@eleanorwhite Good question because if you deload incorrectly, you can actually deload the training stimulus and the session won't really be useful. When you deload, try deloading the SETS. That way you still get an intense stimulus, but you simply get less of it. It's kind of like if you were...

@jesusloverr No problem! :D Not much at all. I'm actually not near as active as people would think. I ditched all the extra movement stuff I was doing long ago so on off days, I go for a walk sometimes and that's it. I spend a lot of my day on the computer answering emails, making post...

@lucie_tsao Goodness, that's so true. Sometimes I think people think low intensity = easy but when you make up for it with the reps, those sets can be worse (in terms of how they feel) than high intensity sets where you do them and then they're over sooner. 😂

@esmeknits I don't know why but I am just LAT every time to class. How late am I? I am the exact warm-up time late every time! 😂

@dawn16 Not necessarily. I wouldn’t be surprised to find some strong people with low endurance.

@rkenoke Congrats on your progress! Keep up the great work!

@hunter101 That's the name of the game! The body can adapt to not needing one under the right circumstances but you STILL need to build it up. Can't just be like "I have been using 10 sets to warm-up but now I am going to just jump STRAIGHT in". You gotta... warm-up to no warm-up! 😂

@njgarage001 I'd definitely suggest Upper/Lower. You can use an Upper/Lower split + Antagonistic Pairs and that will let you get the entire body done with 2 days. PPL takes 3 days. The advantage of getting it done in 2 days is that you have a full day of rest for recovery and muscle growth. You...

@seanni Everyone has a rep range that they're more inclined towards for a variety of reasons. I prefer that range, as well.

@tulang I don’t really agree but you’re welcome to have that belief if you’d like. Go up to some 250 pound powerlifter and tell them al about how weak they are haha.

@summer63 VERY clean! Well done! Congrats on that new gain!

@arodrewe Thank you! :D I’d probably just do this on the rest days and treat it as an off day arm balancing practice.

@jesusloverr Hi! I love this topic. So if you look at the standard science, you are probably going to see warm-ups touted as beneficial for injury prevention. And I am not saying they are NOT beneficial for injury prevention or performance enhancement or any of that. I think they absolutely...

@tulang I mean we can extend that to anything. I could say “I’m not sure you could be considered strong unless you can _____ “. Like a plank isn’t some magical move that decides strength compared to something like a x2 bw bench. You’re gonna tell me if someone benched over x2 bw but couldn’t...

@tulang Something wrong? Because they can’t do a 2 minutes plank? I’m not sure I agree.

@withhope2022 What's your goal with your workout? I like the overall idea behind what he did and use some of the concepts but I found some tweaks made it a bit more viable long-term.

@freefromabuse I'd definitely put the Horizontal Pull into one of those days and I'd put in a Leg Curl. If you have Squat + Leg Curl, you'll be good to go. :D

@cabalauxz Fair enough. I don’t think holding a plank for 2 minutes makes or breaks whether one is strong or not but that’s just different viewpoints. 😊

@lase3 I'd try to increase the ROM of those HSPUs so that it's easier to get out of the bottom. In additon to that, I'd suggest working on the Planche Pushup which will give you MORE than enough strength to get out of the bottom. If you train both of those, you can actually get the 90 Degree...

@440281/ What are you doing for 2 hours in the gym? You might be doing too much work during the session and having a hard time recovering.
