeled show is prefered anyway?
>>37808900
most likely, yeah. but don't dismiss flats outright if heels really don't work even after a couple of sessions
Anybody else ever loose their libdo when falling in love?
Went from jacking off twice a day to not not wanting to do it at all
Don't even think I got morning wood. Actually perhaps it's all the volume I'm doing...
>set up for benching at other squat rack
>realize floor is literally fucking ice
god fucking damn no leg drive benching is awful
@37808969
I know that feeling all too well
But I didn't get any (yous) so I'm not giving you any
>>37808939
Perhaps you could address this to QTDDTOT.
And by perhaps I mean that you should.
>>37808896
>tfwiktf
>>37808994
It's not really a question, just trying to start convserstiom
Face it, plg is DEAD with these shit posts sparking conversation
>>37808896
So how long is the season where you pretend it is off you cheeky monkey?
>>37808896
>tfw offseason 20 wk sheiko block
>>37809012
Then maybe you need to shitpost in /soc/ instead
>>37808806
The same lifts just lighter and with lower RPEs
>>37809031
had meet 20th of may or so, next meet is in november
guess im off season this cycle and in season next cycle? somehow think my current off season will become my in season tho
>>37809044
Yeah no
This is how plg has always been, newfag
>>37809052
>>37809062
So you would do one cycle lighter then. Would it be your usual routine at lower percentages or would you choose a different one?
>>37809071
listen to isley insted i dont know what the fuck im doing i just lift and make gains
>>37809069
You have no idea who you're talking to. So please keep you 'newfag' comments to yourself. /Plg/ is currently focusing on returning to purpose rather than talking about your penis issues. This is not it penis life general.
There's no way you can get stronger below RPE10
I've always worked at RPE10 and the worst things that ever happened to me is a bulging disc
But none the less if you work at below RPE10 you have ZERO excuses for being weak
Because you're NOT trying hard enough
