I see. Well considering you’ve recovered and everything, I still would suggest that route. It’s easy to plateau due to not wanting to go up in weight. Again, doesn’t have to be drastic weight gain.
Was studying Dermatology for a while. Have since recently switch majors to Psychology.
And thank you!
Again, I’m not trying to irritate you, but i noticed we’re like the exact same height and everything.
My roommate and good friend are both psych majors!
you’re not
I genuinely am interested in having a career in it. Since I just don’t find much else deeply interesting.
And okay, good.
Week 2: Day 4
45min eliptical
- have a blood test tomorrow so no weights today. felt good so still pushed it a bit
That works, seems like a.reasonable compromise.
On top of training fasted, this is crazy. I see why you aren’t making progress. I don’t even know what to tell you anymore. 99% of everything you are doing is totally counterproductive. You need to get your priorities straight and do what is necessary to accomplish your goals, otherwise the whole thing is a waste of time and energy.
Week 2: Day 5
Back Squat: 1x10-40kg, 1x5-50kg, 5x5-60kg w/1min rests, 1x5-50kg w.3sec pauses
Bench: 1x5-30, 1x5-35kg, 3x4-40, 3x4-45
5x(6 RDL-60kg+15HSPU)
- finally a break from all the volume!!! Felt good and really fast- LOVED the squats, RDLs worked glutes and hamstrings- easier than expected
My squat’s definitely gotten stronger!!! I did an easy 3x5 at 65kg beltless in this morning’s workout and I squatted yesterday! (I might not get to workout next Friday so I’m getting started with week 3 early)
Fingers crossed this gain is real and not just part of the usual cyclical uptick
Random bad workouts are not something to be concerned about, random good workouts though, they are always a good sign.
Week 3: Day 1
Back Squat: 1x10-40, 1x8- 50, 1x6-60, 3x5-65, 4x6-55, 1x5- 50kg w/3sec pause
Bench Press: 1x10-30, 1x8-35, 3x5-40, 3x5-45
Bicep Curl: 2x(3x5/arm w/o rest)-15lb
- felt amazing- a lot easier than expected, squats felt smooth and worked legs, bench felt quick and strong
OMG I LOVE GREG’s CHANNEL!!!
You could have delts like his and hulk smash the T-ransformation.
@Pinkylifting
It’s taking almost an hour to finish deadlifts- is that normal?
Sounds quick to me ha. How many sets? Including warmups a higher volume deadlift session can be 45 minutes for me, longer if I’m not particularly focused. 6 top sets with 5 minutes per set (doing the set, rest and prep for next rep) is an easy half an hour.
3 warmups and 11 working
Half an hour is definitely not slow
It took me twice that long ![]()
