You can work bicep and triceps every workout in my experience. You also might want to consider squatting every workout and then just deadlifting maybe 1-2 sets once a week. But even without any changes it looks fine to me.

Stop abusing steroids Leonard! /sarcasm

25ffmi is the upper limit of what is likely attainable naturally, there will be some outliers but it sounds like you are arguing that most BB pics are of guys who are just a bit over 25, when in reality Phil Heath is like 35ffmi. There's a huge gulf once you are willing to use and I don't...

I'm with @Old and Grey, you keep training and keep making adjustments. It slows down and you can be severely behind others but the only talent it takes to improve your FFMI is to simply continue to build mass. Comparing the gaining of muscle mass to all of these other skills such as football...

Yeah I've just been cranking up the reps and its been good lots of hamstring and psoas stimulus. Right now I just do 185x3x15, I'll prolly go to 205 in the near future.

Yeah, getting some kind of tendo or bar tracking software would be cool.

Same as last time (pretty much). PR Friday, repeat on Sunday (optional) and Monday, go up 5lbs next Friday. Then for volume I do RDLs in an HST format (not sure I will get to 5s with it unless my recovery is really on point). For the rest of my body I do HST for the 15s but then I am going to...

Mini update, I hit 435 on Friday, again on Sunday and once more for good measure Monday. Will tackle 440 this Friday.

HRV told me I am good to go. I am feeling a little off like I might be getting sick, so I am going to attempt 435 but take it easy on the rest of my lifts.

Its too early for me to tell you. Right now its a little hard for me to see the benefit.

Today was the first day HRV told me I was overreaching a bit. I did my workout and pulled 425 and the additional volume work the night before. So I pulled 425 again today and the movement was a little better. I was definitely not feeling 100% but at this point I am not really sure HRV is...

That makes sense, I will drop the rest period as you suggest. Thanks!

Hmm, maybe I didn't explain my plan well. In the 10s, 5s and 2s I would do a single set of that. Then I would do myo reps starting with an activation set with 85% of my 15rm until I am fairly fatigued (RPE 8), I am going to guess I will probably be in the 14+ rep range for the activation set...

I am following the more conventional rep scheme for HST each for two weeks progressing each week; 3x15, 4x10, 5x5, 6x2. However I am also doing conservative maxing on my Deadlift. Now this has been working just fine but due to my schedule I haven't made it to the 5x5 and 6x2 block. So what I...

I received my chest strap heart monitor, I picked up the Polar H7 a pretty common and cheap but highly rated chest strap. I've done it two mornings so far with a 54hrv yesterday and a 59hrv today. I don't really know what that means yet and I will just be tracking it for my next lifting cycle...
