    Question thread for our AMA with Alberto Nuñez of 3DMJ!

    @paparazi257 Assuming all training parameters are in check (exercise selection, execution, RIR, Rom, etc) how would you prioritize legs/calves for a seasoned lifter assuming theyre a genetic weakpoint? Would you adjust the split to favor a higher freq of leg sessions relative to upper? What are...

    Time and time again the guys adding the most LBM/density are the ones focused on moving big loads (regardless of rep range)

    @niecey85 No definitely not. Didnt mean for it to come across that way, my b. I forget if I added the end of that comment as an edit or if it was part of my original reply but it's more so based off of strong trends that I and others have noticed. And interesting to hear the take on PPLx1 vs...

    Time and time again the guys adding the most LBM/density are the ones focused on moving big loads (regardless of rep range)

    @niecey85 Going by his exercise execution its effort if Im understanding the terms correctly. He also said he likes doing 10 total sets per workout and only does PPLx2 every 10 days. So maybe a lot of intra-workout rest, lol. Setting up for big lifts and whatnot. And yes as others have said the...

    @j3r3m3 I know what youre saying but Id actually argue the opposite. I feel that topic has been beaten to death and most of us are unanimously of the same opinion on it. However if what youre saying is correct (more load for the same amount of reps = more muscle) then that should be the focus...

    Time and time again the guys adding the most LBM/density are the ones focused on moving big loads (regardless of rep range)

    Ive made posts about this before but it seems time and time again the guys who are adding the most LBM/density to their physique are the ones focused on moving big loads in their training (regardless of rep range). AJ Morris' recent post is a perfect example, and it confuses me b/c his style...

    Frequency for a leg prioritization for an experienced lifter?

    @pamelamarie89 Went with the first option in the comment you replied to which was legs 2x in 6 days. It was my front runner all along as it ticked the most boxes. Got to do my fav number of sessions (2 on/1 off), got to have a dedicated delt/arm sesh, got to take 1 small step up in leg frequency...

    Frequency for a leg prioritization for an experienced lifter?

    @berylpricee That ones on my list! I have a list of my possible next splits. All are asynchronous (dont align to the 7 day week) and all train legs 2x every 5-8 days (my previous split was training everything 2x in 9 days and I felt my legs could benefit from more. I like the idea of...

    Frequency for a leg prioritization for an experienced lifter?

    @mm1992 Thanks. My plan was UL or something very similar. I have a few minor gripes w/ the set up you listed. 1) I prefer asynchronous splits that don't line up to the 7 day week, so I usually train things twice every 8-9 days, and am now considering twice every 5-6 for legs. Just dont wanna...

    Frequency for a leg prioritization for an experienced lifter?

    @amerikanka Im average height but proportionally speaking my legs are on the longer side. Always been a fast runner. Obviously BB squats and whatnot have never felt great. My fav moves currently: Quads: Hacks, leg press, leg ext, split squats Hams: RDL, seated/lying leg curls, back ext

    Frequency for a leg prioritization for an experienced lifter?

    @dawn16 Cool, thanks for the input. One of those three 2 on/1 off options are the main ones Im considering, I feel 3 on/1 off can be a lil much on recovery. I was leaning towards the other two though b/c 1) It feels like more of a leg priority if my upper bodys freq was a little lower and my...

    Frequency for a leg prioritization for an experienced lifter?

    Training >10yrs. Legs have always been a (genetic) weakpoint partially b/c I have a good upper. Intensity/exercise selection and everything is in check, I just cant truly catch them up in size or strength. Also have above average femur length for my height. Now Ive trained legs 2x every 8-9...
