How did your consultation with Bryce Lewis go? I missed this weekend's threads desu

>>35660506
it was interesting. I think i'm going to go with the coaching for the 11 weeks or so before collegiate nationals. Form was he suggested using a narrower bench grip as a variation and bringing my sumo stance in a tad. He said raising the bar position on my back when squatting would likely lessen any bicep/shoulder pain i have and wouldn't negatively affect my squat.
My biggest question was on the benefits of coaching in general, not with TSA coaching. He said he shared my concerns that coaching really isn't necessary or helpful to many types of people. Nutrition wise he wants me to track my food consumption for a little bit and we might make adjustments.
Seemed like a really smart and nice guy desu.

I could of figured he might suggest that, he was bringing his own sumo in a little while back, said it was good IIRC and I've seen him suggest/program close grip bench for basically everyone/everything. The TSA 9wk is chock full of it.

11 weeks is what you'll have left after this sheiko cycle, right?

I'm only saying that because I've actually seen a cambered safety bar.

I have no idea if its a thing or just something the owner whipped up (he's a welder, I think. Something in that line of work). But it exists. And it terrifies me.

>>35660742
just back of calves i think.

We are, I'm just capitalizing on your period of vulnerability so you'll give in to the hate and become a SSB-using, slingamajig-abusing bro lifter like me.

All meets should be over the course of 3 days. First day bench, second day deadlift and third day squat because nobody likes squats.

Squats are so bad. Why can't they replace squats with power cleans?

>>35662206

>>35662376
are you doing them to strengthen your lower back? prob RDLs or goodmornings, although both of those will incorporate much more hamstrings.

>>35662385
Mmmhmmm

You can tell me bby I don't care

>>35662391
I'm on starting strength and on the later stage novice phase you deadlift less frequently and do back extensions before chin-ups.
Due to the high frequency of back extensions I wouldn't be able to do RDL, perhaps good mornings, however my hamstring flexibility isn't good enough to do them properly.

>however my hamstring flexibility isn't good enough to do them properly.

No. I haven't competed and I have no intention of competing in a tested fed. My sights are on strongman, which is an all-you-can-pin wild west.

>>35662527
I'm against drugs in sport in general but there are few options when participating in strongman so I won't judge you too harshly friendo

Why do you care how much other people lift ?

>>35662679
Because I wanna be the very best
like no one ever was
to squat more is my real test
to bench more is my cause!

How to webm lads? I thought I made one without audio but it rejected it. I selected not to export audio in premiere and then ran it through some chrome app. Any clues?

>>35662679
It's powerlifting... that's the point of the sport.

>>35662679

Honestly, I kind of don't except in a fairly abstract way. I care about what sort of range people are doing at a given level but I don't really care much about what the other guys at the meet are doing. They aren't going to make any difference to my total.

is it worth lifting at a powerlifting gym?

A gym called DBS opened recently and its relatively close to me, probably like a 15 minute drive with no traffic. But its $1000 a year and i am currently only paying $375 a year. Its a lot of money senpai.

>>35663157

Depends on the gym.

A lot of the time, you're paying a bit for equipment and a lot for the convenience of having a good lifting crew all centered in one place. If they don't have that or you don't benefit from it, the cash isn't well spent.

>>35663157

How did they do that? Also IPF is literally the biggest fed, and the only fed that's recognised by people other then the guys in it.

>>35663675
My friends who lift and people I've chatted in the gym with who are into lifting have no idea about the IPF yet know about Sarychev, CWS, Green and etc. I agree that the IPF is more legit and feels/looks more official though.

This week looks hard as fuck tbqh, I'll do everything I'm supposed to but it's gonna be some looooong days.

What the fuck lads. I just failed a squat set in sheiko . I had 2x3 @85% on my first part of squats. The doubles were so heavy and grindy I decided against risking an injury and only did a single for the 3rd set. Last week 80% flew up for triples.
Bit confused and sad tbqh. I hope it's just a bad day ;_;

I want to base this off of the material I've read in Juggernaut Training, with a hypertrophy phase of 2 months, 2 months for development of strengths, and 3-4 weeks of peaking or working to a daily max, with exercises becoming more and more specific as time goes on. Can anyone help me? Lifts are 150/80/160 (I neglect benching) at around 70. I front squat 120, push press 80 and OHP 50kg.

>>35665224
>becoming more and more specific
Specific to powerlifting?

>>35665240
Yes. So at the beginning say I'd have a bunch of pull variations like snatch grip, deficit, block, etc then at the end i would work with competition deadlifts

>>35665361
Tbh, it sounds mostly like you know what you're trying to do, other than writing out a whole program for you what do you really need help with? If you neglect benching, stop doing that.

Should I be afraid of stalling?

I am cutting, and have been for a little while, and I benched 62.5kg 5x5, I am afraid I won't be able to get to at least 70kg 5x5 while cutting.

I'm on SS as written.

Am I going to be ok?

Obligatory "don't do that, it's probably not going to help" and "you'd be better off changing programs than trying to integrate those things".
Now that that's out of the way, why do you want to do this? What are your goals with the chains?

Do you train with chains?
Couldn't I add them in on my lifts after each I've deloaded and continue using them while progressing up until the weight and chains together becomes too heavy? Would that be effective?

I'm just thinking they will help improve overall explosiveness so when I hit heavier weight I will be able to do them quicker and avoid stalling on lockouts. desu I just siwtched to a real strength gym from Anytime fitness and I'm excited. It's staunchly American and I love it

>>35665388
I guess I just want to have solid set/rep/rest schemes for each block. The other thing I do wish to initially incorporate some body weight movements like push-ups pull-ups jumping, some gymnastics movements, running for endurance and sprints when I would need them appropriately. That's the trickier part. During deload weeks id also do amraps with my body weight.

I'm a bit behind, but I hear Izlee benched 140kg. Dat true?

With daily squatting, that is easier said than done.

Wtf is going on lads. I don't think I changed anything about myself, but suddenly I get a lot of female attention whenever I go out, which never happened before. They literally hit on me first, and all I need to do is look at them. I've even been asked for my numbers a few times.

When I wrote heavy speed singles I mean around 80%. All of my hypertrophy come from daily squats and posterior chain work.

The important question is, did you recently acquire a gf, or any significant love interests?

women are fucking annoying in this regard. I've made the observation, as well as LOTS of other friends of mine making the same observation, that when you don't have a gf / developing interest, there are NEVER any women around. no options, no women want you, couldn't get a date to save your life etc.

Then, the day you get a gf, all of the sudden its fucking raining women. this happens to me ALL the fucking time, and I know 5 other friends IRL who have the exact same issue.

>>35665858
What I'm hearing is that you want to do speed work.
It doesn't really fit into StrongLifts. You're lifting heavy every session, so you either have to give up a session (which would drop your volume considerably and hinder strength gains) or put the speed work at the end (when you're already fatigued and can't go very quickly anyway).

Keep a minimal deficit going. But then your cut is going to last forever, so you have to weigh the options.

You don't need da belly to be strong

>>35666321

5/3/1 did really well for me. Work on timing your meals. Try to get a good whack of carbs in right before training. Learn to love caffeine pills/coffee/preworkout. Do not fuck about with your sleep schedule. Eight hours of sleep erry night really helps take the edge off the caloric deficit.

Good luck, lad.

>>35666321
Less volume. Or carb cycling, but you might just want to aim for maintaining strength until your cut is done.

>>35666481
Yeah, well. You make some sense, but there are cases when people really do get too fat. And they will have to cut eventually. So the further they go, the longer and harder it is to come back to a reasonable body composition.
You have to be smart about it and don't let yourself get too fat in the first place.

What I'd rather do is cut down back to about 15% and then keep the weight constant and try to recomp.

>carb cycling
There are lots of ways to do this. The two methods that come to mind immediately are carb backloading (only eat carbs at night after training) and a cyclical ketogenic diet (zero carbs all the time, but with one carb refeed day per week).
Recommended reading:
- "Cheat Mode" by silverhydra (google it, it's just some pages on his website)
- "Carb Cackloading" by John Kiefer (maybe in the dropbox?)
- "Rapid Fat Loss Handbook" by Lyle McDonald
- "Ketogenic Diet" by Lyle McDonald

They're all pretty short, so don't feel too daunted.
Cheat Mode is kind of a TL;DR of Carb Backloading, but the Kiefer book is much more in-depth and very helpful.
The Rapid Fat Loss Handbook is an absolute must, imo. It doesn't focus specifically on carb cycling, but it has important concepts and details.

>>35666463

>>35666389

Oh, and worth noting: don't do keto if you care about performance in the gym. You don't need it to lose weight, so it's not worth it imo.

>>35666608
I usually eat hundreds of grams of carbs before I lift, wouldn't something like keto screw me over as I wouldn't have as much energy to lift?

Buy yourself a cheap pair of Do-Win heeled shoes and you'll find your form improves greatly.
The green shoes btw, you'll know em when you see em.

As for form, it's far from perfect, but as expected from a novice. I'd recommend stretching hamstrings before squats to lower the risk of injury.

Not a static stretch, a dynamic stretch.

Sure, but it might make more sense to think about weekly calorie intake than daily anyway

are the gyms busier today because mlk? I don't really want to go but I haven't been in weeks. Don't think this is good for my lifts

>>35667152
I see, thanks for the heads up.

Is there any way I could have a genetic inclination for upper-body rather than lower-body strength?

First time squatting I got the bar for about 3 reps (srs), could barely bench the bar for like 1. Few months later on SS I was benching 100KG paused for sets, while squatting 80KG and Deadlifting 110KG.

What is wrong with me my proportions are normal, I just tend to have a way easier time building upper-body muscle and strength than lower

>>35666481
Or eat at maintenance on training days, keep volume high and carry on.

>>35667240
It's purely a popular myth that you can't get stronger on a deficit. How is it any different to people gaining massive strength while barely gaining any bodyweight? Most strength gains are from neural factors- make sure you get enough protein to let your muscles recover and you're fine.

I train heavy Monday and Wednesday, so if I were to cut I'd eat at maintenance on those days, and at a 700 calorie deficit for the rest.

Stay safe joe
