I don't know where to put this but...

296 reps with 60 kg

This is so goofy. He's also using the slingshot thing that makes it way easier, probably takes like half the weight for him.

GOOD NEWS EVERYBODY. my GI tract is back to normal today. insh'allah proper appetite will return with it. excellent breakfast this morning: four-egg omelette with sliced fingerling heirloom potatoes, a bit of cheddar, and salmon. roasting potatoes is something i should do more often.

Where the greens at, yo?

I love in the last one how he is basically just laying his legs on his torso. It's so absurd.

Any more word from the doc? Seems like a good sign that you felt solid after this workout and that the headache is reduced.

Squats train hip and knee extension. GHRs train knee flexion. As such, you are using muscle in you hamstrings that either you haven't used much before, or have not used in this way. That would explain the new kind of soreness.

The glutes are not realyl involved in the GHR the way you do it, because glutes pretty much just function at the hip, and the movement you are performing takes place entirely at the knees.

Of course. I really had to think where to put this - the stupid training video or the best thread. He's still a beast though, even if stupid.

Arm wrestlers are professional curl bros. I understand why you're conflicted about him.

I haven't had any major medical procedures like that.

Thanks to that gif I'm imagining your CAT scan went something like Total Recall.

Provide a timeline of your progress in squat vs. SVJ. From what I remember you are insanely strong in squat but you said your SVJ wasn't improving much. In that case the last thing you need to do is squat with your hips. I switched to narrow(er) stance squats, slightly less than shoulder width, and it's been strengtening my quads way more and vj improving. but I can't say much until I get to 3 plates and am jumping consistently above 40 which I rpedict would happen with my new squat form.

i too felt alot of improvement with narrow stances.

Re hip squatting, I suppose I was still thinking as a lifter and not a jumper.

Yo Kingfish, what do you think of 8x5 vs 4x10 for hypertrophy?

I am currently doing 8 sets of 5 reps to get to 40 reps, and the thinking behind that is that I can maintain perfect form and concentration doing only 5 reps per set. The rest periods in between sest is about 30s to 1 minute. Do you think there are any issues with that mindset for hypertrophy vs going with a 4x10?

Thanks!

Both rep scheme will obviously elicit similar amounts of hypertrophy, it's just a matter of experimenting and choosing the one you think you will stick with and make the best progress by doing.

http://chaosandpain.blogspot.co.uk/ <-- that guy has massive legs and a big squat doing tons of sets of low reps always.
http://www.lift-run-bang.com/ <-- that guy has massive legs and a big squat doing higher reps when lifting to gain size and training singles when going for strength.

Edit: The current most recent article on the second of those sites is pretty relevant.
