Thoughts on microloading for progressive overload?
>>
>>76818718
is that where you add 2.5 pounds? i don't do it because my strength fluctuates daily anyway. put a generally heavy weight on, do some reps, it works.

this better be a man

It works pretty well. But it's injury prone if you don't give your joints and connective tissue time to acclimate to the new stresses. I usually do 5s because it's a two to three weeks before I can do it again. But I've gotten over plateaus before with microplates where reps were really static.

You should be eating enough and training in rep ranges where you can overload with 2.5# pl8s

As long as your s/b/d row and press are going up and you hit some volume on arms and pullups, you should be able to make progress indefinitely
Retards training the big lifts 8-12 were cooked before they even turned the oven on

>because my strength fluctuates
Sometimes i dont get as good of a squeeze when i go up in weight. If i go up in weight and dont get doms i will usually go back down and focus on concentruc and eccentric movements while increasing reps.

If you have an Oly bar you can buy a stack of humongous washers and use them for microloading for pennies on the dollar to actual plates. Just check that the inner diameter will fit over your bar. I've got some that are about 0.6lbs each, paid I think $15 for a stack of 10?

If I I'm going heavy and I suspect I won't top my previous attempt, I'll slap a couple of the washers on there. Always try to be doing more than last time, even if it's just one rep or one pound.

It's interesting how women are sexually obsessed with androgynes.

>masculine women
>feminine men

I urge /fit/ to contemplate this on the tree of woe.
>>
>>76819946
Pretty much only in media though
In real life, they want nothing to do with actual andro twinks and instead fuck masculine men

i got news for you, no male draws cuntboys
that said i just looked at their prfile and they seem to be ftm

Yeah, it's helped me a shit load progressing OHP.
I can't add 2.5kg each session, but I can just add the 0.25kg plates each session instead, and slowly ramp up.
Currently doing 76.5kg x 10 with fat gripz.
I have no rack so I also clean it first.
Feels good.

>>76819946
The two retards who replied to you couldn't contemplate anything on the tree of woe. Yes, it is in fact interesting. I wish I knew why.
