@anonymous_christian I’ve found the same, but I’m curious to know what you don’t follow that they say?

@serbian_w0lf Curious, is your only problem with it that it looks boring or that you think it’s limiting their results too? Definitely agree training like that can take the fun out of training at times.

@marianna26 You use 20-40 lbs for both legs? I think Monkey Feet or OmniStrap could be a cool way to load these on a bench. Lengthened-bias too.

@rogerstees What’s the stuff beginners should avoid? Slow eccentrics? Pauses in the stretched position? I’m seriously asking and not trying to be rude. Also, I thought it’s more important for beginners to use perfect form since they won’t have to correct sloppy technique later on (when it’s...

@terqiouse Maybe they are tight, thanks for the advice. I actually found when I go too deep on hip hinges it really aggravates one of my piriformis muscles (or some other glute muscle on one side). I’m hoping it will eventually get better so I can eventually add a type of leg curl.

@dawn16 Not at the moment because of the soreness and leg curls are optional/a bonus in my routine. I have access to a Nordic bench which allows for higher reps (something like this), but figured I’d bring them back in once I stall on the hip hinges. Good mornings feel great for me, but I can...

@dawn16 Thanks for the reply! I do RDLs on lower A and good mornings on lower B. You think I should replace 1 with Nordic curls? I was debating dropping the hinges down to 2 sets and adding 2 sets of Nordic curls each workout

@jimkbeau I have this with hamstrings and only for RDLs or good mornings. Curious what people recommend for this case because I just do each one for 3 sets a week on separate lower-body days

@sbrodhagen Curious, how does being too parallel limit loads too much on bb rows? Also, are you talking about RP guys doing traditional rows or flexion rows? I know with flexion rows you do have to drop the weight a ton.

@marknc Curious, what don’t you like about his stuff?

@ainigma Do you know where his insistence on using full ROM came from? I’d like to know what led him to recommending that in the first place. Also, could you elaborate how those lateral raises he demonstrated tire out the front delts? I assume you mean front delts would be the limiting factor...

@cbrooks624 Curious, what does Dr. Mike get wrong?

@holoman Hmm, so basically for things that are more shortened-biased (which for me seem to have more unpredictable failure points), going to failure is probably best while other exercises with predictable failure points use the RIR-system?

@holoman I get this with Bent-over Rows and Upright Rows. How do you gauge RIR on these types of exercises?

@kvolm When you say hand-supported row here, do you mean something like Meadows Row or 1-arm DB row where you row with one hand and the other hand is on your thigh or bench?

@kvolm Hey just wanted to follow up with you on this because you are always giving great answers to most of my questions. I'm not trying to be optimal or anything, but was curious how do Landmine T-bar Rows (Arnold-style no chest support) compare to traditional Barbell Rows? If you were to use...

@kvolm Curious, would the Smith machine row be at least slightly less taxing on the lower back than barbell rows? Especially if you set the bar to rest on the stopper at the bottom.
