    Are weighted pull ups even worth it?

    @vinod367 If you can't do 8 clean reps chest to bar, no. I'd wager 99% of lifters can't with good form because we live in a society that forces us into terrible posture. Shitty office chairs shitty desks and heights shitty car seats shitty sofas and couches that pamper our body to be in a...

    How do you respond (and deal with it internally) when someone asks you if you are “still lifting”?

    @danielkibby Don't let it get to you. Train and eat hard at a 250-500 surplus, keep same exercises and form to standardize and track your progress. Accept the fact you'll be big and pundy for years then do a good solid 3 month cut (nothing extreme, maybe 300-400 less than TDEE). It takes...

    What’s your experience eating far below calories for a small period of time?

    @austinsugden A few weeks? Fine. On my cut 3 years ago when I went from 82kg to 70kg in 73 days (21% to 9% BF), I was on a massive deficit (1600-1800) while working out 6 days a week. Near the 6 week mark, or roughly a bit past half way the 73 days, I had horrible insomnia and VERY cranky...

    Going to failure VS chasing the pump VS volume

    @robrandazzo How old are you, OP? In my 10+ years of training the worst mistakes I've made was training in the less than 5RM ranges. All my injuries, shoulder, wrist, neck, were from pushing too low of RMs therefore recruiting other parts of my body, most notably neck and traps, to compensate...
