    A prowler is like 90-100lbs empty; their sled was just a piece of thick sheetmetal. Empty prowler IS a heavy sled compared to how they used it for recovery and long drags.

    Yeah I agree with all that. Between Jim's first book and the 531 Forever book Hyde sent me, I go back and forth with understanding some of Jim's thoughts. For instance as he gets into the "7th...

    This was my thinking as well, what Hyde said. I would just start cycle 6 as prescribed, because you haven’t hit any road blocks. I understand what you were saying when you were trying to adjust...

    I’m confused. In 5/3/1 you add 5lbs to your TMs for upper every successful cycle and 10 to lower. It has absolutely nothing to do with calculated 1RMs or rep maxes. Just 5/10lb progressions per...

    That makes more sense now. Agree on the last block 410 300 335 180 Then from there if you have to cut back bench and OHP then ramp back up. Definitely making huge progress man!

    so this would be more like week 20-24 (I just finished week 3 of cycle 5, each cycle is 4 weeks... 3 training + 1 deload). if I go on into cycle 6 (month 6) and am unable to hit my...

    when I was 17-18 I carried around these fliers for property in eastern WA. you could get 20 acres with an A Frame cabin for $20k. those go for $500k-1m now. when I was 17-18 I wanted one so bad...

    This is no doubt, I wish I would have put up a building here 10-15 years ago. Like always though hind sight is 20-20.

    Or maybe I just give Cycle 6 the ol' college try and wait to see if I make it or not. then adjust if I hit a brickwall.

    My Cycle 1 1RM numbers were Dead 425 Bench 295 Squat 315 OHP 185 those were legit numbers not guess or calculators. As I get into week 6 it projects: Dead 480 Bench 350 (LOL) Squat 394 (not yet)...

    I think those numbers would each be 4x here. I had an electrician quote me $8-10k to put power in my shed which is like 75ft from my house, but only if I did ALL of the trenching so all he had to...

    Hard to put a real number to it but I’d say in the end yes. Just in the dirt work that easily would have been 4-8 grand, plumbing 1500-2000, form work 1500-2000, pour the actual finished slab...

    long story short I was thinking a nice clean 275lb bench comp style for a single made a lot more sense than going for a TM single since that would technically be a PR and seems like way...

    Louie used to recommend the Westside guys he could get to do it pull the sled in different ways almost daily - as an easy warmup, or as conditioning work right after training, or on off days to...

    Oh for sure man I have been drawing out and planning in my head for this at least a year now. If you can build it yourself definitely cost savings for sure!

    I believe the thought here is that sleds are typically great for recovery because its almost entirely concentric. less damage, more blood flow, low impact. My preference is to hit them after...
