    Please critique my programme: moving from the RR to SM's PPL

    Hi I'm looking for feedback on my take on SM's PPL programme. I'm 35yo male, 5'10. I've been doing RR for 10 months but am moving on as the only way I was gaining was by doing 5 sets of everything and this made the workout 2–2.5 hours long which was proving mentally unsustainable. My goals...

    @jermyn Yeah I feel like this is the way seeing as I hate too much direct work haha

    @ibken Ah I wish I could do them on my fingers. Haha. I had heard that the short arms thing was maybe a bit of a myth though? And that it’s just a matter of building the scapular depression strength until you can do with palms flat? Not saying you don’t know yourself, of course, just something I...

    @ibken Nice though. I feel like soon as you get your first full L sit, 1 second long or whatever, it feels like such an achievement and then rest comes in time!

    I’ve got a love/hate relationship with L sits. I love being able to do them, but I find the dedicated training for them psychologically traumatic. Lol. I’ve had periods where I worked consistently building up my numbers with dedicated sets, but now I just try one every other day, and that’s...
