bump

A few months ago I had a lower back injury doing pause squats (wasn't linked to form or careless, but rather inherent issues). MRI showed lower back disc protrusions.

Now I am slowly starting to...

Form is really lacking. If you use dumbbells - you might as well go deeper. Your elbows are flared.
Calculations are entirely wrong.

Weight is good, bu this somewhat reminds me of people...

Hello,

haven't done this in a while and thought I'd get a few second opinions.

Please critique/advise.

Thanks

Thanks you everyone! Great advice throughout.



So would you say a complete reset is not needed? Maybe just dial back 5-15kg?

I do reset/deload ocasionally, and 5/3/1 is somewhat based on...

It's cool, man. Each have their own opinion.

Even deficits will be a reset to a point where it's with perfect form. Tested it yesterday and I was able to do about 120kg with perfect form.

And I'm sorry, but that second part sounds like a...

Hi,

Basically I've been on 5/3/1 and increasing my deadlift but my form now is pretty horrible (I didnt notice it get out hand until I filmed myself). This only happens on top sets, but still not...

You'll never know your limits unless you try and push them every so often.

That doens't mean going to failure on every set ofc, but it does mean sometimes going for that rep that you think you...

Don't use collars.

Slide the weights off.

If you think the recovery of your legs won't be disruted by working the rest of your body continuously - you are in for an unpleasant surprise.

But more than that - the question is why do this?...

To all your latest questions

Overall leg development - high or low bar squats are both great choices.

Power Cleans are there because it's a more power/strength type movement. I personally...

^ lol and this...

Make sure to do Bosu Ball Squats nexts, I hear they are really good for your stabilisers and overall development.

As others said - on off days you take days off and rest.

As for 15% - it's really up to personal preferences and people. Some like to bulk to 20% body fat in a few months and then cut. If you...

15% is a little too much. 5% is a safer bet and you will essentially be doing a clean bulk and look into the long-term.

You can of course bulk at +15%, but you will get a little fat and need to...

Uhm... chins do not hammer biceps harder than curls... Curls is an isolation exercise that targets only biceps when chins use biceps as a secondary muscle (to your back)

Anyway, do the program as...

never had that problem

my gym has one of those captains chairs with bosy ball as the back - I actually do leg raises after deadlifts and they feel great.

1) AllPros is a good bet. It's the go-to program for beginner (in the stickies). ICF5x5 is also solid
Regardless of what you choose- make sure it's a full body program 3 times a week

2) I would...

Pick first 2 if you want to increase your lifts more at the beginning (as wel as of course build some muscle).

Pick 3rd if you want a better all round bodybuilding routine.

In my experience - a butt wink is usually a case of poor flexibility. It is clearly there, if you watch the second video - at the bottom posiiton your lower back rounds
