Can someone explain to me how to "drive the floor away" on the deadlift? At around 315 I noticed my form is becoming **** because I'm using my lower back and arms too much to start the pull. I...

I get what you're saying, but I'm honestly not sure how to come up with a good progression scheme, as every program I've done in the past has been linear progression with static reps/sets.

For the...

I'm still messing around with how to structure my back day now that I'm off 5x5. I'd like to incorporate the following into my back training:

Deadlifts
Pendlay Rows
Wide Lat Pulls
Pull Ups...

I'm thinking of doing a very simple 5x5 PPL program. Has anyone done something like this after a SS / Stronglifts type of program with success?

Push:
Bench 5x5
Military shld barbell press 5x5...

Guys,

Take a look at my back day. I've been doing this for a few months now and noticing pretty good gains, but want to see if there's anything else I can incorporate.

1. Deadlifts - 3x5 (2-3...

Two quick questions:

1. Does anyone mind linking the excel that was posted for this program, I can't find it. Thanks.

2. Can I sub in box squats for regular squats?

Yes, the logical thing to do would be stick to coffee, but I do get a much better lift from using a PWO so if I can find a product without the side effects I experience, I'm all for it.

Thanks for...

I've tried a number of different PWOs and while I usually have a great lift, by the end of my work day I'm absolutely dying from the crash / jitters / blurred vision (this is the worst one) / mood...

Basically I'm looking for a 4-day split with squat/bp/ohp/dl as a ~3/5x5 for the first exercise and then a good...

Trying to perfect my descent - when you guys start descenting via the hips, are you letting the knees spread naturally on their own or also forcing them out? I know you have to spread them out on...

EDIT - Answered my own question

Does anyone have any logs from the 3 months? Also, on the two upper body days, what assistance did you guys do after 5x10 BP/OHP? I'm guessing it's not even going...

Bumping this thread -

Programs seems interesting. What do you guys think of switching to this from 8 months of a modified SL 5x5? Or is this still to advanced for someone who has been seriously...

Yeah I stopped doing box squats where I relax, lean back and then explode. I tend to keep same level of tightness and only "tap" the box before going back up. I don't even know if I'd actually call...

So I searched and haven't been able to find an answer:

I started box squatting after the suggestion of some members here to fix my form (around the time I first started lifting so was doing around...

The tallest bench hooks in my new gym relative to my arm length are too short. I feel like I have to lift the weight up and out of the rack and can't just slide it out like I could at my old gym,...

I'm coming off ~half a year of a all compound 5x5 and am looking for a new routine for the next 6-8 weeks before going back to a 5x5 again. I'm going to give this program a go starting next week. ...

Make sure you get the powder that has animal fat in it. The more exotic the animal the bigger the gains.

Long-term health effects? Most definitely YES

Will having a few cigs a week somehow noticeably hinder hypertrophy? NO
