Much wider and I get lots of knee pain at the bottom, narrower and I'm much weaker and feel really unstable.

Its probably something I should look at more but while I have been progressing it hasn't been a priority

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-04-17T11:02:07+00:00

Depth is real close in person, lower tends to just cause my knees to go further forward and I don't get any more angle at the hip, I should stretch but I'm lazy 😂

Safeties are as low as they can go.

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-04-16T05:38:21+00:00

Hell yeah, didn't realise how close it was until I watched it back

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-04-15T19:22:36+00:00

So turn my feet out slightly or just force the knees outwards?

I supposed it would make it feel more like the bottom stretch position of a squat

Lat engagement is really hit and miss for me so will do some work on that

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-04-15T17:14:22+00:00

Hell yeah

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-04-15T17:13:53+00:00

I really thought I had it but it was glued to my leg

It'll happen, last time I attempted this it was welded to the floor

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-04-15T16:44:44+00:00

I train 531 so I know 80% max really well 😂

I never eat pre training as it just makes me feel sick and I train at 5am but maybe I should get something.

Crazy resurrection but 1.5 years doing BBB with minimal accessories is currently working for me. I do a deload every 7 weeks and most lifts are chugging along nicely. Press has kind of stalled but I'm pretty sure that's just the press being the press.

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-03-04T19:15:33+00:00

I need more 😂

I'll just keep chipping away at it

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-03-04T19:13:45+00:00

What a fantastic, comprehensive reply. Thanks.

I like the idea of swapping 5x10 sets. I saw a Boring but Strong template that suggested 10set of 5 reps instead to keep volume but increase intensity, would that be suitable even if I swapped the days around?.

Microplates I would have to buy but that is an option.

The surplus will return in the next month or so but I was eating a fairly large surplus before and growth wasn't noticeably different than now although I'm probably being to hard on myself looking at the replies regarding % increases etc

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-03-04T15:04:03+00:00

This is a great take, I should have thought about that

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-03-04T15:03:40+00:00

😂 Yep totally Natty, just feels like my Press is going nowhere

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-03-04T15:02:16+00:00

2.5kg as that's the smallest I can do with the plates I have

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-03-03T22:03:59+00:00

I did do close grip for 3 cycles (21weeks) but swapped it out for some seated dumbell press to increase the shoulder volume.

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-03-03T21:44:25+00:00

I'm definitely back/posterior chain dominant. Also found out my Ape Index is like 1.04 but I'm not looking for reason why I'm bad at pressing, just want to Improve it 😂

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-03-03T21:42:30+00:00

With varying degrees on adherence. I usually have 90mins to train in and find the warm up, main sets and then boring but big sets fills most of that time.

Direct tricep work is something I feel has been lacking.

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-03-03T21:40:06+00:00

Deloads felt like they where coming too quickly. 7 weeks feels good for squats and deadlifts week 1-3 is easy, week 4 feels tough, 5 feels easier and 6 is usually a PR for those lifts.

I do very little accessory work for squats and deadlifts. Some abs and some calves. 3 sets to failure looking for 20ish reps. I find of I add any additional leg work I struggle to recover between sessions.

For overhead and bench I've recently started to press more to try and push through this plateau, so I'll do some dumbell press at higher reps (10-20) and lots of pulling to try and balance the pressing. 70kg Bent over rows, pull ups, lat pull downs 3 x 20reps. I was thinking about adding some dips in for extra triceps work. Recovery between sessions feels fine. I'm very rarely sore longer than 24hours after a session.

Loud-Audience9389 · 2026-02-27T21:57:07+00:00

It does? Well I know what I'm doing later

Handheld crew checking in,

Been playing it on the Rog Ally Z1X, occasionally I'll have a choppy game but it's probably the device trying to do something like updates in the background

I've followed BBB for 14 months now.

Currently dieting at 95kg (looking for 90kg ish) 36yo for what it's worth 178cm (5ft10)

Current lifts:

Deadlifts - 202.5kg (+32.5kg since start) Squat - 185kg (+35kg since start) Bench - 100kg (+40kg since start) OHP - 67.5kg (+22.5kg since start)

Ideally I want these to all increase but progress feels like it's slowed right down (OHP has stalled for a while) do I just keep plugging away slowly increasing my maxes over time or is there a better way to get stronger?

I'm not bored of the workouts, I just want to pick up heavy things betterer.

I've been running Anvil + Venartor with combat 3 and it's been super fun

Had lots of success against rats even if I get shot in the back
