More Strength Is More Muscle:
I’ve made more gains with this in the last 3 months than I have in 10
years, smashed my plateau! All the compounds, no bullshit. Follow the plan,
work hard, discipline your mind, squat hard enough to push the earth out of
orbit and eat like a beast, but eat clean goddamnit! If not all your hard
work will be for nothing. Maintain strict form or go home, compounds can
make or break you. Plus stretch daily, you don’t wanna bulk up and become a
dysfunctional walking vegetable, or worse.
you have to keep the same weight throughout the session (excluding the
warmup reps) you only increase from day to day but that should be well
explained in the website.
The only problem I see if the guys in the videos who do it is how comes
there skinny and not big
Strength does not necessarily equal size.
Can I know the different types/routine of stretches you do ?
Muscle tears suck, I’ve been there. Warming up is important. Never neglect
it.
+Mx2 Agreed
that accent….. makes the video even more interesting???
absolutely

StrongLifts 2.0 changes to the british announcer from can you spare a dime
The squat is amazing, but the deadlift is king.
Thé only reason to do squat is to improve deadlift.
I farted once while doing barbell row.
I left the gym
I cant get above 100 kg squat with 90 degree angled knees and 65 kg bench
and 100kg DL FOR 6 MONTHS NOW!! Im not progressing in mass nour
strength!!!!! Wut do?!?
+Ging Freecss testosterone.
Jamie legends that’s something to be proud of, hopefully you cleared the
room. bam open squat rack.
Je ne comprends cette rage du squat. Ce n’est pas le roi des exercices, je
dirais plutôt la reine vu son côté féminin. Par contre le sdt mérite bien
plus cette place. C’est l’exercice le plus complet en musculation (hors
haltérophilie et alors que ce n’est pas mon exercice préféré).
Du coup j’ai modifié ce programme que je trouve génial à une sauce qui me
convient. Au lieu de faire squat, DC et rowing puis squat, DM et soulevé de
terre, je fais DC, rowing, sdt puis DM, tractions lestées et front squat.
C’est la meilleure manière de bosser la poussée, le tirage et les jambes
sous 2 angles différents et complémentaires.
Phones have no place in the gym…unless you’re using the 5×5 app ???
true lol
Every big guy I’ve talked to in my gym said that they have never lifted
below 8 reps. They are always doing 8-15 reps, 45-90 secs between sets, and
they are constantly dripping with sweat.I may have to side with the big
guys at gym,.
+MLGKillimanjaroKid Pictures or GTFO
+MLGKillimanjaroKid science says 8-12 reps. You say 5 reps. If you can’t
show me your success with 5 reps training, than I am only left with science
to trust.
Of course you are smaller now. This program is not geared specifically
toward hypertrophy. However, once you are stronger, doing a higher rep
range heavy will make you bigger than you were before. You switched from
doing 180 reps per week to 30 – you reduced the volume by 6X – that’s
massive. However, you will be able to up the volume at a higher weight once
you gain strength, and will be much bigger than you are.
how often do u hydrate during training?
Just drink when you are thirsty. It isn´t a specific rule for that
No specific rule, but I like to sip a little water JUST A SIP between sets
or after every other set. Otherwise, a good rule of thumb is that you
should be urinating clear or light yellow every 2-3 hours throughout the
day.
how many times do I do this a week
3 days a week. ensure at least one day of rest in between workout days.
what if you do a set and you can’t complete it? just repeat that weight the
next time you do that exercise?
Yes, and if you fail 3 times you deload (reduce the weight)
deload 5 llbs? 10?
10 lbs, I believe
Correction – 10%
alright thanks.
would this program be good for a rugby player?
(15 years old, been lifting for about 1 month, outside centre)
Yes
I second that
Especially the overhead press, will help you to reduce chance for shoulder
injury which is pretty common in rugby
im 180 cm
70 to 72 kg
and i havent ever lifted before
is this good for me or shall i build some muscle before starting
i dont eat well i feel like i should gain some weight then start
or how ?
This is great for you. just start with a weight that is comfortable.
damn I would love for you to help me with my form ;)

should i squat more weight with above 90 degree angled knees form. or squat

Keep your form the same, always.+Ging Freecss
can you do cardio after this work out and on your off days,
Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday?
how do i use the fucking spread sheet you linked
I have a question. ive been wanting to get stronger but ive wanted to
improve my size too. for about a month I was doing a circuit workout 6x
reps benchpress, 14 rep curls, and 12 weighted lounges each leg. with
assistance exercises. I started this earlier this week, and my muscles
actually look smaller, I eat big and I take protein after each workout and
creatine, but I would like some help on my muscles being bigger too. thanks
