"Please put the weights back at in their right place before you leave." Say that to the motherfucker who put 25 kgs infront of 5's and 2.5's ffs man. So I end up cleaning up the previous motherfucker who squatted before me just so I could deadlift 5 times.

I don't mind the exercise, but jesus next time the dude comes up to me and says that I'm gonna tell him off. Silly shit....

Ahh just filled up my freezer with 30kg of fresh älgkött!(moose meat ) Lean, high quality meat straight from the wild, it's gonna be gooooooood.
I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds.

Shit work out today, just got through 5X5 205 squats and tried for 210 today. My hamstrings felt sore from wednesday and I could barely go full squat without any weight, ended up just doing 5 sets of 2. This is weird since after getting used to squatting 3 times a week there was never a point where I felt to sore to squat. Foam rolled my legs felt nice. Is this a sign that I should be switching to 3X5 after my next deload? (3.5 months in, deloaded once for form, once for weight being too heavy)

So I do actual work for a living and squatting 3x a week is not going well at all. I had a random 3day weekend last weekend and fucking destroyed all my lifts on monday np. Was seriously one of the easiest sessions I've had in a couple months and my squat/bench/dl were all PR's. When I try to go 3x a week and squat every session wednesday/friday I have super hard times getting my weights and usually stall on wednesday and if not I do on friday.

Is there some program like SS that has an easy day on wednesday? Could I mess around with my SS program to give myself an easy day on wednesday? Kind of like a modified madcow just with heavy 3x5 on monday/friday instead of heavy 5 on monday and heavy 3 on friday?

I'm taking a break until next monday because of a couple legitimate reasons. I dont' bitch on on gym sessions, but this whole work & heavy squat thing is not going as I feel SS is supposed to go or how well it was going earlier. I'm not stalling because my novice gains are gone, I know that because of how easy I destroy PR's if I get a two day rest and lift the second night.

Thoughts?


When you say "actual work" does that mean you are doing manual labor?

If you are feeling trashed, it's possible you aren't eating enough.

Yes.

Thanks for all the replies guys. I dunno what I'm going to do yet but it's all very helpful <3

Ok so I was listening to some swedish radio channel today and they had a fitness "expert" there to talk about training with weights. And he claimed that strength training and muscle building will make you die at an earlier age. To quote him:
"Muscle building and strength training has nothing to do with health, it's the exact opposite".
I only remember a few reasons why he claimed strength training was bad but some of them was increased testosterone production, oxidative stress and.... "lots of food". And now when I'm visiting a swedish forum about strength training everyone seems to think all of this is true.

Please, help me debunk this?

Here in Australia we can get kangaroo meat, it's also super duper lean. A bit trickier to cook though.

how much are the plates? Back in school, the plates were similarly coloured

green: 10 lb
yellow: 25
blue: 35
red: 45

But that seemed too light for you, even on a bad day??

For a serious answer ... :p

Bent over barbell rows/pendlay rows are acceptable. Also, you can just do the Wichita Falls program if you want to incorporate a lot of pull ups into SS. But I think a completely viable option is to just gain the flexibility to do cleans... it only takes like a week for people with very stiff shoulders to stretch enough to be able to put the barbell in the rack position.

I think Pendlay's site has some good stretches for this. I'd give you the info but I'm on my way out the door.
