Hell of a bump. I have the OG and use it as an accessory on volume bench days. I like it a lot.

There are a bunch of different techniques. Most cycles have a one-time-a-week "refeed" or high carb day. For me, strict lchf works best for a cut. Once I'm done cutting, I add carbs back every day...

Yes

If you're just getting started it really doesn't matter. Find one close that matches how you train. My experience has actually been that backyard feds have smoother and more enjoyable meets than...

I don't know if they're "effective" for crossover athletes, train your core better than anything else ever, or if the ability to do then has any correlation to any other strength abilities. I just...

The most efficient and least stressful way to move a bar is directly in line with the force you're exerting. If youre pushing "through your heels" then the most ideal bar path is directly above that....

Google powerbuilding programs. Pick one. High volume, high intensity with lots of accessory work. Any of them would be better than what you're doing.

Slow your walkout. Bar path looks OK, so lean isn't a huge huge deal. It's still a thing, though. Focus on breaking at the hips before your knees and I think the lean will sort itself out.

Knee wraps and knee sleeves have very different purposes. I have healthy (relatively) knees, and wraps are excruciating and not something I can do every day. I love using sleeves. I would say they're...

Normal bench by a significant amount.

5/3/1 sucks if you're looking for motivation to start back up. I had to take a month off for moving across the country, work obligations, and time to buy/build a home gym. I picked Texas Method to...

100% opinion based on zero facts:

Novice: medium volume, medium intensity. Build a solid strength foundation.

Intermediate: High volume, medium intensity. Build as much as you ca on that...

ATG is useful for some sports. However... there's research that shows if you're not training for strength sports specifically or ascetics (you're a sprinter or football player or whatever) squats...

Depends on what you mean by "strength standards". If it's for Internet bragging rights, do whatever makes you feel good.

If it's a powerlifting competition (generalizing for "most" federations),...

Anybody going USAPL Virginia state's next month? I'm expecting my second kid the week before, but I'd at least like to go as a spectator.

I have a deadlift day...

There's a super easy way to find out.

Your knees come forward waaaay too much for such a low bar squat. In addition to the mobility and accessory stuff everyone else has mentioned, box squats can help you focus on keeping the shins...

Came in to say a) not DOMS (the D is there for a reason) and b) ride a bike. Just get the blood flowing in the affected muscles will do amazing things for recovery. I see that's all been covered. So...

That's almost as ambiguous (and as undefined) as "I just wanna get jacked, bruh."

What's your current body composition (height, weight, body fat %), where do you want it to be? How quickly do you...
