By the way, I want to focus on Framemaxxing as I'm starting just now.
Anything that could be optimized in that aspect, so changing excersises?

2 sets on every exercise...

 

[iraqi]

This is more of low volume high intensity.

I don't spend more than 1 hour in the gym

i used to do 3x10 on most machines
first set: 3x10 (1-3 RIR)
second set: 3x10 (1 RIR)
third set: 3x10 (failure, sometimes i cant even get all 10 in)

thoughts? ik its lowk mid looking back at it

The idea of doing 6 reps is skipping the first few reps which has minimal motor unit recruitment and jumping straight to the full activated stimulating reps.

This idea removes unnecessary CNS fatique

Since hypertrophy is fibre specific, having an upper A and upper B doesn't make sense. You're getting 1x frequency on those fibres instead of 2. Just repeat the same upper day instead of having A and B days.

you don't need alternating workouts

doing the same one would be better

and why the fuck would you do a pulldown unilaterally lmfao makes 0 sense

and why the fuck would you do a pulldown unilaterally lmfao makes 0 sense

iqlet

 

[combatingNorwooding]

and why the fuck would you do a pulldown unilaterally lmfao makes 0 sense

Why is that ? I’m curious

 

[redeemthecard]

Why is that ? I’m curious

a bilateral pulldown is absolutely stable enough, you don't ever need a unilateral one. on top of that, hes making a guide for newbies who have no idea how to execute unilateral sets

iqlet

sbl larper just replies with "muhhh iqlet!!!" instead of telling me why im wrong

ur absolutely clueless



so after i just read the entire split i can say its utter dogshit

• Lat Pulldown (Upper Back Focus)???????????????????????!?!?!?!!?!?!?

just kill yourself u fucking inbred moron holy fuck

 

[combatingNorwooding]

a bilateral pulldown is absolutely stable enough, you don't ever need a unilateral one. on top of that, hes making a guide for newbies who have no idea how to execute unilateral sets

You don’t do unilateral movements for stability tho

You do it for an increase in MUR

 

[redeemthecard]

You don’t do unilateral movements for stability tho

You do it for an increase in MUR

negligible

 

[combatingNorwooding]

negligible

Not at all lol. Every muscle group show different amounts of bilateral deficit

The lats have a large bilateral force deficit

 

[redeemthecard]

Not at all lol. Every muscle group show different amounts of bilateral deficit

The lats have a large bilateral force deficit

it's not a meaningful improvement at all considering the extra cns fatigue lmfao
