your program is solid for a enhanced lifter but for a natural this program is dogshit because there is not enough recovery day's for a natural lifter.

also is your Avi your skull and im assuming your east asian ?

Idk but I'm just doing it since it's so basic and easy to stick to, but my mobility is terrible after years rotting in bed so I can't perform the barbell row correctly

unlucky for you when i first got into the gym after hard LDAR and shit diet i could deadlift 130kg conventional no belt 1 rep max.

its all genetics i have superior athletic and performance genetics

yes the program is simple asf and isnt spending most of your week at the gym since its 3 days a week with ideal time to recover to train harder then last time.

Recovery is per-muscle. The program has rest day(s) between when the same muscle groups are trained. PPL has just 1 recovery day per week, and it’s fine because some muscles recover on days other muscles get trained. That program has a 4-day version (longer rests).

The thread isn’t really about a specific program but is more about the 6-8-10-12 structure of the 4-exercise workout: (1st) Main Lift (6 reps), (2nd) Accessory (8 reps), (3rd) Antagonist (10 reps), (4th) Bro Exercise (12 reps). This structure can be applied to schedules consisting of any number of training days per week.

Yes but since your doing compound's already you are indirectly training other muscle groups which can hinder the performance. 5x5 imo is the best to achieve a 200kg deadlift conventional no belt with strict ass form

fair enough my calorie consumption was between 2k-3k so makes sense why i deadliftedf 130kg first time like its nothing

 

[thecel]

yeah as long as you have the elite-level genetics to get there with just 5x5 JFL

Don’t 5x5 programs do multiple compounds a day that hinder each others’ performance?

5 compound movements all togother and 3 compounds each workout and theres two workout splits between A and B. A is focus on bench and B is focused on OHP they are switched in between each other

The 6-8-10-12 thing is for pre-peak strength and size development. Powerlifters and strength trainees would run that for several weeks to focus on their main strength lifts and get hypertrophy to help these lifts. The reps are high because it’s not a peaking program.

switch barbell rows out for tbar and/or cable rows tbh. Back is hard for beginners most have poor form pulling with arms and not back. I remember doing barbell rows and not feeling it in my back cus poor form

My main issue is getting into position. Having problems keeping my back and head straight, I think it has to do with weak core and tight muscles

Don’t get into position; that’s a female position that your oneitis is probably very familiar with getting into inside Chad’s bedroom.

Only difference is she does it chest-supported.

 

[Clown Show]

Utter trash program both for strength and size.

Do some powerlifting program for strength.
