This.

I think Bhanky's adamantium filled knees are causing the scale to read high.

Compacted fecal matter in his colon must also be adding a few pounds.
Are you implying that Hanky is full of shit sir?  :D

In amongst you pansies arguing about bodyweight and lack of comprehension of FFMI I squatted 205 lbs for two reps last week.

I weighed 131 lbs.

My new goal is a double bodyweight squat this year.

Hi Wes !   🙋‍♀️

Im benching with the big man tonight !

Good lifting.

Good lifting.

Thank you !

Now that I have a better idea where to place the bar and tighten my core, it makes the reps more stable.

I was reading the thread about the Vince Gironda 8 X 8 routine and was wondering if there is merit to it ?

Not if you are trying to increase your max strength.

Good for bodybuilding though.  Vince said to only use it for 4-6 weeks I believe, very short rests between sets, even as little as 10 seconds.

For max strength keep reps per set at 5 or less.  15 reps total work sets is a good volume like 3 sets of 5, 5 sets of 3, 54321, etc.  Rest 3-5 minutes between sets or even longer.

You are developing neural efficiency.  Training your body to more powerfully contract the muscles.

Look up cycling.  Doesn't have to be complicated.  Basically take 3 steps forward, 2 steps back, repeat kind of thing.  Progress until you get stuck, then back off, start climbing again, repeat.

Patience Yago, patience.  Avoid injury.

WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BRING EXTREME ASTROPHYSICS INTO IT????  Brian "God of GetBig" Handkerchief says you are making things way too complicated.  This is the 10-step recipe for complete domination:

1) 1 Set of curls
2) 1 trip to bathroom for bloody shit #1
3) 1 set of curls
4) 1 pic for Getbig
5) 1 set of pushdowns
6) 1 trip to bathroom for blood shit #2
7) 1 set of pushdowns
8) 1 trip to scale to measure progress
9) 1 set of leg extensions (don't want to burn out your cns)
10) Post on getbig that your legs/arms/chest/shoulders/etc are making HUGE improvements

If I can do 225 lbs now for one rep that is only 35 lbs away.

But you’re right…I should just give up and get back in the kitchen.

Why is it you didn't know about Mike Israetel.   How the hell do you fit your ego in the same room as your withered body?   Oh, so posting pics equates to knowing everything?  So we should all be attention whores like you?  Wow, what a concept.

- Your fight didn't count because it wasn't in the UFC and you weren't heavyweight.
- You cherry picked your ONE ShOW because there weren't competitors there and thought you would win but still lost.  You suck.

Mike is a nobody. No one has any new ideas in the last 50 years. It is all the same old regurgitated shit. The Greeks were doing progressive resistance training 2k years ago.

I have to agree here. Each Youtuber just regurgitates the same old crap.
People have known how to do this stuff for centuries. Only thing that really changes are doses, protocols, compounds, etc.
Lifting and eating are second nature to some of us.

You think Bobby Pandour needed YT and Isreatel to grow muscle and be strong?  ::)
Charles Rigoulot??  Sandow?

Comical yard-barker snake-oil men these J00tubers.  ::)

And you are somebody?  Its not about 'new ideas' its about realizing that bullshit stuffed down the throats by the 'muscle mags' is often bullshit.  Go watch his video on protein intake (even though you won't).

Ironic you mention the greeks...
