Crap. I thought this was gonna be about excersises that I could have my assistant do.

Shakeweights and progressively overloading the squat plug.
Digging the Mameluke Sword behind you, sir.
Don't fret the crap stick with the compound exercises 👍
Paused reps help every lift. Also seen success with snatch grip deadlifts and kettlebell swings. DB work is great for presses, along with dips and full ROM tricep extensions.
Doing a Pause Squat with Compensatory Acceleration Training (CAT) has immensely helped my Squat.
Very informative video 🎉
The only assistance exer exercises that I do are rows, chinups, and bi/tri once in a while. Other then that I stick to the main 4. I am one of those high bar squatters LOL 😂 I have very tight shoulders and it took a lot of pain just to get to the high bar position, so it's that or nothing. If I could do low bar I would.
How many times a week do you do each of the big four?
I started doing weighted chin-ups three sets of five on Mondays and Friday only add 2.5 pounds per workout Started at 5 pounds I’m up to 20 I’m excited to see how far I can take it
Chins daily 3 sets of 5
Am first
😢
Do you think it's possible for me to deadlift 500 lbs in about 2 years for my 50th bday,? Not sure of current one rep max but I did 275 for 8 last work out.
Hire him as your coach
Depends have you just started lifting or have you been training it for a while already? You can do 500 in 3 to 5 for sure. Start pulling heavy 1x5 1 time a week with a back off deadlift such as SLDL for 3x5 if you are intermediate. If not do starting strength
It’s hard to get to elite status (for your age) in only 2 years. You would need everything working for you (high-end coaching, no injuries, heavy body weight, great genetics, diet, sleep, etc).
i don't have much of any of that. Lol
@griffin7274 I've lifted weights on and off since I was 14 but I never went heavy. I am only restarting now after a couple year planet fitness type life. Watching as many vids as I can and doing linear progression 3x5 but with last set amrap
How about dominant love making? I had great results there. It's like pushing a prowler.
Does your boyfriend enjoy it?
@@jerrythomas4457 I have a husband, thank you. And I'm pregnant. So there are more than two of us.
I'm 49. I tried SS NLP early this year, and I stopped after 6 weeks due to excessive fatigue. Squatting 3 times per week is too much for me, Deadlifting is too much for me. Yes I can do it, but the remainder of my day (I train early) and the next day are miserable, shattered tired. I eat well, sleep as good as I can, and of course have employment and kids. I now train close to a type of High Intensity body building style: squat once per week 3 sets only, no deadlifts, heavy bench once per week 3 sets, same for every body part, heavy as I can, lift to failure, train 3 days per week, and I'm getting stronger and bigger with manageable fatigue.
Did you had a coach?
Kinda a 🐈 aren't you. Pretty sure you started to high. Or you just wanna have a excuse for your failures or a excuse to quit.
@timi3630 No. I train in my shed at 6am before work.
@@brendanmarsh4523 my coach help me programme a schedule that would work for me. They are worth it. You can email ss and Stef will come back to you with option depending on what you want and your budget.
