That'a exactly how I'd be if I didn't make the effort not to. Being motivated by years of snapped up Iliterallydon'tevenlift helps!

I don't find BS 5x5 particular great for bench or deadlifts but I usually get ridiculous gains on my squats which I love more than any other exercise. If I didn't enjoy a bit of variation I'd happily spend my life on Smolov though :D

It did indeed. Completely wrote off 531 as a concept when my leg fell off but I'm more open to it again now I've had time to reflect. I think I just misjudged how much the 5x10 rep scheme of the BBB variation would take out of me and tried pushing myself further than my body would allow. No reason why other variations would have the same effect and wouldn't provide gains though.

Have you tried smolov jr for bench? You've not benched frequently until you've done that! :eek::D

Yep, I don't know anyone that's had anything but negative experiences from BBB. I have no idea why he recommends it at all.

Cheers chaps.

Entire back and triceps are smoked today. Squats tomorrow? D:

FF, it's a date!

Steeds, don't think I've forgotten ;)

KD, keeping rests to around 90 seconds definitely makes it cardio!

Mr. Thingy, they're awesome, but horrible :D
 
What's the point in being 90kg if I don't get to make some arm quads?

tbf, I've always done bits of tricep isolation, it's just that now I'm following more of a structure. It will feel much more worthwhile when I can add in some heavy bench too - the neutral grip bar is good (nicer to shoulders too), but because of the handle placement you can't go as heavy.
