What's good viking dude

going to quebec in march, friend. also i might host a comp in chilliwack in december. I'll be meet director. Wanna come out for that :^)

also does your sister have an instagram? I think i follow her. she's hot.

You're missing the point. I'm just using user's stupid mentality against himself so that he fucks off.

And btw, 6min of sun exposure isn't exactly correct. There are a lot of "if"s there - for instance, you can't shower within an hour or two. Also, it depends on a lot of factors (see how the numbers change when you change a few things here: fastrt.nilu.no/VitD-ez_quartMED.html)

But I'm from the side that doesn't believe most people need to supplement vitamin D. I actually agree that 400-600 is enough for regular people and 800-1000 is fine for athletes.

Say hello to Quebec. Eat lots of good food. Chilliwack is forever away from me, lad. I'm planning on hitting up Provincials in 2018 tho.

I won't rule it out, might be off the island by that time; we'll see.

Yeah, I get you, but don't go sayin shit like this:

He's being an idiot, I get it, but no need to hyperbolize.

But what I said there isn't wrong.
It's all a matter of perspective.

If you ask me if I agree with what I said, I'll say no. But if you ask a russian olympic coach, he might just say yes.

>going to quebec
Enjoy being spat and pissed on lmao. Quebecois are some of the most insufferable people to be around. Bunch of entitled French shits

17th for sheiko is a meme routine for wankers

hashtag #MemeRoutine4Wankers

gtfo here user from WhatCulture

>Tfw I will never be a car collecting farmer/actor

I did sheiko before it was cool

I wanna move from Sheiko beginner to int medium load, how do I run a deload inbetween?

prep 1 of int med load starts lighter and slowly increases intensity over time.

You don't really need a deload unless you want one.

Don't let your dreams be memes.

nn ladsnlasses

Was planning on only running prep 1 then first week of comp, I'd really like one because I've ran beginner twice back to back now.

do the full comp cycle

Then you can do week two and three of the comp cycle. Should be plenty of rest.

Coming off beginner then?

Might skip it if that's the case Tbh

do the full comp cycle
Jesus look at the volume at the end its so boring

>not testing potential pr's
>not frothing at the mouth after you got anally raped by a russian man via google sheets to test them so you can make it harder
youre not ready for sheiko int load

But I'm testing PRs on the skills test

oh, right.

What I meant was, its very light towards the end

Yeah, for sure, I just don't want to spend an additional three weeks before moving on.

Guess I'll just start it up after and see how I feel.

do you understand those three weeks would be a deload

sheiko says do the program to the end and then you will be able to do another

...

It's never been cool except on the Internet

I do understand, I just don't know if it's necessary. I'm not that strong.

You're the squirmiest weasle I've ever seen on this site.

Have you ever outright admitted you were wrong without some sort of way to save face?

Naw, that would mean that everything else he said was wrong too. This dude taught weasels how to weasel.

Yes.
In fact, I do so almost everyday here in /plg/.
I admit I'm wrong without people even pointing out that I'm wrong.

To me, admitting a mistake is accepting new knowledge. And only sucking a dick is more satisfying than learning something new. :)

No, we're talking about when you get called out on your obvious bullshit. Fucking weasel. You ain't sheiko bro.

Yes, if I'm saying something that's wrong and someone points out, I have no fear in apologising for my mistake.
In fact, I think it's the mature thing to do, and it makes me feel good.

Not to be confused, however, with situations in which I'm not wrong. I don't think anyone should apologise for not being wrong, and instead should explain and try to pass on the knowledge if the other person is willing, by using logic, staying away from fallacies, and providing sources as necessary.

...

This has never happened though. I've only ever seen you correct your own mistakes because the only one who can is yourself.

No ego.

So... you and the guy who's been lifting for close to a decade - Lotus - get along then?

>this has never happened though

It has, though. You can use the archive and search for key words or sentences, using my username and tripcode as filter.

Here's a quick example, in pic related. The part on adductors that's patched over was a correction by an user.
Though with the knowledge I have now, I'd rewrite that entire portion. It really doesn't tell even half the story. But that's besides the point for now...

Sure, I think Lotus is a pretty cool dude.

That's a lot of writing for somebody who doesn't deadlift or coach deadlifting.

Making little to no progress while cuttins is a-ok because i wasnt making any progress while bulking either

ha ha ha

"IPF rules, hardest rules. Can't lift head, can't lift hips, full feet on the floor. Choose these rules, because there are a lot of different styles of benching, but if you train with the hardest style, every other style is going to be much easier for you.
Don't look for easy ways, look for hard ways. And the hardest way to bench press in powerlifting is the IPF rules."

- Mikhail Koklyaev, teaching how to bench press on a seminar

and niggas like weasley and the japs are still trying to cheat

wew

>implying that's not the most technically difficult way to bench

That's how rules work. If the competition is to bench as much as possible within the rules, people are going to take whatever legal advantage they can use.

Doesn't matter what the sport is.

No one ever answered me which is too bad. Does your gym have a successful powerlifter? If yes how often do you see them.

I have a soccer player at my gym and he lifts about 10 sessions per week.

Current one? No.

Former one? Probably two or three national level competitors. Plus about three more national-level Strongman competitors.

Reminder

...

How would you know?

haven't been to a gym with a competitive powerlifter in a while, used to go Auckland Uni gym though and that had a couple girls with good numbers, both asian chicks

>Auckland Uni

it was a top 50 school when I went :(
then Key's National government cut funding and ratings went down the shitter

still though, I enjoyed it

I'm not clowning the uni

I don't really understand the greentext then

drink your coffee earlier, shit before your workout

I don't want to be on your faggot train anyway.

Assholes.

ugh artorias is so fucking hard, I can't even get in more than 2-3 hits before he pancakes me repeatedly and I die

How does anyone listen to this and not just want to end their fucking life

Will hook grip destroy my thumbs?

yes, or they will get stronger. 50/50

This is what u get for banning me again

Nice one cool friend

Alan came out with new video saying low bar squats are better than high bar in everything. Thoughts?

so he changed his mind. He said before high bar in general is better since it engages quads more.

Why would a squat be better just because it engages quads more? By that logic I could say low bar is better because it engages the entire posterior chain, or I could say front squats are superior because they work the quads more.

hey dont shoot the messenger:

>tfw 65 kg OHP and 95 kg squat

wtf is wrong with my legs, squatting aint for me

>180kg sumo, 50 OHP
well it could be worse.

I just had the best session, did lots of max grip full arch bench, then some low bar squats, then some sumo deadlifts. Then I went home and watched my wife take big loads from these guys who come around every few nights while I cried in the corner. Just a typical Thursday night for me

If you grip properly and build it up over time it wont

I DL 230kg with hookgrip no problems, it just hurts the skin on my thumb a little but you gotta stop being a bitch

I don't know who you're talking about and I didn't watch the video, but squats are a quad-centric lift, and you can't do nearly as much volume with front squats. I don't necessarily agree with the message, but I see the logic.

Because the quads are used in everything and the positioning of the torso is more natural

Highbar has more carryover to sports

>inb4 why not front squat then
Front squats barely engage the quads more and you are more limitated in other areas(like upperback gives out quick)

Just started The Crippled God.

Now I know what you're thinking, and I need to just say that I took a short break from the main series to catch up on ICE's books.

I'm a bit reluctant to read as well, because I don't want it to end.

anyone has experience with norvegian volume program?

expect bicep gains

Broke babby's first proper milestone today lads

500 total at 83

Thankyou for reading my blog please subscribe

>tfw 120kg bench 135kg squat
I dropped sheiko only because I was worried I'm gonna bench more than I squat soon. Benching 3 times a week is amazing, but don't forget about your legs lads

Why sandbag your bench gains for that dumb reason.

Just go for it lad.

Well I was also feeling really burned out, whenever I was about to bench I wanted to kill myself, so decided to take a break.

jeff?

No its me Jason

love the videos
keep it up

Send me the link to the video you liked the most

>2nd day of caloric deficit
>strain my pec

just fucking kill me will ya

You haven't truly made it in PL if you aren't sponsored by monster.

I actually hated most of ICE's bar Stonewielder, which I thought was the only one that didn't feel like Erikson-lite.

I'll be happy to start Dancer's Lament though, apparently he's trying his own thing.

First on my shelf is the next book in Miles' Cameron's Red Knight series, it's good shit

I thought there was no money in PL

id let her ski all over me
