It's because the 10's do work. Jester just doesn't think so. Like I just said, even Bryan said gains will be more or less consistent if you do it...
I think Colby meant "throw in" ;) Yes, larger muscle groups vs smaller ones. But that routine of yours is fine. You can simply add in...
Your contention then is that only heavy phases will be useful for hypertrophy. That's like 8RM+, I believe. You just made the the entire 10's and...
Yes, protein consumption is usually increased. Have you heard of PSMF? PSMF is a diet that takes that to, say, extreme levels. Haven't tried it...
Eat enough protein, eat enough fat. The rest should be carbs. Too much protein is not ideal if you plan on gaining mass due to thermogenesis...
If clearly at a deficit, generally no, unless you have a high BF (really fat, beyond the upper limit of the healthy range, which for men is 20%...
Negatives mean you concentrate only on the eccentric portion of the lift, not on the concentric because you can't lift it by yourself anyway since...
Not really. Progression is ok as long as you correctly get your maxes for each exercise. What it affects is neural learning, which may interfere...
Or just lower the carbs. If you lower your fat too much, not only does that affect t-levels, but would also imply you would limit your intake of...
For the past months, since fully recovering from a minor shoulder injury (right shoulder) due to astoundingly poor bench press form two years ago,...
2 sets chest + burn set (when heavy), 2 sets rows + burn set (when heavy). Everyday literally so 7 days. Sometimes I miss a day or two, but it...
Submaximal load, yes, but not exactly under your capabilities. This is where the confusion lies a lot of times. You should be doing as much volume...
To get the feel of your maxes now, you can just retest them. If I were in your shoes, though, I personally would go use light weights (15s or...
I don't think we're seeing eye to eye hear [img] Since CT is proportional to load, then if you end up at the same max loads, you arguably will...
Well, that explains why we didn't meet eye to eye. When dieting, protein is kept high for better TEF, which we want to avoid when we are bulking.
Use FFM Ratios are ok, you just aren't following the optimal one. 40% protein is too high. Read this thread: Nutrition and other stuff Depends...
To Kai: Yes, HST is a good idea. I doubt you'll get a different answer, this forum being the home of HST.
To gtwr: And also look at this thread, so I don't have to repeat all the stuff I said there (long thread, and I had lots of stuff I said there):...
To gtwr: Some quotes from the FAQ: 0.7 - 1.5 g per KG has been mentioned many times before, and was generally agreed upon both by Dan and...
I usually eat only canned foods - easy to prepare, convenient, not very expensive. For the last 4-5 months (I'm not kidding here), I've been...
