Hi, I am currently running JasonDB's novice 5x5 program and my progress is slowing down as I'm nearing an intermediate level in my lifts. I still plan on continuing his program for the time being...
I see, thanks for those numbers. When I took fish oil I tried to get around 3g EPA and 2g DHA per day but it seems like that'll be quite difficult to reach with flax seed. I think the best thing I...
thanks, but being "fish-free" isn't why I'm using flax seed. I usually use fish oil, but right now I'm stuck with what I've gotten (which is flax seed), so do you know how much Omega 3 from flax seed...
While the Omega 3 content in flax seed is quite high, I've read that it doesn't convert well to EPA and DHA. How many grams of Omega 3 from flax seed should I aim for daily?
Should I deload my deadlift if I have to take small rests (like 30 seconds or so, not just resetting grip) between the later reps in my 1x5 set in order to pull them off successfully?
A little off topic but I have a question. When doing HIIT you obviously burn more calories than you would if not doing it and therefore will have a higher TDEE. A general guideline given on this site...
Is it ok if I hit .45 grams of fat per pound bodweight on a multiple day basis as long as I'm getting at least an average of that much per day? On my workout days I've been having as little as 20...
Wow, I'm an idiot then lol I have no idea why it's in the wrong order in my saved copy. As for accessories I've added: calf raises all days, and cable lateral raises, cable incline flies, and glute...
I've been running this routine (with even more accessories than the already large number!) and seeing great strength and size gains, but one thing has been bugging me. Why are chinups done right...
When I deadlift it feels like I don't use my glutes/hamstrings at all (even when I focus on form and using lighter weight), I only feel those muscles being used when I do RDLs. For standard deadlifts...
I also stalled for a bit in my bench doing full body 3x a week until I started alternating between regular bench press and close grip bench press. It's very common for peoples' weak point in the...
I currently take 200 mg of caffeine pre-workout 3 days a week. Will I ever need to cycle off of it if i stay at this dose and frequency? What if I switch to a routine where I work out 6 days a week...
I used to do chinups, bent over concentration curls, and hammer curls for my biceps while now I do chinups, and incline curls or preacher curls as per the recommendation of my current program. I feel...
x2 This is what I do as well, although if your double overhand grip is strong enough to not be the limiting factor during your work set I'd stick with that grip.
