This is a good thread....but some of the programs are probably not a good idea for almost anyone on here, lol. German volume training is a great example of what NOT to do to yourself haha. For any level, its quite unnecessary. My picks, and this is only one guys opinion, would be anything from GZCL, Greg Nuckols and co,…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5zrloYWwxw here is the chris duffin video. this is my favourite squat instruction video i've even watched.

a few good tips already in this thread! good stuff. 1. those shoes. take them off. 2. bracing, bracing, bracing. look for a crazy guy on Youtube by the name Chris Duffin. he has a tonne of stuff. he also will help you understand general setup for the squat. 3. knees out. letting our knees cave in is forcing you to lean…

haha this is great. gained only 1kg. :( i estimated around 7000 calories on Xmas day. 4200 the day after(i went and trained also)...and 3200 yesterday haha. Back to normal today. probably wont cut down on regular calories :smile: and just let it be. i'm sitting on maintenance at the moment, with some days a small deficit.…

i'll say hello! Tim here. I now compete in PA(p\Powerlifting Australia) which is an IPF affiliated fed, in the 105KG class. Only completed the one comp so far going 172.5/130/235 for a 537.5kg (1182.5lbs) total @ 102kg (224.4lbs) back on December 5th. Previously i competed with GPC Australia, doing i think 5 meets,…

The rkc plank is fuggin challenging. I dont do regular plank anymore much, sometimes in between other stuff for a laugh. 3 mins is easy. I dont do much ab work at all to be honest...but I do ALOT of squatting...paused squats wreck my abs. Haha
-
been researching this quite alot this past couple of days. I'm in favour of using it. just ordered some. its so damn cheap too...250 odd serves for 40 bucks i think. stacking it with creatine. there has been a few articles put up on PUBMED that are worth a look. from what i understand, cycling it on and off equally might…

you still reset. the weight is light, treat it like its heavy. its for creating the explosive habit.

cool idea. 90kg RAW, GPC australia. 502.5 comp total. 526.5 recent gym total. Dont have another 3 lift comp for quite a while, but have a push/pull in december. looking to go 120/240 and to squat 190 wrapped before the year is out for a 550 gym total.
-
always been my train of thought also chris.
-
haha. had a coughing fit the other week as i got out of bed. almost all of the abs showing up each rep. :p
-
please stop using the word "tone"
-
just work on the flexibility. if i can do it...anyone can do it. :)
-
yeah simple is the best when programming. seems ours numbers went up inline with eachother....so that says something. (me and davey running the same program). pulled 227.5kg the other night. good ol' 500lbs.
-
its a good Q&A from the big guy this one. was even better being there in person. ;)
-
good numbers being thrown around here eh. good stuff people! pulled 210kg x 3 x 3 last friday night. 462lbs in the old money. this week i'll be pulling three singles @ 223kg for a pb. and the week after should see me pull 235kg (517lbs) for a total of 15kg added to my PB from 10 weeks ago.
-
Nice jugs. All i take is protein and dextrose to supplement my diet, and creatine(dem gainz). I do find creatine helps. done many back to back trials on and off. definately feel better/perform better when on.
-
i do em every day. well every lifting day, well 3 out of 4. harder ab work on squat and deadlift day is the general idea. easier stuff on bench day(else come deadlift day i'm too sore, lol.)
-
my current leg day: - Squat. - paused high bar squat - front squat - high rep high bar squat (20's ect) Its fun. it hurts.
-
I can vouch for sheiko re increasing bench. its the ONLY thing that has worked for me. for interests sake i upped my percentages for bench and its working a treat. IE my true 1rm was 105kg, but i've set my current program to 115kg. working well. have a comp in 2 weeks and more than expect to hit 115. hit 105 for a triple…
-
going well mate! great to see, congrats on the 3rm PR too man. i'm running this method from July. Looking forward to the change of pace... currently running Sheiko...for the 4 consecutive cycle. :P
-
Your advice is walking? Lets get some bavkground first. Do you weight train at all?
-
Wake up get up teeth and hair get dressed Let dog out Grab lunch Head to work.
-
anyone found a feed online? i dont do fox. :p
-
also agree. my bench and squat are moving very steadily north now with the higher frequency and much higher volume of sheiko(yes). chris can attest to my difficulties with "normal" linear programs... :p
-
not really two months. 6 weeks. one week of random stuff. 4 weeks of sheiko. one deload. comp. :p
-
oh and you weigh 196lbs o dont go putting yourself through a 1200 cal per day diet...it wont work (well it will, for a while, then it will stall). work out what you need each day to maintain your weight, then eat 20% below it. include your exercise calories.
-
i would put serious thought into buying an adjustable kettlebell. much bigger benefit from something like i beleive. Its ok to start out with something like 30ds or whatever for a short time to help condition yourself to exercise etc, but to ensure you maintain your lean body mass as you lose the fat pounds you'll need to…

quite the transformation! well done. good numbers there too...
