Official Strength Debates

Low Rep Hypertrophy Sets Mechanical tension is the primary driver for hypertrophy So instead of 3x10 you would do 10x3 Compound exercises only not isolation Are you a believer?

@BardOfArt That’s a great shape

@StrengthDebates You are what you eat. You gotta cut out the Doritos. You shaped like one bro

Started my cut at 281 What should I cut to? 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

@Michael_Druggan @acekingspades 🫡

@acekingspades @StrengthDebates If you want to maintain at 12% cutting down to 10% first and letting yourself stabilize is a good strategy.

Emotions and training Use emotions for energy Never use emotions for decision-making

@StrengthDebates This is great akin to a pendlay row with English. I agree with his assertion , similar to raw benchers who get stuck in the middle of the lift, don't work with boards etc, work the power off your chest

@Pointer_Chaser Using a lot of leg drive, but yes both build upper back

@StrengthDebates Looks the same. How is it different? Either way, this develops the upper back.

Many people when they’re having trouble locking out their Deadlift think they need to get stronger at the top so they will look to do more rack pulls or block pulls etc I actually believe in the opposite you need to get stronger at the bottom Give this a listen 👇🏼

@Pointer_Chaser This isn’t a Pendlay Row it’s a Power Row

@StrengthDebates While it might you used to the feeling of driving hard off the floor, what the Pendlay Row primarily develops is the upper back, which enables you to pull your shoulders back, throughout a Deadlift and especially at the lockout. Halting Deadlifts work the bottom range.

This poor guy just can’t handle the truth. Someone just sent me this. We all know that he’s talking about me. To say that I am the dummy when he’s the guy who invented the power-off press? He’s done more to stiffen the spines of millions of athletes than just about anyone on the planet. There is no walking back his tragic mistake. Someone please tell him that weakness is a disease. Tell him from me that it’s time for him to be a man. Own up and take responsibility and hold himself accountable for the insidious harm that he has caused. To any of his defenders — you picked the wrong guy. Because he’s a coward who can’t handle the truth.

@ajmahler 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

@StrengthDebates I tried. Didn’t quit. Work to do.

“Most people quit” No Most people don’t even try

@DtccAudit Yes def same for bench good call

Couldn’t agree more and great for increasing your bench.

@DtccAudit 🫡

@StrengthDebates Got my attention and couldn’t agree more. Also great for improving the bench.

@AFistfulof45s 🫡

@StrengthDebates Gym attendant was admonishing me for this the other day. I don't really see the problem as long as you're not gassed out.

Squat and deadlift same day ✅ More days recovery between sessions ✅ Squats potentiate deadlifts with minimal fatigue My goto pairs 1️⃣ Front Squat/Deadlift 2️⃣ Back Squat/RDL 3️⃣ Safety Squat/Deficit Deadlift Full Article 👇🏼

@danedowneyjr I never tried it myself until I began my career in the performance world coaching Once I experienced it first hand I literally never changed back

@StrengthDebates Wow, I trust you, but that is hard to imagine for someone who has always split them. I def can’t imagine squatting better after deads, so the opposite is 🤯 I’m trying all the things you discuss so I’m def not hating. Just 🤯
