    Those are some big numbers. If those are your short term goals, what are your long term goals?

    Wallballs are horrible! But I feel like I really accomplished something AFTER doing them.

    DaPack..Fighting Age One Day at a Time

    I know some of the formulas in the 531 calculator are a little funky. With 6 sets of bench, there is usually a 20-30 pound increase each set, but sometimes it jumps 50-60 pounds in between sets 3 and 4. And conversely, deload sets are ridiculously low. If I set my max bench as 340, the deload...

    Hairygrandpas log, fat- and older people welcome!- diet, training, cycles, healing

    I lifted, swam, and ran 5 days a week when I was his age. I added ZERO muscle mass. I didn't have the genes or a coach or any understanding of nutrition. I think your son stands a pretty good chance to be successful since he seems to have all 3 of those things.

    Deadlifts physique vs Squat physique

    There's some good info in this thread, and some really bad info in this thread. Unless a person is hindered by an injury, squats and deads are a must for body building. I lifted for 10 years before I started doing deads, and I was plateaued for the last two years of that. Then I added deads...

    Can someone critique my plan?

    I'd suggest 4 days a week: 2 days on, 1 day off, 2 days on, 2 days off. There is a reason 80% of all the workouts I've seen are 4-day splits. I'd also suggest fewer auxiliary movements and more bench, squats, and deads.

    Rowing Machine

    I've been wanting to add a rowing machine to my list of workout activities...but I don't want to spend a ton of money. I've been on Amazon, and there are a lot of rowing machines for under $200, but when I read the reviews, it seems a lot of people claim they break after a short period of time...

    In my experience, most college students are Hillary supporters. Many were Bernie supporters, but when he backed out, they all went toward Hillary.

    A week-long seminar in Chicago where I spent 10 hours a day sitting motionless listening to lectures, then 3 hours drinking in the evening with co-workers, then 6 hours attempting to sleep in a bed that was softer than cotton candy floating on a lake in zero gravity (opposite of my rock hard...
