Can you build on that a bit to give me more perspective? I'm not sure how else to measure progress right now beyond hitting my prescribed sets lol. Well, other than maybe the mirror, waistline...
First off, everyone knows pizza is better the next day.
I was driving (LOL) when I replied to Kleen last night so I couldn't get into it but I was thinking about it a LOT. especially this part...
Not sure if you have 5/3/1 Forever or not but his leader/anchor approach gives some insight on joker sets. During a leader you would do 5s Pro and heavy supplemental work (BBB for example)…...
No, don’t up TMs - just don’t do Jokers weekly. People want so badly to believe that you have to do more to improve progress, but that’s not always the case.
It’s like pizza. Pizza is awesome...
Those bagels look fire 🔥! My wife has been on the sourdough kick for a year maybe more so lots of sourdough loafs here as well. Also sourdough pancakes, my personal favorite!!
Lol honestly I'm a bit torn. Still hitting Rx programming without issue. So do I up TM again after this cycle or chill?
Squats are progressing smooth and linear despite already upping tm a bit...
Yeah, you tend to have that high strength endurance so you can lift a lot closer to your 1Rm for reps than the average lifter. So it is likely a little skewed.
I know, every time I keep seeing...
I may never successfully cut again. My wife has progressed from making English muffins, to sourdough (amazing) to this supply of bagels she just texted me.
I know, thats why I kept them lighter and didn't push it. I wasn't supposed to take a cookie from the jar, but I was at least polite enough to put the lid back on when I was done. Unfortunately I...

Oddly enough, felt like I did more than that while I was there...
by monday we will have planned out the rest of your life, refinanced your mortage, sent the kids off to college and re-organized your wardrobe for you as well.
You know, that didn't really even dawn on me. So perhaps.
OK, this is definitely reasonable. I wasn't on board with signing up for 5x10 after DLs, but 1-2 sets with light-moderate weights makes...
I’ve had really good strength progress the last year just from 2 hard sets of RDLs after my heavy deadlift work. Like 8-14 reps. But these are quite a bit of work for me, and have been 375-445lbs...
thats been my mentality. I need to get caught up on the new 531 book if Hyde sends it to me but my earlier understanding from Wendler was "just do some stuff". I can't remember his quote but I...
I think it comes down to what or why you are doing it. The idea behind them from my understanding is to add volume for hypertrophy at a weight were you get plenty of practice and start to learn to...
And in Seg’s case, he doesn’t even need to do 5x10 RDLs. We’re talking about a set of 10 prior with the empty barbell as a warmup, then maybe a set or two after if he feels good for the work. With...
I am not sure if you remember, but that is the machine i kept singing the praises of for doing a good morning like movement that i felt really brought the glute work and lower back work during my...

That is where I am now, I think I am probably good to make 20lb jumps until 225, as long as things keep responding the way they are. After that it might slow down a little, or overall volume will...
