That's where MYO reps come in

My morning shake consists of the following...

Milk
Whey protein
Oats
Blueberries (sometimes raspberries too)
Tablespoon of olive/coconut oil (alternate every day)

Can always add in a banana...

Exactly.

Best one I've heard from one of these Netflix vegan documentaries was claiming one egg is the equivalent to smoking 5 cigarettes.

I don't know what's worse... the fact they made this...

Yes but it's not as easily absorbed as the iron found in meat. Google 'heme vs non-heme iron' for more info.

Not end of the world of course however I'm personally not a fan of voluntarily...

Completely agree.

I'm 35 and have been deadlifting for years but the older I get, the more aware I am aware of any niggling pains or in the case of deadlift, my lower back. Even with great form,...

Some good comments.

I'm curious, how many of those commenting here still deadlift? If you do, do you go heavy, conventional/sumo?

Seem to come across a few older lifters who would likely...

Very interesting, thank you

Nice, i'll try it out this week

Interesting. I haven't done upright rows for years. I stopped doing them as used to aggravate my wrist pain but might try them again.

I'm used to performing them as they are common with strength...

Interested to know why you wouldn't sub overhead press with another direct shoulder movement such as seated dumbbell press for example?

I agree with you to an extent, which is why I created this thread. I do not see the value in separating these two out into separate days as I've already said above, there is a lot of overlap.

I...

If its just a case of preference then fair enough, however just wanted to check I wasnt missing out on some benefits of splitting them out.

I agree with that statement however that’s not what I’m referring to here. You’d only be going heavy on each main lift once a week.

So rather than having dedicated days for strength/hypertrophy...

I've been looking into powerbuilding-style routines and the above seem to be quite popular.

Both are similar in that they have dedicated days for strength-based work and different days for...

Agreed!

Rows on Monday, Deadlifts and face pulls on Wednesday, Lat pulldowns on Friday.

I'd say that's sufficient back work for a full body split. Been working well for me so far.

I suppose it...

Just watched the video. That's exactly what I was after, thank you.

Very interesting point about ramping up the volume as the cut continues. Never heard that before but is well explained in the...

Of course, however a lot tend to spin their wheels with too much volume.

Tbh my workout is working fine for me, I've managed to lose quite a bit of fat and my lifts haven't suffered too much, I...

Past training volume mainly consists of Stronglifts 5x5, Starting strength, upper/lower, Wendler 5/3/1, done a variety of stuff in the past. When lockdown hit, that stalled my lifts and resumed with...

Care to elaborate?
