My boy just texted me motivation for my squat session tonight. He just cleared 425 clean, which I think is a new PR for him. Awesome video, I tried to screen cap as close to bottom position as I... -
gphagan1 replied to the thread Hyde’s Strength Odyssey.For real, 40 reps at 265+ is a lot of bench tonnage.💪

Holy bench o mania!

for sure. if I'm doing massive volume, hypertrophy work, and conditioning on a cut, all the sudden doing triples or even 5s on a PL schedule is a bit easier and if I'm doing a ton of PL, then all...

That’s what it is - shiny object syndrome. We’ve all experienced it, but man “shock the muscles” was just the worst justification for it that sent so many the wrong way!
-
Yeah, I never really changed workouts intentionally to shock muscles. I just had ADHD and any shiny new program that looked like it would work was done. However, the meat and potatoes of what I...

Are you curious if it is veiny? Obviously you started it!

My bad I thought we were talking about tricep work in here
-
Get on your knees, or sit on your butt, that is what i do when the cables aren't adjustable enough for me.
-
can you post a pic of your new toy? sometimes I step away from the machine a bit to keep it from rubbing against my head/neck/hat. on a lat pull down machine maybe there is a way to sit on the...

I thought you were going to say only 5 you were unhappy with! Sounds like you have no idea what you want/need. Jump in place. Look where your feet land naturally. That’s a reasonably strong width...

I used to use the term "CrossFit induced A.D.D." a lot since the whole methodology required doing something different every day. I think the double edged sword was that it kept people coming for...

gphagan1 replied to the thread Anabolic memes.Very well said….many people have been misled by that.
-
The muscle shock myth is such a bastardization of the stimulus of novelty. Doing more work (progressive overload) has always worked. And when you can’t do more total work, THEN novelty is required.
-
every time I read it, it hits home a little harder lol. I mean look at me 7 months into 531 as a 25 yr gym rat all the sudden hitting PRs across the board 😂
-
This has so much truth to it for many people, including myself.

trying to figure out how/what I feel today after yesterdays bench session. last week I felt it in the forward delts pretty good for a few days after that big spotto push. yesterday I was really...

Nice PR!! Hard to believe same dogs lol

Haven’t played with the overhead extensions on this machine in a little to tall for the pulley setup. But the rope pull downs have been fire especially when at the bottom flaring out and really...
-
its not a bad idea, typically if I do go get sports work done I save it to focus on my feet when making big cardio pushes. thats a life saver when the dogs are barking! yeah my buddy likes it...

See if you can find an ART guy for those elbows, ART works really well for that. Even if not, getting some sort of soft tissue / myofascial release will help. Even if you have to do it yourself...

One cool thing about voting today, I got in a little over a mile and a half of walking on the way there and back. Between that, and my walk at lunch, I should end up depleting my legs even more... -

I am glad you mailed yours, I maled mine too, by being a male voting in person. ;) -
There’s a lot to unpack on the subject of the anabolic additions but I’ll try to be concise. TRT is test replacement that gets you in a physiological optimal range. Whether optimal is defined by...
