>linear progression still occurring with no signs of slowing down
Give me 1 good reason why I should train for strength besides “muh hypertrophy”. I think bodybuilding is gay as frick, and I would rather be lean and strong.

        Seriously now, if you don't care for bodybuilding then don't do it.
        Just train for strength if that's what you like, it's just a different persuit
        I'm the opposite, I want to be as big as possible muscle-wise and don't care much for strength (strength is cool ofc but I care about aesthetics more)

          Aight cool mang. I suppose people have different goals in mind. I do think powerlifting is gay though, even though I train for strength.

    Honestly they only thing to consider is the potential injuries from training for strength (once you're actually strong) are worse that those from training hyperthrophy routines. But if you're aware of that, and think its worth the risks, then there's not good reason not to.

      Unfortunately I don’t know. I saved it when some other guy posted it on IST.

      Eventually your linear progression will slow, and the accumulated fatigue will catch up and you’ll start stalling out.

      Then you can deload and ramp back up.

      You can also widen the base of your strength pyramid by gaining mass, which is more efficient with higher reps/sets.

      Unless you want to compete, do what you enjoy and is good for your body.

      Sounds good. I’ll take my linear progression as far as it will go, and then figure it out from there.

        The other anon gave you great advice.

        Always have a goal weight to work toward in your favored lift(s).

        Once you reach that goal weight, deload and do lighter weight for volume for a bit. You will only lose a bit of strength.

        Set a new goal weight and start the process all over again. You'll be strong as frick in no time. Just try to get good sleep and eat well.

          I sleep good and eat plenty of meat. I do drink a lot of alcohol though. I assume it hasn’t affected my progress because I’m young (23) and I’m not strong yet.

    The problem with doing doubles and singles all the time is you're prone to injury, assuming you're lifting at weights where a double/single is all you can do

      I’m not lifting heavy enough to injure myself. For example, I bench 190 for a single.
