yeah. i wanted to do one of the greyskull variations from this thread, did one workout yesterday, then decided that i gonna try dinosaur training. it simply draws me, which is how i choose what to train.

simple setup, like Monday - Weights A (dinosaur training principles), Wednesday - Bodyweight Friday - Weights 2 (dinosaur pr.), Sunday Bodyweight.

And train all of those hard, while also abbreviated, focusing on basics, as well as a few strongman moves, neck, grip to make it complete. seems very balanced and i get a nice combination of weights and calisthenics. also will check how heavy singles work for me, after training in other rep ranges for quite some time now.

decided to continue daily pushups and chins, brooks also advocates this in his dinosaur bodyweight training books so why not.

so, basically not too different from what i do now, just slightly different parameters and less volume and less supplementals.

How long have you been on greyskull?

I reconcile it by usually doing 8-12 week blocks if I have the urge.

yeah this time did 8 weeks for sure. even longer before the gyms closed. before that, for months.

But in general, do something for a while and if you get the urge switch to something else. Can't go wrong with 531 or dinosaur training.

yeah this is what makes sense to me, too. since its always about basics, bench, deadlift, press, squat, chins etc. in any good system, i feel continuing to do them within a different system (like more or less volume, different weekly sets etc.) should be ok since i still focus on getting stronger with those, always

ok thanks makes sense. i assumed it would be a good idea to do all of this concurrently, like adding isometric micro-workouts.

yesterday i found out that the gym i train at does not have weights that are calibrated (hope this is the right english term). so, weights that are supposed to be 20 kg sometimes are 19.1, sometimes 19.7 etc.

is it still a good idea to use micro loading? because obviously, with this kind of weights, any kind of systematic progression (with or without micro loading) is more like gambling. other progressions like reverse pyramid or double progression should work better in this situation, right?

or better to just keep going and know that there may be some variance yet that it is not too important ,and not get hung up on this?

any experiences, and is this even important?

Hi and thanks for this awesome thread, almost made it to page 50. i am doing GSLP since some time. now i want to check to powerbuilding variation with rest-pause-sets that is along the lines of doggcrap (even though i like it better to rotate 2 exercises than 3).

i just wonder if i still can do high frequency method pushups and chin-ups? as far as i know, this is not mentioned in the books.

also, i plan to continue doing some calisthenics on 2 off days, mostly skill work and static holds. any experiences if mixing this with rest-pause is doomed from the beginning and i am spreading myself to thin?
