I just did the math: those squats were 15,000lbs of volume at/over 319lbs bar weight. And getting 12 on those hacks was BRUTAL too; if I lose any muscle leaning out it won’t be for lack of...
I couldn't mutliquote everything over the weekend on the app so had a hard time getting actual responses in, but when I was religiously hitting that low weight 60% volume I had a hard time making...
Makes sense. BBB on squats = great effort, solid stimulus. BBB on bench has been too low. I've had to mix it up with pauses, CGBP, widegrip etc. this will be a good experimental weight to play with.
The thing that both percentages and RPE are trying to do is get weights in your hands that will lead to sufficient stimulus and desired training effect. That’s it.
This is why Jim has talked...
by and large this is how I feel right now too, unless I'm having a particularly spicy day and can "feel" there is more there for the taking. But sticking to the programming is yielding such a...
thats crazy, we have one too called Leavenworth. (Bavarian though) We used to go there a few times a year cause every season was different and super fun. Actually, I think thats where I proposed:
A couple of great workouts there…. I agree with Kleen on your bench day. Those sets of 25 reps wide bench after that 309 bench definitely look nasty…..volume.💪
And that 319x8x5 after those heavy...
Thanks! Just trying to keep my base built up best I can while I wait to step on the gas again. I have bloodwork next Friday; praying for decent lipids so I can I start blasting in November. I...
OMG I feel like a heroin addict getting his first hit after 12 years. Feels amazing. Spent an hour on them today and blew out some blisters [emoji23][emoji23]
Diet starts "tomorrow" cause wife is...
I'm now officially insulted. Your top sets look like my 50% warm-up weights in terms of speed and power. I'm not sure how these could possibly be your legit 1RM, you are underselling yourself by a...
All 3 look good, definitely had more in you on squat and deadlift for sure, bench maybe 205-210. Solid work brother! Awesome to see this come together!
Yeah, I mean historically I also know I've been capable of much more, including close to 300# DL? I can't recall specifics, but it's in this log. But that was a different time. Similarly, squat...
