Then I tweaked my upper back / neck doing a 145 ohp. Blah. Doesn't feel too serious but I do have to play in a vball tournament this evening... | ||

For squat, bench, military press and variations I've changed to something like 5x3 or 33322 reps with about 3-4 warmup sets consisting of paused and normal reps, from the classic SS 3x5. Was told that this is the best way to put a lot of reps in to practice form while still focusing on strength and going at close to max every time. | ||

Don't do skull crushers, they are either worthless or dangerous. I think chin ups (or curls) would be a nice addition. | ||

I'm just doing random stuff like rear delt raises, skullcrushers, curls, etc, 2-3 exercises for every part, 2-3 sets/high rep, on top of the powerlifts/pull ups for that day. But it feels weird to do high rep/hypertrophy only for rest of the body and low rep for powerlifts. This is what I do. You don't train accessory lifts and heavy compound movements the same. | ||

IPF depth? These all felt pretty good in terms of depth, although they were a little slow. | ||

It's the same for the deadlift. On max attempts, the upper back rounds allowing the abs to generate more tension; aditionally it also shortens the range of motion. Or the triceps; the closer to lockout more weight you can handle. | ||

AFAIK it's a sign of relatively strong quads, and either weak or poorly activated glutes. If it's getting you through your sticking point, you would probably be better off in the long run by figuring out what's going on with the glutes and using them better. Safer for your knees, and better progress over time. | ||

Is this how to get stronger without getting big? Lots of sets but with 2-3 reps? I know that lots of reps over many sets is good for practicing form, and is what I've been pretty much doing. But I'm still trying to figure out a program after SS that considers aesthetics but also helps the main lifts. | ||

There's perfectly safe way to bring in quads to maximize their effectiveness (esp if you are quad dominant like many weightlifters). There's also really shitty way that you see a lot of people with poor hip and ankle mobility bring there knees in that makes me cringe. Make sure you do the former if you do bring them in. | ||
