    Progressive overload variations

    @savis doggcrapp training, it's a training program based around rest pause training, high protein diet, a specific split and progressive overload

    Questioning my progress

    @d33smth Maybe at 10% bodyweight gain so like 185-190 take a check at that point and assess. Try not to worry about bodyfat percentage too much until a couple years of productive training at productive bodyweight. If you’ve bulked and cut maybe 2-3x through productive bodyweights (see next...

    Compound-focus: my full-body training method

    @flemman11 Before/after: pics, lifts, bodyweight (with height)? Hard to gauge effectiveness from an estimated ffmi

    My issues with measuring hypertrophy by strength increase

    @oojeanetteoo progress tension, not strength. strength will come as a byproduct of progressing tension. so if you do 140 3x10 (30 reps), next workout do 140 3x10 and another set of 8 (38 reps) or 145 3x9 and another set of 3 (30 reps). either total weight or reps must go up - failure, strength...

    Progressive overload variations

    @savis rest pause training - do 3 rest pause sets and count total number of reps. have a rep goal and increase weight when you hit the rep goal over 3 sets (dc training). for example goal = 18 reps, and you do 12, 5, 3 = up the weight cluster sets - do 6 sets with a goal of 6 reps per set with...

    Questioning my progress

    @d33smth how have you been lean bulking for 1.5 years and are only 160? 1% bodyweight gain per month is good rule of thumb for lean bulking and 1% bodyweight loss per week for cutting. in terms of partitioning - not something to be concerned with. you just want your body to be in a good place...

    Questioning my progress

    @d33smth bulk to 200lbs, seriously. there's only so much progress you're going to be able to eek out at +/- 10lbs of 160lbs at 6'0. take 2 years or so, slowly get up to 200lbs (take some minicuts or small cuts on the way up if you need it for mental) and the difference will be night and day.

    overtraining impacting results

    @luke2334janel i'm sure others are going to give you good advice that you can incorporate as there's always things you can do to improve if you want. for what it's worth, though, in real life i very rarely see 2 plate+ benching for reps from anyone under like 20-25% bodyfat. most guys i see are...

    Haven’t made much progress on lifts on physique even after bulking. Is there something wrong with my program or is it something else?

    @melimeli2210 Your lifts look solid enough for 160lbs if your focus is hypertrophy. Tbh, I don’t think your program is your issue, I think you’re simply not gonna maximize your physique if you don’t push your bodyweight substantially up. Imo, gain 20-30lbs slowly over the next year or two and be...

    PPL: two ways of spreading out volume, pros/cons?

    @andy0 likely you won't be able to perform as well on your 4th thru 6th set of each exercise which will lead to less hypertrophy. you also miss the chance to stimulate the same muscle patterns 2x a week as the exercises are slightly different. so rear delts for example are being hit directly...

    Is 10 sets a chest to failure a week sufficient?

    @kalwa if you're progressing, yes. if you're not progressing, it could be too much or not enough or other variables aren't in order.
