Yeah, he said the set he ordered were from .5 kg (1.1 lbs) and goes up to 50 kg (110.23 lbs). Those micro plates will come in handy for me when my OHP numbers start tightening up on 5/3/1 and I...
Another great session there man! Those calibrated plates will be a nice addition, I see some of the videos of people weighing cheap plates and it’s crazy some of them how much they vary in...
Drawback here is, whatever you lift the second day will be with muscles only 24 hours into recovery. So it’s not like you can get an effective second protein synthesis/recovery cycle in; you will...
Next week will be ugly. as of right now I'm leaning towards:
Monday = Bench/Squat
Tuesday = OHP/Deadlift
Weds-Fri = Travel
When I get back, I'll maintain my current nutrition but add fruit mid...
Boy I was NOT feeling it today, I wasn't going to try to rush a lunch session. I could have been talked into skipping I think, but I knew I"d end up going after work, on my way to pick up my boy...

Thanks, that was my thought too!
Thanks you Sir!
Great news, I had to work through lunch but don't have anything else going, and already met my hours. So I get to head home an hour early today...
Thank you!! That’s all great info and I saved that video!!

I died laughing at the last statement! [emoji1787]
I definitely think the tight muscles contribute at least to...
I'm also 5'10" (some days they get me at 5'9" when I do my check-in, so I think I'm probably like 5'9" and some change and not truly 5'10"), so I really need to just be bigger all around.
Yes, probably easier to be an Elite 181 if you could carry 16lbs more muscle.
There’s always a sweetspot for a frame in that regard. Statistically, at 5’10” I am optimized to total Elite in 242...
No that’s raw. I mean, modern raw, not classic with wraps.
Wrapped Elite is actually usually only 22-33lbs more expected to get out of them, so realistically it’s technically easier for more...
Yeah, I'd either have to lose a fair amount of muscle or be dick-skin lean and add a water cut to even hope to get into 165 again.
And not sure if those numbers contemplate using knee wraps or...
I pulled 628 in comp when I also squat 518 for a PR. I weighed something like 238.
I pulled 635 this February when I squat 650, weighing mid 250s.
Squat & bench are much more about both size and...
solid numbers my dude. I'd be surprised if you did a meet prep though and didn't blow through that 275 if you are hitting 275 already at incline. my best pull is still only 485 which was at the...
