There's something erotic about this. I'll be having 2 ham and egg sandwiches for breakfast with coffee.
Oatmeal for lunch and I think fish for dinner.

Working out at lunch.
Warm-ups are gay.

OHP 3x5
Flies 3x10
Pullups 3x8
Pendlay Rows 3x8
Face Pulls 3x12/Tricep pressdowns 3x10 Superset

Right whered you get it from? Your total shoulder work per week for example is 3 sets or 15 reps in total is that enough? not asking if its ideal just enough for your goals

Any advice is appreciated. I'm fucking clueless to weightlifting. Anastasios and stronglifts.com have been my sources.

I think you have to combine two approaches which is to train and find what works for you and also use what the latest scientfic literature says about lifting. Taking advice from a mediocre lifter on bb.com from a 9 ear old thread might not be the best idea imho

So lets take sets and reps for example, work through a few training blocks that use different levels of intensity, volume and frequency say a hypertrophy block followed by a strength one so higher volume followed by higher intensity and just play around with things and see how you respond while working through the literature

I follow Jeff NIppard and Mike Israetel from RP both hold doctorates and are seasoned lifters, they are boring as fuck to listen/watch so you know theyre onto something

So sets and reps lets look at that

Jeff NIppard

Enjoy

TLDR you want to do around 15-20 sets per body part per training week which to me means hitting them twice a week at least or its too brutal and sessions too long, thats my take away

Hey wog feel free to chime in. Diet butcher how many sets in total are yoou doing per week?

r/weightroom is the best sub on reddit, you cant post without posting credentials like photos or vids, I wouldnt be allowed to post there Anastosios would. You cant even ask what they think is a dumb question or theyll ban you so its just stfu and read with only quality input except the daily threads

Heres a thread on volume and shit

20 sep
banded side kick, yellow bandx20,20,25 this is rehab. feels a miniscule bit better every week
bench press 150x6 technique at 150 getting better but not good enough, whenever I break the 150 barrier stability becomes an issue. Should have been able to do 7 since I did 8 with 147.5
cambered bench press 100x10,10,10
seated db external rotation raise 11kgx8,8,8

diet is
1: corn tortilla, chicken breast, sriracha mayo, cheese slice, 2 homemade oatmeal brownies
2: 200g chicken breast, 100g rice or noodles, some herb and veggies
3: as #2 or occasionally 200g salmon
4: 250g burger patty, burger bun, 1 slice burger cheese, 1 slice pepperjack or emmentaler, onion, lettuce, burger sauce, ketchup, mustard, 350g air fried sweet potato fries or regular potato fries

supps are
with meal 1, 200mg magnesium, 20mg iron, 30mg zinc, 5000 iu vitamin D, 6 high strength omega 3 caps
with meal 2, 200mg magnesium, 1g niacin
with meal 3, 200mg magnesium, 1g niacin
with meal 4, 200mg magnesium, 20mg iron, 30mg zinc, 5000iu vitamin D.
Yes I need that much magnesium or else I wake up screaming in the middle of the night from quad and inner thigh cramps even chest and hamstrings sometimes. Have mediterranean genes so iron and mineral absorption sucks, plus I am very active and need 4k calories to just break even bodyweight wise.
I will stick to the diet and not munch on stuff inbetween or else over time I just gain more additional fat and ofc my insulin sensitivity gets worse.

I weigh about 91-92kg in the morning right now. I will compete in the 82.5kg weight class in the future and would rather walk around below 90kg and then water load and carb deplete for weigh ins without having to do a cutting diet for weeks. With water loading I lose about 3kg very easily and carb deplete another 3kg easily. I will gain a few kg muscle the next decade so I need more margins and learning to stay leaner year round without effort.

I like Israetel. He presents everything with a complete package and all parameters are in line with each other. When he says 15-20 sets, he means that level of volume with all other parameters included. If it gives you good results, stick with it and only slightly change a single parameter each training cycle to see how it works out.
