That’s genius!
I always question how long certain indviduals who beat the drum the loudest for SS have actually. Been lifting and understand basic concepts.
See, where we were wrong in our approach before was doing 3x5 or 5x5. It wasn’t intense enough if we were able to do two more sets. We will now do 1x5 on each lift 3X a week.
I need to study cults more to figure out how to be more convincing and tribalistic, then write a 100 page book on the matter. I could probably write 50 pages on why it need to be 1x5 and not 5x5, but filling the other 50 pages is going to be tough.
Having an endorsement from a high level guy who doesn’t do the program in the least bit would help. I am thinking if John Hack would endorse it, I would sell my books and online programming.

Seems about right
Just remember to snag the beginners early since the majority tend to only lift for 3 years max based on market research.
You have to choose good problems to provide solutions to.
“Are you weak, stupid, and intollerably repugnant? Of course you are. But for only $10.99, I can help you be that with a label and false sense of purpose!”.
There are some great subjects that are guaranteed successful too, like cleansing peoples dirty skanky soul, and helping them avoid an empty meaningless life of not getting laid. Sometimes simultaneously!
Don’t forget “and will show how its not your fault and probably someone elses”
Eh, that’s good for the short haul,but you don’t want people feeling too good about themselves too quickly. Thats just shooting oneself in the foot.
I’m thinking of starting a thing called “Tactical Spirituality” or maybe “Guerilla Salvation”.
That way people can feel strong and enjoy purpose while knowing deep down that they are still a piece of shit, and have a lot to learn. From me. For an affordable but slightly painful regular installment.
Congratulations! You’ve just rediscovered Pavel Tsatsouline’s Power to the People protocol!*
*Not exactly, but very close.
Applying the techniques of a pickup artist between heavy deadlift sets? The self imposed limit of a 3-5 minute break is an excellent way to ensure your delivery of sleazy lines is curt and to the point.
In addition, male sweat and pheromones. I’ll take a 10% royalty fee.
@cyclonengineer if I’m going to the gym today, it’ll have to be between 4-4:30 pm, will I get a barbell (don’t need a rack)
Maybe? Hard to say for sure - have to stalk one for a minute maybe.
Start going into reeeeaaaaallllllyyyyyyyyyy great detail about supplements. ![]()
Will do a write up later!
The part where his hand is shaking as he removes his glasses gets me every time lol.
Juxtaposition ftw. Big word. Me smart!
Not really a fan of the dude, but his pull up method works wonders. I use it every year one month before my annual PT test.
I’d fucking install a lunk alarm in the gym myself if some fucker does all the pre-lifting growling and shit he did 10-15 times in row.
We should just call it the inconsiderate a-hole alarm
True lol.
I don’t mind people making lots of noise, especially in a group where they’re obviously straining hard as fuck. It adds to the atmosphere. It’s why I don’t like training at home.
But this guy just sounds so bloody irritating.
If I remember correctly for awhile he disowned free weight as the devil in favor of BW exercises. If memory served correctly he wrote a book shortly after about them.
I know Steve Justa did some sort of calisthenics rebirth thing. Similar stories I feel.
