The only good date format is (YY)YY-MM-DD. This is a fact, you cannot deny it.

Yes, it is a proven program.

What about the new Strength Life by Tate?

Yeah but aren't you supposed to add more leg work on your own? besides the once a week jm squats

I don't know. Read the literature.

Dave Tate is vetted.

back tweak user here, my back tweak was feeling better yesterday so I did rows again today
they felt fine and I think my problem from last week was that I let my back angle drop too low during later sets
k peace out bye

I don’t suppose anyone has SSB’s version instead of Alex’s, do they? I remember they were different, but not the details, just some insane answers to WAWTT?

>yoyo dieting
But that would require dieting in the first place.

I have mentally cut at 10 RPE, can't do any more. Now it's time to recover by eating a tub of ice cream.

Do 1000 good morning every day t. giant brain

He never really wrote down any specifics other than benching 4x, alternating spotos and slingshot with cgbp, and starting low with lots of reps and just adding weight weekly.

Can someone explain to me why you need rest days? So far ive been doing a 4 day split and then starting it over immediately. My thinking is that im resting legs for instance when doing the 3 other workouts and then im back on legs. Is it my CNS that needs to rest?

Glycogen

To recover and grow. This becomes important when you're not lifting babyweights. (Only making CNS adaptations)

>Do 1000 good mornings
>Morning is still bad

You have a girl that loves you and you've come to terms with your balding, what more could you want from life?

Would i be good just taking a day off after my routine before starting it again. 1 rest day after 4 days?

>my routine
Do what you want. When you get strong, do a program written by someone smarter than you.

>WAWTT
Light cardio, sled for 20 min.

>WAWDT
Gin and tonic.

>AWHST
Got a fat sloppy blow job, picked her face to finish, then she wanted to cuddle for hours. Women are fun.

Fucked. Fucking phoneposter

Im moving into a block of flats with its own shitty gym. should I ask if I can put my rack/power bar/plates etc in there and ban the normies from touching my shit. lol

what a post to end the thread

> linking to an old thread to try to get attention for your shitty posts

Absolute numbers don't matter until you're 1500+ total, at least.

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.

Ew take a shower, stinky chinky

Huh?

Would I ruin my recovery if I did some core work and HIIT cardio on my off days?

Odds prepare a healthy meal
Evens have McDonalds
Repeating digits do both to get HUGE

Fuck

Nice blog

hi
is 18 too late to start powerlifting?

If you post on Jow Forums it's always too late to start powerlifting.

It's too early

Yeah, if you don't train from child you will never make it and be crowned powerlifting king™ and be given ten natty waifus by rippetoe himself

Nice nice blog post

Evens go have sex

Alright I tested my squat Max today even though I felt like shit

Worked up to lmao4pl8 and failed the second rep. It was supposed to be 10kg under my max

Bench felt like shit too even though it was a light session. Bad day

>Squat max
>Second rep
What

Well I wasn't going to try a heavier weight after the shitty first rep, so I tried for a second

I really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, wish I was drinking right now

Me too
>Meet prep feels
For what purpose

Try hard

Core work, no. Go crazy. HIIT, maybe if you're really pushing hard on it. Also if you're doing something retarded like stationary bike sprints the day before squats.

To try hard

Setting yourself up to fail isn't trying hard.

No, I do boxing heavy bag for my cardio, my knees are shit for cardio.

What about some lateral raises? My shoulders look so weird from the side, I've got yuge front delts and then shrimpy side/rear delts. :(

I didn't think I'd fail it!

WAWTT
nothing
WAWDT

Does my onahole count?

>onahole
Is this owned ironically or unironically?

training my toilet muscle by shitting at 4am

Worked out with my boss today, he benched 405 for 5 which was cool but would have been cooler if his ass didn’t leave the bench every time

You should be training rear delts most days for muh shoulder health. Lateral raises would be fine I guess. I just don't know why you wouldn't do them at the end of a bench session or OHP or whatever.

That depends on whether it counts for my AWHST

No. Owning a fucksleeve is literally the opposite of trying to have sex.

After my compounds, I'm usually pretty gassed.

Another VOLEM, proudly displays his plumage.

Yeah even i dont do that.
Youd probably increase your lifting capacity to a point.
>mfw hung in there with a 4 pl8 squatting monster today and failed 275 after my 3 rep twice. Gettin it

Attached: 15568418317552.jpg (505x337, 79K)

Missed some pause deadlifts today. Went fishing instead. Missing squats on Wednesday since I gotta help my dad. At least I get to bench tomorrow and the later half of the week looks free.

/endblog

What is a VOLEM?

Some shit forced meme.
>some faggot will call me a volem for this

Yeah, throw them in on your off days then I guess. 4x12 of lateral raises once per week will not hamper your recovery, I assure you.

So why are these routines tiered the way they are? Why is Madcow so high up but Texas Method 3-day is meme tier?

See this guy

>why are these routines tiered the way they are? Why is Madcow so high up but Texas Method 3-day is meme tier?
Because you are a moron.

Nigga for real, why?

Why are you so dumb?

You know that brainlet wojack with the barbell caving in his skull? Yeah, that one.

>*all of these programs work (except PH3), but the effort and attitude of the athlete is most important

>It worse way better for squats than anything else
>it's not sustainable in its basic form more than a couple months
>You haven't read the book, so you don't understand the principles of programming

Yeah I get that, but why are they tiered then if they all work? Is it just a meme?

>Volume day takes too long
>Easy day is a waste of time
>The program was designed for hungover football players

It's not a hierarchy. It's a categorized list.

>volume day takes too long
No one here has a life outside of the gym anyway.

Speak for yourself. Anything beyond an hour better be for someone over 400 wilks.

So it's not a ranking, just an arbitrary grouping for laughs? Ok.

My mom dropped me on a dumbbell desu.

>444 wilks
Whew. I'm in the clear.

Cut your gym time in half and spend the other half in the kitchen, fixing your diet.
