    Help me fix this pull day

    @gladventist I heard the fullbody prescription a lot of times. A damn lot. It's a religion, a fashion, something temporary that will disappear in a couple years just as the powerlifting focused and the 3 basics religion disappeared form the hypertrophy scene back in the 2015-17. It's a cult...

    With progressive overload, do you guys increase the reps on your last set or your first set?

    @alexander5106954665 Do the dynamic double progression. Here's a video on it: Once you're advanced enough you might find useful to reduce it to 2 sets per exercise (increasing number of exercises), with the Top Set-Back Off schedule.

    @gladventist Another one with the fullbody religion. Full body is not better than any other splits. In fact, is probably worse since you can't express enough intensity for almost any muscle, cause you have to train it again literally 2 days later. And since I practise a sport where I use the...

    With progressive overload, do you guys increase the reps on your last set or your first set?

    @hopelessfool That's the double progression. Somebody in this sub recommended me the DYNAMIC double progression (Sean Nalewanyj has a video on it), which I found leads to faster results. Applying it to your scheme, it would consist on add weight once you reach the rep goal on a certain set...

    Help me fix this pull day

    @dove44 Going between machines is no problem since I basically train in an old bunker-like gym in the middle of a "forest area" which has the barely minimum required. There's no machines, just cables, barbells, plates, dumbbells (and not very heavy ones)... It's not that much volume, 11 sets...

    Help me fix this pull day

    Couple days ago, it was my pull day which consisted in: • Close neutral grip lat pulldown, 2 sets, 8-10 reps • Wide grip pronated low cable (gironda) row for upper back, 3 sets, 8-10 reps • Single arm low cable row, narrow trajectory for lats: 2 sets, 8-10 reps, last set to failure • Wide...

    4 day split VS bro split

    @lostsoul_ As a natural, I don't think anyone needs that much specific focus on any body part, cause it might be too much volume. For example, shoulders: front delts are just covered by the pushing motions you perform, specially if you're doing military press, then add 2 maximum exercises for...

    Losing the dad bod

    @wayne1980 Focus on lose the fat first, but since you're an untrained individual, you can gain muscle and lose far at high rates quickly. If that's your only equipment, get a bench, at least, and lear about exercising to find out what more stuff you need. But bodyweight exercises can be fine for...
