Near as I can tell it's a single janitor. Not even a mod seeing as no one has gotten banned over these. They have more actual lifting talk than 90% of threads on the front page ffs. Even /plg/ & /fraud/ occasionally get deleted nowadays. So unless a mod actually bans us for off topic posting I'll at least keep making them for those of us who aren't interested in bbing, ottermode, or pure powerlifting & oly.

We could call it Powerbuilding General which wouldn't trigger the /pol/tards as much?

I don't understand how this is okay >>35756863

But this thread isn't.

I'm not even gay but these threads have my goal body for when I'm a father. Why the fuck are they getting deleted? Closeted homos getting angry boners?

>Closeted homos getting angry boners?

Yeah as near as we can figure. It's pretty tarded as the majority of posters are straight according to our poll. You need to post fucking goal bodies so people know what the mode is and what they're aiming for in this specific physique type. Unless you're actually gay even if in denial there's nothing homo about it, 'cause ya know actual straight dudes generally don't get turned on by other dudes and are comfortable with their sexuality.

Tell me if you want to rename it 70s Big General or Powerbuilding General or something to stop the cloested homos sperging out.

I was looking this up yesterday, not sure if I believe it but apparently bodyweight++ pull ups.

Shite day lads.

5 hours of sleep, then had blood work done. Tried lifting, and struggled with weighted pullups, stiff legged deads and rows. Forgot my coffee with cretine and BCAA's at home, as well as my chalk and lifting shoes.

Tomorrow I am going to OHP and bench with some intensity to make up for today's pathetic workout.

How's everyone's training?

Damn that sucks brah. Yesterday was great, Did squats, bench press, rows, powercleans, dips/chin up superset, wide grip pull ups for dat strength & compounds; then dumbbell OHP, pec deck, lateral raises, cable rope pull down, alternating dumbbell bicep curls, & leg press for dat pump and aesthetics. Then ate about 2000 calories (lamb, veggies, fish, more veggies, pasta) & slept. We're all gonna make it brahs.

Use weightlifting shoes and point your feet outwards with a wide stance. Work on form with a low weight until you're sure form is correct. Get a powerlifting or Oly coach to check you, at worst a PT (tho they're clueless usually).

>>35766004

Yes any dude can get this mode from lifting hard and eating enough. Lol 19 is plenty of time. Dudes in their 30s can build this with 2 - 3 years of training let alone your age. Do a beginner strength routine with accessories (any will do even SS with the accessories you're meant to do from week 4), then an appropriate early-intermediate routine like Texas Method or MadCow again with accessories, then an advanced-intermediate powerbuilding routine like 5/3/1 Boring But Big and have your bodyfat around 15%. You're a sik cunt if you wanna be brah not a sad cunt.

>>35760209
>started with deadlifts
>adding squats soon

What else should I add bros ?

>>35766252

Pick a beginner strength routine from the sticky. Get your strength level to intermediate. Remember to do the accessories as well as the big compounds. Eat well. Sleep.

>>35760209
What happens if you cut bodyfat below 10%?

>>35766368

You become a weak twink fuccboi. At least according to the "bearmode" permabulkers.

>>35766368
My thing with the single-digit bodyfat is that while it gives off the appearance of being especially fit I think the reality is that it leaves a person somewhat frail. I figure a person at that level of bodyfat is only a flu season away from significant muscle wasting and hormonal issues, not to mention the protective aspects of bodyfat (see image). The whole point of working out for me is to be robust and strong and while admittedly it would turn more heads at the beach I just can't live with that level of relative weakness.

>>35766502

This. Especially for natties and dudes above 25 husbando mode is the healthiest, fittest, and strongest mode. We're not talking about being fatties at above 20% bodyfat here. Just not as lean as typical /fit/ modes and with crossover to actual athletic & strength ability. But y'know that's apparently gay and inappropriate for a fitness board..

Dude.. Squatting is like the key husbando mode lift. Find your strength level from Symmetricstrength.com and pick an appropriate beginner or intermediate routine that has plenty of accessories. Don't do your own made up shiz unless you've actually read Practical Programming for Strength.

>>35766633
You haven't read Power To The People have you?

This is tried and true stuff, its just relatively unheard of in the West.

>>35766652

I've been asking the brah who brings that up to post the program..

>>35766651
no offense but i'm not sure you're terribly experienced.

my quads are enormous already, i gotta lay off or i'll end up with legs that are too big (imo /hbg/ is too concerned with legs that are too large).

the general theory behind the style of training outlined in PTTP is very low rep, frequent training, with a focus on very heavy compounds.

Justin Lascek. See 70sbig. /hbg/ is pretty much his philosophy down to using his about as copypasta.

>>35766723
yeah, exactly like that. makes perfect sense desu.

>>35766652

I've read power to the people.

I'm just bloody confused about in what world doing wrist curls and calf raises for heavy triples is a good idea.

>>35766723

Not really, much less intensity than the Bulgarian method and much less volume than is standard for more usual Russian style routines.

>>35766748
heavy calf training has been around for ages. and who ever said that rev wrist curls must be trained using piddly weights and thousands of reps? its worth a try and it makes perfect sense - they can take serious punishment and aren't going to respond to anything less than brutal workouts (at least with my stubborn ass forearms)

>>35766775

I've done it. I've trained with a lot of people who've done it.

You know what the result has been every time? Repeated outbreaks of tendonitis and zero effective gains.

>>35766782

Same here desu. Got tendinitis from kind of forearm training that was described..

>>35766782
can you rec me something better? thanks for the advice too. whats your stance on the calf raises.

>>35760727
Poll anon here. I'm favorable to 70s big. I remember there was a thread named life that once and it got deleted too, but I guess there's no harm in trying again next time.

>>35766793

I've never done enough of them to know either way. My gut feeling is that super low reps of any isolation is touchy ground, but that's more speculation than experience when it comes to calves.

For forearms, I've had much better results with static grip work than with rep work (although people much better at this sort of shit than me say its good to do some extension work to go with all the squeezing stuff that grip work normally consists of). Farmers walks, fat bar work, grippers if you've got good ones, high rep shrugs, even hex holds and such.

The key regardless of exercise choice is to keep an eye on how beat up your hands and forearms are getting, because they're slow to recover and prone to overuse issues which will fuck everything else up.

Can I be husbando mode if I'm brown?

>>35766832

No

>>35766832

99% of able bodies dudes can be husbando mode. /fit/'s regular rules on not being able to make it like height, race, wrist size, hip size, facial aesthetics, insertions, etc don't apply. Lift heavy & hard, eat well, be as healthy and fit as you can with a bit of traditional male style. That's it. Just hard work is required.

>>35766850

>Implying /hbg/ doesn't love cute brown joocy husbandos.

Even better if manlet as well. No homo.

how am I supposed to reach husbando mode without roids? why live

>>35767037

You don't need roids for hbg. Unless you're a competitive athlete either cheating or in an untested federation. You need to be big but not fat. Not big AND lean at the same time. That's bbers brah.

>>35767067

How to get husbando starting from don draper mode?
I'm 6'5 currently 225 lbs, pic related

>>35767775
Lots of lifting and time. Really, that's it. Eat at maintenance for while, do a routine that has you in the gym 3-4 time per week doing compounds, and give yourself time.

Push/Pull is a good routine, as are programs like 5/3/1 and Lyle McDonald's bulk.

Yeah but Don doesn't like he lifts at all nor does he in the show. All you see him do is push-ups in Mad Men. He's just tall, broad-shouldered, looks great in his tailored suits, handsome and has a ladykiller personality. Rich as fuck too. He made it without picking up a single barbell.

Anyone incorporated Oly work to get husbando mode? I've hit intermediate on my lifts with MadCow. Added in power cleans at novice. Thinking of adding power snatches but already doing a lot of volume once you include accessories.

It's FAR superior to SS. You need to bench twice a week at LEAST. It's not just getting in the benching, it's the volume work and assistance exercises as well that make the program so damn good.

Few guys at my gym an it after they did their 6 week meet program and have made substantial gains.

>>35767915
Switch once you've milked all your gains and your squat doesn't go up any longer. Those are some great stats. and you don't look like absolute shit. Congrats man, you're going to make it.

TM is great. If you've already stalled a lot on SS, then switch. But man, your first Monday or two will be absolutely killer. I remember how I felt front squatting 185 5x5 and it was terrible.

Agreed. I did too. Surprised it had an effect. Based mods. Next edition should be called We Win Edition.

>>35767931
Depends if you want your snatch and C&J to go up, and you care about it more than anything else. I'm sure it won't kill you to add in some snatches and cleans. Power Snatches are a DL variation in some programs, and I do clean and presses on my push day.

http://70sbig.com/blog/2012/07/transitioning-to-olympic-weightlifting/

>>35768055
Thanks man, I think I'll go ahead and transition to TM instead of SS.

The template of Texas Method I looked at never mentioned front squatting. Do I absolutely need to incorporate that? It's been a long while since I've front squatted, and I would have no clue what weight to start at.

>>35768094
If you check the pastepin, I included a link to both books of the TM.

The TM is a template, not a set in stone. Most people choose to up their press, DL, squat and bench. I did it a little differently. I wanted to increase my press, bench, front squat and clean, so I did a program which had me max those out. It isn't necessary to do front squats, no, but you can incorporate them if you wish.

Wednesday's light day can include a variation of a squat, like the front squat or light paused squats instead.

I'd suggest taking a lazy Sunday to read through some of the Texas method, if you have the chance, in full. Some variations, for instance, don't have people doing power cleans on Mondays, but a DL variation, such as stiff legged DLs or lighter paused. Really, it's up to you to determine what will work best for -you-. Not everyone is made the same, either.

Either way, you'll make great gains on the TM man, good luck.

Yeah husbando mode is more like classic weight training with developing size, aesthetics, conditioning, strength, & health fairly equall and at the same time, before it split into separate disciplines of bodybuilding, powerlifting, oly lifting, strongman etc.

Early bbers had little distinction Arnold was a competition winning powerlifter, Sergio Olivia a gold medal winning oly lifter, Reg Park's was an all round sportsman & military fitness instructor etc.
