I have bought Base and Peak strength. I can honestly say that if I read these when I started 10 years ago I’d be probably 10-20lbs of muscle larger than I am now. These books are about $20 each but if they were $100 each they’d still be worth it. Get them, you won’t regret it.
@@nintendoborn nothing is needed but it is useful. It’s best listen to a lot of people and figure out the strategies and approaches that work with you. Also some people explain ideas better than others and help you understand ideas you may have read before but didn’t really understand. If you’re on a budget, I’d get base strength. For most people I think it will give them a good base of information.
Thank you Alex! I've been following you for a long time and love your videos and wisdom on the subject. You've helped me and you're helping me a lot and I think this video is perfect, I needed it, Perfect timing❤😂
Programing mean shitjack for the average person who exercises recreationally and has many other responsibilities to do just lift hard for 3 years consistency systematically and you will reach 80% of your potential, which will still make you 99% better than the current society that dont lift at all and eat fastfoods in the old days we only did pull ups, dips and single leg squats without any program and everyone was jack and swole
Always when we need you most Brom, you drop the right video. I have been programming the second month of KONG for 6 months straight now (because I had some life problems and keeping myself at the gym maintained my sanity. This was the month I enjoyed most) and need something different. My work capcity is insane but my joints are worn. Maybe time to hit a GVS or BOM split.
bromley off topic. But should I valsalva during RDLs or just breathe through the braced position and stick to valsalva for things like convential deadlifts or very low rep RDLs?
I'm following your programme ( forget the name but its one of those on boostcamp) did 2 lots of 9 weeks tested my deadlift and hit 270kg today no straps on the hexbar! so thanks for the excellent programming! question: how does a hexbar DL translate to a conventional? I'll never DL with a bar again because of a bulging disk... just curious as I want to hit a 3x BW deadlift by xmas and know i'll need to up the weight on the trap bar to make things equal. BW is 92kg
I wouldn't mix the two. Oly Lifting is extremely technical and fatiguing; doing 6 sets of bench after 10x1 on snatch doesn't sound great. Plus, they're different types of training entirely.
Preciate it Bromley but the one thing i can NEVER seem to program is abs. After all the sets i do prior to hitting abs i find myself too fatigued to give them any real work. This made me consider giving an entire day to abs but that seems like a waste. There's also the option of doing them before my major lifts but again the fatigue cost doesn't seem worth it. Is there an optimal way to program them or should i just suck it up and do what i can?
I had the same problem years ago. Doing yoga 15-30 minutes three to six times a week solved the problem. Also the yoga session was the perfect preparation warmup for my heavy lifting. Good luck.
Just superset them with your secondary or tertiary work on lower body days. And the fatigue cost will be negligible if you just commit to it for a few weeks
Just do them in the morning, right after you wake up. You can hit them every morning if you really want to, they recover just fine. That takes maybe 10 minutes, so there will always be time for that ;-).
@@nh1776 I don't often superset. Would I take a break after doing both exercises back to back, or is my rest the recovery that's happening while doing the other movement? Thanks for the feedback.
What if I have no powerlifting and any kind of programming experience but I am at a nearly elite level of strength? I got pretty strong never doing a program but just sticking to few of my principles.
@@_mishal____ As far as weight, reps, sets, rest time is concerned it was never a fixed number. It was what I felt like at that moment. Some days I would do bench press for 3 working sets of 12 reps and on some days for 8 reps. Sometimes I would go for a 1 rep max for my first working set and then do 3 sets of 10 reps. Sometimes I would just do 1 rep max for 3 sets and do that for weeks. My "program" is most closely comparable with a bodybuilding bro split except I would have varying rep ranges and set numbers for all exercises. The only thing that is consistent is that I would almost always go to failure on all exercises and sets. I would also give it my all every training and would almost never miss a training session. Training sessions usually last 2-3 hours. Used to do 6 days a week, then 5 and now only 4 since my body can't recover from the insane volume.
hollup. Can we talk about what looks like Bromley doing a Continental Dick Clean at 3:40? Is this the extra step I've been missing that'll blow up my axle? O_O
“You have a problem and it’s your program”
When my program is 70’s Powerlifter: 😰
I think you're excluded from this one!
Im following the get to the gym and get the blood flowing regularly program.
Ahh, the "working out to live" program. The most virtuous one there is.
@@AlexanderBromley cheers mate thanks for all the great content
That right there is the proper use of a treadmill😂
Where are all the program hoppers?!?! I’m here 👋

Hey man if writing down a series of exercises is too hard for you just say so, I'm doing perfectly fine keeping track of what I do

I'm following a 12 week bench program I've ran it 2x now and I've hit a 5kg pr both times round
Without knowing your experience level I cant tell if this is great or not.
What’s program?
@@carlosbell5316 brad Gillingham 12 week bench program
Congrats on 2 PRs over the past two training cycles.
I mean, thats good if you are late intermediate or advanced but bad if you are a Begginer tbh
As always, good stuff 👏
You look back in shape brother, bless you and your family, cheers from Greece
9:10 get yourself a family that loves to watch you do your utmost passion, in this case lifting. so wholesome ❤
"Does this program spark joy?"
Well i'm screwed then.....
If by joy you mean unbearable dread, then yes. 😁
I've been following the Base Strength app for the last month. Training is finally fun again!! 70s powerlifter 3 days a week, the pump is real!!
The baby in the gym is awesome. ❤
The first program i ran was 70's powerlifter. Am I cooked chat?
Was my 2nd program.
I only follow a program for my main lifts the after lifts are just how I feel about it
Thank you
I'm following your program!
Nice quads dude 👌
Can we get a home gym tour ?
I think he’s already done one.
@@MrAmadeus1998 well can you tell me when it was posted
Yesssss Bromley on the Jefferson Curls
please talk about the muscle fibers type a and b and how to develop type IIb
Mr. Bromley, can you offer any 15,30 minute Consults ?
Mostly to ask advice & questions on my training.. Interm/Advanced.
Got any recommendations for programs like the example mentioned at 07:19?
bromley off topic. But should I valsalva during RDLs or just breathe through the braced position and stick to valsalva for things like convential deadlifts or very low rep RDLs?
Doing Anrold's golden six with some tweaks , and ond rest day boxing or rucking 5 km with 20 kg
I can not keep my left shoulder pinned down while I'm benching. I've tried everything.
I'm following your programme ( forget the name but its one of those on boostcamp)
did 2 lots of 9 weeks
tested my deadlift and hit 270kg today no straps on the hexbar!
so thanks for the excellent programming!
question: how does a hexbar DL translate to a conventional?
I'll never DL with a bar again because of a bulging disk...
just curious as I want to hit a 3x BW deadlift by xmas and know i'll need to up the weight on the trap bar to make things equal.
BW is 92kg
Is the bulging disk still a major issue? You should try reincorporating it back into your programming and take is slow
My favorite irish thumb in youtube
It can’t be!!! I’m using one of yours!
I just do volume and more volume based on my recovery. Add weight,reps,sets.
I want ur quads god damn Bromley
Any recommendations for setting up a good powerlifting and olympic lifting mixed program
I wouldn't mix the two. Oly Lifting is extremely technical and fatiguing; doing 6 sets of bench after 10x1 on snatch doesn't sound great.
Plus, they're different types of training entirely.
Sure 3 days a week, I do clean & jerk, bench, rdl, upper on mon & fri. On Wed it’s all legs. You could do snatches on Wed
Probably splitting the week onto oly and powerlifting days gonna work.
I have a problem and its not doing my auxiliary work
Go Bromley
i dont have a program, i have a brain
And the solution is Base Strength AI
First! Love your content Alex
Bold of you to assume I have a plan 😂
I can't imagine following a premade program at this point
Have been programming for myself for a few years now
Need a program that allows me to train 24/7 without accumulating fatigue.
After Kong. What are the suggestions?
Preciate it Bromley but the one thing i can NEVER seem to program is abs. After all the sets i do prior to hitting abs i find myself too fatigued to give them any real work. This made me consider giving an entire day to abs but that seems like a waste. There's also the option of doing them before my major lifts but again the fatigue cost doesn't seem worth it.

Fortunately I am program free, so l kind of do what I like, which has resulted in increasing my love of lifting weights, because I'm freeeeeeeee
Program? I just hork around big weights. Big numbers:Big pp
👍👍👍
It's literally yours 😢😢
Did Bromley ditch his own 70's powerlifter AI program? No more updates on it lately.
Virtually all but the shittiest programs work if you put your back into it. And _no_ program works in perpetuity. So don't fall in love with 5 x 5.
What if I have no powerlifting and any kind of programming experience but I am at a nearly elite level of strength? I got pretty strong never doing a program but just sticking to few of my principles.
Could you share that please..
Like how many sets, reps and what weights to use for sbd strength??
What are your numbers?
@@_mishal____ As far as weight, reps, sets, rest time is concerned it was never a fixed number. It was what I felt like at that moment.

"elite level strength" but wont give any numbers lmao.

But im doing bullmastif 😢
Got a say U look beter now
