Hey man. Wanted to say thanks again for introducing PPSA to the board, I’ve been his programs since and love them. Question, found out Friday that I have a 5mm excursion in my left meniscus and most likely a tear; did this playing golf of all things. I’m currently doing summer stacked and was hoping to get your input on subbing deads with chins as I can’t pull from the floor without my knee screaming. Thanks again

You don’t have a lot of processing power; this post is exhibit one

Thank you

In Greyskull fashion, I’m going to rotate my main lifts to establish some new movement patterns, rest some aching parts

30* incline bench for bench
SSB squats for traditional barbell squat
Hex bar or rack pulls for deads

Thoughts? I know I’ll most likely need to lower my Tm’s for ssb and incline

Yes, it's hard af. It's main focus seems to be to make you vomit

Oh, I know. I get tired of hearing about all these boogeymen in nutrition.

That study doesn’t support the headline.

Like LSU said, don’t worry about the weight on db lats. Make them slow and make them sizzle.

Good to see some 5/3/1 love, I’d love to hear more about beefcake. I joined Jim’s personal forum and it’s a lot of great info. I’ll have to search for it there.

I’m finishing the first prep cycle on kryptiia. Upper body, glutes and quads are popping from all the dips and db squats. Can’t wait to see the results when we start pushing assistance. Also loving the quick training times, we have been fable to push through in 30 or so minutes using a 80% training max.

Today was squats, third week-

Agile 8

10-15 med ball slams

5 reps @ 135, 185, 225, 245, 280, 315
5x5 @ 245

Weighted dips - 25lbs
Chins - bw

Banging my way through Krypteria now, but trying to block out the next 6-12 months for when we are finished. In Forever, when assistance reps are assigned, is that a total rep count for the week?

Thanks
