gphagan1 replied to the thread DaPack..Fighting Age One Day at a Time.I remember back in the mid 80s and into the 90s it got pretty popular to do 21s (7,7,7) as a finisher. Arnold I think was the first that talked about them in his book The New Encyclopedia of... -
Hyde replied to the thread Segansational's Motivation Log.And it is very good you’re deloading, because it is normal to be kind of messed up the week after a meet. Extra emphasis on mobility and warmups should be made, even with low weights. Something... -
Hyde replied to the thread Segansational's Motivation Log.Agree with Slim & Kleen. Both of their ideas are great. You need to practice what you want to be good at. If you have any aspirations at 700, don’t forsake the big lifts - you don’t have to lift...

Are you feeling really beat up? I wouldn't be pushing hard the week after a meet. As far as the RP block, that just depends on if you want to do another meet any time soon. I think if you are not...

You could do a less demanding 5/3/1 template. 5s Pro + FSL as supplemental would be good. If you haven’t you should check out his weekly YouTube Q/A, it’s really good.

MrKleen73 replied to the thread GP’s Old Man With A Plan Log.I used to be pretty regular with the flu vaccines, but I have not had one in probably 5 years. I did get the flu last year, but the whole house ended up getting it and me after the rest of the... -
I used to get flu vaccines until I realized I reacted particularly poorly - as a mechanic I’d have to take a full day off work to recover usually. They’d basically make me sick for a day or two...

He is trying to make his training PRIME in any way he can!

Sounds like a plan. Last heavy at 17 and around 27 days will take one in the lower 400s.

MrKleen73 replied to the thread KLEEN LIVING - A log about Life, Training, and Nutrition..What sucks is although I have been focusing on my shoulder, my knee has been the real PITA lately. It is really limiting leg training, I have to really work to even get to my work sets, and have...

Good to hear you are on the mend!

I'm with you across the board there. I do think that in addition to the physical and mental health benefits at the gym, we also gain some added level of immune protection being exposed to so many...

dropping a few lbs are probably going to make your body feel better and healthier and you'll trade heavier aches and pains for gym aches and pains lol. the cycle is beautiful. when I was 240 I was...

What he is doing right now is pretty damn close, but he is keeping enough in the tank for solid training. I will post up some pics this weekend. I have to takesome for the contest. I still have a...

This is where powerlifting is more mentally taxing to me, than other forms of barbell sports. I mean I'm here to embrace the suck, but YES! you know you have a job to do and the expectation is...

Also, I think it’s good to have TMs where they are for now, but if you test and say bench 315, reset the TM down to that at least - don’t keep on with the inflated value. If not lower, like...

Going over 8 reps on a squat AMRAP is mildly terrifying. Not because of the weight - because you know you CAN do it, and the expectation is you NEED to if you want to get better. So it’s going to...
