@maizeemay Stop doing CrossFit classes and build a huge squat while doing monostructural work to build work capacity

@danielkibby By not caring what other people think?

@paigek91 Rest days are preventative medicine. By the time you realise you need them you are too fatigued and training starts to suck

@tofixtorepair11 Amount of calories is the most important thing by a long way. Protein requirements aren't nearly as high as most people think.

@omnitude I found just doing pistols as deep as I could and gradually increasing the ROM worked better than anything else. I tried voodoo flossing and every other mobility aid but none of them seemed to work for me.

@orlandodoncarlossalina Bar speed is a good way of measuring RIR if you struggle to gauge it otherwise

@orlandodoncarlossalina All the AMRAP sets seems like a good way of building tons of fatigue for marginal gains. I would suggest a deload and back off the 0 RIR work especially for the compound lifts

@worship4him Linear progression only works for so long in terms of strength gains and you need to periodise your training

@hteezy I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. The answer to your original question is twofold 1) adaptive resistance is a thing so what used to work won't work indefinitely 2) You are doing a program that is essentially a powerlifting program and these programs are not designed with arm...

@kate930 Jim Wendler who is obviously not a bodybuilder but is strong AF calls it majoring in the minors. People focus way too much on stuff that doesn't matter and ignore the important stuff like just work hard

@napoleon111 Also if someone has great physical genes their arms likely don't stop growing after 6 months of training. Or maybe I'm just jealous because it took me about 4 years to bench 130kg

@napoleon111 I don't doubt it is possible but it is much less likely than people making shit up on the internet. Especially given his attitude in his responses here.

@mybridges No chance someone has a 130kg bench press after 6 months of training. Has to be a troll

@dawn16 As Stan Efferding says compliance is the science

@kellyy08 Good point. I hadn't thought about that.

@mariajo I know its an unpopular opinion on this sub but you can safely fail a set of squats and it is a skill most serious lifters should learn

@clertole Guessing his squat has about 5 inches of total ROM People who can legit squat 570 aren't training to failure every session like OP claims

@itsjoseph I've seen plenty of people "squat" 570 in the gym but never seen anyone even get close to parallel doing it

@gr3mlin I'd be more worried about adaptive resistance than injuries

@vsw874 My experience suggests it is not a myth. Obviously n=1 but my side delts never feel underecovered regardless of amount of volume but quads frequently feel like they need extended recovery times
