I also just returned after a 2 week vacation but I made sure to eat a lot of pizza and I can report no gains lost.

Lifted with a friend and his little brother. Little bro is a college sophomore and is fairly new to lifting. Between sets on squats little brother goes "I want my thighs to get so big my dick looks small"

Turning 30 this weekend. I guess I'll either get that 3 plate bench or just let the bar crush my throat.

hello first time poster in this here thread. Just wanted to get some information. I've been doing stronglifts for the better part of 5 months and I just switched to 3x5 at 250lbs. Was wondering at what weight other people switched from 5x5 to 3x5?

I never did because I lack the constitution to continue when things get heavy.

Grump posted:hello first time poster in this here thread. There is no "correct weight" because of how strength varies, people start at different weights and also progress at different rates. I think as long as you have some sort of plan you are trying to stick to you will be doing okay. Worse case, it doesn't work well and you come up with a new plan for a different program or whatever.

I tried straight-bar deadlifts yesterday to work on my form so I wouldn't look like such a pussy at the gym and it felt really good. Really felt it in my hammies and glutes. Got up today, lower back is sore. Back to the trap!

just lift through the spinal discomfort. you need to brrak down the connective tissues and bones in your spine in order to build them up stronger

Do lighter weight faster. More power, fewer grinders. Also learn to drop the weight instead of lowering it gently.

more often than not, it's going to result in form that stresses the spine for no reason

Saw a former regular back in the gym after a year or so. He'd lost ~40lbs of muscle. Real sad sight.

Gym is closed until at least Tuesday. Might as well curl debris from the hurricane and get a pump that way.
