Ohk, i hope u r fine and doing well

Do u mind me asking whats the purpose of a neurology? I thought it has something to do with nerves and stuff

Nice! I hope u hv a nice holiday:)

No, i started with 85% of 5RM for 5x3 which was very low for me, previously i was squatting 55kg 2x3 arnd and i started with 45kg, now i m stalling at 60kg, also i m sorry idk why i m switching up my units lol

Current Program - GZCLP (3/3.5 days per week (4 full body workouts))

Sets and reps - 5x3 on day 1, 3x10 on day 2

Weight - 50kgs, got up to 60kg but when i tried it today i failed lol, i thought i would rather focus on form first

Fatigue - Idk about which part ‘fatigues’ me the most hehe, but I always fail at the bottom part of the movement

-> Yes I do have other equipment, but i don’t primarily train for hypertrophy but rather health and movement (I used to be very fat lol) i do think muscles are cool lol don’t get me wrong, but I really do wanna keep free weights as the bread and butter

-> The program calls for 5kg increase in each session on squats (on one rep scheme independently), i do have 1kg ankle weights which i use for bench and OHP so i can use smaller increments

Edit : added missing info :)

Hmm it wasnt showing a preview in safari, it opens fine in app though

Fixed, mega is giving me problems lol Edit: it seems to hv been causing more problems :/

I hv started making good progress by changing up programs, ig my RPE was way too high (maybe volume as well) and i couldn’t leave enough gas to actually recover between sessions

Thanks to the above guy who recommended BFS, i was browsing and found ‘GZCLP’ which is a very similar program, but it gives u ur training max and percentages so that u dont push urself too hard and overtrain, i had to strip back a ton of weight though, but in 4 weeks i definitely hv been progressing, especially on squat on OHP, i had to strip a ton more weight on bench and dead though, i haven’t still reached back to the weight i was doing pre switch, but i definitely have been progressing as my reps on AMRAP have been staying pretty constant despite the weight going up, i hv gained some little size as well

So yeah too high of an rpe and volume (i m not doing many isolation movements either, just the vanilla program (3 exercises per session) + couple exercises to target some weak spots, or as a prehab (facepulls, upper chest flies etc)), ig i got too sucked on internets ‘high intensity, 1 RIR, 15sets a week’ bullshit

Thanks for asking, hv a beautiful day :)

Thanks for ur info, i do change up isolation exercises regularly tho, i dont think there are any replacements but for the main lifts

Thanks a lot for your info, i m currently considering changing the program, but i will keep what u said in mind :)

I dont think i m body dysmorphic, i just am super concerned about why am i not progressing on my lifts for so long
