    Opinion/insights on Old USSR Bodybuilding Training Plan

    @nathanstrong Why do this when you could learn from TBJP on youtube? (who also advocates 3x a week Full Body) There are literally Jefferson Squats, Smith machine back extensions, iso lateral db shoulder pesses with holds, neck held oblique crunches on this program...

    What explanation could there be for simultaneous regression/stagnation on lower rep(4-6) and progression on higher rep(7-12) ranges?

    @asperd I mean, I agree 100%. I've drank so many times on sundays nights during NFL season, came in on Monday and full board PRs in my logbook over 5+ years before WORK at 5am. Your brain can't just randomly heal certain motor units from sleep and not others, that's peak bro science nonsense...

    What explanation could there be for simultaneous regression/stagnation on lower rep(4-6) and progression on higher rep(7-12) ranges?

    @cheapphenonline The sleep excuse is utter nonsense. Why would it affect some lifts and not others? Why would it affect some motor units and not others???? What amount of sleep did he need for 100% recovery? What for 95? It seems so tenuous. Almost complete nonsense. As someone who's...

    Haven’t missed the gym since Christmas. Is it necessary to have rest days if I’m doing PPL?

    @alchemist_jay To summarize it going to an RPE of 9/10 and 3x a week PPL will be great for you! Obviously don't go to an RPE of 10 on legpress and kill yourself lol. Hunter Labrada, on the Olympia stage as an OPEN body builder using all PEDs available only did 5x a week PPL. TBJP, the same...

    Haven’t missed the gym since Christmas. Is it necessary to have rest days if I’m doing PPL?

    @alchemist_jay If you train with high intensity PPL 3x a week is an extremely good split.

    Double progression vs set reps

    @backnforth When you read something like this you know it was a treasure found in the sewers of youtube fitness probably peddled by a 40 year old with leather skin on steroids.

    Interested to know what splits you guys are running with atm

    @arctangent If you're fast at recovery (likely more slow twitch dominant) , you should utilize one of the standard high frequency splits whether it be a FB/UL PPL or make a custom one tailored to your needs. If you train chest on friday and you're healed up by sunday, it doesn't really make a...

    What do you think about this guy's pull up and row technique?

    @jeanetteh Don't do exercises that isolate 1 muscle in the dumbest way possible when there are 20 better ones that hit 5 muscles at once. If this guy weren't juicing you'd be laughing at him, instead, you're trying to understand what he's doing as if he's delivering us esoteric wisdom from the...

    Been training for years and on the verge of giving up due to lack of progress, what should I do?

    @barefoothannahb For you to have made so little gains there has to be something catastrophically wrong with your input in the GYM (intensity, understand that too high of intensity is AN ISSUE with high frequency training if you haven't properly moderated your split in the same way that too...

    Seriously stubborn and weak chest

    @polarbearwear You're clearly having recovery issues if a WHOLE MUSCLE GROUP'S LIFTS aren't progressing. If it were something like one lift it could be form or something else but this is a slap in the face of information that can't be followed up without intelligent retaliation. Lower your...
