I wouldn’t say that was a bad session, you’re just not ready to make that jump up in load. Progression doesn’t always mean you have to add weight every session and generally push movements progress slower anyway. As a side note too, if you performed the incline smith and narrow press after attempting the DBs, then the fatigue accumulated from this could have impacted those lifts. You didn’t regress, so don’t write it off, just be patient and next time aim for an extra rep before trying to add load again.

Thanks! yeah i did those after the DB incline, pull work increased in load nicely after tho.

my top set rep range is 5-9, i think i wouldve gotten that 5 reps on the 35kgs if the first rep didnt take so much out of me

so u think i should go backto 32kgs and push for 10-11 reps? out of that 10 weeks ive used 7 weeks to progress 32kg db’s to 9 reps, feels like it should betime to add weight soon :S

—
If you feel ready to try them again next time, get a spot to get the dBs into position first so that it doesn’t take anything away from you before you start

thx, ill se how my other sessions go by the week and see what i do then..

Hi mate

You need to look at priorities and tge way the rest of the sessions are set up

It could interchange with a barbell row for example on upper day, and with such low ham volume on leg day, would likely be recoverable.

That said, if you’ve got extreme quads, it might be that you afford the leg sessions to be skewed to the posterior

thanks for answering
Quads and hams are pretty even, hamstrings might actually be stronger.
Lower back loading is taken into account by only using chest supported rows

thanks guys, will try implementing these :)!

i put subtitles on and it says “any rep range as ljng as u do take it TO failure” 🙂

[sasa]

wich video and what time?

[sasa]

This is interesting thread…Ive always gone for 2g/per Kg bodyweight or little more, 250g-300g protein as 70-75kg dude sounds sick 😀 i dont even know how to get that much without consuming alot of whey

[sasa]

I thought that all four sessions would have different movements? So heavy chest A, heavy chest B, light chest C, light chest D

yes thats how i understood it also and i think thats how JP meant it to be also

[sasa]

i have mine on lower 1 (i got 3 rotations) i do it First EX instead of ham curl

[sasa]

im recovering just fine on 2 on 1 off UL split naturally, training every set to failure, not loading my lower back more than twice in a 3 rotations.
Ur upper lower loads ur lower back every day, try reducing that to 2 in a week

[sasa]

If im correct you are lowerback loading every workout, think about that while someone more knowledge than me checks it out 😀

[sasa]

somewhere JP said that the IG Post routine is meant more for people who aint members of the site (ig followers) and doesnt know how to train REALLY HARD, thus more volume.
He also said if he stated in the post 1 set per exercise people would jsut be like “what???!! 1 set??”

[sasa]

if you want to train that much, maybe PPL split?

[sasa]

oh wow cool! Good luck to that!

yeah stats are exact same as i tought, obv u are leaner with than me 😀
Im on the FBW everyother day from education series as JP made me realise that i am a beginner eventough ive been doing ul/ppl for 2-3 years, been liking it, just dunno as its only 1 set per lift if im bringing enough intensity, mostly for legs as going to failure on leg press, idk lol

[sasa]

hey man, nice physique! just wondering whats ur stats, weight/height? u look like leaner version of me 😀
