I think all my joints would collapse like a dying star if I did 1-3 rep max work, if all the tendons in my body didn't snap first.

If you are constantly hitting max weight then you will fry your CNS. If you look at the top level powerlifters and strongman they rarely train anywhere near their potential max lift. |

it's also why most strongman carry 20%+ bf. It helps stabilize and lubricate the joints.

Just got back from the gym.
5 sets of 2 reps at 235 lbs on Bench. Beat that, old men. In all seriousness, who is the most yoked planeteer? Anyone moving serious weight on here? |

Loochy is basically a Greek God, and that's not an exaggeration.

What are these comments?
1. Heavier loads and lower reps cause LESS fatigue 2. Heavier loads change the collagen makeup of the tendons so they become STIFFER leading to LESS injury and injury potential My bests in competition raw was 660 squat no belt no wraps, 485 close grip bench and a 725 deadlift I walk around at about 240 now close to single digits and have been off all the sauce for about 10 years |

Relax mr know it all. I'm just telling him to build his confidence up.
I know from experience and I'm sure you do too - the body is pretty amazing if you take care of it the right way and work hard. I know his post wasn't that serious but I know he can accomplish his goals im sure. not every post on here has to be so scientific. Last edited by PAChiefsGuy; Yesterday at 06:51 PM.. |

To un**** my squat, I was doing ~15 sets in the ~6-10 rep range across 3 workouts/week for several weeks... I was already pissing off my tennis elbow from arm stuff and then added hip and back pain to it. By the time I finished that little project and went on vacation for a couple weeks, the struggle was real, lol. So, that's the baseline of my comment that I'd destroy myself at low rep ranges. And if I was in my 20s, I'd probably do it again and again... but, being mid-40s, I doubt there's as high of a ceiling for joint and body abuse. Yeah, I've learned a ton from a handful of people on YouTube, but at the same time know a lot of what they're talking about might mean a difference of like 2% over time... and I'm all for better/more efficient ways to do things (so I keep watching them), but any of them will tell you none of their nuance matters if you aren't showing up to the gym with a purpose and working hard, then eating right, and getting enough sleep/rest.
