Back into good straight GSLP, doing the vanilla version with couple isolations and lifts keep going up week after week. Guess i am still a newbie.

All are going great except the squat, which for my life cant get into high reps (more than 11) without utterly exhausting myself. What gives?

Right now at 1/1.5/1.5/2.5 plates for five. But squat keeps stubbornly low and when i train it i dont fail due my quads, but due general fatigue.

Do i need more cardio?

Just wanted to say I am thankful for being part of this thread; delayed, i know XD

Just got my first clean legit 9 reps of chinups, when I met you late last year I wasn't able to do a proper bench 45lbs for my life.

You are a great guy lsu777, thanks for all your hard work.

Do you still give access to the greyskull book? I clicked some of the links and it says it’s deleted. No big deal if not, was just going to use it to follow along.

I’m trying to get back into this. I started right before Covid and was having some success.

My biggest issue right now is

A) figuring how many plug in exercises to do(also how many total exercises to do in a session)
B) what plug ins to use.

I want to mix it up so it doesn’t get boring or repetitive, but also want to work the correct areas on the correct days.

It’s been a minute to say the least, but time to get back to it

I had to request access, which I did. Whenever you can approve, I appreciate it.

Separate note
If I want to plug in cable flies and upright cable flies into my chest day, would I do it at the rep range of 10-12 x 2 sets? Or is it the 5x1,5x1,5x1+?

Same thing with decline bench. Just trying to figure out what to plug in and how

10-12 for 2 but if you are doing an LP do you really think its a good use of recovery ability to hit cable flyes?

this is a main lift and would go in place of bench and be run

I honestly have no idea. I have no idea what to plug in. I like the big, heavy lifts of this. I'm doing the aesthetics version you posted.

I would just stick to the aesthetic template as written and focus on progressing the body weight homework

I'm thinking about running the LCI program starting this week and running through mid summer or so.

I had a question: do you still do your bodyweight homework while doing LCI, or would the bodyweight Wednedays suffice for this?

either way works, what you dont want to do is get beat up. but it absolutely can help.

so i would try it and if the overall caloric deficit is getting to you, back off some.

overall the 360 min of walking(fasted if possible) is more important.
