Why? The weak link in the chain (your arms) will fail long before your lats have done enough work....it doesnt matter how you perform the compound lifts this WILL happen, your arms are a much smaller weaker muscle group.
You will never maximize your lat growth with compound lifts.

Terrible Bench Press Plateau
I've been weightlifting seriously for about 5 years, i train 5-6 times a week, switching between compound and isolation exercises, etc. I tend to respond well to training and at 5'10 weigh around 190lb of good solid and lean muscle. However, my chest is bloody awful! Lol! I'm barrel chested and for as long as i can recall i've NEVER been able to push past 70kgs (154lbs) for 8 reps. This is appalling in my opinion, considering how all my other exercises are proportionally much heavier and...

Can you guys help explain something to me?
Sorry if this is in the wrong area but since you guys do this for a living you can probably help me the most make sense of this. What are the advantages of linear progression vs maximal strength periodization? I understand how linear progression is as simple as adding weight each time you lift either from work out to work out or weekly. My question is programs that are designed for maximal strength and the percentages used. For example week 1 3x8 70%, week 2 3x6 80%, week 3 3x3 90%, week 4...

Extreme Bulk
I will be doing an 'extreme' bulk In January. I will train twice a day for seven-days and I will be eating an excessive amount of natural and clean food.
I'm currently eating two meals per day and fasting so the shock to my body will be huge.
I aim to gain over twenty-pounds in seven-days. Much of weight will be water and glycogen but I hope to gain five-pounds of solid muscle.

Complete P90x & Lose 20lbs
My goal is to complete a full cycle of P90x. I'm officially beginning it today, after indulging and gaining some weight over the holidays, on top of the weight I already wanted to lose. Overall, I'm looking to lose just under 20lbs over the course of the program. I'll post my progress each week.

Long term 6 pack
My long term goal is to maintain a strong, solid and sculpted mid-section (6 pack).
I have been rowing about 5700-6000 meters every 2 days for 2 weeks at the gym and am seeing results already in terms of fat loss and definition.
Unfortunately this weekend I went away and have slipped but, I aim to achieve and maintain a good stomach.
Any tips on maintenance once I'm there?

What Are your Goals?
I plan to do a mega bulk in January, as I mentioned in the other thread. My goal in the mean time is to stay healthy and maintain or improve my level of leanness, I'm currently in single digits so I'd be satisfied with just maintaining at this point.

Latest short term goal?
What is the last short term goal that you successfully achieved?
I personally achieved mine last week.
I set a goal beforehand that I wanted to lose a few pounds and I finally did it with no cheating on my healthy lifestyle. I usually have a big sweet tooth but I am so glad that I am getting better at self control so this is my personal achievement.
I would love to hear yours!

Hi fellow meatheads,
Thought I'd take this opportunity to let you get to know me.
I've been a top class BB fro the last 15 years and trainer to elite atheletes of all sorts. Primarily bodybuilders but also done some strength and martial arts training for mercenaries and various types of active protective services.
I train guys and girls, but obviously prefer getting behind my girls

I always say that it takes a lot of courage, patience and insight to become a personal trainer in the social media era. As you will all know, there is a lot to learn in terms of anatomy, nutrition, training and exercise, but in order to put your knowledge into practice, you must also learn about people.
