    Keep bulking, and utilize those puberty gains. At 150 lbs you still got tons of room for growth. Just take your time and don't get fat. As you get bigger the same bodyfat will look different when you...

    Something I like to do is to do multiple sets of pull ups while hanging on the whole time. Let go once your forearms can't hold on.

    You can also do a back off set at the end of your deadlifts with...

    1)Chalk
    2)Belt
    3)Clips (I hate when the plates move on the deadlift or rows)


    Get them whenever you want.

    Knee sleeves are mainly for knee warmth and don't really add anything to the weight...

    I can pull about 335 DOH and can probably pull about 540-550 mixed at the moment if I max. My grip strength sucks, but I've been working on it. When I see dudes pulling 405 DOH like nothing it makes...

    I had the same thing when I started wide stance squatting. I think the reason it's hurting is because you're letting your knees cave in due to weak adductors or abductors. Go into a wide stance squat...

    If you're cutting and want a really good food to add to your diet that is delicious and cheap, get beans. Black beans or Pinto beans are the best IMO. I like black beans better mainly due to them...

    I think by 365 lbs they mean those thick ass 5 lbs bumper plates with a 2.5 the same size as a normal 25 lbs plate. Is it even possible for a crossfitter to deadlift 365x25?

    I don't have a back day because I train back just about every day. I do deadlifts before or after squats and I almost always superset some chin ups and pull ups in there. I do just fine.

    Got it. Makes perfect sense. I'm used to just eating when I feel hunger while disregarding my training, but this seems like the way to go so I can perform best.

    I've heard of carb cycling, but never looked into it. I thought it was just something bodybuilders did to moderate their water weight or something. I'll check it out.
