2018 we had a squat thread, goal 10,000,000. We got almost 4,500,000 that year if I remember right. This year, all free weight squats count: barbell, dumbbell, kettlebell, water bottles, bricks, backpack full of books, concrete plates, heavy pole, or anything you've got to squat. Just weigh it...

Alright so this where I'm inexperienced at when it comes to lifting. After 2 weeks of hitting the weights hard at 6 weekly sets, full body 3x a week split, progress is looking like it's about to come to a halt. I've made rapid progress on every single lift adding weight and reps left and right very...

Hey, i need advice. Im bulking, but im still doing cardio (steady state running, 30 minutes daily or every other day).

My gym opened back up and had a nice resolutioner deal, so here I am. It's been 5 years since I lifted and about a year since I've been in the gym at all. My autism will surely make these posts erratic and hard to follow, but there will be gains. Initial goals are to lose a ton of fat...

https://peerj.com/articles/10663/ It's a systematic review published last month without a meta-analysis. In the introduction they walk thorough the history of auto-regulation, then they go through 15 studies that utilize various methods and discuss pros/cons of them in the discussion. It's dry...

Hi guys, I’ve been training for a year now and saw some real gains in the first few months but they’ve stopped dead for around 2-3 months now. I have changed over to a lighter weight but longer TUT plan of 8-10 by 5, will this help me get out of the plateau? The 2-3 month period I was pushing...

Thoughts?

Hi guys I've kept on breaking rep PRs each and every workout for the last few months(5-10+ reps sets and even 15-20 reps sets) on big exercises which I perform in a way that redirects tension on the desired tissue (I.E. I don't bench press with the exact form that allows me to move the most weight...
