Post form check videos. Gotta make sure your form is dialed in first and foremost.

Ben Pollack has a pretty nice free powerbuilding program available on his site.

I didn't. Someone asked me what I was doing . . .

Edit: Nevermind, realized you were talking to someone else.

My sticking point is right in the middle of the rep. I'm fast off the chest and my lockout is solid. I've been working in spoto press and less frequently pin press to work the middle portion of the...

That's actually how I have 5/3/1 set up right now. Instead of an OHP day and bench day, I'm doing two bench days, with OHP as the secondary movement on the second bench day.

For bench accessory...

Thanks for the suggestion. That link seems to just go to an article about the author's back injury and rehab, I can't seem to find the actual program.

Edit: Nevermind found the spreadsheet images...

What's up everyone. I'm hoping for some advice regarding program selection. I've been running various templates of 5/3/1 for about 8 months now.

Current info:
Age: 35 year old male

I'm actually doing 5x5 at 80% of TM instead of 5x10 lighter. That being said, I've done some reading on the Cube method and might give that a shot here soon.

I'm running 5/3/1 BBB four days a week in preparation for my first powerlifting meet later this year.

Don't use macro percentages. Get at least .7g of protein per lb of body weight and at least .4g of fat per lb of body weight. Fill in the rest of your calories with whatever macros work for you.

This. If I simply "ate when hungry" I'd be obese again quickly. My appetite is pretty insane.

Frozen veg and some kind of meat right now since I'm cutting. When I'm bulking I add potatoes or rice.

What program are you running, and what does that program dictate you do when you stall on a lift?

Typically it's advised to move to an intermediate progression when you can no longer keep up with novice progression (novice progression has you adding weight to the bar more frequently).

HOWEVER,...

How much back pain did you have after this session? Deadlifting with form like that would destroy my back and leave me in pain for days.
Those above me have pointed out the flaws in your form. ...

It doesn't make any real difference. Don't major in the minors.

EC stack made with Bronkaid and caffeine tabs worked great for me, is easy to get, and is relatively cheap. I'll definitely be going back to it on my next cut.

Religion is a joke.
