Possibly not related but what's the optimal grip width for ohp? Is it shoulder width?

>>76584473 (OP)
Barbell is all you need btw

>>76584483
I did shoulder width when I used to do them with a bar. Now I do wide grip on a seated press machine (no homo).

How do you do lats without barbell rows which are terrible?

Not him, but you could do barbell pullovers tho honestly the beauty of squat stands + barbell is that you can just put the stands on tallest setting, put a barbell on and do pullups like that.

What does MET stand for?
I do most of that except for bench. No sandbags yet, but I'm planning to get them eventually.
My routine:
A
weighted pullups (fatgrips)
weighted dips on rings
front squats (though i'm rather conservative with the weight)
weighted back extensions
lateral raises (fatgrips)
standing french press with a short barbell (fatgrips)
hanging leg raises (fatgrips)
wrist roller

B
weighted australian pullups on rings (fatgrips)
1 arm ohp with dumbbell
db kroc row (fatgrips)
weighted pushups on handles
curls with neutral grip barbell (fatgrips)
ab roller
weighted ring flyes (mostly pump work, not going heavy)

C (sub-day)
calf raises with a db (fatgrips)
pullups on wooden balls

Each one is done once a week with high intensity and mostly to failure with rest pause.
Basically MET (whatever that is) meets MEnTzer, though I hope I haven't been MEmed hard.

>>76587067

>>76584473 (OP)
>Home gym: barbell + squat stands + bench
Stupid. Squats will kill your spine while bench will kill you when barbell ends on your neck.
If you want home gym then buy dumbbell and do single arm exercises.

Also, what do you think about street workout and street gyms? They exist in Europe.

>>76587067
>Basically MET (whatever that is) meets MEnTzer, though I hope I haven't been MEmed hard.
>> literally every exercise is either fat grip version or a meme grip exercise
You 100% certifiably officially and unequivocally got memed.
If you drop all the fat grips it would actually start to resemble a decent routine. Though you look good.
I suspect you saw slowed down progress and hopped to the most quirky looking routine

These are powersharting memes. Only destroy your back.

Also squats are expensive to do at home, you need 500 dollar equipment. If you do single leg squats you need 50 dollar.

Fixed this for me

>>76587138
> These are powersharting memes.
No. Front and low bar squats are powersharting memes. High bar squat is the best exercise on the planet (aside from safety squats if they fit you)

For deadlifts you can do RDLs

memes aside I don't feel DLs and squats were that good at it, regular weight training lacks the 3d chaos factor IMO, a few hours of landscaping and pulling out stumps always made me feel my muscles in a way that no kind of BB exercises would

Checks out.

>>76587155
I was also thinking about getting a REALLY sturdy backpack and filling it with plates without fucking around with sand or other bullshit and just doing sandbag-like movements with it w/o using handles

>>76587149
High bar squat can still damage your spine and joints.
For legs you can do one leg exercises (circus tricks) without risking the spine.

>>76587156
There is large number of people on /fit/ that say how squats and deadlift damaged their back.
>but they did something incorrect
If exercise destroys your spine just because you don't have perfect form, then it's dangerous and should be replaced with different exercise.

>>76587160
I am already using backpack like that. But I put concrete blocks and bricks inside. Iron plates would be better, they are denser than concrete, but more expensive.

>>76587176
I have enough plates, even with my limited setup, the bigger problem is probably how this bag would behave in less conventional movement, it wouldn't be as harmless and sandbags upon contact with your body.

Lmao. I bought my whole setup for I think ~200 usd, <300 if including new bench

> If you do single leg squats you need 50 dollar.
Saar or you can just make a couple hundred bucks extra and just buy a fucking barbell saar. Also very quickly you'll reach full capacity with your backpack especially if you don't even have plates. I got to something like +25 lb with water bottles and my backpack was basically full at that point

>>76587776

Can we see?

>>76587155
> I don't have one, I'm trying to keep everything low-weight (I lift in my work room and try to spare space)
gotcha. Yeah that's fine. I'd still prefer regular dip bars but hey

> why? I mean, these are just db lateral raises with fat grips (they're def not a bottleneck here)
if grip doesn't bottleneck you it's fine but honestly just do a couple of sets of grippers or something

> pic rel but with a neutral grip barbell
pic rel never came

> I know it looks weird but I always wanted big forearms yet the fate tries to leave me a forearmlet, I'm fighting the odds
yeah I'd just do 3+ sets of good forearms exercises every day or 6/7. Stuff like grippers, dumbbell wrist curls etc

> just a regular db row variation, though here fatgrips to be a very limiting factor, bc I go quite heavy
yeah again, just do separate grip work. Otherwise you're getting shit stimulus for both

> I have some latent wrist injury and can't really do underhand grip, neutral grip makes curls pain free
I kekked at curling with fat grips

>>76587160
Sure. Though for legs you can do backpack pistol squats. For hams obviously nordic curls

>>76587170
>High bar squat can still damage your spine and joints.
nah it makes em stronger
> For legs you can do one leg exercises (circus tricks) without risking the spine.
They still load your spine and because they require balance there's MORE risk of bs happening

> There is large number of people on /fit/ that say how squats and deadlift damaged their back.
they are retards probably
> If exercise destroys your spine just because you don't have perfect form, then it's dangerous and should be replaced with different exercise.
Wrong. You just need basically decent form.
Beyond that EVERYTHING carries a risk of injury including taking a shower.

Welcome to /met/

>>76587776
>Lmao. I bought my whole setup for I think ~200 usd, <300 if including new bench
For 200 you can buy 80 kg / 176 lb of iron plates. This is too little for squats.
>Also very quickly you'll reach full capacity with your backpack especially if you don't even have plates. I got to something like +25 lb with water bottles and my backpack was basically full at that point
Water has low density, I am using concrete and bricks, they have density 3 times bigger than water or even more.

>>76587830
>For hams obviously nordic curls
I am doing single leg deadlifts. I might do nordic curls in the future.

>>76587841
>They still load your spine and because they require balance there's MORE risk of bs happening
They load nothing, you need few times less weight for single leg squat compared to dual leg squat.

Street workout doesn't require any equipment but you can buy backpack and put concrete into it, then pull ups and dips.

>>76587744
Scale status?

MET is based.

>>76584473 (OP)
I've been using my kettlebell a lot recently because I can't be bothered to do more. I actually feel great. I had to move some heavy furniture yesterday and today feels like any other day. Thank you kettlebell.

>>76588461
Faggot nobody thinks you are multiple people. You are literally the only person shitting up these threads with the same exact transparent tactic for a year now.

>>76589080
>For 200 you can buy 80 kg / 176 lb of iron plates. This is too little for squats.
The secret is to buy USED equipment. FB marketplace ftw

>>76589080
>I am doing single leg deadlifts.
Unless you're 98 years old it's literally impossible to load them enough even with backpack full of concrete

>>76590132
Are there adjustable kettlebells? If not, then adjustable dumbbells seems better.

>>76590360
I don't believe used would be much cheaper unless it's stolen.

>>76589080
>They load nothing, you need few times less weight for single leg squat compared to dual leg squat.
Not few times, two times. But the bigger point is that the glassback mentality is simply wrong and injuries in powerlifting are LOWER THAN IN ANY SPORT aside from bodybuilding.

>>76590379
I just did them recently with 17 kg (37 lb) of concrete. Only could do few reps. Trained to failure.
But I didn't put backpack on my back, I was holding it with my arms.

>>76590384
>Are there adjustable kettlebells? If not, then adjustable dumbbells seems better.
I've seen pictures of some but ultimately adjustable dumbbells are 100% better since kettlebells are just shit dumbbells to begin with

>>76590397
> 17 kg deadlifts
> to failure
> could only do a few reps
What. The. Fuck. I wanna see your body

>>76590385
>Not few times, two times.
squat = 150lb body + 200lb barbell = 350lb and 175lb per leg
pistol squat = 150lb body + 100lb extra weight = 250lb and 250lb per leg
It's more than two times difference when you account body weight.
>But the bigger point i€s that the glassback mentality is simply wrong and injuries in powerlifting are LOWER THAN IN ANY SPORT aside from bodybuilding.
This is true but why take more risk when you can do safer alternatives. Also, squats and deadlifts are very expensive to do if you don't go to gym but have home gym.

>>76590438
Learn to read, I am talking about single leg deadlift. If I did double leg I would do many times more than 17 kg.

>>76590440
>This is true but why take more risk when you can do safer alternatives.
Because it also carries more reward making you overall stronger and more resilient protecting against injuries and weakness that's gonna creep in after ~60.
> Also, squats and deadlifts are very expensive to do if you don't go to gym but have home gym.
I paid maybe 200 usd if that buying used equipment. And if you're patient you can find even better deals. Somebody was literally giving away an entire power cage for free that I didnt bother to pick up

>>76590452
But that's still ~32 kg in deadlift equivalent

>>76590464
Wrong.

Barbell Basics. Squat, deadlifts and similar

> I want to develop the kind of rugged strength that would make you able to pick weird stuff, haul heavy shit, be robust
99% of that is BARBELL HEAVY BASICS. And then one you have a legit strength base you can start adding strongman movements or sandbag stuff

>Panzram wrote that he was "the spirit of meanness personified[10]" and that he would often rape men whom he had robbed. He was noted for his large stature and great physical strength—due to years of hard labor at Leavenworth and other prisons—which aided him in overpowering most men
Yeah most of it is genetics. Le hecking hard labah is a literal meme. It's called junk volume.

> regular weight training lacks the 3d chaos factor IMO
for 3d chaos you just do whatever it is you plan on using strength for - sports, martial arts, rape etc.

>>76590503
>what's not a meme then?
Weighted calisthenics and dumbbell compounds.

>>76590504
I did deadlift 10 years ago, I did only 200 lb because of my grip strength. Seems to be a forearm exercise rather than back exercise. My squat was much bigger than my deadlift.

>>76590608
>I did only 200 lb because of my grip strength.
See even that is inconsistent with 17 fucking kilos for a few reps to failure. That's the problem with meme lifts - failure is due to balance or delusion.

> Seems to be a forearm exercise rather than back exercise
Yeah you need straps early on. I bought chalk but even with that it's always forearms giving out. I wonder what my actual DL strength is

>>76584473 (OP)
anybody know good ways to make diy wrist straps?

>>76590642

>>76590630
>See even that is inconsistent with 17 fucking kilos for a few reps to failure. That's the problem with meme lifts - failure is due to balance or delusion.
I think you are wrong and prejudiced. Exercises such as pistol squat or single leg deadlift can load your muscles with more efficiency, they are harder.
When I finished single leg deadlift I felt pain and tension in hamstrings. The exercise really works.
You think 17 kg is little but you forget that the leg was also lifting body weight.

>Yeah you need straps early on. I bought chalk but even with that it's always forearms giving out. I wonder what my actual DL strength is
Straps are a meme. If God wanted you to lift so much, he would give you stronger grip and fingers. Powersharting is a meme. It's blasphemy.

>>76590642
Do not use straps.

>>76590823
>Exercises such as pistol squat or single leg deadlift can load your muscles with more efficiency, they are harder.
Nothing against these exercises in particular but they have to be overloaded and trained close to failure and people very often bullshit themselves into doing "hard" but far from failure workouts.

> When I finished single leg deadlift I felt pain and tension in hamstrings.
You can feel tension and pain and still be very far from failure especially for 12++ rep sets

>>76591215
A bunch of people posted photos and vids of themselves but of course you're a samefagging troll who just spams the same shit all over the thread

My sandbag almost weighs 200lbs now.
Anyone who says they’re a meme is a dyel who has never actually tried them. My back has gotten so thick I no longer look small in a shirt and I couldn’t hurt my back if I tried. Never touched a barbell before, don’t plan to except to test my strength in a few months. You absolutely don’t need iron if you’re on a budget.

>>76591625
11 reps or sets? how much do you even weigh for that to be challenging?

>>76591739
absolutely. come on in street bro

>>76591937
isometrics are a meme
Sure if there's NOTHING else you can do - for example for hams, you could do a hard stretch for 10-15 min but that's about it as far as practical utility goes

>>76592042
That might all be true but the point is you'd make more gains if you did mainly barbell/dumbbell/machine stuff. But yes, it still works

>>76592042
just figured you could get a cheap-ish boxing bag, get rubber granulate or something like that that won't make too much mess, fill pre-fill bags, put bags into the boxing bag, tape it and it should be ready to use for less than 75 eur
it sounds quite simple

Lmaoing at your life

>>76592075
I very much disagree. There’s no better exercise for the whole posterior chain than a heavy sandbag lift. No barbell lift comes close.
I do calisthenics and isolations with bands but if I had access I’d probably use dbs and machines for that.

Indeed, it is quite lovely this morning.

>>76592473
Understandable, have a great day

>>76592473
You see sandbags are just really efficient. To emulate a sandbag lift you’d have to do a bunch of different lifts. Deficit deadlifts, zercher squats, bicep curls, reverse curls, wrist curls with a fat grip to emulate the open finger position, pec flies for squeezing, rows or pull ups for pulling it in, unilateral variations to emulate the shoulder position, loaded carries, and it STILL wouldn’t be as effective as the real thing. It’s an exercise in futility. I’m just trying to save anons money and time here.

>>76592626
I mean in that sense if your goal is to minimize time and money spent sure. Just keep in mind that the stimulus each muscle is getting is highly suboptimal. You'll make gains until a certain point and then it'll really slow down

>>76592651

>>76584473 (OP)
lol... can't even find a real pic of a fit looking person who does what you're proposing? keyboard fag.

>>76593010
Either actual schizo or some loser troll who thinks it's good investment of his time. He's been doing this for over a year now.

But the worst part is - the reason we haven't had these threads in a while is because the original OP quit after seeing that janny was literally helping the spammer. He would never ban/delete the obvious samefag despite multiple violations but the moment OP called it out the whole thread got wiped for no reason. Then he made a meta thread about wtf just happened with all the screenshots - and that got deleted and I assume he got banned and left the board.
Eventually I was like fuck it somebody has to make these.

I'm so fucking glad these faggot jannies are gone. At this point there's no debate that they were actively working to make this site worse.

>>76593010
I actually saved the receipts from back then and yeah he was always doing the same exact shtick

Note how he didn't even bother to change up the posts. Never got banned. Only OP or one of us would for calling him out.

Used to be many such cases

>>76594190
That's a good point. In the original post, OP neglected to answer the following:
> home gym

Sounds like a good way to contribute to your own thread to start a dialog.

Bought chalk only to discover my forearms still limit deadlifts but hey at least not as much.

Here's my current program:
> 1xDL, 5xRDL + 1xBabrell curls
> 5xBench + 1xNeck curls
> 5xUnderhand weighted pullups + 1xZercher Jefferson deadlifts
> 5xHB Squats + 1xBarbell upright rows
> 1xOHP, 1xBarbell rows, 1xRussian twists, 1xBarbell side bends

What triggers my autism is I never know where to put each accessory so they don't fuck up my performance on core lifts

That's kinda the plan to do joogs after upper days and punch ze bag after lower day but realistically I cant even always do core lifts

> Stretch >> Eat
I do that before eating sometimes but regardless of training

>>76594406
Deadlift is retarded, stop doing it.

>>76594434
>What is stamina?
Endurance.

>>76594434
>What is stamina?
HIIT, agility/sprints, or circuit

>>76594496
>>76594468

So also cardio

>>76594684
No, muscular endurance / strength endurance, is different from cardio. Cardio is when you walk or slowly ride a bicycle, for long distance. Muscular endurance is when you do something and you can do 15-50 reps or one minute. Compared to this, cardio you can do infinitely, for hours.

>>76594684
No.

>>76594830
>No, muscular endurance / strength endurance, is different from cardio
Actually it ain't. It's literally cardio + strength.

>>76595811
Retard you made like 30 identical posts about this already. When will you fuck off?

>>76595935
Yet zero identical posts of a gym being posted. Curious.

>>76595990
The only thing I'm curious about is why are you not taking your meds

>>76595935
you post /met/ threads and refuse to post setup. when will you fuck off? you have an addiction to spamming I think.

Someone is attacking this thread. They don't like /met/ because it's cheap or even free.

>>76596693
I have also a few extra items like ab roller, wrist roller, grippers, rubber bands and other shit like that that can be stored in a single drawer.
I also have a back extension bench that actually takes up some space but seemed rehabilitate my busted lower back (from heavy bb compounds in actual gyms, no less), so I don't regret getting it rather than a bench.
I could replace this pullup bar with a cage setup that would allow me to bench, squat and so on, but I'm staying away from it on purpose. Less weights needed means less mess and less space needed, hence I'm all about weighted calisthenics and stuff like 1 arm DB OHP. It's just safer and more convenient.

>>76597165
how do you call your psychiatrist?

>>76597171
Based. Has pull ups, dips, one dumbbell. Everything that is needed.
I will have similar setup but without rings for dips, I am doing dips on two chairs, I hope they won't break.

>>76597176

Well back when jannies were here they literally banned OP instead of the obvious spamming troll: >>76594190

Let's see.

hyperfixation on squats and other compound was more of a mistake and I deal with the consequences to this day
>>76598102
no clue about 1rm but i'm doing 37.5kg for clean reps

>>76598333
>hyperfixation on squats and other compound was more of a mistake and I deal with the consequences to this day
what happened?

> no clue about 1rm but i'm doing 37.5kg for clean reps
is it like half of ohp in terms of weight or is it harder?

>>76598367
>what happened?
fucked my lower back, probably herniated a couple discs, it got better with time (meaning years), lower back extensions have helped a lot, but any exercise that's likely to give you such an injury might have a bad risk-reward ratio, because realistically what will heavy squats bring you that safer exercises cannot? there's not much use for being able to squat a shitload on a barbell and a lot to lose if your spine goes to the snap city
>is it like half of ohp in terms of weight or is it harder?
prolly harder just like any other db variant, pressing 50kg dbs on a bench is harder than benching 2 plates on a barbell and if I remember correctly OHpressing 75kg was easier than that

>>76598502
>what will heavy squats bring you that safer exercises cannot?
bmd, bigger and stronger ligaments and tendons, more stable joints; higher general strength

>>76598584
Wrong, pistol squats will load your legs (including tendons) as hard as dual leg squats, the difference is pistol squat will save your spine, you don't need to load it as heavily.

MET is good

you can just say bump

This schizo really thinks he convinced anyone he’s more than one person

Imagine being such a hall
Monitor you watch an on topic thread like a Hawk to make sure you shit it up kek

>>76599346
I think you might be the schizo

>>76592042
Based, what's your sandbag routine

>>76598816
So in other words, it doesn't strengthen your back. Gotcha.

>>76584473 (OP)
any tips on how to put the bar on the back evenly when squatting? I used to do it in front of a mirror in a gym but now I'm just staring at a wall and end up putting it a bit off to one side

>>76599625
Same, I suspect it's actually because my traps are asymmetrical

>>76599625
lol

>n-no u!

>>76599602
Squats do not strengthen your back. They can only damage your spine.

>>76600804

>>76601740
Wrong.

>Squats do not strengthen your back.
So the powerlifters who are squatting 500 lb do not have stronger backs than glassbacks who do pistols?

>>76584473 (OP)
>> recent PRs
did lmao2pl8 squat but almost killed myself desu lol

>>76602232
They have strong backs from deadlifts and rows.

I don't know why op makes this weird thread. He doesn't lift and doesn't have a home gym.

>>76586796
Total clanker death

The schizo gets an anxiety attack anytime it gets a bvmp lol

>>76603077

>inb4 fat
i know lol i overbulked, i'm cutting right now.
don't get me wrong, i'm not saying that barbells don't work, i'm just saying that sandbags worked for me. they are certainly not just a "highly suboptimal" alternative for losers who gave up on real training, as they are often made out to be by people who've never actually tried it before.

>>76599561
i'm running sandbag intensity by 'the stone circle' on yt, except i don't consistently do the calisthenics portion of the program.

>>76603605

>>76603059
Yes.
Squats load your spine (bones and joints) but not muscles.

good

>>76587744
Stop nooooticing

>>76603878
Height and bf corrected we're roughly equal (but of course I'm taller so I'm inherently superior)

Show front to confirm

>>76604362
It obviously works back and traps isometrically, but the point is loading bones and joints is WHAT MAKES THEM STRONGER and they are the frame which determines the cap for your strength since you can't get much stronger with the same shitty weak bones and joints

>>76605226
> but the point is loading bones and joints is WHAT MAKES THEM STRONGER
WRONG
construction workers load their spine everyday and they have disabilities when they are older
office workers sit all day and they live long healthy life

>>76605633
they load their backs CHRONICALLY and with LIGHT WEIGHTS aka JUNK VOLUME. Yes, that will absolutely wreck you because it's the opposite of how training works.

If you do it PERIODICALLY for INTENSE BURSTS then you get ADAPTATION.

>>76592045
>Next OP will sperg out about how there's exactly 1 (one) person on this board who has it out for him, as opposed to the small handful of people who just think he's a preachy retard and also a DYEL

> who just think he's a preachy retard
You know what, I'm starting to get the picture here.
I actually do remember that he started this shit roughly around some other guy getting upset after somebody explained to him why maces (or something memey like that) were retarded.

This is some pussy who probably got his feefees hurt when OP told him his clown shit methods of juggling dildos or whatever don't work and he decided to samefag in every MET thread to get his vengeance lmao.
Which is the most pathetic reason to spam a thread out of all of the pathetic reasons that there are.

> handful of people
> people

>>76584483
Hands just outside of shoulders. Might depend on your proportions.

>>76606418
thats kinda what I came to but I wonder if "just outside" means couple fingers farther away from the center or just full hand width shifted to the sides

Actually same question for bench

>>76606485
>thats kinda what I came to but I wonder if "just outside" means couple fingers farther away from the center or just full hand width shifted to the sides

It depends on your body proportions, the only way to really know what works for you is experimenting.

>Actually same question for bench

Same thing. My bench grip is relatively narrow, but that's because I have a wide torso and relatively short arms. A guy with a narrow torso and longer arms would probably benefit from a wider grip.

>>76606512
makes sense

>>76605215
you will do anything not to show your own body
if your body is worse than my doughy, out of shape ass then you should be ashamed of yourself.

What are weighted pistol squats and one leg deadlift.

>>76615324
While I'm sure a big giu like you could BSS 180 lb, he might get by with some weighted lunges

>>76615712
>180 lb
But he only has 90 pounds

>>76615333
stfu kekke no one is fooled by you samefagging

>>76615549
>one leg deadlift.
This again lol. You can't do any kind of challenging weight on those
If anything one legged good mornings could make SOME sense at least

>>76616067
But what I mean by single leg deadlift, it is different from two leg deadlift, you should put your torso horizontal, so maybe it looks more like good morning. It is legit exercise for hamstring and ass.
