You won't get an exact number, just generalizations because everyone's build is going to be slightly different.

Though I gotta echo what Hammerfelt and the other guy said. I'm 5 10 and when I was...

I don't like the wording chosen for the competition. It's not major, but just because he wins a competition that not everyone in the world has access to or could possibly hear of in a reasonable...

I'd say deadlift, followed closely by cleans and any overhead pressing movement.


It's important to be able to pick stuff up off the ground, support/lower/raise things from head height or higher...

I used to think jogging was awesome. Then I trained to walk a marathon, 13-14 miles once a week. It got my calves bigger, my joints never hurt(only my feet when I didn't wear proper shoes one time)...

So......you've been working on it for 7 years, but aren't sure if it's a problem with a hobby/sport that requires high levels of concentration and energy? Well, it's easier to see when you're outside...

I would say do moderately high reps + heavy weight.

Though the best bet to build yourself a solid foundation of strength is to look into Starting Strength, Madcows or one of the other ABA BAB 5X5...

375, as many sets as we could, though form was non-existent. Had read about them the previous night, told my buddy and we both kept trying to pull more than each other. Best pain I ever felt.

This. If that doesn't work, try squats and deadlifts.

Only happened once, but late/no glasses or contacts/was rushing through my lifts.

As I've finally fully converted to using a journal and planning a week in advance(though I'm sure real vets at...

What you mean is, laughable numbers for a professional soldier often trained from a very young age and was in the service until death or retirement. They had a few hundred years where the training...

Power Clean the weight, then front squat it. I really doubt you'll see your numbers jump as fast and finding ready made programming that basically fits you will be harder, but I don't see any way to...

He'd start off promising, pull some unexpected numbers early on and then after a few months/years heading to the top, would inevitably bottom out fast.

Sure, we would talk about what potential he...

Do deep calf stretches, until your foot is also parallel with your shin - pull your body against the wall/beam you have your foot on. It won't get better overnight or even in a week or two, but if...

OP, follow this advice. I knew guys that had a solid six pack and muscle without working out anymore than I did back around 15-16. Difference is, I kept lifting, joined the military, then kept...

How often do you cycle them in, about once a month??

I'm only up to 100 additional lbs on dips, for about 6-8 reps and maybe 2 sets at that weight if I don't plan on benching or pressing for a...

I purposely chose heavy labor jobs before I finished schooling and got my current career. If you sleep enough and eat enough, it's basically getting paid to work out all day. It affected me mentally...

I threw in powercleans. Doing this exercise really helps reinforce and bring together what vets on this board always say about glutes, explosiveness throughout and using hips. I thought I had great...

Read about it, study it a bit.....everything from broscience to da shi* backed up with studies and percentages, with years of research backing it. Then use that pool of information to start guiding...

There are powerlifters in prison. I bet a few of them would do you.

Nah, see you can just point out that logically....someone whose born with one leg is not at as great a disadvantage because they've ALWAYS had one leg. He didn't suddenly lose a leg and then take up...
