I mean there aren't that many more people to add onto it, if they're even necessary. 1-2 more columns, tops.

When benching, should my elbows stay under the bar (flared out) or stay close to the torso and go away from the bar?

Elbows should always be under the bar. If they're not then you'll lose pressing strength and be at risk for tendinitis.

Prutus my friend, how is your squat coming along? 4 plate in sight before NY?

Currently doing SL 5x5 until I get confident enough doing the main lifts. What sort of program would you recommend for a beginner looking to transition from SL 5x5 to Powerlifting?

>>39650339
Texas

https://twitter.com/chrisw2631/status/796441338300473344

A man without working legs can bench 150kg for doubles, I really hope you can.

Currently doing TM with bench on volume and intensity days every week, cause it sucks. I'm not bad at repping but once it gets heavy I can't do as much as expected. My 5rm is basically the same as my 3*5. I guess due to form breakdown.

Would it be beneficial to get some experience with lower rep ranges? Last Intensity day I did 85 kg, only managed 4 reps. My idea would be to do 87,5 next time for 2*3 or 3*3, then the week after that 90 for 3*2 or 4*2 and then 92,5 for 5*1 and afterwards go back to 1*5 with 85 and proceed the outlined scheme with +1 or 2,5 kgs.

Good idea? Help is very much appreciated

>>39650389
Dude. You are too weak to do Texas. Unless you are a grill or a tiny tiny manlet, just do SS with some accesories. Also you are doing the program wrong. Lower the intensity. So much wrong with your post. Do SS + eat more + sleep

>>39650420
I did GSLP and got to 56/82,5/120/150 all for 5 reps but my OHP and especially bench progression has been a pain in the ass. I definitely eat and sleep enough. There's no way in hell I can add 2,5 or even 1 kg to my bench every time.

>>39650266
implying tbqh

>>39650387
Fun fact: that second rep would have been a no lift in the Paralympics, even slightly uneven lockout is against the rules, as is slowing of the bar's movement in any significant way. If PL gets to the the Olympics, it's gonna be pretttty much no-fun allowed at all. Also a drugaroo named something-Larsen pressed 260kg with no legs, making all paralympic pressers look like weaklings.

>>39649078
>I'm a straight girl, silly ;3
If you self-identify as a girl, then why do you call yourself a trap?
I thought the word "trap" was supposed to describe feminine anime boys, not girls.

>>39650434
Your intensity is too high on volume days. Make volume day a TRUE volume day by keep the discrepency high. Seems like your technique could use some work. you need more reps under your belt. You are ging too heavy too often.

On mondays try doing 4x8 pause bench press. Or 3x10 pause plus 1x10 being touch and go.
You can do more volume on bench than the other two lifts so take advantage of it and do more reps with moderate weight.

I do 3x4 pause, then 3x10 pause for a total of 42 reps on volume day.You are doing only 15. Even at light weight, that tonnage is adding up.

On wed I do 4x8 DB incline keeping it light.

>>39650434
Fuck TM and stop worrying about intensity. Reset your VD to like 70kg and do 5x5/6x4 with either spoto press or pause bench (so you learn to get tight and control the bar i.e bench correctly) and on "ID" do 4x2, 1x2+ starting with like 80kg. Add 2.5kg to each per week and reset to slightly higher than you started with once you stall out. Yes, it'll be a few weeks for you to hit your original numbers, but building up volume and in graining good tech is what you need right now, not max intensity every time you bench.

>>39650465
Now I see your point. Unfortunately we have a little misunderstanding here.

My volume day is 5*5 with weight I can handle easily. 72.5 kg last time. On light day I added 5*4 Spoto Press, also staying shy of failure. The low rep range was only supposed to be for intensity day.

>>39650480
Except for the fact that I wanted to transition into lower rep ranges over the period of a few weeks this is not to far from what I had in mind. Spoto press is on light days though since I thought the max weight is severely restricted due to pausing anyway. Pretty sure paused squats on light day helped my squat, so I thought it could work as well.

>>39650497
Do what you want breh, the main point is that setting new 5, 3, 2 and 1 rep maxes isn't necessary to progress, they'll arise naturally as you'll build volume and refine technique, you dong actually need to go in thinking 'today I bench x for 5 and that's how I make progress'

I approve of this message.

>>39650543
I want my training to be efficient, that's why I ask. Thanks for your help btw.

Though I'm not sure if I made my rationale clear. The lower rep ranges are not for my ego and bigger numbers but to refine my technique. To prevent form breakdown in difficult reps. I still do volume, do spoto press and try to improve my technique every time.

Is near maximal load that dumb for that purpose? My technique is at least not horrible with lower weight but breaks down when it get's heavy.

>>39650572
Doing 5x2 with tight form with a weight you were going to attempt for a new 5rm is much better. Gotta go to bed now dude, just remember that steadily increasing volume and good rep quality are key.

>>39650572
You are not even benching 2 plates mate. Ofc you are going to have bad technique. That's why you practice with low weights which will eventually have a huge carry over to heavier weights when you learn the technique. If you are not doing good technique on a moderate 3x10 pause lifts, you are not gonna do well on a heavy lift. Do your volume, do some reps and find what works for you. Handling heavier weights is just a byproduct of your volume.

Is there an understanding by what he means with "close grip"? I take it to mean a shoulder width grip no one would ever use in competition. Is that instead assumed to mean a "standard" width bench (the vertical forearm at the bottom of the rep grip) that other athletes would use to train strength without silly powerlifting bullshit gimmicks, where "wide grip" is even wider than that?

1kg plates aren't uncommon.

But it really doesn't affect the program at all if you round something a couple of pounds up or down.

As Sheiko says himself, the spreadsheets are just guidelines, not rules.

>>39651369
I have literally never been to a place with 1kg plates in my life, not when I was a member of a PL club either.

>>39651334
There seem to be no problems except for progression to be slower than it might be. Which I'm okay with. My squat and dl go up 2,5 kgs each weak - that's okay in my book.

Bench is pain in the ass though. I haven't benched for quite a while bc a physiotherapist advised me not to due to immobile thoracic spine. I did mobility stuff and I guess I'm fine doing it now. TM allows for more specificity to address my bench and is more fun overall.

What do you guys think about high volume work on a cut? Currently doing 4x10 type work at around 60-70% of my max. Just finished 4 weeks, wondering if I should do another 4 week cycle of it or up the intensity. I'm enjoying the high volume work but don't want to lose too much strength on the cut.

For powerlifting yes, 1.25kg is the norm.

But for olympic weightlifting, they use 1kg and 0.5kg.

So most gyms, at least here, have 1kg and 0.5kg instead of 1.25kg.

>>39651273

I've been pretty wary of ibuprofen for a while now as I think it may have been a precursor to IBS, but as a week off only kinda helped, I'll think about other options.

Has anyone had experience with the advanced sheiko templates? Is there a good way to incorporate autoregulation in them? I'm fairly sure volume acclimation won't be a problem after j&t, so I'd like to incorporate a set close to failure once in a while to gauge fatigue.

I don't really remember the programs in great detail but you can add 5% to some heavy sets. So if you do 85% x2 reps x5 sets, you can do 90% x1-2 reps for one or two of those sets.

>>39652315
Some pretty standard linear periodization I wrote myself. Very low intensity couple of months to kind of rework on some foundational shit.
Knees are tolerable. It's really only the right knee and it just gets really stiff, not exactly painful really but it still sucks.
Pec is all better but I tweaked my shoulder. Doesn't actually cause me pain while lifting at all but makes me nervous.
>>39652335
I've been doing self-written programs for a really long time now. I wanna do something someone else wrote again.

>>39652372
Does your knee respond differently to high volume and high intensity?

>>39652397
Doesn't really seem like it except that it gets stiff faster with higher intensities. Eventually I get the same feeling at lower intensities with appreciable volume.
It hasn't lapsed over into actual pain like I had before so I'm just kind of powering ahead hoping it never does.

>>39653942

Raised heel is important for highbar and front squats/clean, and crucial for snatches.

They wear them for everything because they wear them for their competition lifts, so there's a benefit to just using the heels on everything.

Powerlifters, on the other hand, only wear raised heels for squats and bench, and flats for squats, bench, and deadlift (everyone has their preference on which to use).

For example:
Gibbs wears flats for squats, heels for bench, and flats for deadlift.
Haack wears heels for squats, heels for bench, and flats for deadlift.
Mike T wears flats for all three lifts.
