Yup. Sounds like the dude already knows everything. I can’t imagine I can offer any help.

i didnt say that i dont know everythign and nobody ever will but people should strive to…but im just wondering what am i doing wrong and why am i not getting stronger programming and perdization wise?
Whelp, I gave you my perspective. Beyond that: I wish you luck.
you gave me zero programming and block periodization advice …dont most nattys need that to hit powerlifting goals and potential … especially if they are stalling all the time and not even close to advancded level strength and they never ever never miss a trainning session like me?
Yup. I did not feel that was what you needed.
why not ? i thought evverybody needs that to hit strength standards at least the average guy
DELOAD and stop thinking you can add weight 3 times per week. That’s insanity. Use double progression – increase repetitions before increasing weight.
This is why we keep saying it sounds like you already know it all 
If you ever want to listen to some different advice, we will be here.
Your squat is far too weak compared to your deadlift. From my experience, it is because your squat form is far from efficient. You are stronger than your squat weight indicates. But, what do I know?
i heard about that and i have been deloading and reloading forever and keep failing… and yes i have faced that fact… i can no longer add weight to the bar 3 times a week not any more.. the noob gains are over… i heard about double progression but from a practical standpoint you can burn yourself out too by doing too much volume and reps and sets thats why i need a more methodical approach… what do you think i should do ? something like this squat day 1 385 for 3x1 squat day 2 2x1 385 squat day 3 3851x1 then week 2 day 1 squat 390+ for 1x1? i cant find what works and what point is best anything below 365 i can add weight to the bar every session because it is easy weights anything above like 365-395 i can add weight every session but not enough to squat 400+ and stall… and yes i have heard of mad cow 5x5 and double progression
Against my better judgment, I’m going to offer one more reply.
Singles display strength while moderate weight/reps build strength. That in mind, pick up a copy of Jim Wendler 531 Forever. The magic does not occur during the fives or the threes or the singles but in the supplemental work so push that hard. That book in itself is all you’ll probably need and quit fixating on single rep work as it’ll only crush your training enthusiasm.

i tried madcow 5x5 and i got weaker by doing the heavy day then the light(er) day then the pr day in a week it didnt work it just made me weaker i only wanna do what is best for me and what works for me
Adnvacded perdiziation when you are advanced lifter squatting over 400
It is safer to lift the same weight
Several sessions in a row then
It is to
1add weight every session (progression speed slows down on heavy numbers)
2. Drop the weight like in madcow 5x5 or texas method that depeaks my CNS
3. Go beyond +1 rep or set in the double progression and over do it !
4. Then on your blocks
You can add weight once or twice a week for new PRs then reset that program forever!!!
Are you asking us? Or telling us?
My reading of your first post was that you were asking questions.

Advanced lifter and you won’t even be squatting twice your body weight for a max single? Are you kidding me? That is barely intermediate lifter weight.

Either a know it all or a troll. Has a rebuttal for all suggestions and continues to discuss madcow.
Out.

I always find value in these topics because they’re a great demonstration of how we can get in our own ways on the route the progress.

You need to progressive overload the amount of food you eat. Weight moves weight.
If you want some scientific language: at 6’4’’ and 220lbs, your leverage are shit.
I am 8 inches shorter than you and if I wanted to be competitive in powerlifting, I’d shoot for the 220lbs division.
From the article in the previous link.
His calculation was this: the strongest people in the world weigh 3.25-4.57 lbs (roughly 1.5-2 kg) for every inch of height.
At 6’4’', you should be between 247 lbs and 347 pounds.

Lots of really smart dudes in this thread, and one dude who thinks he is. Hopefully the one who thinks he is, will get smart and actually listen to the dudes who have done what he is trying to do.
