and if you still feel strong. Try defining gravity, lift your legs up for the tuck lever row. Recommend doing them with gymnastic rings for full ROM and balanced growth
I always loved dips and been doing them at the end of my upper body workouts . I wish I have a belt so I could add weights but for now it’s going really DEEP stretch of the pecs and man it feels good.
I think a normal bench press would be superior for straight hypertrophy since you are simply more stable in the practice. The legs simply allow you to stop shifting from side to side which is annoying and especially with heavy weights on top sests this matters
Your program got me from 3 year long plateau where I literally thought that something is wrong with me. I was training hard af to no veil before. Now I hopped on your novice program and started finally eating (I did KB program before and tried to stay pretty much ripped all year round) and I am experiencing amazing newbie linear progression gains. Thank you man.
I've been doing them the last few months. So far, I'm curling 65x10. They really are great. It always feels like the biceps have to work much harder with straight bar curls than any other type of curl.
The truth is, people don’t do high reps because it sucks. Every rep is another mental battle. Most people don’t want to do that. They cope by pretending they’re getting progressive overload just so they can keep their reps low. Respect for calisthenics.
When I start doing Peacher curls I did them 2 times only my normal biceps curl got much stronger and I could now I can lift 15kg on biceps curl, I use to lift only 7.5kg or 10kg, but now I'm able to do many reps with 12.5kg and some reps with 15kg after only 2 sessions of peacher curls. BUT does this lead to more biceps gains? NO, in fact my biceps got smaller when I dropped barbell curl for Peacher curls. And I think the reason is Biceps fatigue, does this means I will stop doing peacher curl ? No but I will do both now peacher and barebell and drop dumbbell curls.
Never understood the V-bar. It’s so narrow, I feel very uncomfortable because I have broad shoulders. I like more an easybar hanging from the cable tower than this fucking VBar
Still improving. I surprised myself by doing 3x3 at 225. I rested three days and lifted 1x5 at 225 !!! I’ll be 70 in August. Leukemia is not holding me back.
Alex can or should you max on a bench Variation one workout and then an ohp Variation 48-72 hrs later? Is this still not advised? Different lift. Your thoughts are welcome.
