post body (you won't)
>your turn
Why would he need to? His statement is correct
Yeah. I thank Ivan the most, he spent 3 years+ squatting and deadlifting everyday, based on all the shit IST talks about S's and D's he should be fricking jacked because of 'muh heavy compound hormone release"
Turns out its all bullshit.
You know whats the reality? To look good? Its to train with high volume, bro-style, and just eat some protein powder and veggies, and some meats, and then just starve yourself, that way your body just gets protein/micro-nutrients, and you'll transform into a lean muscular bro with that kind of method, it actually works. No autistic strength training or autistic calorie counting involved.
High volume bro training + eat clean = Look good.
Funny how the simple method the bros always told us to do was actually what works. Then all these science nerd fricks entered the space and tried telling the bros they were wrong and that you had to count your macros and powerlift to look good LOL
To be honest a lot of it is that powershitters just hate cutting because they might lose one microgram of lean mass so they fatcope at 25% BF all the time. they'd look better if they actually cut but a lot of them are people who would be obese normally and coped by lifting. thats why powershitters always say shit like EAT MORE and eat like 4000 cals a day
>they hated him because he spoke the truth
There is more nuance to it then that..... but yeah.
Many of us fell into the powercoper trap. Some made it, many just got fat or saw strength go up.
My priorities are unironically isolations and body parts. Not strength, that's a byproduct of progressive overload.
You need to hit your posterior chain and erectors somehow and squats and deadlifts are the best bang for your buck. In a hypertrophy context RDLs and highbar squats are probably the best combo but you're leaving easy gains on the table if you don't include them in your routine. A balanced routine is key. Someone that squats and deadlifts heavy in a reasonable rep range (5+) and does the proper isolation work in higher rep ranges will look better than someone that just bros it out.
>You need to hit your posterior chain and erectors somehow
No you don't.
>you don't need to train half your body
ok
Not if you wanna look good. No brosplits give a shit about that dumb powershitter crap. It's 100% a waste of time. Just doing some pullups/ latpulls downs and some cable rows is all you need for your back.
Focus on the muscles that matter
Shoulders
Chest
Bis
Tris
Abs
If you feel like it
Legs
Back
And stay LEAN.
Your physique is gonna look unbalanced and shit if you don't have proportional spinal erectors, glutes and hamstrings.
>No brosplits give a shit about that dumb powershitter crap.
Every good brosplit has some form of hip hinge (RDL, conventional deadlifts) and some form of squat.
>Deadlifts
Enjoy looking like a lego block.
>Squats
Enjoy herniated disks
Legs press and leg curls is plenty. Add in some lunges if you want
Even women are able to do squats and deadlift lmao. You're more incompetent than a woman.
Imagine doing lifts that a woman does.
>Enjoy looking like a lego block.
You are a homosexual you know that right?
I got a wicked V taper all thanks to avoiding deads.
You know how to get a wicked v-taper? dont be fat and do pullups and rows.
Deadlifts dont make you get a block body, being fat and not doing pullups does that
I want it all and enjoy rdl's. My v-taper will never be amazing since I have a short torso+wide hips but I can try by doing my rows and pull-ups.
hmmm always wanted to try rings. Heard they are great for deficit push ups and flys too.
Im a brosplitter and my first lift on my leg day is Romanian Deadlifts. They def give the best hypertrophy for the "backside" of your body.
I do them like a bodybuilding exercise, not like a powertrooner
Back is extremely important for aesthetics
I do RDLs and Leg Press, no more Conventional Deadlifts or Back Squats.
RDL's and Leg Press do everything you need for the glutes, hamstrings, quads & lower back/posterior chain
I mean, if you're only lifting for girls, then no. They don't give a shit about your spinal erectors or your hamstrings.
>but you're leaving easy gains on the table
homie what the FRICK does that even mean?
Newbie here. Should I just do brosplit or PPLx as a beginner? I don't wanna get into the powerlifter territory with high injury chance exercises such as deadlift, squat, ohp til I have more experience.
ppl
Brosplit is low on frequency so it's really best for enhanced lifters or lifters who can push crazy hard so they can make tons of gains and use the rest time.
PPL you hit the same muscles twice a week.
Nothing wrong with deadlifts, squats, and ohp but you really need to study and start light when you do them. Getting injuries suck.
This. Bros know that all you need to look good are arms, delts and chest + being lean. Now, I like lifting heavy, but I am under no delusion that my legs are getting me laid. I know it's my 18 inch arms and my barrel chest.
>No autistic strength training or autistic calorie counting involved
I disagree on the calorie counting part. If you want to get shredded calorie counting removes all the guess work with your diet. I do think obsessing over macros if you already eat clean is pointless though.
>You know whats the reality? To look good?
>eat some protein powder
He fell for the pharma israelite, keeeek
100% this
Most dudes' biggest mistake is taking protein supplements
Just make sure everything you eat has meat in it and then your body can actually use all the protein and you won't overdo it
0.8g/lb of lean mass is stupid easy to hit. You can only handle more than that if you're on roids and if overdo it on roofs, you can trash your livers
>then your body can actually use all the protein
Whey has a higher bio availability then meat.
You have to do *some* upper body volume
If he would have hit chest+back twice a week at decent volume he would likely be very impressive
Most powerful lifters do very few working reps at heavy weight which is great for building CNS and bodybuilding potential, but you do actually have to hit the glamor muscles at least once a week at volume
Ivan has a 3plate bench...
That's honestly trash for someone lifting daily for 3 years straight at 220lbs BW.
Based on how 120kg moves for him, he ain't benching 315lbs easily.
3plates is not trash lmao. 90% of gym rats cannot bench 315 clean.
Literacy isn't your strong suit.
I have a bachelor's in English lmao. You're just fricking moronic. Most men will not reach a 3plate bench press after 3 years of lifting.
If you strength train daily for three years and can't bench 315 at 220 you are incredibly weak at that movement.
Most men is irrelevant. I'm referring to men over 200 pounds.
Pity your degree is worthless because even with it you still can't fricking read.
You don't even fricking lift, do you? Strength training daily is moronic and one of the reasons Ivan looks like crap. He's doing a program for enhanced Olympic weightlifters, paid a salary by the government to just eat, sleep and lift, while being natty and wagecucking.
And weight is irrelevant when most of his mass in his lower body anyway. Most gym rats over 200lbs CANNOT bench 3 plates, so basically frick off, dyel.
Holy shit, you're an actual idiot.
Telling me things I already know as if I don't know them.
No shit his program is moronic, that's why his lifts are trash.
>Most gym rats over 200lbs CANNNNNNOT bench 3 plates
No shit, most gym rats are morons with terrible form and garbage programs, duh.
Most of them also don't lift for 3 years straight.
>Most of them also don't lift for 3 years straight.
Except all the ones that do? How much do you bench? Serious question. My all time best is 418 lbs after 16 years of lifting. I have seen only a handful of dudes bench 3plates+ in all that time and I train in gyms with tonnes of people, including competing powerlifters.
370
Then you should know better.
To look impressive at all as a natty (not just lean), you have to lift heavy AT VOLUME AT FREQUENCY
And also focus on trying to get stronger even after you've moved out of SS and into a builder program
T. 6'4 3+/4/5+, max BBing stats 274lbs@8% bf
Captcha: DNR lmaooo
>274 8%
I know this is bait but please post body
Do you have a body pic to prove your point?
From my experience the ones just doing brosplits natty look like shit and are weak they only have slight abs which arent visible since theyre small.
the ones that do powershitting natty at least are strong but they still look bad.
only the roiders look impressive
I stopped squatting and deadlifting like 2 years ago because I hurt my back at work. I've been doing bulgarian split squat and hip thrusts, along with other accessories, and my legs are way bugger than when I was squatting/deadlifting.
If you lifted you would know doing it every day isn't efficient.
Nah, doing it everyday the way he does it isn't efficient.
You can absolutely lift daily, even squat daily, but maxing out daily is where it gets dumb.
volume > intensity
lard asses aren't people
You know whats the reality? To look good? Its to train with high volume, bro-style, and just eat some protein powder and veggies, and some meats, and then just starve yourself, that way your body just gets protein/micro-nutrients, and you'll transform into a lean muscular bro with that kind of method, it actually works.
This is truth.
>Do SS or 5 rep range powershitter strength routine for 3 years
>Strong AF but look like shit
>Quit
>Come back now 5 years later
>Been doing a 12-15 rep range brosplit for 6 month
>Look better than when I lifted hard for 3 years
DO NOT FALL FOR THE DEADS AND SQUATS BAIT. YOU DONT NEED TO EVER DO THIS. YOU WILL GET ENOUGH STRENGTH FROM DOING BROSPLIT
>and then just starve yourself
Or just do cardio every day.
Doing some arnold split. Feel stronger than I ever did on SL 5x5 and look better after 3 weeks.
>Caption was HRT DYH lole
moron overtrained
I was a powershitter, hitting 210kg DL with slow decent and 200kg Squat no belt, I got strong and had great hamstring and lower back gains for a year. Now I’ve totally excluded compounds except for light bench work.
What do I do now? Rings. They beat the crap out of me since I weight 115kg at 194cm but holy shit the upper body gains are insane. My chest is popping like never before with ring dips and my traps are holding onto me like someone is trying to pull me apart on ring pull-ups.
Take the Ring pill bros or at least try it out for a month. Life is finally good.
So what do you do for lower body now?
I do ATG pause Squats for knee recovery on rest days. Only 100kg 5x1. I’ve bought enough jeans that my ass can’t fit anymore.
All the anti-squatting and anti-deadlifting shilling on nuIST reinforces my resolve to continue squatting and deadlifting
Im not anti-squat/deadlift
Im anti making squats/deadlits the core of your routine
They should be treated as any other lift, theres no reason to be autistically obsessed with them, they dont do anything special or unique
>they dont do anything special or unique
They exercise half of your entire body at once. What other lifts do that?
Dips and Pull-ups are the "Squat and deadlift of the upper body" but do you see me autismoing out over those 2 lifts? no... I do them all anyway, but im not here sperging out about them, they're just a lift.
Ok, well you're one poster. There are definitely a shitload of posters on this board right now who are trying to convince people not to squat or deadlift at all
I am anti big-3 only programs. Isolations are as important as compounds and can be more important if you can't even use a muscle properly.
At least now I know and enjoy training again.
Oh, and frick minimalism.
Oh no you're making me seethe by breaking your spine and knees for no gains oh noooooo
I appreciate guys like this. There's another dude that's been benching every day for like a year and also looks like shit.
Barbells are SHIT.
BIG DOG HERE,
THIS IS AROUND 3 YEARS,
JUST SQUATTING 2-3 A WEEK,
NO SPLIT SQUATS,
NO MACHINES,
NO RUNNING,
NO PUMP,
THE TWINK FEARS THE POWERLIFTER
powertrooner on gear
YOU DONT REALLY BELIEVE WHAT YOU JUST TYPED GUY
Is this supposed to be impressive?
YOU CAN GET BIG LEGS SQUATTING AS A NATURAL
BEEN A WHILE YES,
LIFE IS GRAND,
HAPPY NEW HEAR MY GUY
What's going on BIG DOG? It's been a lil since I saw ya on here. Hope everything is going good. Happy new year.
If you fricking morons don't combine compounds with isolation you deserve nothing but failure.
HE DOES IT FOR THE REDDIT PATREON MONEY AND 1000 VIDEOS EARNING AD BUCKS
I squat once every couple of months at most, guess I'm missing out on those high frequency gainz that reddit talks about
jesus that looks so bad, fricking cronenberg tumor legs
