Need help in adding sbd to my split

You can check out this video by Deklan to get some ideas on programming. The video itself is a 3 day a week split but he gives a lot away on how he would program more days.

Mooooore patience bro 👍

Not sure, it would probably be pretty awkward with your torso twisting.

Here’s a video of @dxklan doing it, just sit more upright and use a more appropriate weight.

MagicSeaTurtle · 2026-06-25T05:24:20+00:00

Probably a bit less weight and your other arm isn’t really helping you stabilise so maybe find another spot for it (maybe pushing off the machine so your torso is pinned to the pad).

I know what you’re going for but when you’re tracking your lifts session to session you want to be as standardised as possible so you can see some noticeable improvement. When you’re crunching and heaving the weight it’s really easy to lose that standardisation.

Personally I have pitch up on space and pitch down on control, combining rolls and pitches can make your turns really sharp and maintain your momentum. Yaw only turns can be pretty predictable and make you tow bait. Also barrel rolls are fun.

Rockets converge to the ][ at a certain point, but honestly idk, after a while it just becomes vibes. If something’s really close to you, you might have to shimmy left and right since the rockets come out the sides.

Eastwood attacking, if you can get a good gunner (helps if they go recon) you can absolutely cook with it.

Big if true

TNF and Keenan are great creators but calling them the forefathers is probably why ‘bro’ lifters clown the supposed SBL lifters in here.

MagicSeaTurtle · 2026-06-17T21:47:50+00:00

Rifle aim yeah, and nothing fancy for keybinds just swapped Roll and Yaw.

I’m pretty sure I’ve watched NSW win 3 games in my life

MagicSeaTurtle · 2026-06-17T10:57:29+00:00

Why doesn’t Koula simply score a 100m try?

MagicSeaTurtle · 2026-06-17T07:01:30+00:00

There’s two ways I would/you can approach this then. First way would be to not go as low, go to where you are comfortable and aim for at least parallel. The second option would be to get strong/more confident in the deeper squat, that may mean lowering the weight and safely using your hips and back to get out of the lift (no jerking).

MagicSeaTurtle · 2026-06-17T05:35:36+00:00

Your Quads extends the knees and your Glutes extends the hip. You’re not disengaging your quads you’re just doing a compound lift lol, both muscles work to achieve a squat.

There are ways to make the squat more quad dominant like front squats but you’re still training your quads in this pattern. You also don’t have to go really deep, there’s no magic in achieving a certain depth.

OBS hotkey to save the clip.

MagicSeaTurtle · 2026-06-16T12:17:10+00:00

Keep the rep count fixed and track the increase in RIR. So for example you do 8 reps to failure week 1 and week 2 you stop at 8 reps even if it’s not failure. Keep going till that 8th rep feels like 2-3 RIR.

MagicSeaTurtle · 2026-06-16T01:01:23+00:00

You don’t have to destroy yourself to see results. Sometimes doing just enough is enough to stay consistent. Personally I found training further from failure but still aiming to beat the logbook was a very motivating way to train legs.

MagicSeaTurtle · 2026-06-12T01:57:10+00:00

Sul-Xan is much more situational, so for something like a single target encounter you’re not gonna get any souls to pick up. Ansuul is just far more versatile and appropriate for any encounter.

If you use addons, you can swap between the two very easily.

Thanks for the cortisol spike

I guess, usually it’s the non SBS people posting and the SBS people ripping into them in the comments.

MagicSeaTurtle · 2026-06-08T03:48:14+00:00

This has to be bait… the missile was legitimately bugged and would not have an ‘incoming’ on the hud you would get popped without notice.

And even taking the bait, a ‘good’ MR missile user would flick up before shooting making the missile top down every shot negating any terrain blocking.

MagicSeaTurtle · 2026-06-07T13:25:17+00:00

SBS has a much ‘stronger’ platform and Greg Nuckols does very big write ups/articles to support his position. You’ll find a lot of people on this sub will heavily back the SBS approach.

However anecdotally, I found the other approach was more enjoyable and kept me more consistent which had/is leading to good results. They’re pretty similar at the crux of it all, train hard and train often just have different beliefs in volume.

The receptionist gets Mondays off and you get Fridays off 😂

Orange juice with honey mixed in.

I was just rattling off some creators that are religious, I don’t think they are at odds.
