Re: Cole's Work
Oooh I just realized I gave unsolicited advice to you the other day. I was half joking lol. Of course programming is definitely individual so what I do might not work for you. I am noticing BBM boys are moving even further away from higher RPEs too. That’s basically what I do until I get greedy… like with my 500 lbs squat lol.
I definitely haven’t changed the formula in a long time. It’s a bit stale but it’s working albeit slowly. The only reason I was forced to reset my weights recently is due to long term cal restriction. (Ran myself down a lot).

ive noticed BBM is trending towards the more low fatigue model as well. sometimes less is more! i think the data driven strength guys are really leading the way with their model. i basically have now modified the strength III template to be less fatiguing by lowering loads by as much as 15% and 2 RPE levels. run the way they want you to, both of the strength templates i have will crush your nuts. when im done with BBM and my meet, im going to do DDS individaulized progamming.

--> Great week of training. Lower RPEs are working for me as I feel less pressure, more motivation, and the movement itself feels better. My shoulder and hips are still achy but I think by meet time they will be close to 100% if I keep the fatigue in check.

Re: Cole's Work
That is the toughest angle to see depth on a squat. I would guess that was deep enough, but hard to tell.

Re: Cole's Work
yea i agree especially with the camera kind of high like i have it. however, i still need to be pushing the knees out a little more to get more muscle involved. my squats have looked like shit lately.JohnHelton wrote: ↑Mon Jul 11, 2022 12:51 pm That is the toughest angle to see depth on a squat.
