Again, this is why you have safety bars in any halfway proper gym or home setup.

I would never spot someone on a squat who doesn't understand this, since that person is going to bail on the bar...

Dude as I said above, he also doesn't care if you do DLs - I don't think he's taking a major position one way or another. He likely wouldn't want you going all out on squats & DLs in the same...

Probably <5% of people you’d think to ask for a spot actually know how to properly spot a squat, and even then one spotter is not that useful in an actual emergency at a substantial weight, but if...

A single spotter for squats is generally useless unless you're lifting close to nothing - which is likely the case.



You're also interrupting someone's time at the gym when you ask to work in...

Unless you have a severe injury, it's unlikely that you need to abandon bb squats especially at the weight you're lifting. Without a form video, hard to advise otherwise except to say that you don't...

It's hard to help people with an issue they're having when they don't think there could be a problem with their programming, or they have their own theories why whatever advice you give them is...

Sounds good... if you've been on this site for 10 years and still "just starting out", I'm sure you know that in the end it's just about getting into the gym with consistency under a sensible program...

Lift under a proper novice program. Eat like a typical American. Don’t assume you have special needs, limitations or time constraints.

If you feel your workout suits your goals & preferences, have reasons for doing things the way you're doing them - and are happy with the results, then you don't need anyone's rating or opinions. ...

OP, to be clear, GBR isn’t a program like F5 where the author declares that you must run it exactly as written except for his few allowable substitutions.

I'd be more concerned with how much you're eating in general, rather than protein absorption in one sitting.

If you're not actually losing weight, you might not want to keep doing what you're...

He specifically also says you can choose a DL-leg press combo too and other substitutions. Therefore, you can incorporate them too - do whatever you want.

These "do you think it's ok?" type...

In your own questions you both acknowledge and ignore the fact that SLDL is a DL variation.

Also, he's fine if you DL on GBR. You're not necessarily supposed to do the exact same thing on the...

Anyone doing bw squats doesn't need to be doing a PPL.



You still end up with Legs then Pull halfway through the week.



It's called a Push/Pull dude. The problem is not your specific...

Each user individually owns the content in our posts, which presumably we each gave bb.com license to display via its terms & conditions.

So unfortunately, building a mirror site without...

See below in bold.

It's actually not has hard as you'd think from a leg perspective. The problem is that many people who might have strong enough legs don't also have the combination of upper body/core strength &...

I rep out the 130 lb db with goblet squats because of how annoying FS is, even when you know how to do it.

OP, some people just have trouble with FS. You can use straps if it's too awkward, but...

Not really anymore due to mercury, but I used to drain the water out, put in a little lemon juice, mayo, freshly minced onions & minced gherkins and mix it up.



I stil do this sometimes. I...

Nice, maintaining & staying injury free is definitely a good strategy - especially if you're also active outside of the gym.
