Bad knee crew. Havent squatted more than 2 plates in years. Volume can be challenging as hell tho. Have you tried to run a 10 x 10 volume? **** is brutal.

One a different note, there's another reason why I enjoy volume training: while training to increase max can lead to issues with egolifting and subsequent damage to your body, volume training is an exercise is patience and mental fortitude. It really is like a form of meditation to be at that moment of absolute exhaustion and finding with every last bit of everything you got to squeeze out another one.

You've never lifted heavy, right OP? Don't need pic.

I squatted 275x18 full depth, recently... my legs look like the legs of someone who's never lifted before. and urs are on that bodybuilder time. genetics wins every time.

I have lifted heavy i told you i done 160kg but progress is alot slower, im just letting you know from my experience.Genetics is an excuse, i honestly do not have the best genetics but alot of people use that on me. i really dont

This thread makes me giggle.

Miscers always say "go heavy" for everything otherwise you can't build chit as a natural and yet here we are with proof of high rep range and now everyone is saying "ya fukc lifting for your ego, I always go light and build muscle better that way!"

huehuehue u guys funny/

Quads and hammies respond better to high volume training for growth. Bro science 101 misc

welcome to the thread

So you gonna prove to me lifting light weight builds physique when you lifted heavy previously to build physique? Make sense.

You don't grow in the gym, you get weaker in the gym, but you create the demand to grow in the gym. You grow by refueling, rest, etc. You can create that demand a variety of ways, light weight is one of them, agree. Most successful aesteics workout schedule I've ever done is lifting moderately heavy during day, then going back at night and repeating all your lifts much lighter weight on high reps. You should only do this when you're <8-10% body fat. It is one of the most effective ways to gain muscle and burn fat. I've told many of my friends my secrets to my success, but no one has the balls to follow through.

u have better genetics than me is all im saying. when you're doing like 50-75 lbs lighter for less reps, and getting better results... yeah. it's ok im still strong and have some results, etc. but it sucks obviously.

I actually stopped training for roughly 6 months, i have a pic of me in january this year on my phone and i will take one tomorrow after i train to show you my results of this style of training.
I am not preaching i am just showing my results from this different training method, which works really well.

injured my hip somehow when cutting so once I bulk gonna do one heavy day and one hypertrophy day

i do both after the heavy set i do a lighter weight for 15 or 20

The point i was trying to make was you dont get doms and dont have to do heavy squats. its a win win

I don't do "powerlifting style" training at all.

Rarely do sets lower than 8 reps for anything, love higher reps too (up to 32-48 sometimes).

This

yep, this is true. my legs looked better but no cool points for doing body weight squats.
