Thoughts on microloading for progressive overload?
>>76818718is 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.
>>76818718this better be a man
>>76818718It 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.
>>76818718You should be eating enough and training in rep ranges where you can overload with 2.5# pl8sAs 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
>>76818730>because my strength fluctuatesSometimes 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.
>>76818731I have some news for you...
>>76819039took a look at his work and most are cuntboys, terrible
>>76818893Call us back when you've been at it a little longer, please.>>76818718If 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.
>>76818718damn i finally get the uma obsession now
It's interesting how women are sexually obsessed with androgynes.>masculine women>feminine menI urge /fit/ to contemplate this on the tree of woe.
>>76819946Pretty much only in media thoughIn real life, they want nothing to do with actual andro twinks and instead fuck masculine men
>>76819946>thinks faggy cartoons represent real lifeAnd you guys wonder why ya'll are khvI like anime as much as the next fag, but i'm aware it's just a cartoon
>>76819044>cuntboys>hisi got news for you, no male draws cuntboysthat 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.
>>76819946The 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.
