Just gonna do full body

I just choose something and do it.

If I have time or energy to do something else, I do it.

Sometimes I do 2 sets, sometimes 5 or 6.

Sometimes I squat every day, sometimes once a week.

I just don't see the point in isolation exercises.

If you get your deadlift to 550, your bench to 325, your row to 365, and your pull-up to 95 lbs.

The entirety of your arms, chest and back will get bigger.
>>
Usually the larger muscles will give in before the smaller. An example being if you're doing rows, your back will give in before your biceps will. So if you were to just do rows then your biceps would never be fully worked to fatigue due to your back giving in first.
>>
>>77153026
It doesn't matter, if you do 5 sets of 8 on rows with 365, you probably have good biceps.
>>
>>77153032
Sure but not in comparison to the rest of your body. Imagine your have two guys:
Guy A: Can do 5 sets of 8 on rows 365lbs. Has a slightly smaller back but more developed biceps from doing isolations.
Guy B: can do the same weight but doesn't do isolations so most of the weight is lifted by his back/rear delts.

Guy A will look better and more well-rounded.

It's not a massive difference and you're not really wrong, but a lot of people would prefer doing the extra isolation sets to have nicer looking arms.

You also have to consider the work it would take to get to those massive lifts. Isolation exercise will make it easier to progress and break through platue's
>>
>>77153017
>>77153026
I do my compound exercise plus one set of an isolation for the secondary muscle.

Pulldown from full outstretch of arm/shoulder overhead in internal rotation & protraction, exactly like lead climbing reach or volleyball spike, just the beginning od that motion, lean back, flex abs - will disengage lats to the fullest

Bench will give you deformed short stiff pecs and injured traps and rhomboids that will roll shoulders and lock thoracic in permanent flexion

Barbell
Idk why you said flat instead of barbell since thats the alternative

So how important is sleep actually, everyone talks about it but is getting like 6 hours really that much different to getting 8

Anecdotally when I get less than 6 hours for a few nights in a row, I feel like shit and my workouts are less intense.

>>77140210
lack of sleep shortens your telomeres, the caps at the end of your dna. It's one of the most important things you can do for your health and longevity. Sleeplessness is usually caused by mental weakness of some kind combined with too much caffeine. It's only halfway broken down in 5 hours. It takes 25 hours to totally break it down. You are a slave to a pesticide most of the time, and it also has a shit ton of banned synthetic pesticides because its grown in brown people bumfuck countries.
>>
>>77140308
>stop eating 3 hours before bed time
creepy billionaire longevity nerd stops eating at 11am or 12 noon. The earlier the better for sleep quality. I've been doing 5pm and its going great. This is how I used to eat for years growing up, its only when I moved to US that I picked up bad habits along with reflux, gastritis, weight gain and sadness
>>
We are the only animals who have this conversation. We only have this conversation because we invented clocks, and factories, artificial light and screens. On top of that, modern humans have underdeveloped jaws and narrow airways, and that fucks up sleep quality. If you're a fat fuck that fucks up sleep quality even more. And most modern houses/apartments have tremendous amount of mold and dust and people don't get enough fresh air, and also people have tons of allergies now.

I promise you, if you had unlimited free time (no job), but were also denied access to screens and artificial light, and you also slept in a room with an open window, and you had the personal conviction to ignore all social pressures to "be somewhere" at a certain time, you would literally get the perfect amount of sleep 100% of the time.

The question of "what's the perfect amount of sleep?" would then appear to you for what it is: ironclad evidence of humanity's brutal and inescapable enslavement by the industrial-technological complex.

You should think about this when the alarm clock rips you from your slumber. That sound is the sound of slavery

who is this goofy retard

are those high end/expensive gyms like equinox worth the cost? why are they so expensive?

I know on the other end of the spectrum there are those gyms that are like $10/mo and they are a toss up since the barrier to entry is so low. Is there a good middle ground for gym quality and price?

You you prefer to slide off 3+pl8s or to have them leaned? I do not care that someone is gonna play dumb and sue the gym if they were that stupid they shouldn't be allowed near equipment thatn can kill them or others. You might as well run a lap around the gym between sets so that you can't sue the gym for having poor cardiovascular health.

>>77152818
Rich people typically hog all the space in poor gyms by colleges to try and pick up women hoping they have an only fans driving their nice car. It's a complete nightmare, a 1hr session takes 2hrs minimum at my local gym and they don't open up a 2nd one. It's more of a swingers club and prostitution front than a gym at this point.

the most high-end place I've gone to was a lifetime fitness gym on a friend's day pass when my gym was getting remodeled and I looked it up after membership there was about 2 hundo a month. The biggest thing I noticed is the equipment was way better it was all eleiko barbells/weights and there were 6+ racks and it was way less crowded compared to the LA fitness I was going to at the time. also they had nice punching bags the ones at my old gym were always shittily set up

my LA fitness after the remodel got a bunch of rogue equipment and they went from 3 to 6 racks but it was always more crowded and I ended up moving anyway. I would consider going to a gym that's more high end just so I can use better equipment and not have to wait but I am also paying for a muay thai gym membership so I am already paying a lot per month on gym fees
