You don't even need to do exercises that are very different

2017-11-06 05:35:37 UTC  

They just need to work slightly different muscle groups

2017-11-06 05:36:41 UTC  

so let's see... the sperg in the video said to rig your periodization so that you start with ~75%1RM and about 30 reps, and end it with 90%1RM and roughly 5 reps of working set

2017-11-06 05:36:57 UTC  

so if you did that over 4 weeks... that'd be like...

2017-11-06 05:39:13 UTC  

That's too autisticly specific

2017-11-06 05:39:27 UTC  

```week 1: 3x10@75%
week 2: 3x8 @ 80%
week 3: 3x4 @ 85%
week 4: 2x2 @ 90%
week 5: deload```

2017-11-06 05:39:30 UTC  

Like I said, try different things and stick with what works best

2017-11-06 05:39:36 UTC  

what are your lifts at

2017-11-06 05:39:58 UTC  

I don't do regular lifts if that's what you're asking

2017-11-06 05:40:05 UTC  

I use a machine for most

2017-11-06 05:40:07 UTC  

whatever lifts you focus on

2017-11-06 05:40:18 UTC  

One handed bench press type motions

2017-11-06 05:40:24 UTC  

flys

2017-11-06 05:40:37 UTC  

maxed out my lat pull downs

2017-11-06 05:40:45 UTC  

Elevated weighted push ups

2017-11-06 05:40:57 UTC  

I get it, you're trying for weighted calisthenics

2017-11-06 05:40:58 UTC  

weighted pull ups, like I said before

2017-11-06 05:41:03 UTC  

Not really

2017-11-06 05:41:08 UTC  

I just do whatever feels best

2017-11-06 05:41:19 UTC  

well what are you at on those moves

2017-11-06 05:41:26 UTC  

weighted calisthenics are some of my motions

2017-11-06 05:41:47 UTC  

For the 113lbs weighted pull up i do 2 sets of 6 reps

2017-11-06 05:42:12 UTC  

For the machine stuff I've never actually measured the weight

2017-11-06 05:42:21 UTC  

I just stick to a set amount of reps

2017-11-06 05:42:22 UTC  

so

2017-11-06 05:42:36 UTC  

for my one handed bench, I usually stick to 2 sets of 10 reps

2017-11-06 05:42:41 UTC  

with how much

2017-11-06 05:42:43 UTC  

For flys I do the same

2017-11-06 05:42:51 UTC  

Like I said, I don't know how much weight

2017-11-06 05:42:52 UTC  

how much for the fly

2017-11-06 05:42:58 UTC  

it's not listed

2017-11-06 05:43:01 UTC  

are you at least maxing the machine?

2017-11-06 05:43:03 UTC  

I'd have to measure it

2017-11-06 05:43:11 UTC  

On the fly? no.

2017-11-06 05:43:17 UTC  

how much do you weigh

2017-11-06 05:43:21 UTC  

160

2017-11-06 05:43:29 UTC  

do you have a vocal problem?

2017-11-06 05:43:34 UTC  

what?

2017-11-06 05:43:42 UTC  

like a kind of speech impediment

2017-11-06 05:43:46 UTC  

no

2017-11-06 05:43:55 UTC  

Was told I'm a fairly good public speaker, actually
