I just want to maintain my strength and maybe lose a little bit for even lower bodyfat. I will go as low as possible to see if it's worth it.
Those are one rep maximums.
I don't know any one rep maxes.
But I do know many reps.
haha
I'll fight you.
I do time over tension.
I haven't lifted in a while, but here's what I got...
That's good! I have been doing lower reps and time under tension.
I lift heavy and do reverse pyramid except for bullshit exercises like dips, curls, pullups, pulldowns, pullovers, etc. I do maximum reps with maximum weight for 3 sets.
How long have you been at it?
I don't go until I am exhausted, just enough to feel torn up then go home and eat a steak 😉
I've only been lifting for 4-5 years.
Do you pull conventional?
That's some good results then, nice
seated row: 100x10, 200 x10, 260x10 (stopped, will increase weight)
bench: 100x10, 160x13 (failed at 13s eccentric, will increase)
lat pulldown: 260x15 (failed at 6s eccentric, will increase)
Shoulder press: 100x9 (failed at 10s, will increase)
Leg press: machined max x20+ (lost count, switching back to bodyweight)
ok now I wanna see @Xychotic food
I was trying to identify where I was, since the goal is to hit 80% max capacity and only manage 6 reps before failure.
@YuriBezmenov What do you mean conventional?
@Xychotic I suggest you replace leg press with squatting. Leg press is terrible for you.
When you do deadlifts
outside
Is that conventional?
Yea
Ok
Is that bad?
Thats good
It's also not effective since the leg press isn't enough resistance.
Ok
I can probably do 500lbs but I don't see the point in going higher than that.
400lbs squat is already too heavy for me lol
I lift much lighter.
Growing in strength is super encouraging.
I don't do a lot of high impact athletics anymore. I just want to look amazing naked and feel strong.
The routine I do basically translates to strength gains every week.
Good!
You want to be training within 65% to 85% of your 1rm anyways
I still need to lose weight.
Low bodyfat (walk an hour a day and eat right) + lifting 2-3 days a week is all I do lol
