>/fit is bullying me again for not having an aesthetic upper body

help me guys

>>42729163
lmoa this is the fate of wide grip benchers. I keep telling you to only do close grip but no one listens

>>42729171
B-but i bench medium grip

>>42729184
Oh so you're just weak. No surprise you're not aesthetic.

>>42728893
62kg ohp
103kg bench
145kg squat
160kg deadlift

>>42729202
BW?

>>42729202
Come back when you close grip bench 140kgs I promise you will look good.

>>42729171
this tb h

dont know why you guys think cutting rom is a good idea when it comes to muscle size. Well it might just be an ego thing

>>42729259
81kg

>>42729171
>benching to look good
Leave plg

>>42729663
Maybe if you developed some muscles you would bench more than teenage girls. Wide grip is only good for competition, other than preparing for meet you should always do close grip.

>>42729663
>>42729678
izley izley izley u neber lern

>>42729624
I reckon you're heavy enough to progress faster than every 6 weeks. Maybe if you were a weight class lower. Do TM first w/ nuckols 3x int bench instead of the bench/OHP in TM.

>>42729678
>>42729663
Barbells for aesthetics is a waste of time though.

>>42729711
>nuckols 3x int bench

what's that? sorry: newbie

>>42729750
Google 28 free programs.

>>42729744
No one talks about some bitchy aesthetics. You need fucking muscles to get strong no matter how much you cheat at the lift more muscles will always allow you to get stronger.

>>42729775
this guy >>42729663 from >>42729171 who replied to >>42729163 mentioning aesthetics.

>doing TM 4-day u/l split
>wanting to use nuckols 3x bench

how??

>>42729864
You don't. Either that or you train 5 days a week ULULU.

>>42729864
2x upper/1x lower/1x bench+lower.
wow that was hard.

>>42729870
that would mean benching two days in a row tho...

does nuckols 2x bench int have enough volume at to drive progress?

>>42729884
monday - lower/ tuesday - upper/ thursday - full/ saturday - upper
wew that was haaaaaard

>>42729884
>does a lifting program which exists have enough program to be a program

Yeah, probably.

I'm at 1/2/3/4 idk if I'm dumb but sheiko hasn't been doing much for me. I prefer higher intensity less volume. Anyone got any suggestions? Also anyone got a link to juggernaut? People have been suggesting it to me.

>>42729895
the whole point with TM is that even if you bench twice a week its not enough volume, duh

>>42729900
Have you looked at nuckols 2x int? Pretty sure it's not called TM.

>>42729899
>I'm at 1/2/3/4
>lets do advanced program for elite roiders
Are you retarded?

>>42729911
Would TM be better

>>42729911
Yes. That's why I'm asking for advice from the same retards who said to do sheiko.

>>42729917
If you don't like it don't do it. Some people prefer submaximal work, some people prefer sets to failure. You do you boo.

>>42729922
I'm a failure kinda guy, you got any programs in mind or should I just keep at what I've been doing?

>>42729915
everything would be better, you can linear probably still do beginner routines with those lifts.
>>42729917
You believed raffy right? No one here ever suggested to do sheiko for beginner early intermediate lifters. Sheiko was always supposed to be last resort program when nothing else works.

anon today is in a shitty mood, has to bully everyone on /plg/

>>42729932
I am in pretty shitty mood, but I only bully retards. For some reason that's almost everyone here today.

what do I do when texas method stops working but my lifts are too shit to justify moving out of intermediate

>>42729929
Reminder that 1/2/3/4 at -66 is higher than your current wilks

>>42729928
Nuckols 3x int bench plus the 3 day variant of TM. Don't be like the other retard in the thread who wants to do UL. The advantage of TM U/L is you get more upper body work in, which isn't relevant if you swap out the upper body work in the first place.

>>42729929
You'd be surprised how many people suggested it 5 months ago. Granted I went from 225 315 405 to 255 365 475. But I felt like as a 17 year old (plz no ban) I have enough test to achieve more

>>42729948
you have all my envy for being 17 yo...
really feeling like shit now

>>42729939
>330 wilks
>he thinks he's advanced lifter now
lmoa nice try retard.
>>42729948
It was still mostly suggested for more advanced lifters and those were also raffy orbiters. Plenty of actually knowledgeable people never suggested sheiko for someone fresh from linear progression.

>>42729948
>Granted I went from 225 315 405 to 255 365 475.
Why the fuck are you so fucking retarded, if you put 150 lbs on your total in one cycle then keep doing the program you fucking retard

>b-but I would've put 15000 lbs on my total with SS!
No, you just have unrealistic expectations because all you lifting knowledge comes from idiots on the internet who barely lift.

>>42729968
>150 pounds on a sub 1k total
Shit dude in 5 months i feel like I could be better.

>>42729948
If you're in a low enough weight class that's pretty good progress for one cycle. I guess if you were fat fuck you'd be early enough intermediate that you might have progressed faster doing something else but it's still progress.

>>42729962
350 is pretty much advanced for most people. You have no idea what you're talking about and you are simply making contrarian statements for the sake of it. Post your wilks

>>42729982
I'm 230 6'2 so pretty fatty.

>>42729982
>350 is pretty much advanced for most people
lmoa that's funny because I'm actually at 352 and I still make weekly progress on all my lifts. Not like it matter because neither you nor I have any wilks since we haven't competed and wilks is only valid for competition lifts.

>>42729989
You probably shouldn't have done sheiko. IMO you should probably cut and run a hypertrophy phase to maintain muscle, in order to set yourself up for a clean bulk and steady progress afterwards running something like TM with 3x int bench, but that's just me buying into Israetel's stuff, maybe you don't need to cut at all.

>>42729997
If you're deloading it's not linear progression, it's periodisation. Count the weeks between your PRs and I doubt you'll find that you're going at 5/10lbs on upper/lower per week. Realistically it's probably half that or a bit less. I could be wrong, you could be a talentchad and you could be shitting on every strong lifter in the general in 3 years time, but most people aren't talentchads.

>>42730016
Nah I'm starting to cut now. Marching band and wrestling are going on which means a fuck ton of cardio. Hoping to get down to 200 by january. Appreciate the advice tho.

>>42729884
>>42729864
UxFxULx

U=bench day 1 or 3 (heavy)
L=TM squats and deads
F=TM squats and deads & bench day 2 between them (light)
>>42729869
Brainlet

>>42729975
At that pace you would put over 150 kg on your total in a year. If you stay at 230 lbs that would mean you increase your wilks by 100 points in a year. How is that not good for any lifter?

>>42730039
I mean, I doubt I'll stay at that pace, would be nice tho. But idk i think I just have my head filled with advice from dyels. I just wanna be one of the best lol.

>>42730049
The dyels are the ones exaggerating how much you can gain, but you probably could have gotten further on a weekly DUP program rather than a 3 month cycle.

>>42730049
>I just wanna be one of the best
Don't listen to isley then xd.

Who here too lazy to warm-up for deadlifts?

I just do some squats, then 3 plate, 4 plate, 5 plate.

>>42730250
If I deadlift after squats I get lazy but not that much I still start at 1pl8

why am I still so weak

>>42730493
High neuroticism and a poor father figure

>>42730508
Hard to fix the latter but what can I do about the first

>>42730539
Hire a coach.

>>42730539

Anybody here train in the mornings?

Making the switch from 9pm's to 6:30am for better life balance. First workout is going to suck

>>42730585
I mean I do, but fuck not that early. I guess you should eat lots of carbs before sleeping or it's gonna feel like shit.

>>42730585
Most mornings before 5. It sucks.

what happened to the /plg/ disc?

>>42730699
What do you mean? If you can't join you were likely banned.

>>42730699
It's a retarded idea. There isn't enough to talk about in the general, let alone talk to these rejects for recreation.

If my sticking point on the squat is the hole and I either sink down or barely move up, is this a sign of a weak core, or bad technique? How can I fix it?

Guys one of my knees started to hurt from squatting yesterday, what do i do?

Keep the bar closer to you. You have a really obvious forward lean.

>>42731087
Stop rolling the bar into you, take time and set up properly
https://youtu.be/wYREQkVtvEc

>>42731087
Looks good to me

either my lockouts suck or I did my rackpulls wrong, because I have been feeling something in my upper back ever since

>>42731165
That's actually pretty normal, just a minor strain, give your back some rest.

>>42731173

Good thing that I have been resting for a couple of days then because my gym was closed.

Need to stop sleeping on my side though, I think it makes it worse.

BRRRRRRRSPPFFFFTTTSSSSSSSSSSPLAAT

OH my that was a rather wet Norman Khan

Sniiiiiiiiifff.. Oh my and rather.. stinky.. yes, yes, quite stinky indeed

>>42730999
Paused work. You're probably rounding your upper back too

>>42731293
Any labor day plans?

Are your lifts going up?

>>42731089

RIP

>>42731439
I snapped my SI joint so I haven't been able to squat or deadlift for like the past 6-8 weeks

>>42731344
I'm rounding lower back, not upper. I don't really understand how to feel a stretch reflex; I always end up rounding my lower back to hit even further below depth. I used to round my upper back but I fixed it by bringing my grip in close and keeping elbows down.

>>42731459
That sucks.

I don't get injured, so I feel really bad for you.

Do you think it's because ph3 is a hack program?

>>42731469
Post video. Your whole back is probably weak as fuk

>>42731488

When your back rounds a lot of the time it's because you're in a stronger position with your back doing more work, meaning your back is stronger.

>>42731488
Don't have video but it's definitely not my back, my squat is 110kg as of today and my DL max is an easy 160 as of a month ago. I avoided squats for a while and now I'm finding a new problem killing my progress every time I hit a significant PR. It's getting pretty frustrating but I'm up from an 80kg squat back when my DL was 150 so I'm getting somewhere. Long femurs too so my end goal is to have a squat 80-85% of my deadlift.

>>42731480
I was actually making steady gains but then I got greedy and tried fast tracking it by skipping the light week which is exactly when the snapped shit happened

It was going so well too with no other injuries this year until then

>>42730999
>>42731529
weak quads

its embarrassing how many people here have weak quads

>>42731050
Anyone?
My stance is pretty narrow, could it be that?

>>42731576
There's a lot of things that could go wrong with the knee in a lot of ways. Simply saying "knee pain" doesnt tell anyone anything. Describe it.

How does it feel. Where does it hurt. What movements trigger it.

>>42731561
I've already spent the last month or so fixing that, I went from a completely bent over good morning 105 to a clean 110 where the bar stays over mid foot and I don't lose balance at all. I've been doing barbell lunges twice a week on squat days and front squats on deadlift days.

>>42731529
>>42731511
Nevermind, it isn't a back weakness, it's a body weakness.

>>42731543
Chin up, leaf, a 4 plate squat and 5 plate deadlift can wait a little longer.

>>42731480
wut is this ph3 program

>>42731688
Congratulations on finding out you're the second weakest person on /plg/.

>>42731704
Program by layne norton, notorious drug cheat with a horrendous snapped up squat.

Too much intensity volume, and includes blood flow restriction training with ligatures.

The ultimate meme.

>>42731721
>Program by layne norton
Stopped reading there tb h that alone says more than enough

>>42731717
Hello, that title belongs to me actually

t. 280 wilks, 4 years "powerlifting"

>>42731587
It hurts when i go down stairs and when stand up. also when i go down a little for a quaterish squat.

it's a sharp pain in the lower part of the knee

>>42731728
That's an impressively poor effort, anon. How did you manage that?

>>42730999
Is it possible that I'm just cheating the weight up by divebombing and is this indicative of a weakpoint I can target?

>>42731752
I have literally no idea.
I posted this months ago and my wilks hasn't even improved.

It seems for every lbs I add to my total I add to my bodyweight

>>42731772
Have you tried hypertrophy training? Israetel says to only bulk/cut during hypertrophy phases because otherwise there isn't enough stimulus to gain quality weight/maintain muscle.

Is the Candito six week program good?

>>42731791
I have not once in these 4 years tried bodybuilding if I am honest. I do obviously do high volume, but nothing like a bodybuilder.

Maybe I'll try it but I don't really know where to begin.

>>42731813
Just pick any PL program that has a lot of high rep accessory and main lift work. Something like 5/3/1 but not trash. Maybe create a GZCL program and make it work for you.

>>42731792
For squat and dl, yes.
It is subpar for bench though, people here usually replace it with nuckols bench 3x int med but still use the c6w upper accessories.

>>42731728
my brotber

>>42731853
Can't I just simply adjust the bench sets/reps and add a little bit more of volume to it?

>>42731976
Why adjust it when you can use another bench program entirely and get better results?

>>42731698
Holy moly dat projection KEK

>>42731994
Because I also want to get better at squat/dl

>>42731996
I just assumed those were your lifts. How far off am I?

>>42731813
You should join me and try PHAT. I just started it last week. I'm a 345 wilks Trex and need a better upper body.

>>42732028

Trip on Chadlex.

>>42732028
PHAT isn't even a program. It's a very loose template at best. If he's been training for 4 years and has a 280 wilks chances are he has no idea how to turn a loose template into something that will result in progress.

>>42732006
Well you would be doing c6w for dl and squat and nuckols for bench

>>42731087
Your bar path is not straight. It almost goes like an S, its supposed to be |

>>42732006
I don't think you understand. You take away only the bench/ohp work in c6w, and REPLACE it with benching from nuckols' program without touching any of the lower body work. So you're doing both at the same time.

>>42732074
You can see it comes off his shins and moves forward, right as the bar speed slows down. The rest of the curve is just him correcting it.

How fucked is my squat lads?

I've been feeling lower back pain recently and I think it's due to my squat.

>>42732204
lern how to brace fucko

>>42732204

squeeze glutes, contract abs, ssqueeze shoulders. You want to be full straight locked in top position, you have weak knees in top position. Slight hip hinge to have bar overmidfoot at the top (lean foward a bit but with squeezed glutes) than go down

its not that bad, shit like that is literally 5 min to get right

Why anon-kun :3

>>42732313

>reddit

you played yourself

>>42732204
It looks like you have a very wide stance, that is not necessary. Have you read Starting Strength? Have you watched ripps vids on form? if not, DO IT

>>42732204
You seem to start the descent with your knees.

As other people have mentioned you gotta brace more. Get tighter. A cue that worked for me was to think "up" on the descent, feels like my legs and core are braking hard on the way down and it gets me mega tight. Like, you should be so tight that 5 squats with no barbell should have you need catch your breath a bit.

>>42732286
Line your feet up on something?

On that note, when I squat with my feet inline, by left heel always comes up off the ground at the bottom of the squat, and it feels like I'm pushing through the ball of my foot on that foot.

If I slightly stagger my stance with my left food a bit in front of my right, then I'm firmly on my heels for both feet.

Is this a mobility issue or is one leg slightly longer than the other?

I'm doing TM but as everyone else I would like more upper body volume and personally I'd like more deadlifts. I need to work on my technique and a 5rm once per week doesn't really let me get any practice in. Any modifications I can make or other routines I should try that lets me have some deadlift volume?

>>42732370

the bridge (RTS based program that SS coaches move to from TM), add more upper body work

>>42732386
Could someone give us a direct link? <3

>>42732443

http://www.barbellmedicine.com/the-bridge/

comes with a tedious e-book but the program looks decent.

>>42732486
aight, thanks my nigga!

>>42732386
Should I just as well attempt maxes next week if imma switch from TM to the Bridge because it seems pretty useful to have fresh maxes for it.

I haven't done RPE based training before either. Any advice for that?

https://discord.gg/tpsJ7S

>>42732286
who is this

>>42732653
since we're talking intermediate routines how's c6w+3x int bench med compared to The Bridge as discussed previously

>>42732724
I dont actually think that anyone here has actually ran the bridge

>>42732724
I'm not really familiar with the bridge, I never ran it and I skimmed over it like one time. I can say that if you are an early intermediate, c6w is one of the best lower programs you can run. First cycle I went from 330x1 squat and 430x1 sumo dead to 320x5 and 420x5, respectively.

>>42732724
>>42732570

anyone got a spreadsheet of this?

>>42732773

>>42732751
whew lad

do I risk gain and pain to run a program to be the first to tell /fit/ how it went

>>42732772
I'd consider myself in the later half of the intermediate stage. Does that change your recommendation?

>>42732807

can't find it

>>42732556

RPE isnt about maxes, you dont have strict % than, you just go on what feels about it today jsut dont get GDE on it. Push hard. It allows to maximize good days and get rest at bad days.

>>42732814
Probably not desu, boardshorts successfully ran c6w and he's moderately advanced. And what makes you think you're an mid to late intermediate with four months of strength training in your belt? Specific programs not working or?

kek

google c6w then nuckols bench

they are two separate programs

>>42732841
GDE?

I might die during this run and I just want you lads to know cardio wasn't worth it

So why nuckol's bench with candito's routine. What's wrong with Candy's bench?

>>42732923
not enough volume I think

>>42732937
Do I just run it independently of Candito's progression and just do day 1,2,3 etc on whatever days Candito's would have me bench? Cause I'm reading Candito's and I'm feeling pretty sold on it.

>>42732891

>mmuuuhhh it was already hard pretty sure its rpe 9 huuh, same with 8

>>42733064

rpe 9 is when you bearly stand up and can do 1 more but it will be hard fight

>>42733021
First two weeks of C6w has three bench days, which would work obviously with Nuckol's 3x bench.

But week 3 and 4 has two bench days, week 5 1. Do I change to 2x week for those or what do I do?

>>42733191
>>42733021

Read >>42730035

>>42733191
Just run the program as you did before. I personally did two full body days with one upper day instead of doing a UL split but either should work.

I work out in the morning and eating beforehand makes me feel sick, sometimes I'll throw up if the workout is intense enough.

So I like to take my 4 scoops afterwards and spend the rest of the day basking in dat glow knowing my muscles are at an all-you-can-eat buffet of protein.

Sauce on the doggo?

>>42734124
eating one donut will do fuckall except suck the blood from your muscles to your stomach

>>42734203
bioscience.

The donut will increase his muscle glycogen storage, thus allowing him to complete more reps.

>>42734203
Nah, some simple carbs definitely will help a bit. It won't be a massive difference, but it helps ime.

>>42734223
>>42734237
donut is filled with fat will slow your digestion bigtime not sure why people think a donut is just sugar

>>42734247

that's why I put my pwo in a soda instead of water :^)

>>42734247
>a 43 gram donut will slow your digestion big time
Lol. saturated fat is used for hormone production, thus gives you a minor test boost after your workout.

According to google, a typical 43g chocolate donut has 11g of fat and 22g of carbohydrates, 11g of which are sugars.

So, I would say its not all fat, unlike you.

>>42734292
my point is people undervalue the fat aspect while it is 1/3rd of the content

eleiko powerlifting bar any good?

>>42734343
How about you just admit defeat next time instead of trying to shift goal posts?

If you're gonna switch routines and don't have any recent maxes to go off should you just take one or two training sessions to test maxes or go with most recent estimates

new routine is based off 1rm percentages. I don't have any decently fresh maxes. So I'm wondering if I should either just whip up some humble estimates or cautiously test my maxes.

Looks like he's trying to take weight off his weaker side (ie I'd bet money he's a right hander). It's probably subconscious.

>took time off of lifting for personal reasons + injuries while trying to pick it back up
>Got fat
>Came back successfully
>Got 85-95% of my strength back, depending on the lift
>still fat, probably like 260

1rms are 520/300/545.

Looking to get less fat, and either not lose strength or get stronger. Recommendations for my approach? Anyone had experience with this tire of thing?

never realized i tilt like that until i looked at the footage. i am right hander, that video, just like most of the others, are over a year old. i fixed all the stuff except for the hollow back

Why does this general attract literal retards...

>>42734966
just cut the carbohydrates, throw protons in your face and hover 300 calories under your needs.
enjoy not building any new muscle due to the lack of carbohydrates

Ive been thinking about getting wrist wraps, and after hurting my wrist on a bailed front squat I decided to finally buy them.
What should I get plg?

>>42734966
A bunch of low rep sets with decent frequency. Medium to high rep sets on a cut suck balls. Something like sheiko or Hepburn would work

>>42735069

I use inzer gripper wraps, they're nice.

>>42734986

If you give more than 250€ for a city bike you are a cuck
Can't speak about mountain or racing bikes and other currencies

what do you lads think causes hips to rise early, core strength, leg strength, back strength. cucks keep telling me different shit

>>42735557
Poor set up

Will squat increase my deadlift and vice versa?

Deadlift hurts my lower back and flexibility isnt the issue I'm extremely flexible, was thinking I just need more muscle around my core and that made me think squating would be the answer.

>>42735557
Quads are too weak at the minimum, weak core could also play a part. However you could also have the bar too far forward, past your mid foot.

>>42735579
Squat helps deadlift way more than deadlift helps squat

>>42735604
Thanks

>>42735579
>>42735604
I squatted 160kg before dead lifting 140kg so I'd like to interject for a moment here.

Just whatever McGill says to strengthen core, then train normally.

Its utterly pointless dropping one lift to work on another, and you'll endlessly be cycling between each lift trying to get them to a level you deem "proportionate"

>>42734737

He doesn't train and doesnt roid, is the size of a backhoe(pic related) and can deadlift 7 fucking 100lb bags of cement stacked on top of each other straight off the goddamned ground.

why does it seem like everyone has these things except me

im not 100% stimulants are great for distance running, may just be dmaa

depends what type of inhaler and i dont know if there needs to be an accumulation phase to reach peak blood levels

I'm not running that far, just a 2.4k. A competitive time would be 8 minutes, average time would be 10 minutes.

you have a form problem with your bench
i dont care if you think you dont, you do. go over every single part of the movement VERY carefully. use that mind-muscle connection and make sure youre activating the muscles that need to be activated.

and for gods sake pull yourself together

>>42735911
Bench 3x a week with incredibly high volume. Insane volume.

Like 5x10 every session and make sure you increase the weight each week too.

Hello

Is there any way to responsibly own a dog while working full time and training? Other than bringing the dog to work.

It just feels unfair to leave the animal alone for like nine or ten hours a day. I know they have dog walker services and stuff, but not all dogs will like that.

I like dogs, but I don't want to get one and have him just be bored all day. Feels bad.

>>42734772

How "not fresh" are they? A couple of months? Six months? If it's not too long, you can just use the old ones and count any extra as a small bonus.

>>42734922

RIP

>>42734966

Whatever training got you there is probably fine, to be honest. Slower cutting is easier.

>>42735557

It's really individual, to be honest. I think it's most often week quads or just bad form.

Thanks, I guess.

>having a girlfriend who doesn't work and is able to handle the large dogs I like (akita, great dane, rottweiler, etc.)

I'm gonna need that luck. That shit is expensive, and the small Asian women who tend to like me might not even be heavier than the dog.

>>42736612
>a girl who doesn't have to work
I think you'll find they'll be lining up for that opportunity haha
Women are good with taking care of things so I am sure a dog isn't too much to handle really

Honestly though, just wait until your situation improves and let things fall into place naturally.

>>42736649

Well, I just mean it's hard to pull off financially. Even on my (future) engineering salary, a one-income household isn't easy to make happen nowadays.

Waiting is rough, man. Those dogs and Chinese women are so cute.

At least I have lifting.

My dog, a labrador, is used to and wants his daily ~8 hours in his outside dog house/area, and can deal with ~12 hours if necessary. Regularly being alone more than a work-day is kinda mean to the dog though, so you either bring it with you to work or training or don't get one at all. Don't be one of those that get a dog that ends up being neglected. They're pack animals and even independent dogs need company.
