>>75697931You are bequeathed 5292 sq ft, what would you do with it?
>>75697938The shed is already divided into two equal halves. I'd keep the first half as is with room for the tractor, lawn care, vehicles, woodshop, tools, etc.
>>75697943But the back half will be outfitted with gym equipment.Wrestling mat with rope, peg board, and various calisthenics equipment.Cardio equipment.Full length turf for sled and agility work.Strongman implements.Finished off with your typical gym loadout of racks, benches, cables, full rack DBs, KBs, medicine balls, slam balls, and wall balls.When the weather is cooperating, double East side doors and one South side door open up to bring in that nice Midwest fresh air or allow easy access to move your routine outside.

>>75697931THREADLY, RELEVANT, and HIGH QUALITY REMINDER for you unlifting ANON CHODEs to post body/lifts and get a trip. Tripping is the only way anyone will believe anything you have to say about anything. And only if you demonstrate at least one of the following:>A squat in excess of both 2.5 times bodyweight AND 500 lbs>A deadlift in excess of both 2.5 time bodyweight AND 500 lbs>A bench press in excess of both 1.5 times bodyweight AND 350 lbs>A LMAO4PLAET or greater row from the ground>A Log "Press" of at least 240 lbs and 1.15 times bodyweight>A front squat equal to or greater than LMAO4PLAET and 1.75x bodyweight>A body that /fit/ won't roundly criticize (good fucking luck)If you can't manage at least one of these, shut the fuck up, go to the gym, and try harder

>>75698765>i'm obesewe are aware
Yesterday I did 275 (85%) bench for 3x3. I originally meant to do 5 sets of 3 but my third set was a grind on the last rep => I knew I wasn’t going to be able to do a 4th set. I did 260 (80%) 3x5 last week easilyAm I fatigued or is my max inflated, two weeks ago I easily repped out 270 5x3
>>75699057It means you are gay and retarded.Remedy: Post about Bobby every day for at least a week.
>>75699075I’m a “look don’t touch” kinda guy. I merely observe the lolcow while other anons rile him up and trick him into sharing embarrassing personal anecdotes
>>75699104you WILL touch the Bobby
>>75699116the "fiancé" doesn't even touch the gelatinous blobFrank tho..
>>75699104No wonder your bench is regressing when you are mocking the father of linear body weight bench gains. You will eat 12 pizza snacks, Bobby post daily and meditate on the following; Bobby is the Sphere, but the Sphere is not Bobby.
>>75699010Planning? Yes.Do I want to move there? TBD
You can all laugh at blobby but facts are he does outbench yall
>>75699273my federation does not recognize his bench
>>75699246Did your life noticeably change after hitting your first $1 million? I’m sitting at $900k right now and getting close, but I’ve noticed my motivation slowing down a bit, almost like I’ve already hit the finish line. Does reaching that milestone really shift your mindset, or is it just another number? Interested to hear how others felt when they crossed it.
>>75699246This is why I want to come home, do my time, and go hard for the money in America. There's nothing better. I'm going to sleep in my car
>>75699273I would outbench me as well if I gained 40kg
Gonna take a 10 day rest from all sports.Then restart lifting with SS. Then move on to 5/3/1 once I can't SS over 3 reps. R8.
>>75699531Go straight to 5/3/1. It seems to be the new meme program around these parts, so you might as well join in on the phone.
>>75699246Get a line of ridiculously heavy kettlebells up to like 100kg and just swing them and jerk them and shit. Way more comfortable and fun than doing oly lifts.
>>756995355/3/1 is strength training on training wheels. You’re barely even touching 85% of your real max, and that’s only once a month, like it’s some kind of special occasion. The rest of the time, you’re cruising on low volume, low intensity, and then taking a deload week like you’ve earned it. This program’s practically designed for people who want to feel like they’re lifting without ever pushing their limits. It’s for guys who want to keep things easy and pretend they’re still ‘training hard.’Let’s face it—5/3/1 is the retirement plan of lifting programs.Post body if you think I’m wrong, but I’ll wait, because anyone who’s serious about real strength doesn’t bother with this half-measure routine.Full stop.
>>75699535I need to get to my actual maxes first. I haven't maxed out in a year.
>>75699542If you can handle 90% plus weekly without getting fried, then you're a beginner
>>75699544Use 85% of your all time best as your training max and just go for it.
5/3/1 FOREVER
>>75699552Depends on what you mean by that. Mike T often does @8 singles which are around 90-93% every week. Would you say he's a beginner?
>>75699542It literally has amraps every workout, starting with 75%RM first workout of first month. Amraps are literally the definition of pushing limits.
>anons start posting>bobby appears
>>75699552I was about to write a retort to your assertion, but it appears you have been Bobbied.
>>75699573>Arguing about a single set when there are numerous volume accumulation strategies that exist within the 5/3/1 framework to actually push yourself
If 5//3/1 is so great, why didn't it work for you, Blobbert?
>>75699590It has its problems (generally low frequency, usually low intensity, etc) but the morningstar template worked for me.
>>75699566>RPE 8Not a percentile. His proprioception is not so refined that he can make this determination.
>>75699607If it worked, why aren't you running it?
>>75699613Because I don't want to focus just on power cleans, ohp and squats.
>>75699621Power cleans? in 5/3/1?
>taking advice from thiscould not be me
>>75699628Yes. It's a template from Forever.
1st week of sheiko almost done
>>75699324>>75699402Well I'm a /fraud/ fortunate enough to be born into small generational wealth. However, my wife and I worked for our own needs. What was set aside for us we haven't had to touch. For example, college tuition funds that I didn't need thanks to scholarships is just being rerolled for my kids. Aggressive retirement funds will take care of us down the road. Mindset wise, I'm looking out for my grandkids. I'm not money hungry, but I am doing whatever's best to secure my lineage while prices skyrocket all around. I'm trying to look out for their future like those before me did on my behalf. My children don't get everything they want, but they will never fear empty plates or not having a roof over their heads.
>>75699611Okay, what about conjugate then? 1-3 RM on 2 movements a week. You gonna say the entirety of Westside are beginners?>Inb4 the westside beginner can bench 475 lbs pasta>>75699646Nice anon, loved the bench pyramid days
>>75699646>less intensity than 5/3/1Come home, wigger.
>>75699657>does a 3rm using a variation that lowers the absolute load considerably>takes a ton of drugs
>>756996075/3/1 is good because it's intensity cycling for dummies.Here:5/3/1 squat/bench/deadlift/any press including bench3x12 compound accessory for muscle group that failed on main lift (rdl, gm, dl, lowbar, highbar, front, lunges, ...)3x12 isolation accessory (leg curl, back extension, ...)done
>>75699662>Absolute load coping90%+ is 90%+. And what about natties that run conjugate?>>75699663The principles of it are decent for the most part. I think the templates with more than 1x lift frequency are best though.
I, for one, welcome the return of 2010 T-Nation posting.
>>75699672No, 90% is not 90%. A 90% deadlift is not the same as a 90% clean. Much less a power clean. Or a snatch. Absolute load matters.
>>75699676>Shifting goal postsNot saying that absolute load doesn't matter but frankly it's not relevant to the discussion. You said 90%+ weekly. Not 90%+ on comp style only. The movement rotation obviously helps with managing fatigue but it's still going very heavy every week.
>>75699552Oh, so you’re saying advanced lifters can’t handle heavy singles or high percentages on a regular basis? Hate to break it to you, but if you’re getting 'fried' from anything over 85%, maybe you’re the beginner. Managing intensity and volume is literally how advanced programming works.>>75699573Ah yes, the legendary 75% AMRAP—nothing screams ‘pushing limits’ like repping out your warm-up weights. Let’s be real, AMRAPs in 5/3/1 are just a way to convince people they’re working hard while staying miles away from actual intensity. ‘Pushing limits’ is handling heavy triples, doubles, or singles on a regular basis, not seeing how many reps you can squeeze out at 75% like you’re in a CrossFit box.
>>75699687>more pilpulI brought up intensity as a point of recovery. You are hanging on an irrelevant point.
>>75699542>Post body if you think I’m wrong, but I’ll wait, because anyone who’s serious about real strength doesn’t bother with this half-measure routine.
>>75699688feel free to post lifts for me
>>75699688
>>75699689>irrelevant pointI'm quoting you almost directly.>Jewish buzzwordsPottery
>>75699688Tbf the real intensity work is actually the joker sets, which you can do at any point. But that requires some knowledge of how your body feels. Also there are various challenges in the books if you want to try hard.
>>75699672I'm not maxing out on main lifts more than once a week. No point. By the point of starting 5/3/1, form should be dialed in. One could do 531 squat/5x10 dead I guess, that'll increase frequency to 2x week.
>>75699733I'm not suggesting having multiple amraps a week. But BBB is an okay option. I prefer 5x5 SSL and sometimes 5x10 FSL. I think the reason morningstar worked for me was because I had all three things mentioned during the week for all lifts except power cleans. And it's not about working on form but it is an objective fact that the more you practice a lift the better you will be in terms of execution and neural efficiency. Plus it allows you to spread volume throughout the week instead of destroying a given body part each session.
Let's compare two methods of training.5/3/1 uses a training max of 80-90% of true 1rm, depending on level of training advancement. Let's look at a 585 squatter, using a training max of 500 pounds.Adhering to a traditional 5/3/1 model, his first workout will be 325, 375, 425 for 5+. If he's feeling good, he can take another jump after that set and do it for the originally prescribed reps. Let's say 450x5. The plus set should end up around 10 reps. The 450x5 should be about a 3 RIR set, so "RPE 7." If he still feels up to it, he can do another joker set, which should be "RPE 8". In total, that's 3 sets of around 75-80% 1rm, performed to about RPE 7-8.Then, he has choices for backdown sets. Either FSL or SSL, for either 5x5 or one "widowmaker." Or 5x10 with 50%. Let's say he does 5x5 sets across for FSL.325x5375x5425x10450x5 Joker450x5 Joker325x5x5 FSLCompare this to the Texas Method. The same lifter is probably squatting 500x5, so their work sets would be doing 425x5x5, assuming 85% of ID. This is 25 reps at a weight that starts around RPE 5 and becomes closer to RPE 7, maybe 8 by the fifth set. 5/3/1 does 20 reps in this work range, with a higher average intensity due to the Joker sets. It is also autoregulated, so if the lifter is having a bad day, he doesn't have to grind out the Joker sets. He can cut it out after the plus set, or do threes for the joker sets instead.
>>75699133>Frank puts his Gomorrah in Blobby’s Sodom>dots go down and starts aggressively balding at the crownWizard powers are real
>>75699472>>75699296Cope blobby benches 4pl8 with 1 ball. If you cant bench more than him with 2 balls as an adult male stay humble.
>>75699775You don't have to have a set percentage for BBB work. There are also challenges templates where the BBB work goes as high as 70%. Jokers don't have to be only 5s either in your example. They can be 5, 3, or 1. And you can keep going up, you don't have to stop after the first weight increase. Yes I wrote this before seeing that you said you can do threes for Jokers too. As far as 5x5 FSL, that's more of a dynamic effort approach. SSL is more appropriate for a 5x5 if you want to accumulate volume.
>>75699799>Jokers don't have to be only 5s either"or do threes for the joker sets instead.">You don't have to have a set percentage for BBB work"Then, he has choices for backdown sets">Yes I wrote this before seeing that you said you can do threes for Jokers tooI accept your concession.
>>75699542This post unironically convinced me Wendler is a grifter. He didn't even do his program.
>advocates 5/3/1 forever>doesn't do it forever
>>75699835He has done it, he just didn't do it to get as strong as he did. The whole point of 5/3/1 at its conception is to get away from powerlifting training and to just work on being a well rounded athlete.

>>75699856>didn't read the book1. you can add as many joker sets as you can handle2. see above3. that's not a part of the program4. Ed Coan, Kirk K, and countless others did 1x a week.

>>75699883so do 5/3/1, but don't actually do 5/3/1?
>>75699894Do the program as outlined in the book, not as summated in TikTok panels, my brown zoomerito friend.

Honestly, I hate to be doing this, Bobby. It's fucked up, but I will be randomly posting pictures of scales from now on. The only way to not trigger panic attacks will be by avoiding this thread entirely. Now begone.
>>75700306bobbied him
I,for one, would rather take advice from Bobby than from wendler. Simple as.

>>75700266not really. i use different tightnesses for squat and deadlift, and used to bring two belts. its cut my bag down to one belt, which is nice. it was free, its 300 after tax.

>>75700458Gained some weight but it will be soon.
back in my early lifting days, I made the mistake of running 5/3/1 because everyone on the internet swore it was the holy grail of strength training. I thought it would be the key to leveling up, but honestly, it felt like I was wasting my time from day one.For the first three weeks, I was basically doing glorified warm-ups. Nothing over 75% felt remotely challenging, and by the time I got to the ONE 'heavy' day of the month—barely touching 85%—it felt like getting hit by a truck. My body wasn’t ready because it had been coasting on easy weights and low volume. But hey, it’s okay, because I get a whole deload week to recover from my one 'hard' set of the month, right? Absolute joke.Then there were the AMRAPs. At first, I thought they’d save the program, but nope. I ended up chasing stupidly high reps at 70-75%, and of course, my form broke down during a 13-rep deadlift set. Tweaked my back, missed two weeks of training, and when I came back, my squat was weaker than when I started the program. Meanwhile, my deadlift plateaued at 365 lbs for TWO MONTHS because adding 5 lbs a month is slower than watching paint dry.Honestly, the program isn’t even bad—it’s just not for people like me. Maybe if I were brown and weighed 145 lbs, I could actually get something out of it. But for anyone who’s serious about lifting heavy and building real strength, 5/3/1 is just a waste of time. Never again.
The writing this season has improved
Didn't read any of your retarded arguments, still doing 5/3/1, lmaoing at that one nigger thinking he trolling someone
>>75699542zoomers love 5/3/1 because it lets them punch their 1RMs into a spreadsheet, follow some colorful percentages, and pretend they’re ‘training hard’ without actually doing the work. it’s the ultimate participation trophy program
>>75700807The people who love participation trophies are millennials. Xers seethed at participation trophies and didn’t give them to their kids
Glad to know you are still here reading each 'retarded argument' and instant-replying. Stay here for my entertainment.

If you're impressionable enough to fall for 5/3/1, at least do the real version.
>>75701131This is nothing but junk volume. A well programmed 5/3/1, including joker sets is better.

Imagine being Pony. Imagine dreaming of setting tested junior world records. Imagine trying to become a fitness influencer. And then on the high of the first steps towards those goals you make a massive mistake. You become a fake natty, smugly taunt a schizo, and tell him to check the receipts. And he did. And now every step along the way relevant people will receive emails notifying them of your history, all neatly documented, archived, and translated into relevant languages with the power of ChatGPT. They'll find out about things such as your relationship with your openly roiding coach and your retarded programming. No longer will it be viable to just end a cycle before setting a tested total, since everyone will be skeptical and on high alert. And why? All because of some stupid youthful indiscretion and plain old poor luck. Talk about a bummer.

joker sets are made up, aren't they

>>75701569you should get a bidet
Assuming an 85% training max, which would be suitable for an advanced trainee, the first week, which calls for 85%x5 comes out to around 73%. Joker sets call for a 5% increase, and can be stacked. If you're feeling great, and opt to perform two joker sets, this would be 78% and 83%. an 83% set of five is about RPE 8.5 fresh--assuming the same rep range--closer to a 9.5 after the rest of the session.In Week Two, you can simply add 5% to the above numbers. This means that the joker sets would be 83% and 88%. An 88% triple is not a deload by any means. In fact, performing multiple joker sets with a Second Set Last 5x5 would arguably be too much for one session. As we can see, Wendler did not author a deload program.
>>75701605smiggy should start pulling beltless (9s pulling beltless in his new posts)

>>75701535>757014 + (6*5)>757044That post is years ago anon
The Joker had a long day today, he had to call some audibles. Instead of deadlifts, The Joker squatted today. The Joker's been dealing with some nagging groin pain from his last peaking cycle, which resulted in PRs. Everything was hurting him today, didn't sleep well, and was on his feet a lot. Here's how the lift went.325x5375x5425x8The back angle flattened a bit on the 8th rep, and everything was already hurting so The Joker stopped it there. Opted for the "not doing jack shit" variant. No jokers or backdowns today.
>>75702055sounds like the joker needs a good night's sleep

>sprain my ankle badly earlier this week>not lifted until todayIt felt weird not doing a squat and/or DL variation. But it did feel very nice to just go bench heavy, press heavy then do upper bodybuilding.I am thinking 2025 is the year of the BONER.

Why are you guys so fat
>>75704793Bobby, I know that you will never lose or post weight. My only intention is making you feel even worse about yourself by constantly reminding you of yet another failed cut. I like it when you're miserable.
>>75704807I have posted weight in the past. Even on stream. You're just shitting yourself and embarrassing yourself for no reason.
>>75704816Yeah, and you haven't posted weight ever since you began a new "cut" a month ago. Why? Because you're a nasty little obese fellow with zero accountability. You've been too scared of the scale, because it reminds you of how much of a failure you are.You will not be able to post progress or argue about stupid shit here without taking a hit to your confidence for the foreseeable future.
>>75704807odd how you've never posted lifts and or body yet beg for other men to. no kink shaming here bud
>>75704826>I let the actions of a morbidly obese Jew I don't even know irl dictate my own actionsThis isn't the own you think it is. And I can lose weight without posting it here. No reason that I absolutely have to.
I will always obsess over Bobby and pony and always will
>missed the jerk after cleaning 170kg
>>75704834>This isn't the own you think it is.Frankly it's kind of disturbing, isn't it? You're a creature so disgusting that your mere existence upsets multiple people this badly. All these stupid lolcows, yet you stand out among them. >And I can lose weight without posting it here. No reason that I absolutely have to.You post every single bit of progress and any happening in your life. If you lost weight you'd post about it. You haven't lost weight. You probably haven't even stepped on a scale.
>>75704847>Thinks I post every little thing that happens to meThat's where you're wrong. You only know what I want you to know. Nothing more.
>>75704847ahem. welcome to goblinx general
>>75704857>You only know what I want you to know. Nothing more.Yes, and you'd want us to know that you lost weight. Hence your multiple posts about cutting over the last month. Bobby, you're too stupid to play the mastermind persona. You're too dumb and too easy to read. Please withdraw from this game and just continue eating whatever you were eating.
>>75704874Except you've not accounted for one thing. You spamming me repeatedly for weigh in numbers. That makes me not want to post anything to do with them simply because you want them so badly.
can you guys keep your mentally ill buttergolems contained to this general? thanks.
>>75704885only if you post lifts
>>75704882Bobby... I just told you that you're too dumb for this game. I only started asking for weigh -ins a few days ago when you were a month into your cut.
>>75704889this is a fitness board, not a powerlifting board. most people on this board care about far more than your three lifts, and when we do we don't want to sacrifice health for numbers. you probably wouldn't be impressed with my pullups. not worth posting them here. this is a containment thread for the obeasts at the zoo, and i will not post any of my calisthenics here. you stay here, and i won't come here. show your face elsewhere and i will call you the sloppy animals you are.
>>75704894And it's only been not even 11 days into my cut, there's nothing worth posting right now because the amount of fat compared to water lost is frankly minimal. I wanted to lose weight prior to then but I did not commit until the beginning of this month, because once again, you only know what I tell you. Sounds like you're the one that's too stupid for this game.
