[@avatar9794]

Frankly? I am weaker than you, so my advices maybe are not so valid as others but I try help. You said, that you have heart a lot about bigger risk of injury after 40. Therefore you fear it. I say more warm up sets and your body will have less injury potentail than younger. What I mean warm up sets? I mean sets with 1 or 2 reps in the range of 40-70% of your record. At 40% your body (especially nervous system). What I know 7-10 sets is apropriate. What concerns the main training if 455 is your pinnacle it is very strenous to do it all and all again. I mean when you train for strength you should have some reserve. Maybe you should go off the weight and start form 400 adding 5,5 pound per session. Moreover, you should stop doing that exercise and replace it by front squat or another. It helps to make your body more responsive to your main movement. I dont know how much your adductors and abductors are. It is very important especially in the intermidiate phase of squat. Finally, there is sich thing as structial balance by Cherles Poliquin and another guys (but by him is the most popular, probably). For exemaple the proportion between your front squat and back squat (ass to grass, what I know) is ver important. The streght of hamstrings to quad is crucial (not only for strenght but also for injury prevention). I hope that I helped and not made you sleepy ;) .

[@avatar9794]

​@@ggrthemostgodless8713In the terms od ohp I amstronger than you. My personal best is 210 (95kg). My the best routine is 3x1, 3x2, 3x3; 2 minutes of breaks between sets. Ones I did with the weight of 90-100% of my max than I drop the weight about 5 kg on 2s, and then 5 on 3s. It is very streounes routine escpecialy on your nervous system so do not overdo it. I do not know whether it helps you but what I have observed is that when you want progress in shoulder press you need to with weight to 90% or above. Just even for one set. And as I said in squat statement your structure balance is very important. Biceps, rotator cuff. You should have them strong enough to balance the weight. 210 is for me know my ceiling beacuse I have problem with one of my stabilizers in rotator cuff (I dont know the name of muscle (I am not native speaker) but it is above shoulder blade) in my right arm. First you have to have strong basic than progress.

[@MajorPineapple12]

for me personally, increasing frequency to 3x a week, but decreasing the overall sets of chest i hit. I fell into a trap of having volume for the sake of volume, and stalled out around 305lbs. I now am around 330-335 max, and bench 10-12 sets a week maximum, and the only chest accessory i really hit is cables flies since it doesnt mess up my recovery.

Later beginner/intermediate. Don’t think you’d push your squat much further doing something like starting strength with those numbers.

Hmm. Do I qualify to skip it, lol. When I was training them more heavily, I used to work up to 455 for 5 reps at a bodyweight of about 165 to 170.

I have to give a shoutout to the ex-gf for recommending this channel. Big helpful tips for my squat.

[@rogeliomendez9135]

I got to 280, then freaked out how heavy it felt. 😢

Hit 500@170 in my 20's. I'm 50 now and trying to come back. Anderson squats for 5 progressive singles after a traditional 5×5 got me there. Currently trying the Hepburn method and having great results

@OneSillyWanker yep Doug Hepburn. A brutal workout but it's working well

14:09 What exactly did he say THERE?? he speeded his talk a lot right there, and I caught "hips" wider, hingey (?), [mumbles]... this is the slow descent I do, that's why I care, and he spoke faster at this particular point The auto captions do not say it.

"That's generally gonna be people that are a bit wider, a lot more hip engagement, you get a lot more control"

[@ggrthemostgodless8713]

@@elizabethciortuz8715 Thanks... he tends to JOIN words at some points, ""hipswideralotmoreengagement...control"" It is great info but if he would just keep the same pace and enunciation more evenly. Thanks a lot.

Wow,to think they gave Jeff Cavelier hella sh*t for saying tense up and brace for squats.Here Alexander says the same thing.

[@dundundata7603]

Speaking of squats, where's the 100 rep max video for hitting 100k subs?

[@guerilla.dilemma]

Mr Bromley I'm sorry, but I can't watch this. I'll see you next video

[@williammccusker4288]

I’ve only hit 495 for 2 so I guess I qualify
