    Any squat with a heel variation will most likely favor quads compared to any other method without a heel elevation.

    Generally speaking:

    you’ll want some arch to keep chest up. As far as grip, You’ll want elbows stacked under hand at the bottom of the press to limit Tricep and favor chest.

    Quads on leg press. Feet as low on the platform without your heels coming up. Feet just wide enough to allow enough hip flexion, to not limit knee flexion, no wider. Going to narrow could limit knee flexion due to running out of flexion at the hips first. As said above, if got to wide adductors will come in.

    As the others are saying here, can’t wait to have this whole line available in the states. Have been importing trainedbyjp for over a year now, will be nice to not have the shipping cost ?. Always willing to pay for quality ?

    Both should be done, but if your going to do one, do straight leg

    Hey there. Assuming you execute this the way most people do, this is going to be much more hip dominant vs quad dominant.

    I’m assuming your going to hit maximal hip flexion before knee flexion.

    So this would be more beneficial for glutes/adductors vs quads.

    Sounds like you have been relying on the “bounce” out of the whole from the wraps and are just lacking strength in that range.

    You may just need to lessen the load and start fresh.

    Would you mind posting up the actual diet? I don’t believe you have updated that since the first page of the log where the calories were like in the 4K range.

    Genuinely curious how you manage to get this in. Very impressive!

    Nutrabio makes a good K2/D3 Supp
    Morphogen makes a good kidney supplement + tudca
    Jeff long makes a good all in one health supplement
    Revive is overpriced imo.

    That being said, I import JP supps to US. They simplistic are the best quality for the best value.

    As someone who is familiar with both courses, Jules nailed it. If I had to choose 1 for application I would go N1

    It’s technically the oil that expires. Not worth it in my opinion.

    Not to sound cheesy but when it is anything like adherence issues, I like to think about my “why”.

    What is keeping you on this path, why are you doing it. If that doesn’t allow you to stay on track, maybe it’s not as important as you think, or you need to find a deeper rooted why

    Really doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things in my opinion.

    Set things up in way that work best for your performance,digestion, and adherence.

    Agree with a lot of the above for health obviously. Pure meathead answer, enough to not gas out during back off sets, and not gas out in the bedroom ?.

    This is on going conversation.

    Technically you need more on a diet, less in a surplus.

    Technically you need less on gear vs not on gear.

    I don’t understand all the debates though, why would you not just stay on the high side just to be safe? Extra won’t hurt but not having enough certainly will.

    As others here, favor around the 1.5g per pound or 3g/kg approx

    Simply put, IMO benefits out weigh the cons by far.
