Missing a rep on an intensity day press is not really an actual piece of data. You can repeat 237 if you want, but if you can get 237x5 next week you...

When I said no room for error on diet, I meant you have to eat a LOT. It does have to be cleaner than it would if you were sleeping. But do not...

In my experience, one set of squats a week is usually not quite enough volume. The intensity day stress is a "medium" level stress. But it's not a...

The lack of sleep is going to show up as a reason you get stuck. So when you fail a lift, that's the reason. You will be able to run it to a point....

I mean, you never tried to build up work capacity after you could squat 190lg. Three days isn't enough to ruin the organism you built and if it did,...

These do look significantly better. It wasn't there that day: it happens on the press. Your timing it a bit better but still not quite "throwing"...

What medications are you taking that could cause low blood glucose?

Tell your family to fuck off. I'm (mostly) kidding. Try to find any little bits and pieces of sleep you can: naps count. Make sure to sleep in on...

This doesn't have enough pressing volume: pressing once and benching once is probably not going to be enough. Most people find they need to add press...

It's probably not going to take you a month. It's a transient effect of the sickness that'll go away as you eat and recover. If you ran a mile after...

They do other things for pulling volume. Eddie Hall talks about doing speed deadlifts on "off weeks" in the run up to the 500 kg pull.

This.occasionally happens to me. It goes and comes mysteriously. If there's any correlation it usually pops up when I need to examine heavy pulling...

As part of the "squeeze your chest up/set your back", you are dropping your hips. It looks like you're combining steps 3 and 4. Do these separately....

The capacity that the human body has to adapt to stressors in its environment is indeed great, but it is not unlimited, and it is certainly not free....

The thing about the 45 degree leg press is that it sacrifices a much larger footprint for higher absolute loading potential. However, even for the 45...

Just add weight to both each time. Reset every now and then when it creeps too far outside that range. A good rule of thumb is to just repeat the...

You want to keep volume the same as much as possible: otherwise you run the risk of digging yourself a "hole" if you fail repeatedly. If you can only...

You are letting your back come out of extension, and letting the bar lose contact with your legs late in the rep. Open your knees up a little and...

Any amount of knee flexion is wasted energy, so yes, you need to focus more on keeping your knees locked. You don't have the timing quite right....

This is moderately interesting because it gets into the nitty gritty of what actually constitutes stressors an adaptations. Allergens are stressors,...

Some people do fine with twice a week. But if you move from three days a week to one on, two off, you're pulling stress. If you get stuck, that's...

It's based on your individual progress, but you're almost 100 kg and are a normal man. 45 is oldER but not old. It's notable that your lifts are...

You're still crotch thrusting on the later reps. I'm not sure what that's about. Try giving a beat between bracing and descending. These are a bit...

I'll give some advice for free: carbohydrate intake is directly related to sleep quality. Eating correctly IS associated with better sleep,...

If it didn't result in strength gains, it wouldn't be "effective", now would it? You're thinking of intensity and volume a bit backwards here....

If you didn't change the rep scheme for squats before you moved to working out every three days, you messed up. Changing rep schemes maintains...

Your back is immediately coming out of extension, simultaneously with your knees extending without moving the bar. The bar looks like it's a little...

How bad is it really? Is one side just moving a little slower? Or are you actually unable to keep the bar stable and miss reps?
