Thread 76538046

so the secret is sets of many reps with low to moderate manageable weights, never getting injured and just having fun every workout on compound movements with some curls for girls at the end??

all this time I've been following rippleshits and I started my weightlifting journey here 15 years ago, got hurt in the first year doing ss, then took 3 years off, went back to ss, got demotivated, took 10 years off, and now I'm back did ss again, got to weights that other people consider small except for my shoulder press, which is very good, got extremely burnt out

converted to a bodybuilding style routine and I feel amazing, rep work with moderate to "low" weights feels incredible, I don't feel stressed to get under the bar, it just feels good

of course I progress up to working sets but I don't think about weight anymore, I just think about the movement being proper and challenging enough granted enough reps 5-10 and sets and I've noticed my best physique changes recently after doing this

you can progress in reps instead of muh weight, which eventually gets you to weight

at this point I just think powerlifting is more dick measuring than even bodybuilding is, what's the point of lifting the heaviest weight you can if you're just risking injury

I'd blow my brains out if I lifted for 15 years and never reach my natural limit

>>76538050
I didn't lift for 15 years, I have at most 3 years lifting experience combined

>>76538051
I know bro it was a joke. Congratulations on finding out powerlifting sucks ass. But if you want to get big you will have to do heavy weights for a lot of reps

>>76538055
I'm already big, my arms are 18 inches my hammer curl max is like 6 reps with the 35s

my shoulder width is pretty impressive

I just don't really think it's true, my legs are like 28ish inches and I rarely even squat over 225 at the moment

I am overweight but these measurements would change by like 1 inch at best if I was 20% bodyfat

there is a video of phil heath saying he did squats during the months up to contest prep at like 185 in the smith machine and I believe there is video of him doing this

I just watched a short where tom platz said that arnold didn't do curls with anything over 40lb dumbells

what you and I consider heavy might not be the same, and how big are we even talking

>>76538046 (OP)
curls are a compound movement

>>76538073
>my arms are 18 inches

Oh okay, you're retarded I tried to give you the a chance.

>I am overweight

Obviously

>these measurements would change by like 1 inch at best if I was 20% bodyfat

Delusions

>rarely even squat over 225 at the moment

Kek

Okay good troll, you had me going for a second

I watched a YouTube short LMFAO

>>76538255
just because you're a small faggot doesn't mean everyone else is small as well

you think I'm delusional yet I have the tape measure and take the measurements while you sit there seething with your 15 inch arms

yes I watched videos where phil heath says he doesn't squat over 185 in the smith machine in the months before contest, I think mike israetels video on him has the clip, and tom platz said arnold didn't use dumbells over 40 to do curls with

you are the seething small bitch trying to act big because you struggle fuck a heavier weight with dogshit form and you have small muscles

bravo

Huh looks like lefty is at 19 today

Ez work I guess

Only started curling like 2 or 3 months ago

On my second cycle of 12.5mg enclo and 10mg ac262

Ez work am I right

I've been eating in a huge caloric deficit for the past month and actually ate 2k calories yesterday so I'm felling pretty pumped atm, went to the gym last on thursday

Started taking t3 like a week ago and I think that might be part of the huge pump I'm feeling this morning

>retard finally figures out dual progression schemes
>pretends this is revolutionary
Next thing you'll figure out is bar speed for triple progression.

>>76539406
your mom makes my penis progress in inches???

>>76539406
I'm not just arguing for less weight in general, I'm arguing for more reps and better form, so I guess that would be the triple progression, and muh bar speed is part of form, so I guess I already did that

>>76539321
Lmao who let this hobo use the library bathroom? Thank you for the laugh. My grandma mogs the fuck out of she has 22 inch pythons

>>76539425
Funny thing if I actually went on test I would have Mr olympia tier 22 inch arms, lol ez

>>76539471
But the fat isn't on my arms and you just got blown out small fry

Keep trying though I'm sure you'll get those 15 inch pytons some day

>>76539518
>the fat isn't on my arms

>>76539526
Correct there is an inch of fat at most and that's still bigger than your arm, right buddy

>>76539537
No this is my arm, way bigger than yours

>>76539544
Whatever makes you feel better than me having less muscle than me and taking 500mgs test per week
