Sheiko was a fan of multiple pauses when performing squats and his guys could put up some insane numbers. I do like pausing for squats. I'm not a bit fan of paused deads but have used them in the past.
I'd like to find a way to put my Oly assisting lifts back into my training and I've been toyng with going to a 3 day split:
Tues - Lower
Thurs - Upper
Sat - Full Body
and then perhaps Sun - Oly Assisting ie. Snatch pulls/ high pulls from floor or hang, front squat, etc.
I may even be able to...
Still employing a carb rotation when it's comes to how I eat. Been doing this for 20 years and it's worked exceptionally well. I walk around with abs and don't have to work to hard if you ask me. It keeps me full and able to push my training too.
Diet is:
Mon - Low Day
Tues - High Day
Wed - Low...
I'll have to give that a try.
While pulling on Tues some dumb bitch literally got in my way and almost hit me which caused me to pull my hamstring. So, I dropped the 480 but the good news is my hamstring doesn't feel bad. I'll take it easy this week, then perform a recovery week and after I'm...
The single ply is also a sleeve it's just made from a material that is a lil stiff so you get some pop out of the whole. I haven't squatted in knee wraps in a couple years. I used to easily get 50+lbs out of my Titan Knee Wraps. They will definitely test your pain threshold though. You can't...
I'm most proud of the 465 squat I hit yesterday... Not because it's the most I've squatted. Hardly...I've hit 605 in sleeves and belt, walked out at 250. I'm most proud of it as I weighed in under 220 and hit 465 for an easy single. Earlier this year at 228, I hit an easy 505 and I can't wait to...
Post your diet b/c it may need a lot of work.
I would agree at your body comp do NOT bulk. You need consistent time training, eating, resting and YES do cardio, in season OR off season. No reason not to do at least 20min multiple times a week when you're gaining size.
Absolutely NOT. You should be performing A GOOD DEAL of hamstring work that works the attachment at both ends. Most are weak in the hams so focus on them and watch your squat and pulls go up.
As most of you know, I run 200mg/wk of Test and 90-120mg/wk of Deca. I'm thinking of changing the Deca. I haven't decided yet as I'm reading but thinking of subbing it out.
Funny enough many ask me if I have any libido issues with the Deca but I have literally zero issues whatsoever with that...
Very good point. AAS just helps to hold onto muscle while in a Kcal deficit. You need your diet in check and then it's just putting the puzzle pieces together (training, cardio, diet, rest, etc) and of course... patience.
Work on your ankle mobility to be able to hit depth easier. Also, try ducking your feet a bit to open your hips and make it easier to hit depth.
You want to draw your elbows down and not back. Think about performing a lat pulldown and get your elbows down to your sides.
Some wear oly shoes to...
