Belt squat, leg press / hack squat combo, or GHD / reverse hyper combo?

I’ve got room for - if I’m really, really careful - one more piece of equipment. I’ve already got a 6 post rogue cage, an...

Nope, not adjustable like that.

To your second question, no idea, sorry! Obviously the safest bet is that if you want the handles, just get the Prime bar. But no idea if you can pull off a cheap...

Fitbod perhaps, or maybe JuggernautAI.

I own it as well and am overall quite happy with it; but you’re right about expensive. Here in Denmark it cost me a good 28000 DKK.

ATX is good stuff overall. Little bit too industrial looking at...

Personally, I don’t believe 40ish is old enough to make you weaker - probably by the time you get to 60 (and even then it’s relative, there are some strong MFers out there at 60). I’m at 42 myself,...

They’ve done right by me - had their UK COO working personally to get me a bar that I wanted, and it came in quick and in good condition. Didn’t care for it quite as much as I’d hoped (should have...

To the OPs question: my primary concern is quality, which makes it kind of hard to buy stuff made in the US. But Rogue and a few others make good stuff. Couple of high-end places in Europe like...

This.

And it’s bovine excrement in any case. Hugging your kid shirtless isn’t going to sap your testosterone, fill you with estrogen and magically change all the proteins in your diet to fats.

On spread, but this is great input.

Watson is really good stuff. I own several of their smaller pieces. Great service, too. And personally I think the lines and finish on their stuff is top notch.

Panatta looks gorgeous if you like...

Why that? Creatine helps muscular endurance more generally, and has also been shown to have cognitive and other benefits. Aside from the apparent non-responders, there doesn’t seem to be any reason...

Um, ok.

But lifting weights isn’t going to keep you from getting the snot kicked out of you. If that’s a valid concern, go study martial arts. Much more effective than doing a long, slow...

This. You’ll find you make quite some gains for a while without having to bulk. Milk those, then start a slow bulk the way MG5 describes.

Besides which, I find it very beneficial to eat at...

Finally gave front squats a try this morning. I’m surprised, but I like the monos better on those than I do on the bench!



Way more plastic protecting everything (bar, uprights) than Rogue’s....

To be honest, benching was the primary purpose for which I purchased them. I actually haven’t yet used them on a squat, though I intend to as well. :P

Now that my form is much better on the bench...

I’ve got no experience with other monolifts, mind you, but it seems pretty handy on the bench to get the bar centered. Looking forward to trying them on squat day next week…

Scored some new custom-fabbed (UK supplier) adjustable monolift attachments. I think they look pretty sweet, and they have plastic liners everywhere to protect the bar and rack… but the best feature...

Lower day 1 today.

1x5 zombie squats, 3 RIR
5x5 SSB squats, same weight as above
3x12 stiff-legged deadlifts, 2 RIR
2x12 Bulgarian split squats, 2 RIR
12 Leg curl at 2 RIR / 15 ab wheel, 2...

Heh. Beavis. Heh heh.

As for this thread, OP, 4 weeks of linear progression is… nothing. You’ve not understood the difference between failing to hit your lifts and a genuine stall, I think. You...
