Volume is what I'm looking for, I was just saying, that intensity-wise 70% of their 1RM *sounds* reasonable. My post is very confusing, I'll give you that, I wasn't sure how to ask the question; I'm...

Thank you very much for the explanation. We're thinking of general strength training approach, 4 times a week and each day dedicated to each big lift (Deadlift, Bench, Squat, OHP). What would you say...

I should have been more specific in the original post. I'm not asking for myself, I'm a lower-intermediate lifter. I'm working on a project with my university and several other students. We're trying...

I was wondering what would be the optimal total volume an advanced lifter who struggles to make any games go for? I'm thinking around 70% of their 1RM, but not sure about. I'm doing a little...

I'll definitely try to consult a doctor soon. And for now I'll hope that a pinch of sea salt will do. Thank you.

So, a lot of water and enough salt. I'm guessing salty water would not be a bad idea?

Sorry for being unclear, I brought two weeks as an extreme example as in "If this lasted for more than two...

Have any of you tried eating a very low calorie diet? If so, what should one look out for?

This probably among the silliest posts in this section right now, and I know most of you will strongly...

I should have included the information in the original post, forgive me.

Squat: 92.5kg/203lbs 5x5; Deadlift: 135kg/297lbs 1x5; Bench: 65kg/143lbs 5x5; Overheadpress 47.5kg/105lbs 5x5; Pendlay Row:...

I want to do a small cut, and I'm wondering if there are any good programs that will help me maintain my strength in the meantime. I'm looking for something with compound movements and 2/3 times a...

If you struggle with increasing the weight even when you're bulking, then I'm afraid there isn't much to be done while on the cut. Either eat more or be patient. Make sure your mental game is strong,...

A little info about me:
Weight 70kg/155lbs; Height: 175cm/5'9;

Lifts:
Squat: 92.5kg/203lbs 5x5; Deadlift: 115kg/253lbs 1x5; Bench: 65kg/143lbs 5x5; Overheadpress 47.5kg/105lbs 5x5; Pendlay Row:...

@sooby,

If I had a penny for every time I've heard that... What's even funnier is that I'm probably 5'9.5 more realistically.

@arcticnova,

Thank you very much for such a detailed response. I...

That's definitely a good point, 2.5kg shouldn't make that much of a difference. Thanks for the suggestion, man.

I had a similar problem, but I don't know if the solution is applicable to you. My shoes were absolutely terrible and made it impossible for me to squat properly. I've switched to squatting in Chuck...

I don't feel too confident eating in a surplus when I'm ~23% bf or so. I'm not sure about the exact percentage, but you can see the pictures on my profile page. I feel like I'm only going to get...

I'm 20, 5'9 (175cm), currently 149lbs (68kg). I'm very inexperienced, below average genetics and skinny fat. I started doing SL 5x5 a few months ago because it was recommended to me here and I've...

Thanks for responding. If I eat in a slight caloric surplus, I'd end up gaining more weight, would it be advisable for someone with 24% bodyfat to bulk even more? And once again, please excuse my...

Hah. It's funny, it's hard to even argue with you guys. I don't even know how I can be so underweight with quite a lot of fat (you can see my pictures in my bodyspace since I can't link them here...

I'd be lying if I told you I'm an expert, but I think you're definitely under 30% bodyfat, even 25%. You're not skinnyfat at al, and although you might not be shredded, that's not that big of a deal,...
