@kimdawnxo His incline press is quite good, actually. 27.5 * 2 = 55 kg. Your 80% is equivalent to 65*0.8 = 52 kg. He's doing 55 / 65 * 100 = 84.6% Don't really understand your comment? He's doing more than the number you gave.

@cybernetic Yea that's a quite a big margin of error:D I always go to failure, except heavy compounds like squats and deadlift, and have been seeing good progress. If you're going to failure, dont stop when the reps become "way too slow" - that's when you're incentivising the muscle to grow.

@nailed4us Motivation is only for getting started, and discipline is unsubstainable. You have to build habits. Most people who think they're extremely disciplined have really just built heavily ingrained habits

@hone "So, i can just read the litterature, why do i need dr mike? What you just said is stupid." Do you have the reading comprehension of a 5 year old? As I already described, when the advice over time consistently conforms to the current body of evidence, our trust in the person conveying it...

@hone "What is the proof that dr mike is one of those people?" Jesus Christ, what do you think? You would read the literature to see whether or not the advice conforms to the greatest body of evidence. Over time, consistently accurate representations of our current understanding of hypertrophy...

@hone "Then we should follow Ronie's advice. And haneys, they are the most succesful bodybuilders." No, we should listen to the people most accurately conveying the scientific litterature.

@hone Then you're a dumbass. The quality of advice is determined by the merit and evidence, not the person.
