    Novice strength levels - 0-1 rep a week even in calorie surplus, high protein, good sleep

    @faithofsaints Looking better, but I should definitely not be this weak after years of lifting. Edit: might have to up the volume then in that case. I’m always torn between “Am I doing enough volume” and “Am I doing too much volume?”.

    Novice strength levels - 0-1 rep a week even in calorie surplus, high protein, good sleep

    @dupe Yup, 5 days a week without question. I’m always at around an RPE9. I’m not often sore though even though I increase sets every week. Even when I am sore I have the same slow progression. Doing about 7 sets of chest a week at the moment and increasing weekly. 22kg dumbbell in each hand.

    @catholic500 I spend about an hour to 2 hours at the gym. Got test checked a few months ago and it was above average.

    Novice strength levels - 0-1 rep a week even in calorie surplus, high protein, good sleep

    I’m still at novice levels of strength (22kg bench press) and I gain strength soooo slow it’s ridiculous! I get over 1g/1lb of body weight in protein, I get good sleep, I’m doing a good amount of volume, I’m not deficient in nutrients, form is great. Why the hell do I progress so slowly? It’s...

    So systemic MRV isn’t real, same with local MRV?

    So I just watched a video from Meno Hanseman where he explains how CNS fatigue/systemic fatigue doesn’t really exist in weight training, it’s more for endurance athletes. So now I’m thinking is it the same for local muscle MRV? Is there a maximum amount of volume you can do for a muscle before...
