Kind of getting back into it. We bought a duplex with our friends and it has been a lot of work. I'm at about 75% strength but I am going to...
I definitely don't know if your experience is like mine but I experienced this the first and second times I did DUP. I found too much max effort...
So to answer how you should scale your sets/reps will depend on a handful of factors: What was your previous cycles' training intensities and...
Well there are some benefits to BFR that even submax can't offer, but I don't think it is a "always better than" type situation. I'm not very...
I find squatting then leg pressing to have good results. Squats are obviously a great lift, then leg press lets you add a bit more volume to the...
I'm sure that's a great cake and all but it looks like it is being served on a bed of pubes.
You can workout as often as you can recover. I find 2-3 workouts a week is my max because I live a high stress life, I'm 37 and I hate sleeping....

Congrats for going 9/9 and qualifying for Brit Champs! Great execution on those lifts.
Below is my current program. Everything has been going smoothly. A handful of highlights were a casual 495 sumo for a single after 260x20. Squat...

June (mid) updates: Moved to a DUP high variety program for the next 12-16 weeks. Some highlights so far; Bench 225x12, Sumo 425 3x3, Squat 315...
I just treat myo-rep sets as "lots of work/stress/fatigue, little bit of time", so for me if I don't see myself developing that volume over the...
Is this for reals or hyperbole? I find to get a full body workout in is more like 2 hours in a standard normal gym (3 sometimes). Warm ups,...
I don't have anything to add but this thread is really nice, its like the HST site from when I first joined, even Rihad is back!
Thanks Bryan, I feel like that helped me focus my own understanding.
Nice discussion, as I was ruminating on it I had the some questions: Where did it come from that 2 weeks was optimal exposure to a rep range?...
Crazy how time flies...anyways the highlights were a 485 sumo, a failed 500 sumo, a 500 off of 45lb plates, and a 500 for 5 total reps off of 2...
