No, I'd argue they're not even good for quad hypertrophy which is what they target. Do hip thrusts and romanian DLs.

Yes

Wrong. I've been doing highbar ATG for 2 years now and RDLs and every time I do these I get sore glutes for 3 days. Same goes for walking lunges and weighted step ups.

squats are basically all 99% of the dyels on this board need for lowerbody

soreness has nothing to do with hypertrophy

just skwat heavy and often

i don't find them useful. certainly not with DBs because your grip will run out before your glutes get a proper stimulus.

a lot of people find them useful as an accessory, and if you are one of them then great. personally nothing hits my glutes harder than heavy squats and deficit deadlifts, but i am one person.

Even more for quads, at least for me during set. My quads get destroyed everytime. Love doing these in regular split stance without bench with barbell on back.

>soreness has nothing to do with hypertrophy
nobody thinks this anymore. soreness is indicative of muscle damage and is really one of the key things that are used to gauge the effectiveness of a certain lift.

if you get pumped from an exercise and if you get sore from an exercise in the target muscles, chances are you have applied an appropriate stimulus and that exercise is good for you. there's no 1:1 correlation here, but you can be fairly certain.

>soreness has nothing to do with hypertrophy
Obviously my ass wasn't doing much if I got destroyed by these. Also I noticed glute gains.

those are stationary lunges. completely different

agreed. been lifting for 10 years. too many dyels that read too much these days.

no, soreness isn't the best indicator, progress is. however, soreness still gets a bronze metal.

also, fuck these jason blaha types that say you dont "need to feel the target muscle working"

>dont need to feel the target muscle working
thats a fact. I dont even know who jason blaha is

t. fat powerlifter

they're top tier for quads hypertrophy. my ass got bigger and shapier after I started doing them too but there should be a more suited lift for glutes

I am a powerlifter. Im not fat tho (although some of you twinks definition of fat is the same as /fa/ lmao)

post body twink

guaranteed a twink body type looks way more aesthetic than your bloat lump ass

no you look like a child. post body

stay coping, meanwhile I'd rather be an ottermode with 9/10 face lmao

youre the one coping child body faggot. post face and body so I can laugh

if you think powerlifter body looks better than ottermode, you're a deluded retard. there's no room for arguement. keep thinking that big numbers you lift somehow correlate with the general quality of your life

theres no such thing as "powerlifter body" you can be 10% bf and compete in powerlifting. but yes I think having mass looks better than looking like a child

also how you look has equally little correlation to quality of life unless you have a hideous birth defect, which being otter mode isnt going to fix lol

also you type like like a pajeet lmao

I'm not a pajeet although english isn't my first language
>how you look has equally little correlation to quality of life
completely wrong, looking good makes your life easier. of course you need to have a handsome face to start off. also the way you use a world "child" in every post to describe ottermode/twink tells me you have body dysmorphia

I think a split squat has carryover effects similar to the effects gripwork has on deadlift and pullups. If you can do a weighted dead hang for 1 minute, pullups get way easier.

Usually when I'm feeling weak at the bottom of a squat I realize I've been neglecting split squats.

>looking good makes your life easier
this is incel bullshit. it has very little effect unless you fall at one extreme or the other. if you look like a burn victim your life will be worse. theres no difference between a slightly below or above average looking person

that's what I mean, have to be at least 8/10

its not going to make a difference. as long as youre not disables you have it pretty much the same as any ottermode 8/10 fag. you just think the grass is greener on the other side for good looking people

test

post body fat stuff
These are amazing. but getting good form on them requires your balance to not be shit (good core). they will destroy you the first few weeks be prepared to go super light

If you do
>Bulgarian Split Squats
>Romanian Deadlifts
>Seated or Standing Calf Raises
your leg day is done, if you are male. You can do an Upper/Lower split like ULxULUx.

If you're female, you can take more work (like add in Hip Thrusts, Stepups, Cable Kickbacks) or have two separate leg days so that you're doing an Upper/Lower split like LUxLULx.

>you just think the grass is greener on the other side
I don't think, I know. I'm an ottermode 9/10 fag. you don't know the feeling of starting a new job, learning how a lot of guys lust after a few good looking bitches there, and then have said bitches approach me without me initiating any form of contact towards them. one of them straight up asked me out after a week, other one told me how she likes my vascularity and how it literally makes her horny lmao, others just gave up after seeing no initiative from me

if you were 9/10 yoiu would have posted your face. and when you said quality of life you actually meant girls lmao. pathetic

Complete and utter faggot.

why would I post my face here? I'm not retarded
of course qol doesn't equal girls, it's just one of the many aspects of it

cope, aesthetic > strength any day
