If I'm doing squats at the rep ranges for the upper body (sets of 6 and final set of 6+) should I still use 1 rep over 6 as a 10lbs jump? Obviously limiting your single session increase is critical...

Would it be fine to switch my squats to 1x6+ and 3x6? Also, deadlifts 1x6+ and 2x6? Now that I am in season, it seems like working up to a 1RM would not be wise. Thanks for the help.

This is friggin intense. I'd be really happy to get at least 4 weeks. Rarely am I about to fall asleep after lifting but this wears you out so much. First arm pump ever was nice though. Day 1 ✅

I see where you are coming from but I am going to give it a shot.

I actually considered saying that haha. The whole point is to give it a shot. I know what people have said and I am completely ignoring it. I deadlifted 450x2 on Friday and I bench 185. I like the...

Will update in 6 weeks. I'm a beginner for sure but I have pretty decent strength. I'm going to focus on upper body because my deadlift is almost 2.5x greater than my bench press. It'll be fun, it'll...

Train legs and back like you've trained your bench and everything will be alright. 245 should be 315 in 2 months max.

10,000 hours 😐

Have you done speed work with the bench press before? If not, I wouldn't be surprised if you were able to gain at least 55lbs in 3 months. You won't get there in 3 months with traditional training.

Have you been to the dmv?

No way this is real. No way.

Lat pulldown is a bit more difficult because the machine is in 20lbs increments and I don't know how much those add on stacks on weigh. Maybe they are 5lbs.

Reppin old mill

So I found a cool program on the Internet and gave it a try. It utilizes light weight (60%, 65%, and 75% of 1RM) for 5 sets of 5 reps and you lift the weight as fast as possible every rep. It was...

Totally honest take: You probably don't run a 4.70-4.80 40. I know everyone claims they run a 4.7 and numbers in that neighborhood, but most people are lucky to be at a 4.80-4.95. Just keep working...

So I can throw a college size football faster than the NFL combine average, I'm pretty smart (32 ACT), and I'm improving as an athlete (31in SVJ and high 4s in the 40). If I can throw the football in...

I deadlift 450 brah. #SAD

Just wondering what respectable weight for this movement is? With my focus on speed and lower body power, right now I've progressed very quickly in weight. I'm at 270lbs now and trying to balance out...

I'm looking to improve upper body strength and aesthetics. I'm willing and able to lift any and everyday of the week. I haven't trained my upper body much and it definitely shows. My back is my best...

What should my bench frequency look like? More is better?
