Good article on nutrition. Especially for newbies barbellmedicine.com/584-2/

did smolov jr for squats for fun and no reason

went from 180kg to 200kg 1rm wew

since there´s no way I ´m keeping these gains, what would be the best step to take now? I was thinking of running c6w again but with like 185 as my entered max. Does this seem ok? sorry i'm a brainlet

dont be a pussy. use 190 atleast

I bet I'd fail the second week lmao

If you believe that then you will

in a twist, it turns out the most gde thing about alex was his mentality

not alex

Its c6w no its not ok

when did /cbt/ invade and start posting nonstop about bodyfat percentage, i doubt most of the regular posters in here are above 20% lmao not a pressing issue

you mean c6w is shit in general or it's not a good idea to do what I planned to do

t.retard

Literally every trip except Alex is fat af

what is wrong with c6w for an intermediate lifter?

you sell fucking carpets for a living

Hows your training going atm

Im an area manager, ive got 100 shops that sell the carpets my company makes, i manage the accounts, i choose where i go and what hours i work, i did 4 hours today, finalised something with a client that made me £750, i was in the meeting for 15 mins

I signed up for a meet with MA in November and also ditched the university gym for a local pl gym since I have money from my internship
probably going to max out next week and get a block in before the next meet

how is your training going big guy

Best its been for a while, knee and elbow issues pretty much gone and almost pushing past prs

IM CONSTIPATED REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

how do i phase in hook grip without wanting to fucking die

You don't. You do mixed grip, unless you compete in weightlifting in which case you don't ask this question here.

By never doing it in the first place.

Name a single valid reason for using hook grip first.

i'm responding to the needs of the company, i joined at a time of pretty drastic change, i like your lifting advice so please keep it to lifting advice rather than baseless conjecture on careers : )

avoiding imbalance without having to do sets with the non preferred orientation

Any imbalances you create pulling mixed grip are so insignificant any other pulling you do will fix them. You're far more likely to have much greater, longer lasting, and more difficult to fix imbalances from playing something like baseball or tennis.

>imbalance
Meme with no basis

bench press is the best gauge of RAW PHYSICAL STRENGTH. you only downplay this because you're a pudgy, weak little shit of a manlet with an equally embarrassing bench press.

nobody gives a shit that you can bounce your morbidly obese gut off of your legs for your little bullshit wide stance "squat". nobody cares about your 5 inch ROM sumo "deadlift".

bench. press. is. king.

Umm sweatie, sorry to say, but that's rear delt flys

I find this hard to believe. I personally know 2 mixed grip pullers who developed visible imbalances from it

>without having to do sets with the non preferred orientation
There is no excuse for having grip problems during work sets, regardless of what underhand you use. The way to fix insufficient grip strength is so obvious and simple I won't even point it out, to save you the embarrassment.

grow up ManChild

Rotating the other way is not a problem because of grip. It sucks because of developed motor patterns and imbalances which make it hard to set up correctly using the non prefered mixed grip

it's stronger than my mixed grip

Your preferred grip is literally genetic like lacing your fingers or crossing your arms. It naturally feels comfortable one way and not the other.

what if it feels equally uncomfortable both ways?

>almost everyone has a dominant hand
True
> It naturally feels comfortable one way and not the other.
False

That makes sense as well. However my point still stands. The problems caused by doing mixed grip the other way are not grip problems as claims

GDEism

unironically try harder

I see, so they're man the fuck up and git gud problems

Does explosive training have a place in PL training? How should it be incorporated/programmed? I'm curious about things like:
>Explosive warmups (med ball slams, jumps)
>Jumps to boxes, broad jumps
>Compensatory acceleration training

Jumps and throws make great warmups if you want to preserve some athleticism.

All of your reps should be explossive

>Preserve
>Implying I have athleticism

I know. I'm asking if there is a benefit in training the quality directly.

>Training

You DO have hobbies other than powerlifting, right user?

Unless your pulling sumo no reason to hook grip.

If you don't have explosiveness and athleticism, then yes, it is a benefit to train it.

It's mind-blowing how many wannabe powerlifters stall at beginner level numbers, and then you find out that they can't do basic things like box jumps, bodyweight dips and chin-ups, or hanging leg raises.

fuck it's so hot

Fuck I'm so hot

I've hit a plateau at 92-93kg on my cut. I'm 180cm, still feel fat AF.

Aiming for 2000 calories, do I REALLY have to reduce it further than this? I feel trash already.

Been cutting 2 months

Ive decided to get a massive juicy back. currently cant even do 3 strict pull ups lol

how to incorporate stone carries into programming? after DLs maybe?

>Aiming for 2000 calories, do I REALLY have to reduce it further than this?

time for a maintenance period

Idk wtf that is thanks

it means you stop dieting for a little bit

generally a good idea every few months

What's the best way to learn to do your own programming?
And fuck you don't say "read SS"

no I hate my body soooo much

then you should not have gotten this fat in the first place

you didn't gain it overnight and you won't lose it overnight

gain weight slowly (like 1% bw per month) on your bulks and cut aggressively for short durations, stay reasonably lean year round

I've been gaining for 4 years constantly I didn't like bulk hard or whatever

I hate this so much

gotta cut periodically man

if you gain like 2lbs a month, you can bulk for the vast majority of the year and do a couple quick minicuts and end up at about the same bf%

I'm not a machine I can't do things like that.
Life just goes by my man and next thing I know I've got a fat ass

JTS youtube or books, RTS programming guide shit. general books about exercise science (cba to name any off the top of my head)

then you'll be a fat guy who lifts weights i guess lol

no pls
