777, how long can I realistically progress? Haven’t hit a plateau in 6 weeks thus far. Is it possible to do it for 12?

That would have me at (all 5 rep working weights):

Bench: 95 to 145
Press: 60 to 105
Deadlift: 95 to 205 (assuming I hit 10 reps every time as I have done thus far)
Squat: 95 to 240

Am I just getting stronger? This feels weird

Honestly so long as you are eating 300g protein you could go for 24 weeks without a reset.

As far as how long you can progress using the resets and rotating lifts out...usually for years just using intensity techniques as I laid out. Usually 2-3 years

When you talk about adding volume as I have laid out here and using double progression, realistically another 2 years.

But at some point you will have to move to weekly progression instead of every session. From there bi weekly and then monthly to a certain extent.

Or you move like most greyskull trainee's do and move to one max set then you move to an dependent rest pause methods for a while. Then move to rest pause and other intensity techniques.

I'll out it this way, there are less than 5 on this board that couldn't get more out of the greyskull lp. Go look at the weights deafjam is putting up using the methods. I personally will be elite in the 198 weight class according to the starting strength charts by the end of the year or damn close to it in every lift but the deadlift and clean. I am already advanced in pretty much every lift mainly using the greyskull methods or methods similar.

5/3/1, gzcl, DC training, true conjugate, reverse pyramid and greyskull are the only systems I feel like you can continue to make progress on for years. Madcow is pretty awesome too.
