post workout meal from costco. dont judge lol
 
Squatted again; hit 475 wrapped.

These Romaleos are so :pimp: I had to cop 2 more pairs.:lol::smh:

Lower back is on recharge until next week when I go heavy again. Goal is to go up another 25 before November.:sick:


Starting to think you might have some mental issues. What do you plan on bringing on 3 Romaeleos to the gym along with your 5 belts and 3 duffel bags?
 
DL 315 3x3

Whole lot of rows, chin ups and pull down and some face pulls.

Jumped rope for close to 30min. **** is so damn fun

Romaleo 2s run big or true to size? I heard to size down 0.5, I was thinking of grabbing a pair and heard the mixed reviews on the 3s
 
Finally back to pushing 315 on the squat again. Low bar doesn’t work too well for me. I went a little higher. Only got it 3 times. Hopefully in a month I’m able to hit it 10x again.

I went to 325 and it felt good. A little struggle but not bad.

I wanna get back to 365 but I understand it can take a while back.
 
My squats were trash Tuesday.

Failed 385 which I can hit, it’s just hard.

Last week I did 5 singles at 365.

Just had no power. Was fighting to get out of the hole and just said eff it and bailed.

I think these 60+ hour work weeks are catching up. It will be nice when the weather turns and it slows down. Money is good but I’m ready to chill.
 
New to lifting, what is your general regimen when working to gain strength? I always find that when trying to start up, I never know any tried and true routine. Any help?

True to size for me. I copped the same size I wear for regular Nikes.

I am of the "build a base" school of thought.

1. Get on dat dere SL 5x5. www.stronglifts.com. Read everything on there, twice. Follow the program as written for at least 6-8 months.
2. Lift, eat, sleep, repeat.

SL is not perfect nor is it a 'complete' program, but it will allow you to add size and strength to all of your major muscle groups. Don't attempt to bite off more than you can chew right now. Don't worry about sets, reps, RPE, 1RMs, periodization, drop/super sets, arm days, or anything of the sort.

The vast majority of noobs I see do this and end up doing 1 of 3 things: 1) getting injured/burning out and quitting the gym; 2) making minimal progress, getting discouraged, and quitting the gym; 3) making no gains but sticking with it and staying on dat dere DYEL status. Keep that ish simple.

IMO, the thing most beginners need to do is spend time under the bar, often, and learn how to do the basic movement patterns (hip hinge, squat, row, vertical press, horizontal press) until their form is dialed in. Once they this, then they can begin to learn other lifts and focus on hitting the more minor muscle groups.


Now, once you have achieved the bare minimum bro-standards of strength (1 plate OHP, 2 plate bench, 3 plate squat, 4 plate pull), we will re-evaluate your progress and goals.

Are you gaining strength for a specific sport or function or are you just talking about training for general strength?
