    Segansational's Motivation Log

    Progressive Range of Motion (PROM) is how George Leeman pulled into the 800s, and many guys have used his program for it successfully. I think Terry Todd (RIP) is one of the earlier guys to popularize it. Andrew Hause pulled 900 with it in a full meet where he already had set an all-time squat...

    Slicin' and Dicin'

    270x5 is saying you should be over 300. Yeah a lot of guys who are strong enough to do 405 inclines are also tight enough that they won’t be touching. Usually either shoulders or pecs themselves will get painful if so - but obviously it’s not holding them back any in development! Never seen...

    I definitely believe in warming up the mixed grip for the reasons you presented. It’s only hook grip that I meant you can just jump into top intensity, and even then only if very experienced/pulling heavy often (like most weeks).

    You need to find a way to get out of this fence business and exclusively focus on consuming these delicious farm breakfasts instead 😭

    I’m just not that strong (yet)!

    Sorry to hear everyone got sick again, but this was a great training session at least 💪

    Mega-Dosing Creatine -Anyone taking or have used 10g or more of creatine a day?

    It definitely can elevate your creatinine levels on a basic CMP blood draw, which will skew your eGFR to look lower than it really is on that. So if you’re worried about that coming back high, dropping creatine mono 4-7 days prior will give you the level without artificial influence from your...

    Hyde’s Strength Odyssey

    The hacks were definitely harder! Part of my brain is always worried that my quads are going to blow off of my knees at the bottom on this hack it feels so heavy, but I just keep going and everything comes out fine in the end 😅

    When to start GH?

    Yes, there is a terrible fall off the last few years before death usually from what I’ve seen. Saw it in my dad. It is hard & not enviable to me; I think many people would rather have a cardiovascular event a bit sooner than stop TRT and spend more years in that highly limited state.

    When to start GH?

    Why would you not be able to pop a little insulin syringe in your thigh once every couple weeks when you’re 80? I mean I’d say you do it until you’re ready to die; the point of the therapy is to improve healthspan, not necessarily max out lifespan with poorer quality of life.

    Rockslide’s Settling In and Making Progress Log

    Yeah I’d say just progress deads modestly as you can for now as an accessory moreso (so to speak), then as you gain greater technical proficiency & condition to them eventually you could rotate them to the front as a primary focus while using the Trapbar more as an accessory.

    Hyde’s Strength Odyssey

    I think half an inch or so since 250s, but really not much at all for dropping 30lbs - which I think has been key to keeping my bench strength nearly static over the descent. Keeping the muscle was key. I can still wear 2XL shirts decently, especially the more fitted ones, because my arms and...

    I’d say you’re looking pretty good man, especially from the bodyfat perspective. Nobody knows how muscular you have been when they see you; they only see what’s in front of them. So if you’re lean enough to feel good and your gf is gonna get horny for you at Disney then pack your tadalafil and...

    HAVEN’T WEIGHT TRAINED IN 3 YEARS-LOOKING FOR ADVICE TO RESTART

    Recovering from surgery is hard & daunting, but it’s important to view it as a new beginning, not an ending! All my best lifting has been done after my elbow surgeries and extensive back rehabs. You’ve got this 💪

    Building Back Up

    The diet is working! Keep doing what you’re doing man. They are a solid option for hypertrophy to create a novel stimulus to cycle through for tried and true compounds, but you do want to be mindful of their limitations. You have to be responsible to try to align your body into decent...

    When to start GH?

    Yes that’s a decent PCT protocol. Make sure you give the testosterone a couple weeks to clear out before starting the Nolva (if you used enanthate or cypionate; propionate you only need to wait 4-5 days probably). I’m just surprised to hear that you are bodybuilding without taking TRT also.

    Hyde’s Strength Odyssey

    I would not recommend using a grip besides DOH for your deadlifts until it becomes a problem. I do not anticipate you will need to consider it this meet prep, and like you said it will strengthen your forearms & keep you safer. Both arms over also helps you engage the lats easier for a stronger...

    Rockslide’s Settling In and Making Progress Log

    The Trapbar IS a good tool for total body development & strength, as it hits a lot and is fairly sparing to the back. It has its uses. But there’s a reason people like Louie Simmons and Mark Rippetoe have told stories about literally throwing them in the trash - they do not have good transfer...

    HAVEN’T WEIGHT TRAINED IN 3 YEARS-LOOKING FOR ADVICE TO RESTART

    Sorry to hear this! Glad the surgery went okay (it sounds like). It’s okay to be upset when bad things happen; they did and it sucks. BUT it’s important you realize that spilt milk is just that, so the only thing you can do to make things better is get to cleaning up the mess best you can. My...
