@silsophi How are your hormones? Test count? Have you checked for nutrient deficiencies in your blood? Are you eating nutritiously, not just getting macros? Enough healthy fats? Avoiding processed foods? Getting CONSISTENTLY 8+ hours of high-quality sleep? Lifting for 4 years vs lifting for 4...

@halle from a glance it’s a lot of volume. i would go down to 2 sets each instead of 3.

@arab545 in what way?

@holydan86 i used to be on team no obliques for the skinny waist. but there’s nothing like being diced with veins all over your obliques popping out. shit gives you +100 aesthetics.

@thedarkfigure As most people not about bulking, the carbs suck. It’s because on a normal diet you eat between 100-200, sometimes maybe 250-300. on a good bulk you’re eating 400+ carbs a day, and it’s HARD. but the energy gains aren’t even comparable. like training with caffeine vs without.

@davenigeria Try this, put one hand on your chest, then try to flex it. Then try and move your arm (the side you’re flexing) back, and play around with that angle of your elbow in the stretched position to see what feels like it’s “stretching” your chest the most, make sure to keep your...

@thedarkfigure I think thats your issue. Carnivore diet is not very good for weightlifting as carbohydrates are our main source of energy as humans. You would preferably have near 50% of your calories coming from carbs, unless on a restricted diet to lose weight. What you eat before your workout...

@faithfulfindings you totally look bigger dude, just do measurements for more accurate readings. i can easily see your back is more defined

@twhladyinlv Oh i for sure agree with you. Non all pumps are good, but a pump is usually a good sign. I could get a chest pump chest from flexing really hard, doesn't mean I grew at all. However, can you really say you just did a great set of ___ press if you don't even feel a chest pump? It...

@onetruefreedom if u never get a pump that excercise is probably not good for you, or your form is off.

@dancibutterfly Weigh yourself every morning or at least multiple times a week, track your calories ACCURATELY. Wait two weeks.

@justinebassowooa eat more calories and protein and stop taking every set to failure

@knowledgeisnotignorant here is what i’ve learned about different excercises since everybody is different. do you enjoy it? can you progressively overload it? does it give you a good pump? does it give you a good range of motion? if the answer is yes to those questions, it will be good for...

@pathofwarriors I do BB curls before rope curls personally, the same for cable OHE and pushdown. other than that it looks good. also quite a bit of volume, 10 sets for just biceps in 1 day? Thats 20/week, not counting back lifts. I would do near half that much volume. Maybe 12-14 sets / week.

@jbreyes777 The majority of the time, a pain in a biceps tendon has NOTHING to do with the biceps or biceps movements. It's usually an issue with the connecting tissue of the biceps long head and the shoulder. This can be caused by inflammation, both from illness or diet. It may also be from...

@jordanconnect Correct! 3-5 proper hard sets is plenty for growth. But you're basically going to the gas station every week and filling your tank to 3/4 full. Sure, you have gas but you could have easily just filled the tank full, why leave that 1/4 empty? By only doing 5 sets weekly you will...

@frustratedhusband i live for that burn. look forward to it every week.

@eil how did you do the same weight and reps at 3 rir 3 sets in a row? i find that even doing 2-3 RIR my reps drop down a few, and by set 3 i have to drop the weight
