The hard days were the 9 rep sets for me

And just knowing that every day at the gym that squat bar is waiting for you

Was terrifying and exhilirating

Oh wait I was looking at the full smolov

so the Jr is only 3 weeks? Is that enough to see improvement?

I guess I can just pick up where the Jr left off and continue the full

That's what I ended up doing

We had to cut the full one short because of a deployment but the squat and overall body gains were unreal

Smolov is real shit.

awesome, did you gain any lean mass?

I assume you were eating a lot, looks like a lot of volume to not be eating a ton for recovery

I gained half an inch on my biceps and lost inches around my waist

were you doing the bench cycle?

No

damn half an inch on the arms on a squat program? lol

Yeah. It was strange

question; were you low bar or high bar squatting?

And to this day my ass got so big girls comment on it regularly

Low bar

lol my ex was obsessed with how round my ass got

tbh I think mine got too big

🍑

I got up to 265 at my last powerlifting meet so I hear you

My oly coach wants me to switch to high bar which sucks since I can't lift nearly as much weight that way

I'd listen just because oly lifting is so toight

TOIGHT

My sister competes in oly lifting

yeah and oly lifers have mad aesthetic quads

low bar is more hamstrings

Yeah. My quads are nothing to laugh at but my hamstrings and glutes are where my gains show
