    I don’t think it’s a question of chasing the scales mate, you just don’t need to add 10lbs a week.

    As Ryan said, if you’re stalled, you need to up kcals. Find the sweetspot of moving it up but not drastically

    Today I trained

    Load – Chest

    Machine press
    Inc Smith

    Machine press felt as good as I can remember and let me work. Incline Smith was better than expected so I’m happy

    Clusters – Back

    Stirrup Pulldown
    Narrow neutral Pulldown

    Rest tomorrow and then arms and delts on Tuesday

    I’m starting my 4th week now and starting to feel a bit heavier so will check and monitor body weight from here

    In line with the guys

    Of course it can be done, but I’d choose a single leg leg press over this

    Split stance can be a good alternative too

    Agree with the gang, not much wrong with that at all mate, great stuff.

    To echo the guys, touch deeper (watch knee angle at that point as well as the obvious loss of back integrity) and the closer the bar stays to you the more advantageous

    Agree with the gang. It’s all about optimising recovery to meet the stimulus

    The boring part of me would suggest not doing anything that would mess your frequency up – but most people would like to enjoy themselves !
