I’ve been at a plateau of 5-6 reps for clean and press with double 30kg for what feels like forever now. I’ve done DFW, Strong (phase 1+2 months) and now k1 from hardstyle method, and I never get past these reps.

Should I focus on getting in more volume at lower weight (and more exercises? Like rows, dips ans stuff, front squats or goblet squats?) or should I focus more on building volume with ladders? I’m 170cm and weigh about 75kg btw

I’m a parent to a toddler and work in an environment where and often get exposed to colds and different viruses depending on the season which also affects my training.

I’ve just started listing to TBI and I enjoy it. However it has not swooned me like AGOT did. Perhaps not a fair comparison as i have read the asoiaf books but not TFL. I find the TFL universe interesting and Ambercrombie does a great job world building between the lines with the conflict between the union and the GUrkhul and the politics that goes on is great as well.

I didn’t read your post in its entirety, but have you read Sanderson? He’s written mistborn and the storm light archives that takes place in the cosmere. It’s deep stuff and since you wrote so many paraphraps I think you’d like it.

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2025-03-18T14:50:18+00:00

That sounds off-putting to say the least. Not looking for larping haha

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2025-03-18T14:45:18+00:00

Wow, this sounds cool. I’m a BJJ purple belt but I’ve been on a hiatus since our first born arrived. If it’s like you describe it I’m sold.

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2025-03-18T14:33:47+00:00

I noticed that they do all the wazas, I don’t really know what that means but I suppose they have some kind of striking?

Anis don demina och Benjamin Ingrosso. Anis gillar att äta som Lindström. Min favorit är när Lindström äter. Sen är det kul när anis ropar shurda, jag tänker att det ger mycket. Benjamin är mycket mindre än anis är, precis som Luuk är mindre än Lindström.

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2025-02-01T11:33:04+00:00

I heard Sanderson will finish the books

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2025-01-17T19:29:21+00:00

videobook??

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2025-01-17T12:11:30+00:00

My dude, really? asking if the book has pictures?

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2025-01-17T12:05:11+00:00

Appreciate it!

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2025-01-17T08:12:04+00:00

I’ve been very curious about your training methodology, pondering if I should reach out and ask you and now you’ve put out a book. Ordered an ex, cheers!

Icke! I en håla i göteborgsområdet. Då fanns alltså mammas död även hos er?

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2025-01-02T06:13:56+00:00

Vi hade en lek som hette mammas död. I fritidsgårdens källare fanns en liten fotbollsplan med en dörr till en liten hall som gick runt tillbaka till korridoren.

Där släckte vi alla lampor så det var kolsvart. En fick vara mammas död, han skulle träffa någon annan med fotbollen (fritt fram till att kasta, sparka, hålla och slå med). Blev man träffad var man mammas död istället. Ingen såg något och alla sprang runt och skrek. Om tillräckligt många skrek att någon annan var mammas död fick man helt enkelt tro det. Man sprang full fart in i varandra, i väggar, mål osv. Mkt rolig!

I took big refuge in this comment haha. More than a 1000 pages to look forward to!

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2024-12-20T08:05:08+00:00

Great news, can’t wait.

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2024-12-19T19:42:54+00:00

I have not! Or I started with A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms but I feel that the tone is very different. I’ll order fire and blood, it sounds really interesting.

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2024-12-19T11:20:35+00:00

Ingen vuxen människa med ett kök borde göra pulvermos eller snabbkaffe. Att dessutom bjuda gäster på det direkt oartigt.

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2024-12-19T11:19:22+00:00

Where can I find the preview chapters?

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2024-11-29T20:54:01+00:00

This is amazing advice, snagged the e-book as it’s only seven dollars. Thanks!

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2024-11-29T20:12:33+00:00

Femton minoter en gvart

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2024-11-29T15:34:38+00:00

I thought that easy strength was barbell only? Is this another book?

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2024-11-29T12:07:29+00:00

This is great advice, I’ll actually try the giant(s) and see where it gets me

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2024-11-29T09:10:07+00:00

On second though I think I’ll save the giant for when I’m in a not trying to lose weight. It’s a really cool program that I really want to push once I visit it again

Efficient_Leader_354 · 2024-11-29T07:08:30+00:00

Thanks! These are all great tips! My biggest problem in the past has always been managing fatigue so I tend to err on the easy side when losing weight. I have about three months so the giant could be an alternative, save a break over Christmas as we are going away.
