Good luck anon.

Also you guys should probably clean your at least your kitchen before you go to bed tonight. You and I both know you need it.

At how low of a bodyweight is a 100kg bench not complete dog shit. Is it ok at 70kg?

>>41419476

How to prevent bar slide, my last squat and bench sessions have been hampered by the barbell sliding down my back from sweat on squats and from my hands gradually sliding outward until I lose my comfort zone on bench grip width, any tips on preventing this without having to use chalk on my back/hands/bar for these lifts it seems excessive given how weak I am (pic related)

>>41420639
i use liquid chalk for literally everything

i grip my bench wide with a wide hand and everything and it locks it in really well instead of being slippery and sweaty as fuck like it would be without the chalk

no reason not to tbqh

>>41420669

Chalk isn't something you decide to use when you get to an arbitrary level of strength, it;s something you use when sweaty hands are getting in the way of you becoming stronger.

>>41420807

Chalk is something you should be using for at least every working, and the last warm up set, of every goddamn pull you do. Deadlifts, their variations, cleans, snatches, and so on.

>Using chalk for a warmup set

Yes, be sure to keep it in your bag alongside your squat bar pad, and lifting gloves.

>>41420871

>Lifting such babbyweight that your last warm up doesn't require chalk

Or maybe you just don't live in buttfucking Kentucky and aren't sweating between March and November just for existing.

>>41420880

Waste of chalk, man; you're being a huge fuckin puss, but you do you.

>>41420897
who gives a fuck you just buy some more chalk and your sets go better are you that poor and weak?

are you all dead

Cuckols has me doing front squats every second squat session but front squats are the fucking worst thing in the world, would I be doing myself too much damage if I just did high bar squats or pause squats or something with 10% more instead of front squats or are they essential?

So is the idea with sheiko is that it's made for pre-competition cycles so that your numbers peak in time for the competition? If so, does it make sense to do it when you're not competing? Can you use it to make your lifts go up in a sustainable way?

>>41420897
yeah cause chalk isn't pennies per block

why be elitist over this, if you need chalk then use it, don't keep lifting a slippy bar this is basic shit jesus christ

>>41421361
using high bar is fine, he says its ok to swap them out if you can't do fronts.

>>41422067
would also like to see this answered

how did you guys find nuckols 3x int med bench?

where is everyone

>>41422846
I'm currently lifting before work. Frig off and go find something better to do.

>>41422873
no

>>41421361
If you're too lazy to learn how to front squat, then you'll never make it out of intermediate.

They're not necessary, but learning an athletic movement is pretty important to lifting.

>>41420897
>Waste of chalk
I ordered 2 pounds of chalk 5 years ago for less than $5. I've used about 10% of it.

Who is worried about wasting chalk? LMAO

Women are children with very different motivations and social drives than men. So stop thinking like a jealous woman, unless you're looking to transition.

>>41423119
you put someone on sheiko or something and get paid?

Can anyone help with an early intermediate TM program focused on powerlifting? I'm coming from SS.
It would have to follow the 4-day split of TM and follow this style:-

Mon
Press (?) Intens
Bench Volume
Chinup (or w/e other pull)

Tue
Deadlift 1x5
Squat Volume (it's OK if squat is second exercise tho? shouldnt it always be first?)
Curls?

Thu
Bench Intens
Press Volume
Chinup (or w/e other pull)

Fri
Squat Intens
RDL 5x5

Probably for PL, bench should be focused more and have more volume than being equal to the press. I'll wait for your comments.
Thanks a lot !

>>41423122
did you read my post bro?

>>41423126
No, I make programs based on JTS principles. I don't just copypaste the templates in the strength block/peaking block videos, nor do I use RP templates for hypertrophy phases.

I'm not jew enough to ask money for something and not put in the work.

>>41423140
yeah i wanna see to u squat almost 4pl8 and then not have the strength to deadlift 3

>>41423147
dude if i knew the reason i'd be trying my best to fix it. i think its possibly by short femurs and weirdly long lower legs but i honestly don't know at this point, it's not increased in over a year

>>41423147

Anon, why doesn't don't you just learn to heart the 5-step DL from Rippetoe?

>>41423162
i've broken my form down before but i suppose it must be fundamentally wrong in some way i've not noticed before

>>41423159
i don't have any, plus my garage is shaped such that i can't film my deadlifts side on. i usually film all my squat sets but i lost my phone after fuggin this girl last week and haven't got a new one since

Any recommendations on switching from wl shoes to flats when squatting? Should I go for a wider stance?

>>41423211
change one thing at a time

Are rack pulls (above knee) an upper or lower day exercise?

>>41423425
id do them purely as an upper back exercise, after your main sets, so do them on either

be mindful not to just drag it up your thighs, see that a lot with rack pulls

some dudebro in my gym just took off his tanktop, revealing a stringer underneath
what's the point? if you're gonna wear something light and sleeveless, why have an identical layer over that one? just wear a tshirt or sweater over the stringer ffs

>>41423456
Yeah I'm looking for some upper back size and strength, my lower body is doing fine for now.
I'm doing 5/3/1, UxLxULx, so I was thinking of doing them on the first L day which is squat, then my upper back would be fresh for diddly on the next lower day.

>be mindful not to just drag it up your thighs, see that a lot with rack pulls
What do you mean? I've only tried them like twice but I think I did that.

>>41420871
I use chalk the moment I walk into the gym

if you have sweaty hands you'll understand

>inb4 he lifts in a commercial gym where hes not allowed to use chalk so he copes by pretending not using is manly

>>41423425
useless exercise that got hyped up by some goofball on youtube tb h

>>41423576
Especially because his "rack pull" is more like a "weighted trap stretch knee extension". His position is completely different from where his deadlift angles would be in the final part of the ROM. It has almost 0 carryover.

>>41423600

do power cleans help a lot of the deadlift

>>41424906
Only if you get really really good at them. But since you're not a professional weightlifter, the answer is almost certainly "no".

Even a 100kg power clean (no easy feat for non-weightlifters) won't help your deadlift much, unless that is below 4plate or so in which case just about anything will improve your deadlift. Even top American weightlifters rarely have a power clean over 140kg.

>>41425069

Farmer walks or deadlift static hold for grip?

I don't think I'll be able to milk TM for much longer. Going to run c6w after, but it didn't do shit for my bench when I ran it a couple of years ago. (I'm coming off an ACL injury, so I just spent a year doing SS>TM to build my lifts back up.) What's a good bench program to run alongside c6w?

I'm undulating rep schemes. But I think I've just about milked it for all it's worth. So I'm looking for a bench program to run alongside c6w. But thanks for all the assumptions.

I get tennis elbow after I bench sometimes

How do I fix this? I use wrist wraps so my hands don't bend back

>>41427740
tennis elbow from bench? now that's new to me

from my experience what can strain the elbow is going to a too low angle or having the force wrong

to explain what I mean, for example there are these incline / overhead machines. at the bottom of the movement if you have the elbows behind your spine it can strain them. or tricep extensions when you angle them wrongly

so maybe going too low on the bench or having very shitty form and basically doing a tricep extension are my best guesses

if your form is fine lower the weight and give your elbow time to adjust. if you are not new to weightlifting and still have that issue you might have a chronical injury that may or may not be related to the bench at all

>>41427740
Probably because your elbows are getting in front of the bar. Try flaring a little more* and see if that helps your barpath/positioning.

*while still keeping your shoulder blades very much pinned together

>>41427740
Are you sure its bench doing this and not low bar squats? I had the same problem and realized it was holding the bar that caused the pain. It was just the most painful while benching, changing to high bar for a couple weeks helped.

>>41427851
I'm doing flat bench, what are you on about
>>41427856
>>41427976
Thanks, I'll try that

>>41427976
Same, I'd wrap up my squat sets with a little achy feeling, jump to bench and be in immediate discomfort. Seconding HB for a bit but also learn to support the bar without jamming your arms into it

>>41423098
>easily pull 150 off the floor, 170 from blocks

Why?

>>41428225
I program myself and understand how to progressively raise volume over a period of years instead of shocking myself for short term gains and kneebola

Would you guys recommend doing a smolov or cowboy method for bench from my next meet, I'm trying to record

>>41428589
Can you explain me what is the deal between isley and supermang?

>>41428716
A full Smolov for BP? Wouldn't do it, do a four day Sheiko if you want high freq with good volume. Cowboy method, one guy here did it, good for squat, not spectacular for bench, which is about what I would have guessed, though it does look kind if fun.

>>41428716
im probably gonna do smolov after i finish my current program but idk how my shoulder would do on it

>>41428768
smolov jr of course

Just watched the new alien conevant and came home and jacked off to short haired chubby Butch girls

What a time this be alive

Also am getting more comfortable with bench, at the expense of my deadlift, granted.

>>41426831
how does it feel knowing that you could have a belt, squat suit and knee wraps and still not squat that weight?

>>41428905
>jacked off to short haired chubby Butch girls
Nice

Really really really want to blow too much money on an AK 74 lads

>>41428767
Jr. I mean, it supposedly peaks the bench at expense of others which I'm willing to do at this meet, plus I don't really like SHEIKO, I get stronger on balls to the walls weight

>>41429153
I've done it, got mediocre gains off it, wouldn't say "never do it" but I wouldn't recommend it either. If you're going to do it don't be worried about dropping sets after hitting one or two @10. This will mostly happen on the 10x3 day, it's fucking hard.

>>41428674
>tfw I have a big ribcage and moderate grip and my bench looks very similar to based fil
feels good lads ngl

>>41427004
thanks lad

My arms just won't grow. I've been trying for a year now!!!!!
I am so body conscious and want to diee

>>41429287
curls and overhead tricep extensions

close grip bench as well. theres no reason your arms wont grow other than you not eating or not training them

>>41429299
For arms I do: OHP, BTN Press, Push press, CGBP, JM Press and hammer curls
I do at least one of each muscle group every single session. 5 sets of 10+ usually

They honestly won't friggin grow reeeeeee

>>41429287
Youre not eating enough, arms are easy to grow just bench and curl. What are you? A GDE?

>>41429335
ok well ohp btn press push press dont do shit for your arms lmao dude listen to me

hammer curls are NOT what you should be doing either and i dont even know what JM press is but stop pressing for arms

you need to do dumbbell supinating curls and use the fucking cables and the rope attachment

5 sets of 10 is retarded as well and working them EVERY session is idiotic.

work arms every upper body day. do 3-4 sets of 8-12 depending on how heavy you wanna go and do actual curls and pull downs.

>>41429287
Chinups, CGBP, bahbill curls, lit'rully any kind of extension

anybody else miss Lívia Cavalcanti?

anyone knows where?
because she posted come pics from USP and I study there

>>41429364
yeah that why everyone with huge arms says they did push press and ohp for them

oh wait no they didnt, they ate a lot and did isolations

>>41429372
psot arms btw i wanna see where thats gotten you

also youre putting unnecessary strain on the rest of your body by doing all compounds when you try and isolate your arms instead of actually isolating them

>>41429372
I can't be bothered to read any of your posts anymore

>>41429335
Heavier on the trahceps work, more vol on the bahceps, they can take it

>>41429381
ok keep doing the same thing thats kept your arms from actually getting worked instead of listening thats smart

>>41419421
OP here I got 13 reps on my amrap yay

is 5x5 a meme

>>41429729

>>41419476
bodyweight bench is already not dog shit. surely all the rich pianas in this board will tell you otherwise, but anyways, if you reach 100kg with 74kg bw you are doing good

>>41429775
If frogs 129.5kg paused bench is shit at 78 then 100 at 70-74 is shit

I know it's not good day long term but shit angry lifting can power you through a workout

What's your favourite lift?

>>41430139
Deadlifts by far

Squats can be good or terrible

Bench is ok

Rows are real fun

>>41429775
I'm gonna go for 107.5kg paused in my next comp at 74kg, I think I could do like 103kg TnG rn if I rested a few days at a bodyweight of 70kg

>>41430219
>squats can be good or terrible
Squat is my favorite lift but I agree with this statement

Also bench is only "ok" because you're probably not training it right

>>41430139
Bench

>>41430139
curls

>>41430139
CGBP for max comfort, stability and ability to grind

Block pulls for safe leverages and fun times

Cheat DB rows for aggression/Eric'ing out

Lateral raises because side delt width is the ONLY way to a non shit physique

>>41429359
>>41429362
Yes

Benching - do you think about pushing up and back towards your head or straight up? Pushing up and back feels weird

>>41430704
i bring it far out to the point where if i held the bar any farther towards my feet it would fall on my stomach so when i press it kinda has to be up and back

im so bored senpai what do i do at 8pm on a saturday i was gonna get a haircut but theyre closed now

>>41431070

Go on a run

>>41428005
lmfao same I just jumped back on a novice program with high frequency squatting 3x per week and it fixed everything.
Can surely squat 120 for reps and pull 160 from the floor. Whereas before I squatted like 90 (lmfao) and could only pull 150 3 weeks ago. if you were wondering the program its ProgrammingtoWin by Izzy Nevarez hes active on youtube and knows what hes talking about at least. imo MUCH better than SS or SL

>>41429287

>>41431590
ok

Are wrist wraps as comfy as knee sleeves?

My wrist has been giving me a little trouble and think I might need to buy some.

>>41432123

I have never used wrist wraps and have zero wrist issues because I know how to grip both a squat and a bench press.

I also bench press like a sissy girl, so maybe that's why.

>>41432123
depends on how tight you make them.
I like to make them really tight for my heavy bench sets.
Never used sleeves so I cant really compare them but the way I use wraps they are pretty uncomfortable

i really like to eat lawrys seasoning out of my hand even though it makes me cough sometimes

i fucking love barbecue sauce holy shit why did i forget about this shit

I'm gonna be a senior in high school next year (I'm 18). My lifting total is 1150 and I've done bjj for about 4 years. If any of you did hs wrestling, is it too late to give it a shot? Will I stand a chance at doing decent?

>>41433163
Been lifting for a little over a year on SS and texas. Grandparents wanted me to come for a walk when we were at our cottage. Walked on a trail on the mountain and in the woods and could barely keep up with my 70yrs old grandpa. Wallking IS evil.

>>41432925
why does he wear the communist shirts and why do people suck his dick

>>41432192>>41432123
>>41432305


its not for if you have wrist issues, the most force is transferred through a stable joint, the wrap casts the wrist joint and keeps it straight and stable

think of throwing a punch, its no good unless the forearm and wrist are in alignment

would sheiko beginner be suited for me?
just started working out and lookin for a power lifting routine: b: 50kg s: 70kg deadlift: 90kg

>>41426831
>not good at something he doesn't do often
>a surprise

?`?

how sustainable is nucklols int bench? (3x a week, medium)

is it one of these programs that you use for like 2-3 months at a time or can you use it indefinitely until it dries up?

also is it good for actually building good sustainable strength or just for peaking for meets and shit?

thanks

has anyone got links to or a copy of PPST? i specifically would like the third edition, i have the others

So I watched tom martin hit a 420kg diddly at 100kg

btw can anyone figure out what song this is ive been searching for 30min

This might be a stupid question but is there anything wrong with making the 2day rest on SS into 3 days just for this week so that my days can realign to M/W/F?

>>41433600
yeah sure
>>41433481
do SS

>>41433592

hes been over 110 for a while now

it's just 1 too many

no

don't know precisely which one it is

Thanks m8 found it its under and over it for anyone wondering

>>41433634
for some people 22lbs is a day worth of food without dropping a Norman Khan in their toilet

Fat Retard would back me up on this

>>41433699
and those people are already like 400lb where 22lb isn't 1/5th of your bw

>>41433704
Anyway its quite impressive that tom martin is close to deadlifting some guys total here while not being clinically obese

anyone here has run texas method successfully?
How did you adjust it? Did you do any assistance?

>>41433741
it works

most people get no progress because they use too heavy weights for volume day

For volume day use around 70-75%, for intensity day use about 85%. Also make sure you do enough upperbody asistance

>>41433747
yeah, i was planning on establishing a 5RM and proceeding to use 90% of it for monday, that roughly equates to 75% of 1RM.

Assistance is what I am worried about though - since the whole idea of the program is to allow for extended recovery between VD and ID, won't excessive accessorizing hinder progress?

>>41423098
start doing front squats, thank me in few months.

Just curious if anyone else gets this or knows why. If I rest longer than a day between squatting sessions, I find that I become very tight and even dropping into a bodyweight squat is impossible, it feels like I completely detrain despite sitting in a squat during recovery and stretching.

Why?

I hate deadlifts so much¡¡¡¡¡!!!!!!!

>>41433824
stretch more, warm up more

>>41429196
Cheers buddy, might just max everyday and recover after the meet

>>41433741

I got my squat up to 600 lbs with Texas Method. And my lolbench press up to LMAO3PLAYT.

I didn't used to do any accessories if you didn't count speed deadlifts and chin ups. This cycle, I'm doing dips on Volume day, along with some speed deadlifts. It makes VD long and miserable, but it gives you all week to recover for Intensity Day.

>>41433962
>talentchad

>>41433962
Thanks for the input.

Do you do the 5rm for diddlys on volume day, or on intensity day?
People's approaches seem to differ on this.

I am a newb at 1/2/3/4, in case it's relevant.

Good fucking morning goddamnit

Looks like a long workout today. Kind of nervous about the benching tbqh.

Also remember to call your mom and tell her you love her

>>41434295
how long do you rest between those sets

How to get up early with energy and motivation? Seems I never feel like doing anything until midday and don't even lift until like 2pm.

Just realised my dick hangs lower than my arms...

I shouldn't be as bad at bench as I am

>>41434295

Convince me to do TM over 531, GZCL, Candito or some other program with periodisation

>>41435233

You find that a little fasted cardio everyday helps so just wake up and do some cardio before eating etc?

>>41435278
My morning routine is roll out of bed, McGill big three, water, exercise bike or run four or five days a week, not a ton, but enough to get a sweat going and have to take a shit, which I then do, then I hop in the shower. I'm now hungry and awake and energized so I make breakfast and go do things I need to do.

>>41435267
TM is fun and works well if you're not a total GDE and you add some triceps work

there are multiple versions in PPST3RD which bench heavy twice a week, as well. look in the dropcanvas link posted above for the book

Can you have an inactivate core?

I've just started doing that 90/90 bracing thing to improve my bracing a couple times daily but I also notice that my core is tighter in normal posture?
