Basically lugging boxes and barrels, yeah

Focus on deads then, and yeah grip work too though if you deadlift enough you shouldn't need too much more. if people havent seen it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RgRCHgyalk

So, I've been doing strength stuff at the gym for probs a couple of years now, and recently I've just gotten the urge to do something to change it up, maybe a bit more practical. I'm really tempted to try some boxing classes nearby, moreso for the training aspect of it, I don't have any real intention of actually hitting people, but I've always liked the look of the training side of it. Is there anyone here who does this who could offer any advice or tips or anything?

I've come to the realization that for the first time in my life, I'm actually consistently working out for myself and not for anyone else. It's entirely a satisfaction that I get just from feeling my strength and seeing my body grow, and doesn't depend on any compliment from here or there. Makes me much more confident that I can keep up this consistency too rather than drop it like the many times I did before. Keep it up dudes!

@cathal6606 would you recommend a similar push day to the pull day you posted in the old thread?

Me and boifriend startin cut today, gonna miss that bulking diet but I miss my old definition from last summer even more

Your number of reps really should vary. The metric I use is "Can I do one more without losing form? Great! I'll do one more!"

Squats today, got 405 for 2 sets of 2 Was probably the hardest squat session ive had since maintenance, gonna see if I can carry on with this linear progression for a bit longer before I hop on smolov/some sort of program

Just ordered 300 grams of creatine, seems like every website has a different opinion on when to take it. Should i be taking before or after workout. And what the hell is a loading phase?

wow this forum looks like complete shit, who's the dipshit who changed it? wonder how long I'll last until I get banned for posting my opinions against all the faggot liberals in the sensationalist headlines forum

Before, and dont worry about that its a myth meant to get you to use more so you can buy more

update for you all since I am the king of this forum, I more or less stopped training, lost about 30 lbs, but still mog anyone in here, and I don't even squat

I dont really approve of PPL splits, I dont think training a muscle group once per week is enough, but they are ok, so heres a push day you could do: Main lift: Bench: a medium- high volume range like 4x7 or 4x6 or 5x5 or 6x4 Assistance Something that will directly help your bench press eg: Close grip bench (3x8-10), Pause bench (3x5), Flat DB Bench (3x8-10), Incline bench (3x8-10) Something to work the shoulders: Dumbbell or barbell shoulder press (3x12-15, at a pretty light weight) Or if youre too tired for that do some tricep pull downs or skull crushers for 1-2x20 Or do both

heres a formula for you geeks lift heavy eat good clean food and a lot of it run a mile every day das it mane

i outlifted 95 percent of you geeks when I was 14 years old real shit

Thanks, I really appreciate the help. I plan on doing 2 PPLs a week, with 1 rest day in-between or at the end. God I miss barbell lifts though, Planet Fitness blows. I never did much dumbbells work before having to switch to this gym and now that's all they have.. I miss deadlifts the most

hes fucking back

Fuck yeah im back, New plan. I want to bang a different chick every two weeks at a minimum, so new plan is temporarily ditching oly lifting for a year while I get used to working, shred out at 220, actually work my arms and traps and back and do gay bodybuilder shit, actually deadlift, and eat more protein weak as shit rn cuz bad breakup but getting back, not gonna be beta, i broke up with the girl im not supposed to be the one whos shitty. Prime ass tho lemme tell ya

Did you make an account on old punch called "lecookiesrready"

Obviously you dont know who I am. I am the king of witness the fitness, the true king. I signed up again upon request, my old moniker was invoked in the title of this thread

I know who you are I used to lurk there , I was just wondering if that was you or not cause I can't think of anyone else who would name themselves after a misc meme

any tips on improving flexibility?

good to have you back big lenny, we're all fans of the sex tape stretch

I can recommend Pavel's Relax into Stretch book for some good concepts and techniques about improving flexibility. Barring that, read on the various techniques of stretching on the internet. Remember that to actually get more flexible you need to add specific stretches that work as part of your program, it's not something you just do every once in a while and get flexible. It's a slow process. Whatever you do, don't just mindlessly "stretch". You'll waste your time at best and open yourself to possible injury at worst.

Aren't you originally supposed to cycle through the days two times a week in PPL? Otherwise I think once a week is great for casual lifters. Your push day seems solid btw.

No but you need legs and the core strength associated with proper leg work to make significant progress with your upper body. Good luck pressing anything significant if you have twig legs / a weak back.

#24 mega You have the lower body and you have no upper body, you got a problem building...wait a minute. You have the upper body, and you have no legs, you got a problem building your legs. You have the upper...you have the lower body and you don't have the upper body, the upper body, it is easier to build. So if you have the lower body and you don't have the upper body, it is easier to build the upper body. You have the upper body and you don't have the legs, you got a problem building the lower body... No, you don't understand. You have the upper body, but you don't have the lower body, you got a problem building downstairs. You got the up- legs on the bottom, it is easier to build on the top, so you don't have much as a problem.qqq

6 day a week PPL makes more sense but in that case both workouts i put up have too much volume to do twice a week, but feel free to try it and let me know how it goes

@cathal6606 when you planning on doing your next meet?
