You are a machine. The bodybuilding articles around recommend at least 6 hours of sleep a day to grow and your gains don't seem to suffer with the sleep depriving. Are you taking regular SDs? And deloads? Enviado do meu iPad usando Tapatalk

Did you ever try to suppress blue light at night? There are studies showing that exposure to blue radiation at night impairs sleeping by leading the brain to believe is daytime etc. That's the reason why newer iPhones have a night mode in which they block blue light. I also have seen special...

Good to hear from you again Totentanz. I've been away from the board for several months, so I may have missed some point...why aren't you deadlifting anymore?

Hi mick, I've been thinking about cutting down triceps work. Not sure about cable rows but I can eventually do this. I don't monitor rest times but I'm probably around 2-3 minutes for deads and bench with shorter times for the other lifts.

Hi all, I've been cutting for 3 months now and things are going well so far, but I'm starting to feel a little tired from training 3x a week with maximal effort. My current routine is a 3x a week full body session as follows: CORE LIFTS Deadlifts (these only twice a week) Overhead press...

Yes, no doubt! Good advice Totentanz. So said Jester. In the start I was a little scared by all the stuff I had just read on that site. After a few days I'm back to my diet and training, pursuing the best me I can possibly achieve. It's over. Thanks.

I also doubt one would max out with only 3-4 years of training. Anyway there is really something wrong between Gnuckols ideas and some guys like nattyornot who claims that almost anyone bigger than Jason Statham or Bruce Lee is on roids. I'm starting to believe that the truth is in the middle...

Hi! Just met nattyornot.com a few days ago. I read almost the entire content of it since then. There is a pile of good info there, but also a lot of bullshit. Anyway it caught my eye. The most curious parts are the analysis from the author (anonymous) about people that would supposedly be on...

Agree. I got completely addicted to his site. I still didn't buy his book but I plan to do it soon.

I'll keep myself worried about my plus size glutes but I like the way you deal with it. Anyway, I started to cut and considering that glutes have a great portion of fat I expect to get more balanced at the end. Maybe I should really get cool with it...

1. I understand. 2. Agree. 3. Not sure. Some women like it other don't. 4. Entirely agree. 5. Indeed. I thought of doing this and after a while I came to the same conclusion you did. It won't build nothing except some injuries, maybe. 6. Excellent idea but if I'm progressing on...

Skinny legs suck. It's a good idea, there is a Brazilian guy near my city that bought a De Lorean. Obviously he conceived many interviews to TV channels past week. He even bought the transforming kit to put his car identical to the movie one.

Me? Deadlifting on YouTube? Serious? I think I'd prefer another way... ;)

Hi all, I'm back. I have no doubt that my life is now split in before and after deadlifts. Since I started doing them I got the biggest traps and forearms on my entire life. I also banned completely my spinal issues. It's a wonderful exercise and I don't intend to leave it ever. However I'm...

Excellent suggestions! Thank you.

Hi. I would like to improve my grip so I can progress faster in my deadlifts. Today I'm basically limited by my grip strength. To get things worse, the barbells at my current gym are chrome coated, so its surface is very slippery. I don't want to use straps because I prefer to get a stronger...

So...talking about Greg Nuckols, did anybody buy his books Art of Lifting and Science of Lifting? His Strengtheory site is terrific, lots of good advice. I'd want to give a step further buying his books but at almost US$ 50 I need to make sure it worths the price. Greg has a very objective...

Agree. As Jester also pointed well, a 50% deload is probably very near a SD.

We shouldn't forget that taking 2-3 weeks off may be extremely beneficial to our minds and the mood, even better if we can match it with a trip or some vacation. At least one'll take his vacation without torturing himself by being off the weights.

Funny, I was browsing the web for PL resources and found this article 2 days ago. Really interesting. Better saying, the entire site has relevant resources.
