    Hi JP, do you have the same number of workout days as Sas do? Sas is 2on, 1off, 1on, 1off. As you move towards different direction, do you plan to increase number of workout days per week to increase deficit or are you going to play with food, NEAT and cardio?

    Hi Sas, for how long you train 4 weeks per week? Did you train more days per week in the past?

    Hi JP, I noticed you introduced some intensifier techniques in your leg workout such as rest pause and muscle rounds. What is the reason for that? Are you going to apply that to push and pull workouts?

    Hi Sas, it’s great to be with us! I asked earlier but you missed it. Can you describe your rebound so far? What principles you have to increase food and which macros you increase from post show up to 4th week? Also, how do you take olive oil do you spread it on veggies?

    At the time I used to play football. So up to 20 days I was able to walk properly and started isometric exercises. Up to two months I fully bent the knee and 3-4 months started running. I believe on 3rd to 4th month you will be able to do high rep sets on to strengthen your quad. What graft are you going to take? Is it from hamstring?

    Hi Sas it’s great to be with us! I watched your recent update video and I have one question. You mentioned in the video that food will stay the same as ling as lifts progress. Can you explain with more detail how you bounced back from prep food wise from week 1 up to now?

    Also, how do you take olive oil on non training days? Do you spread it on veggies?

    Again, welcome to the site!!

    Hi mate, I used to play football some years ago and I had torn acl in both knees due to injuries. Each 1 year apart. I recommend to do the surgery as inflammation occurs due to instability of the knee causing inflammation in the area, but it is my opinion. If you need anything ask, as I did surgery on both knees

    I agree with William, I guess most of us trying to progress the weight, we might drop mind muscle connection below appropriate. Then it is wise to reduce weight to around back off set’s weight for heavy work and rebuild strength. However, every person is different there are muscles and exercises that need to rebuild less often or more often depending on each individual.

    In which exercises you lose mind muscle connection? It cant be all of them. Some exercises you should still have good mind muscle connection even if you increase weight

    Hi JP, apart from personal experience, what other sources both physical and online do you suggest to study physiology, nutrition, supplementation and biomechanics? sorry for writing to this thread btw.

    I am not sure if 7 days average is optimal as you have to eat decent amount of protein every 4 hours imo to prevent catabolism as much as possible

    Thanks Marcelo,

    I really like lentils, but I always use it as my carbs source since I mix it with animal protein. I was just curious to see if its protein can be added to my daily intake as it is higher compared to other plant foods.

    Thanks JP. To keep volume the same I have to drop one of my sets from other pull movements, right? Is it better to drop set from width or thickness movement?
