Thanks /plg/ you helped me get my dead end bench up to a better standard :)
Since January gone from 100kg x 1 or 2 year long plateau to 95kg for 12 reps and 127.5kg for 1
Hoping for 3 plate by end of the year.
David Scott
Is it normal to get periods where you feel extremely fucking lazy? I just had coffee and I'm laying down right now but supposed to be lifting. It's always fucking squat rep max days too, I think it's a mental thing even thought I don't mind it when I'm doing them.
Bentley Thomas
Should I be using knee compression support when squatting?
Landon Richardson
It's preference, I like them because I feel more stable and I have had knee injury before so minimizing risk of injury is important to me.
Easton Rivera
Looks like the stoned kid in super troopers
Wyatt Nguyen
What do you guys think of only deadlifting from a defecit in place of normal diddies
Chase Powell
SGDL vs Deficit for assistance off floor? Struggling to keep tightness
Elijah Price
I was asking because while I don't have pain in knees or previous injuries, my right knee is making crunchy and cracking noises whenever I am squatting.
Jace Allen
If you have access to trying a pair before you buy go for it.
A lot of guys here use them, and there is no negative to wearing them only pros.
Oliver Morgan
As a 6'5" guy, what could my potential lifts be? Greg cuckol's objective strength standards says I could bench 200kg+ at 122kg body weight
Benjamin Wood
Glad I could help You should not unless you want to look like a fool
Ryan Wood
Height matters very little once you're past the ~180cm treshold, at which point greater height may even be a disadvantage. But even still, body structure and frame size are far, far more important than anything else.
Isaiah Gonzalez
Why does it matter? Just try harder
David Wilson
Gf's dad caught us banging last night, lads. Fairly awkward
Benjamin Barnes
if you arent excited to be doing a one rep max squat which I assume is probably only something you do once a quarter of a year then this hobby might not be for you? collect rocks instead?
John Hall
Nah, no access. Gonna just have to buy a pair. Better safe than sorry, wanna avoid injuries.
Luis White

Nolan Mitchell
Why are you reading what stupid shit Greg Cuckols writes anyways? its just narcissistic busy work as my friend once said
Christopher Jackson
Did you ask him if he wanted to join in?
Cameron Roberts
>Is it normal to get periods where you feel extremely fucking lazy? Yes. When you don't have a job or any adult responsibilities, you'll get periods of being a big piece of shit that can do nothing.
Luke Murphy
It's very brave of you to help coach someone beyond what you are capable of yourself
Robert Martin
I AM this general if we were to be specific, you're talking to the main cog in the machine, the "big gun", apart from a few trips who barely post like isley, MA, etc all anonymous are 16 year old children, so you'd be best to listen to me, a little word of advice, got it sport?
Alexander Gomez
Ok, thanks for the tip, "big gun"
What are your lifts? You must be really strong.
Please respond
Jonathan Lee
But I am you. I just stole your identity. Now you have to listen to me, boy.

^an example of a 16 year old child What would you like to know? Ask and you shall receive >inb4 what are your lifts
that wont help you
Alexander Allen
what did you do to unstick it?
Cooper Bailey
What are the negatives of sleeves.
Easton Hughes
>Se╬an Why are you too insecure to share your best lifts?
Landon Gonzalez
You have to buy them and they smell bad after a while
Brody Jenkins
You look like a fool not telling you because it seems to make you upset so that's a large reason why
Elijah Rodriguez
wait wait wait whoa is this why you always call isley a weasel? is it like a joke because you are projecting being a weasel?
No I call him a weasel because we made multiple bets in which he lost the bet and failed to honour said bets >Wear long trousers :) thats even worse this is a projection
Jordan James
Did you post this on reddit yet?
Jaxon Torres
>Wash them you tramp. Nah, I don't care
Charles Butler
You going to college this year?
Christopher Russell
GOOD LIFT
Caleb Hughes
yes
Cooper Murphy
Yo where did you get that board press attachment?
Levi James
Just get a BENCHBLOKZ™
David Price
Where at? What are you going to learn when you grow up,
Joshua Walker
I'm supposed to do 95% for an amrap to determine my training max for next week. Anything over 1 rep means an increase but I notice on my 95% sets I fold over more on the way up and get a little knee caving. Would you say this is acceptable or not?
Gabriel Ward
>tfw addicted to porn it's not affecting my life in any way but I just realized how weak willed and beta it is that I can't even go a week without beating my meat, even if I try.
Cameron Phillips
Will a deload help with back pain, /plg/? I could only get a babby weight for 2 reps that I was supposed to get for 8 today
Nicholas Cruz
Thanks to whoever recommended me Lasceks book on the Texas method.
It's pretty cool, answered most of my questions.
Thomas Price
Alexis Bledel is near perfect.
Elijah Sullivan
Stop watching porn. Jerk off a couple times a week. Stop the autism.
Jaxon Perry
It's acceptable sure but if you do a AMRAP-set with bad form and then base your training max off that set your training next week might be to heavy for you to keep good form on all sets/reps.
Gabriel Martin
Does anybody know where to get a copy of PPST 3rd Edition?
I can't get it through Amazon because of reasons
Mason Miller
I like the mom more t b h
Wyatt Carter
When I first watched it, me too. But Alexis grew on me, especially in the later seasons where she hides her forehead behind her hair and in Sin City.
Daniel Powell
Check powerliftinggeneral.com
Jonathan Roberts
Can you make gains and get bigger on a recomp?
I am trying to decide whether i should recomp or just bulk slowly, i want to gain more strength and mass but im like 20% bf.
Im more bothered about getting more mass and strength than being lean right now, i dont plan on ever cutting but will do a recomp when i want to get leaner.
Easton Butler
What can I do to up my presses towards the end of SS? I've already deloaded, and my bw and squat+dead are still going up so it's not a diet or rest issue, I feel recovered as well- even on a day that I feel great I can't hit 3x5.
Should I just up the volume, say do the heavy 3x5 then a lighter 3x8-10 or so after? Consensus seems to be that presses generally respond well to higher volumes on a stall. I'm already doing weighted dips as well.
Grayson Morales
>More bothered about getting more mass and strength than being lean Then there's your answer. Bulk my dude. You can make gains/get bigger on a recomp, but it'll take longer than cutting and bulking.
Dylan Lee
>up my presses >on ss
hahahahah
Oliver Walker
Cailer Woolam has the greatest deadlifting leverages of all time
Nicholas Hernandez
Do not bulk unless you want to end up like G cup tits here.
Jaxon Cruz
i got that book on my floor
what page u wanna see
Nathaniel Murphy
Trying to roll the Texas Method for 4 days a week and put in quite a bit of hypertrophy work, I don't think theres really one specific page for that.
Cooper Cook
whats your email? i can send over or fax the chapter on it
Anthony Reed
yes, definitely increase the volume for the presses
the deload 10% and build back up logic comes from the idea that stalling will be cause by accumulated fatigue, which is totally true most of the time on SS - but only for the lower body
for the presses, it's a lack of sufficient volume that won't be fixed by deloading and building back up (you get stuck at maybe 5lbs higher than you did last time, if that)
Cooper Hill
Fax over a book page? You think that will make anyone stronger?
Lol. It's not rocket science to do volume and try hard. Maybe you're just GDEs
Liam Campbell
How much should i eat if the only training i do is Starting Strength 2 times a week? Eat heavy on training days, lower on none training days but keep protein high?
So you are taking a brutally hard power lifting routine and adding a bunch of hypertrophy work in it?
Lucas Nelson
Ya well I already hit 145 on bench on week 3, so I know its working. just need to see a couple of those pages.
Brayden Cox
Who is this???
Logan Sanders
Fuck, now I wanna go watch that stupid girl show again. It's indisputably the comfiest shit ever
Sebastian Murphy
kg?
Justin Sanchez
Ignore the other guy, but Im thinking about switching the intensity day out for a volume day (5x10) which I believe is suggested in the book.
Already got the first edition and read through it, just looking to get the 3rd edition.
Nah man, you don't have to go through all that effort, I'll cook something up by myself.
Mason Jenkins
Don't watch the new season. It's really bad. The "real" gilmore girls has arguably the best dialogues ever written for a tv show.
Aaron Ross
You mean the 4 episode one?
Jace Anderson
Yeah. I watched the first two episodes with my ex gf and they are horrible. Trying to fit in every character come hell or high water. No storyline, a brutal break in rory's character development and so on. Keep it in good memory, don't let the memory be destroyed by that ;).
William Price
here you go. Third edition filedropper com/practicalprogrammingforstren-markrippetoe
Carter Hall
What is "recomp" and how to do it?
Andrew Howard
Goddamn, am I the only one that finds Paris crazy bangable?
Jace Rodriguez
Our boy jason blaha has some videos on it.
Jeremiah Morris
They're not thaaaaat bad, still pretty comfy. Richard being dead hurts me deep though.
Aaron Bailey
Yes.
Jonathan Kelly
Ok, thanks for saving me lad
Must've felt nice to watch it with a gf. Every time I mention gg to a girl I get laughed at.
Joseph Perez
Nigger do you think I am stupid? I just haven't been to Veeky Forums in years and back then recomp was not a word here. Not gonna fall for your Blaha tricks.
Liam Wood
recomp is nerd terminology for spinning your wheels accomplishing nothing when you could have been a lot leaner or a lot bigger if you committed to one goal or the other
Wyatt Sanders
Thanks lad, you're the best
Bentley Brown
It's not a method he invented. If you actually want to recomp by gaining muscle and losing fat at the sam time then follow his incstructions that he stole from someone else.
If you'd rather focus on one individually, then just cut and bulk my dude
Brayden Hill
>tfw this gilmore girls discussion is making me want to watch it >tfw afraid to watch it on my mom's netflix account in case she thinks I'm a fag
Jonathan Russell
You are a doublefag
Lincoln Barnes
Should I stick to 585lbs for my deadlifts until I can do full 20 rep sets or should I call it a day with my 12 rep sets and add another plate to each side. I'm anxious to get over 600lbs.
Jacob Rivera
I didn't even bother to watch the third and fourth episode.
My pleasure. It's my ex gf and we were past the comfy stage at that point... Apart from that, I always claim that GG is the best TV show and nobody gave me a weird look for it. You just have to say it self-confident and convinced ;).
