Is there any logical reason why you would fucking say that post is underrated? Has anybody expressed any kind of dissatisfaction or criticism at all against it? Are you delusional? Are you reading replies that are nonexistant? Maybe you come from communities with voting systems, but there is literally no way that you could know what other people think of that post you just replied to here. Maybe it's psychological. Maybe it's your own post you're replying to, like a 12 year old fucktard liking his own facebook posts thinking his swelling autism is going unnoticed. Maybe your self esteem depends on you tricking yourself into thinking someone out there thinks your post is worth something. Or maybe you are just a retard, the worst kind of retard, the one who thinks he's smart, the one who thinks he's the only one to have gotten the joke, to have understood the post. Well, guess what, faggot, that post is under no definition underrated so why don't you do the world a favor and go check out what the bottom of your toilet smells like?

Everybody says the Bulgarian method has way too high frequency, overall volume and maxing out on 1-2 lifts everyday is gonna burn most people out even without performing any back-off sets, then why has nobody started doing a Bulgarian method approach but only like 2 or 3 times a week so the volume and frequency is low enough so you can adapt and include enough back-off sets so you still get sufficient volume to cause adaptation? Eventually when you're ready to do more work, you can start incorporating more days until you've reached 7 days a week.
>>
>>41566431
Because it's sub optimal. A well designed program with a good amount of volume will be better for you long term
>>
>>41566431
But you're describing exactly what the Bulgarian method was originally. Young teens didn't start off squatting 21 times per week on the Bulgarian weightlifting team, they slowly built up their work capacity.

It's not that the bulgarian method has too much work, but that it has too much work at high intensity. Doing 4 sets of 10 is much easier to recover from than 10 sets of 4 (at the same rpe at least). A ton of singles isn't necessarily too many sets or reps, but at that intensity, for any longer duration is gonna wreck your body.

Not to mention the lack of periodization and variation. And I don't just mention this negative stuff from a mental standpoint, it's not just boring, it's literally suboptimal from a physiological standpoint.
>>
>>41566398
You should do chinups on SS since they're literally in the program, but most people just ignore it. Curls are optional for a novice.

hardship makes you stronger lad
>>
>>41566742
This. Even if you switch to something like 531, you're still projecting to add 60lbs to your bench and 120lbs to your Squat and Deadlift in a year and that's if you don't employ the 6 week training cycle with only a deload after the 7th week. That would add 75lbs to your upper lifts and 150lbs to your lower body lifts respectively. You just don't experience stalling every couple of weeks.
>>
>>41566790
Everybody running around screaming that's not optimal all a bunch of sub intermediate level scrubs

If he's a bitch it doesn't matter what programming he does because they'll quit when it gets hard. For me personally I'd rather have slow steady progression with a few steps back occasionally than hard plateaus. But what do I know, I've been Lifting for more than a couple of years I'm like 99% of the quote unquote powerlifters here

If this kind of progress is possible for you, you're either roiding or have elite genetics.

direct arm work is a waste of time tb h

Theres no actual proof that it actually promotes adaptation
>>
>>41566879
where did you even pull these numbers from?
>>
>>41566949
5lbs increases every week on squat and deadlift, and once every 2 weeks on bench. That's literally the program.
>>
>>41566974
>and once every 2 weeks on bench.
wait is that true
>>
>>41566985
Have you ever even looked at the program? You rotate bench and overhead press. One week you increase the weight on bench, the next week on overhead press.
>>
>>41566974
rip isnt going to come to your home and rape you if you dont add 5lb a week. you can make small jumps when 5lb becomes too hard. also, the squat progress you outlined is doable on TM without steroids for non GDEs. bench might possible if you make alterations outlined in PP and have good genetics. deadlift, youre right. TM is shit for deadlifts
>>
>>41567027
Jeez dude I thought you meant the adapted version for powerlifting where you dont do that
>>
>>41567027
its safe to assume if hes posting in /plg/ hes not doing ohp as a main lift. PP outlines alterations to make TM suitable for powerlifting
>>
>>41566937
are you retarded? ofcourse curls promote arm growth. stop trying to meme people into having dyel arms. doing a few curls takes no time and takes nothing away from the rest of your training
>>
>>41567087
I meant there is no proof that it promotes any more adaptation than compound exercises

why waste my time doing curls AND chins/rows if those already stimulated it enough to grow
>>
>>41567125
post arms then. your argument is like saying theres no point doing assistance work for the main lifts
>>
>>41567213
That's not at all similar to the argument he's making.

Also asking him to post his arms makes me think that you might be that faggot Sean that everybody doesn't talk about

Assistance work for big compound lifts can be an excellent way for an intermediate or an off-season Advance lifter to correct weaknesses. Snatch grip deadlifts for deadlifts for example.

It curl is such a small component to overall bicep growth that it basically doesn't matter if you're already doing heavy rowing or weighted Pull-Ups chin-ups. Anybody can throw curls into their program and it's not going to make much of a difference unless you just enjoy the pump or the .5% difference it will make to your muscle growth.

The only argument I can see for spending time on doing curls and other isolation variations is for injury prevention and for personal enjoyment
>>
>>41567308
this tb h
>>
>>41567308
Nah, if you train a muscle it will grow. Its nothing more complex than that.

While I admit you can grow your biceps in size through chin-ups and perhaps rows, they will never be as large as you expect from modern day bodybuilding.

The curl is the most important factor of bicep growth.
I don't understand why you'd argue otherwise.

Reminds me of when people use to say squats give you big arms because they increase your test levels
Like wtf lol do people just make this shit up

Anyway, I guarantee you don't have as much lifting experience as me so I'll let you learn for yourself like I had to for myself.
>>
>>41567308
I asked him to post his arms to validate his belief that chins/rows are enough. if he has noodle arms, thats pretty damning evidence that what hes doing doesnt work

what about LTRs, or JM presses etc. for bench assistance (or hypertrophy)? are these pointless too

what evidence have you got that chins/rows are enough and that extra curls wont do anything for hypertrophy

and a few sets of bb curls takes <10 minutes. youre hardly wasting much time

>>41567386
>While I admit you can grow your biceps in size through chin-ups and perhaps rows, they will never be as large as you expect from modern day bodybuilding.

Actual studies, measured in lifters
>>
>>41567386
First of all feel free to go fuck yourself

Next of all, you can't compare bodybuilding when you're talking about growth from strength training for a natural athlete. Bodybuilding is all about the chemistry and then the leanness to show off the bicep .

I'm not going to do the research for you but there's been enough studies out there to show that the benefits of isolations on top of heavy compounds is negligible for natural lifters

I'm not at all saying that you should not do curls, I'm just saying that they contribute far less to arm size then heavy compounds with Progressive overload
>>

Hehe, you've got a lot to learn

>>
>>41567474
except its not 500kg directly on the bicep. also, it stacks. its just more additional volume/stimulus. if it was 680kg > 500kg. also, heavy rows are much more taxing on your body in general. you can do more curls and recover faster from them than heavy rows
>>
>>41567462
I said fuck you because that's the same thing I would say to some other cunt running around acting cunty

://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc

And to simplify things for you because you keep on trying to twist my words because that's about the only fight you could try to win, I'm not saying that someone shouldn't do curls. But curls as a single joint exercise contribute very little too muscular growth unless somebody isn't already doing some type of weighted or resistance oriented pulling

If you're blasting gear though then it doesn't matter what you're doing training wise because you're going to grow anyways as long as you keep upping the dose on the right quantities

I don't give a shit about convincing you, Sean

I have absolutely nothing against curls. You can even do nothing but curl specifically for bicep growth but you're going to end up with tendonitis and you're not going to develop any type of functional carryover pulling strength from what you could do with rows and chin-ups

I even picked studies that pertained untrained men , which is basically you but I'm using the term man loosely

But feel free to keep arguing. I know you like the attention. It's probably about the only human interaction you get all day

cant read huh lmao, now go post a study that promotes your argument

Let me give you all a TL;DR of this whole discussion

>you can get a pretty decent bench without isolation movements
>you can get pretty big without isolation movements
>if you wanna be jacked as fuck, you should probably do isolation movements (even if they're not very cost efficient)
>if you don't do isolation movements, you best not complain about gains plateauing or some shit cuz you're obviously a pubmed wizard that knows what to do to fix your own problems so why bother wasting our time with it
>>
>>41567645
>>41567677
Untrained men are going to show better possibilities of continuing muscle growth with isolation movements on top of compound movements

Untrained men are going to put on more potential muscle quicker than Advanced athletes

If they did the same study on highly trained athletes you would only see even more damning evidence against isolation movements contributing to muscular hypertrophy on top of heavy compound movements
>>
>>41567629

>all percentage differences that theyre calling negligible are infact not. theyre significant taking into account time frame

>>41567768
you clearly dont understand scientific methodology. 29 is a very small sample size

have you ever actually lifted? 10 weeks of lifting would not show significant results at all. the results they did show are in our favour. they have simply been deemed negligible

if theyre untrained a very small stimulus would have them reaching their max amount of adaptation. you could have probably halved the over all volume and not seen much change in results (cant know for sure because they didnt disclose how much volume they actually had lmao)

I would like some form of raw data to compare for myself. I would like tape measurements and several other measurement in addition to however they tested size (idk how they did because again, it was undisclosed lmao)

a 1-2% difference over a short period of time adds up. look at this from a lifters perspective. context has to be taken into account in statistics

it is arbitrary. what exercises are they preforming. we dont know as it doesnt seem to have been disclosed. what a coincidence hmmmmmmm

my evidence is the fact I have experienced it myself and the overwhelming majority of the "lifting community" agrees

the evidence youve provided was undeniably flawed. you cant deny/disprove any of these >>41567861 things. provide studies from actual athletes (preferably with background info on their training) where their methodology and results are available in raw data, and I'll take you seriously

All of them.
Bulgaria was/is a roid nation in weightlifting comparable to Russia, China, Kazachstan and Turkey. It doesn't diminish their accomplishments, but we shouldn't deny it either.

fuck off you noodle armed fag. you are walking evidence as to why we should be doing bicep curls and not sticking just to compounds

Yo guys, how bad is it for my bodycompostion if i eat to much fat while i am bulking?

I heard that if you are eating lots of prot and carb along with lots of fat, excess fat in combination with your prot and carb will lead to higher body weight fat and so you should avoid going over your daily fat quota.

You are depressing the shit out of me bro
>>
>>41568060
Yes keep fat as low as possible when bulking. It wont make a huge difference, maybe a pound of extra fat over your entire bulk
>>
>>41568071
I'm not talking about any studies; i am simply telling you that anecdotes and what your community believes have absolutely no bearing on scientific reality. I doubt you really even understand what studies are. Most people here are not very smart and this is one of the least-educated boards on 4chan, it is obvious.
>>
>>41568036
Woow so your anecdotal evidence is that a bunch of dudes doing compounds and isolations proves that isolations actually provide additional benefit in that situation lmaooo.

my proof is that when I was a no-isolations fag like you I had small arms, now I do curls, they started to grow. its that in general, athletes who dont do some additional hypertrophy work are often small. and its that ACTUAL RESPECTABLE COACHES program isolation work

Before you go off projecting how about you post your own arms. For the record I'm still an advocate for doing some isolations to prevent injury and bring up lagging weak points, but they are no replacement for compound pressing and pulling movements.

IMPORTANT

Everybody post your flexed bicep then tell what exercises in your program you do for your biceps.

I do deadlifts, weighted chin-ups, body weight pull ups, barbell rows and curls once a week just because I enjoy it.

Sean please respond with your gigantic 22 inch pythons and your 14 hour arm workout and blow us all the fuck out
>>
>>41568240
me posting my own arms wouldnt really mean shit. as I mentioned, I used to be anti-isolation like you. my arms have only recently started to catch up

also, I definitely never said they should be a replacement for compounds. we're in /plg/. my main goal is to be good at s/b/d. having larger arms is a secondary goal

Pioneer phantoms for first wraps, y/n? 200 squat @ 86

Only hit 1 rep on final week of C6W, what do i do deload or repeat cycle?

I hit a solid rep at the weight, and previous cycle i think i cheated a bit on my bench my arse came up that is why i managed to hit more than i probably should have.

I was able to hit the same weight for a shoddy single, but it was bouncing and arse in the air. This time my arse was planted firm and it was much more controlled rep.

Question is should i deload by 2.5kg and hit top end on all the reps so that i hit a solid week 5 or just repeat the same cycle.

What weight % do y'all use for snatch grip deadlift?
>>
>>41575198
4-8 reps, RPE preferably no more than 9, works well with both load drops, rep drops, and repeats.
>>41574908
I can never get over not wearing boxershorts underneath tights, so I end up with three layers and suffocation.
>>
>>41575198
And uh, seems my SGDL is about 80% of my sumo and 85% of my conventional.
>>
>>41575198
It's gonna vary between lifters based on proportions and strengths and weaknesses. You just need to find what you can actually lift on it and go from there. I wouldn't max out if it's your first time ever doing it of course.
>>
Ok i figured this would be a better place to ask instead of the QTDDTOT

If i only care about raising my deadlift numbers, could i take the deadlift day from the 5/3/1 routine and place it inside my current routine and achieve the same amount of progress on my DL as if i were doing the regular 5/3/1 program?

I know the author talks a lot about how people shouldn't change the program too much, and that if they change it they're no longer doing 5/3/1 etc. But i just want to boost my DL without having to completely switch routines
>>
>>41575667
It'll probably work fine.
>>
>>41575253
how does 3x5 @ 65% off the 1rm DL sound?
>>
Which novice program yields good results and can be completed in 60-90 minutes? I'm still on the way to intermediate numbers but since I just got promoted I have less time to train
>mfw more money is gainsgoblin's hellhound
>>
>>41575667
Yes, but please also squat.
>>41575836
Light, but start there and build up.
>>41575875
Any of them, really. Just don't rest for an eternity between sets.
>>
>>41575875
2 8
8
Although you'll be limiting your progress by a little bit by keeping your rest times short.
>>
>>41575945
Why have you stayed despite all the other trips leaving?
Why haven't you joined the discord?
>>
>>41575875
Try lowering the weights with 20 kg or something and do the usual routine but keep the rest periods short enough that you'll be done in 60-90 min.
>>
>>41576081
I don't know. It's a habit that's hard to break, but I'm getting there.

I tried, once or twice back around the time when Raff was active there. It was as if this general was on /b/, so I have no desire to give it another attempt, really.
>>
>>41575945
>Yes, but please also squat.

That's one of the reasons i don't want to do the full 5/3/1 routine. My squat is my weakest lift by far (mainly because i just don't train legs enough) and my DL has slowed down with progressing a bit. So i'd probably be better of doing squats 2 times a week and try to make some progress with my DLs through 5/3/1
>>
>>41576134
Iktf, I've been posting here for a long time, and now its strange to think this was actually an enjoyable general people use to spend all day posting on.

What I do now is just have it bookmarked on clover and check it once or twice a day to see if there's anything interesting going on.
After a while I've found myself checking my phone less and less.
>>
Doing SS. All my lifts are improving except my bench. I failed 65kilo for the second time today. Last week i got 5 reps of 65, but second set i failed on third or forth rep. Today i only got 3 reps on my first set.

Why is this happening? Bench is my worst lift
>>
>>41576190
I think you should add some auxiliary work such as dumbbell bench, close-grip bench or dumbbell/cable flies.
Perhaps you should chose one and do it after your session for 3-5 sets of 10-12 reps, or however you see fit.
>>
>>41576137
Stats? What are you doing for squats?
>>41576183
It's sad, really. And I know I can't invest myself into upping the quality significantly. Even the OPs are nothing now, while we used to have long arguments over which vids were better to have in them.
>>
Can someone explain to a noob why it's better to opt for 2.5kg weekly to "prevent stalling"?

Hopefully I can gain 40kg on each lift in 4 months.
>>
>>41576269
I know, I've been here almost as long as you. It was always going to end, I just didn't know some Brazilian hobbit will kill it.
>>
>>41576280
Where does it say that?
Postpones stalling, rather.
>>41576283
It's nice that we haven't had any tranny and cocklusting talk since the Raffocalypse tho. Maybe threads are recovering.
>>
>>41576325
That's true, perhaps Sean saved this general after all.
>>
>>41576213
Are you sufficiently knowledgeable to give this advice?
>>
>>41576280
>Can someone explain to a noob why it's better to opt for 2.5kg weekly to "prevent stalling"?
Better compared to what? 2,5 kg progress session to session?
>>
>>41576343
I have 4 years of lifting experience. I'm nothing special, but I have experience.
>>
>>41576347
Yeah, 2.5 vs 5 weekly.
Is it a sort of thing where it doesn't make a difference over the long run?
>>
>>41576330
Was he the one to find out? Thought for sure it was someone else.
>>41576366
What program?

>>41576388
Someone was trappy posting and Sean noticed trappys Instagram in broken English, then him and some people from discord did some detective work and found more evidence to suggest raf was trap.
Raffy went full damage control and basically outed himself.

I think Prutus (Paul) confirmed it was him in the end
>>
>>41576269
JP's bench video should be in there - he sucks at benching but I really like his setup.
Thought I had it down, but his cues still improved my setup noticeably.
>>
>>41576366
The benefits I can think of with slower progress(2,5 kg) is
a) it takes longer before you stagnate, meaning that you work with weights that are not maximally heavy for you for a longer time. This allows for better form in most repetitions and decreases risk of overuse injury.
b) It's mentally easier to progress 2,5 every week than it is to sometimes progress 5 and stall more often.

The differences should be small though since the differences in weight isn't that huge.

Ive given up lads. After 3 yers of lifting I just barely have 300 wilks and dont look like I lift.

Tried tracking calories to bulk, came out just gaining fat. Im a manlet with a high pitched voice, so I think I just have bad genetics. Not everyone can make it.
>>
>>41576280
add another 2.5kilo, its heavier but manageable. After your sets are done you know you will be able to add another 2.5 the next workout. And you know you will also be able to get another 2.5 on the workout after that. And on and on and on it goes because there is no breaks on the gain train.

Add 5kilo, its heavy as fuck, you are really struggling. You barely got the reps done. You wonder if you will be able to add anything on your next workout because that was hard. You get to your next workout, and you was right. You where not able to add more weights. Which means on the next workout you have to try again what you failed on this workout. And maybe you fail that time as well so you even have to go lower then that. But had you stayed with only 2.5 you wouldn't have had to deload and fail two times and then deload.
>>
>>41576439
I've been lifting longer and have a 260 wilks
Don't give up. If yours like me, you didn't train with enough volume and you're just too small.

Switch to high volume bodybuilding if you need a break and come back to getting stronger in 6 months. Get over wanting to be strong for a while.
>>
>>41576406
Actually a bit surprising that he did that. Thought he loved the little man.
>>41576413
Haven't seen it tbH. I'm all for getting back to real OPs again tho, with the website and proper OP pics.
>>41576439
If you really are a GDE, keep building your work capacity so you can lift with higher volumes and higher frequencies than most people. "Normal" programs don't have the volume you need.
>>
>>41573804
can you link me a vid where louie simmons does his math
>>
>>41576487
>If you really are a GDE, keep building your work capacity so you can lift with higher volumes and higher frequencies than most people. "Normal" programs don't have the volume you need.
I literally did Smolov and Sheiko and made gains from neither
>>
>>41576509
I'd guess you either weren't ready, or are in need of more.

But there's nothing wrong with giving up and finding something that you like more.
>>
guys what's a good assistance for quads? how good are lunges?
>>
>>41576566
do you mean assistance for squats?

I like front squats and high-bar paused
>>
>>41576584
i tried front squats and i sprained my wrist doing them :(
>>
>>41576598

>>
>>41576614
