    I would buy neither. 41 inches inside width is too narrow for bench press and uncomfortable for squats. This is based on someone with an elbow span of 41 inches.

    (Yes) but not recommend for beginner. You will fine it depletes glycogen levels and a person may feel nauseous. I squat and deadlift same day. I get better leg conditioning. If someone was power lifting. A competitor would have to squat and deadlift same day in a meet. Bodybuilding you could squat and deadlift on same day or different days. One can build tree trunk legs without deadlifts or squats if a person had lower back injuries. The most important thing is to use proper form first strength will follow until you reach your full potential. Keep pumping iron.

I am selling my selectorized titan lat pull down and titan foldable 3x3 rack to get pr5000 with selectorized lat pull down attachment. I have many titan x-3 rack attachments that I would like keep (5/8") however I would have to buy thoese adapters to make my 5/8" to 1" I think it will be cheaper than buying them again for the pr5000.

    I'm trying to decide between these roller roller J-hooks and the Titan Sandwhich J-hooks. Curious if you have any opinions one way or another? I like the roller idea, however I also like the idea of the sandwhich hook having plastic on the front so my bar doesn't hit the lip. Curious what your thoughts are?

  • @WynnStrength
    @WynnStrength Жыл бұрын

    When I first got the roller hooks, because that front lip is so high, I did end up banging the barbell every so often the first few months of using them. I've ended up just setting them down 1 notch for every lift and I haven't hit them since. I do like the roller option, but it's really most useful for the bench press, since you're stuck with the bench position. Every other movement (squat, press, row) you could just move your feet to center yourself... The roller is definitely a nice feature to have, but more a luxury than necessity. I guess if you do know someone with a 3D printer, you could print a plastic cap, or wrap a bunch of duct tape too? One more factor to consider, would be your squat hand placement, I believe the sandwich hooks are very slightly narrower than the rollers or standard J hooks, which may help you reduce finger bumps when racking the barbell? Hope that helps

    Maybe I'm judging things from the skewed perspective of an outlier, but I now think programs with fixed amounts of volume don't make any sense. It's such a critical variable and one that is highly lifter dependent. Maybe most people are sufficiently bunched up together on the bell curve of volume needs that it doesn't really matter but for me most off the shelf programs will literally do nothing for me (beyond some strength gains in any novel movement the program happens to contain). The BBM novice program has something like 6 or maybe 8 sets of biceps curls per week. I needed more like 12, and that was just starting. Two years later I do 24 sets. I digress...

    I honestly don't understand how BBM is still selling templates when juggernaut AI is almost cheaper/wk assuming you aren't reusing the same template a bunch of times (something they tell you not to do). Same with every other "club" program which are all just basically templates for the same price or more than Juggernaut AI.

  • @WynnStrength
    @WynnStrength Жыл бұрын

    This is a great point, that I don't think gets considered enough in purchasing decisions. I guess I can't argue against your thesis, since I agree. I think it might be worth adding a little bit of depth? I think static programs like these fill a void for somebody's training, I personally noticed that going from no structure to a structured program helps with progression, but that's not saying much, coz I'm sure a $10 program would have the same effect. Maybe it's because I'm already interested in programming? But I tend to tweak off the shelf programs to my own needs and preferences, but I would hope that people doing a static program like this, would try to change some things, at least the second time around to suit their personal training needs. I haven't looked into Juggernaut AI, but after looking at it, it looks pretty awesome! It looks like a great choice for those people that can't afford one-on-one training , whilst till being able to tailor the program as your own body responds to the programs. But, being cheap, I tend to re-use programs with a lot of changes, to bring down the $/workout... but at what point am I no longer performing the 'original template'?

  • @xTruncz

    Hey buddy, nice video. I want to just focus on balance. Where do you think the balance lies in terms of overall training, on the scale from extreme strength to extreme endurance? Is it in the middle of hypertophy range, or elsewhere? I currently planning on doing mostly hypertrophy with small amounts of strength and ebdurancw and also cardio. Thanks

  • @WynnStrength
    @WynnStrength Жыл бұрын

    I think in terms of balance. I think spending most of the year in the 4-8 rep range is going to strike that nice middle ground. Maybe sprinkle in a couple of weeks of endurance training 15+ reps. Or even CrossFit style metcon training at the start of every season change. Aside from competing and wanting to. I don’t think there’s any inherent benefits from working on one rep max strength that would make that superior to other forms of training. I personally prefer to structure my year into training blocks so I can spend 12-16 weeks focused on one goal - hypertrophy or strength. Hope that helps! Appreciate the support!

    @@WynnStrength Thanks a lot for the presentation of the program. If you don't mind me asking, when you say that a typical workout take 75-90 minutes and up to 2 hours, is it only the resistance training workout or do you had it the GPP and/or the arm workout. In other words is it : Resistance training workout : broad range from 75 to 120 min OR Resistance training + GPP/arm : broad range from 75 to 120 min I take the liberty to ask cause in your videos @1:52 and after, the presentation says that the resistance training might only take 45min and up to 70min maximum which seems to contradict the length of the workout you give here. Sorry to bother you with this, it is just that I feel that a 45min workout with only 3 exercices seems to me very limited for a bodybuilding program. On the contrary a 75 to 90 minutes training seems a sweet spot.

  • @WynnStrength
    @WynnStrength Жыл бұрын

    As the program progresses through the weeks, volume increases, so the first 2-3 weeks are closer to the 45 minute range, but as the weights and overall rep counts increase, my experience was that it would push the workouts to 90+ish minutes, breaks would also take longer for me. I think if you were able to keep the rest periods to the same times throughout the entire program, your workout times would be more consistent Adding in any of that extra GPP or arm/ab stuff is what adds up to that 2 hour mark. Hope that clarifies? Let me know
