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...

Upside to this approach is everything was taken with extreme confidence and I was really looking...
That makes more sense now.

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...
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...
@Hyde I thought you had suggestions on taking a heavy single during deload rather than just going through the standard Wendler RX but I can't figure out who's thread we had that discussion in...
you're gonna be damn near bodybuilder at 198.
and yeah reminds me of college when I was at like the 2 year point or so when I'm way to deep to quit but there is zero light at the end of the...
Years ago, I read from Dante Trudel that ground flaxseed twice per day in your shakes or oats etc would help fix lipid profile for an AAS user. I tried it, and that lasted about 3 weeks of...
WHEN I make 198!
Lol I am genuinely confident I can make that part happen. I have the knowledge and the drive. It’s getting down while producing a performance to make it worthwhile that will be...
yeah its this part here. if I'm doing an EMOTM down and back then I am digging in and sprinting and thinking back to football practice, pushing 3, 4 or more plates for these 12 second bursts with...
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...
same. like small amounts of it seem feasible to me, but the size of this project is so far beyond anything I have ever done. its inspirational but daunting. I'm like trying to stack up some trees...
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!
Well let me tell you my timing is so perfect it’s hard to match. Let’s decide to build a house when prices on everything are running to all time high 🤣
So called this morning and they were able to get me 8 yards out this morning. So very glad to have this poured and sealed up now. I did install more uprights just for a little more anchor...
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...
Il try to do a little more cooking and be creative, it's about the only interesting thing going here.
When I get done with vacation I'm gonna try to get really creative with my cooking on a...
