@greg67 a)maybe don't go max reps, failure -1. This is because you can accumulate more volume across multiple sets. b)like others have said supersets aren't that ideal for strength due to the quality of sets being not as good. If you still wanna save time I'd say do 1 set of pullups, rest 2...

@warrenmjones85 If you're plateaued using things like periodization and assistance exercises like pseudo planche pushups, handstand push-ups or weighted dips, or FL rows and weighted pullups for FL can help, instead of using all your sets on the static. Might be wrong but probably no one on...

@warrenmjones85 Unfortunately I really think that's the most likely answer here. Couple other factors too but mainly this, plus probably 90%of their time to dedicate to recovery. Advanced athletes have a really big work capacity and can recover from a lot of work. Don't know their stats off...

@harmonmarie In terms of absolute safety- barbell overhead press. But honestly all those exercises you mentioned are relatively safe exercises. The danger is usually with doing too much too soon. Also a potential issue when people train a lot of chest but don't train their back

@power1 I don't have the E-book but having watched a lot of his content as well as bald omniman I know for sure it's going to be really good if gaining muscle is your goal. Like most people here have mentioned, the best comparison I have is body by rings from fitnessFAQs. If strength training...

@khohanguc Oh rip haha great minds think alike

@khohanguc Tom Merrick made a vid about the Bendy Big 5 Basically pike, pancake, front splits, side splits, bridge

@andraus Sure, that works too. Could also do a third exercise and do 3 sets each

@brohoho I'm sure it works and if that's your thing. Personally though, the 3x8-12 you mentioned for me works much better since it is easier to implement and progress. Rather than do a crazy 30x5 routine or a 30 down workout I would just.. do something like 3x10, add weight each session or...

@andraus I think you'd be better off doing them all together in 1 session, 3x a week. Dips, handstand push-ups, weighted pullups, FL rows, single leg squat, KB cleans. Start w 2 sets of everything and build up to 3. Mainly since repeating certain movements is very important for strength and...

@elyonathan85 No, you're not doomed. Caveat: it'll probably take some time, you'll need to work with a good sports PT who can set up a good program to help you build the load tolerance and gradually return to working out. Structural damage is not always representative of your capabilities or...

@davonte20 I'd probably consider a bit more movement variety. If the volume is fine for you instead of say 3 sets of pushups and pullups, 2 sets of pushups and pullups, 1-2 sets of dips and rows. Better to get in movements in multiple angles rather than just invest in one movement Could also...

@ashley03 Math's not my strongest point, haha. However this video might interest you: This athlete, geekclimber has really gone indepth about the math and done the math stuff so you might really like this stuff. He's also done other videos about the front lever and the math is a big part of...

@deborah123 How major is it? I've seen you mention a lot of the strength standards are for average height, 150 lbs( don't remember if you quoted a specific stature) I'm 183 cm, 80kgs(6 ft/175 lbs) and like especially the pushing skills simply take forever to progress

@aaharpervas If you don't trust your doc, just see another doc..

@aaharpervas Yeah definitely see a doc. I'd reccomend cutting down to 1-2 sets 2x a week or something for now. Seems like could be other things like overall stress, poor diet, lifestyle etc that could just be affecting your recovery. Know you mentioned seeing a doc but def go back if you have...
