Thanks. yeah to be clear I'm doing 5/3/1 and this is only really a problem on the 3 or 1 rep sets, and the only thing I'm taking is 2 scoops of protein powder a day. I'll try doing a form reset between lifts too

On your 3 rep day amrap set at max effort you should realistically be repping out like 8ish and on your 1 rep day you should be repping out 5ish, tbh.

I stopped going to the gym and just go to the climbing gym now because unlike my regular gym you have to wear your mask and wash your hands and they limit the number of people in there at once.

My regular gym is a delightfully crappy basement dungeon but I don't feel safe in there at all with a recent surge in numbers in this area.

Any advice for intense back and lat workouts at home?

I actually have managed to get a somewhat full setup at home over the last 6 months and have a barbell with some plates and an adjustable dumbbell pair. Have an adjustable bench too.

I'm still really feeling like I'm missing out on heavier back and lat work. Haven't done seated cable rows, lat pulldowns, and pull-ups for 7 months now.

I can't make a pull-up bar work in my studio apartment, the bathroom frame is too fragile to support it and the front door is configured in a way that won't work with one.

If you can't make a pullup bar work at your place, is there a playground nearby with some monkey bars or something?

Steroid youtube is the best thing.

I remember seeing this video of this guy who was detailing how he was doing while on TRT and I went back and saw another video of his called like "how I NATURALLY increased my testosterone!", and the jist of it was he got some bloodwork done and his Test levels were like 500 so he did some clomid and got tested again, and it was 700 after, and since that wasn't high enough he just started injecting test at like 200mg a week after shopping around for doctors, and that was how he naturally increased his testosterone.

Things began to unravel when CBSA officers intercepted packages destined for one of Egglestons associates, Greg Doucette, a bodybuilder in Halifax. Authorities raided his home, storage locker and car in August 2012 and seized $250,000 in steroids and thousands in cash.

Here he is talking about Elliot Hulse who used to be a lifty guy who gave good advice but now is like... a red pill cult leader or some poo poo

For real though please don't do starting strength unless you can be absolute certain you can move onto something else the moment any lift at all stalls out, because how it does weight resets along with people being new to weight training running it is a recipe for an injured goon.

For something that's super basic, a newbie could run something akin to SS or Stronglifts which is like 3 sets of 5 where Day A is Squat, Bench and Row, and Day B is Deadlift, OHP, and Pullup for just for like 2-3 months to get familiar with these movements.

GZCLP is most recommended nowadays because it's more balanced (less squats, more deadlifts and pressing), the main lifts are automatically periodized because you end up doing 1 heavy/low rep day and 1 light/high rep day for each lift in a week, and dealing with stalls is sensible where AMRAP sets are utilized for volume and additional sets at lower reps are used.

Another option I've been told is good for a beginner is 5/3/1 for Beginners, once some familiarity with barbell training is established.

PS: T-Rex Mode is real (not me)




Going on about Starting Strength's stalling protocol, there is an expectation that doing less of the same thing will make you stronger. And while resetting your weight by 10% and working back up does work, you end up lifting more because you are better rested, in the same way that a powerlifter would leading up to a competition. This also is an excellent way to get injured if you are doing it over an extended period of time, which is why powerlifters don't run peaking programs for an extended period of time, but beginners end up doing this with starting strength

Does starting strength do the same "hit a stall back up and hit it again back up and hit it again back up and hit it again ok now deload and hit it again and back up and hit it again..." before changing volume that SL5x5 does? If so yeah, once the stalls start run.

I don't think it's the exact same as Stronglifts (Stronglifts has you also do less sets when you stall I think), but yeah it's that same scheme

You gotta hit 3 post stall deloads (which you have to stall 3x each to even deload) to have the volume reduced on Stronglifts. I've still got the app :P

So squat Monday, 5,5,3,2,1 (and big rests), stall, RPE 10
Squat again Weds, 5,5,4,2,1
and Friday 5,5,5,4,2

That's a lot of squatting to failure and racked up fatigue and bullshit injury risk as well.

Wait if you fail on a set you're supposed to just keep going with the rest of the sets for that lift for the day? :psyduck:
