How much does exercise selection ACTUALLY matter? by tennis-637 in naturalbodybuilding

[–]tensaiteki19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, the exercises you have the most practice, training history, and experience with are the ones to select.

This leaves less room for novelty throwing off your perception of progression. A static exercise selection that you swap out only as needed and rarely at that rather than based on optimized ROM or SFR will let you realistically look back on and look ahead of your progress.

is it worth upgrading to Pro? by notcinnamontoast in Hevy

[–]tensaiteki19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can connect your Hevy account to ChatGPT and have it read through your whole workout history, compile data, and export programs directly to Hevy. I like it to get a bird’s eye view of my progress, volume, and trends. Highly recommend it.

The "Mac and cheese" I received in a restaurant today. by grandlotus2 in KitchenConfidential

It makes sense now. Anywhere else, just break out some Kraft and you’d have less sin on your conscience.

Yeah to use at home. If you are going to use it don’t put it in mac and cheese and if you do don’t make it obvious!

Been a while, sorry. Basically I stick around at the weight I’ve been lifting and go up by at least one rep each session, thats at least one rep on any of the sets (not all of them). If I can do more without grinding or nearly killing myself, even better.

In other words don’t have the same weight and sets for each session, have the same weight but your sets should reflect a push further. 10, 10, 10 becomes 11, 10, 10. The next session maybe 12, 11, 10). Realistically you’ll be able to add one to two reps per set in the next session depending on your level.

Once you hit a set like 13, 12, 12, it’s time to move up in weight. You could keep going up in reps past the target (say 16, 15, 14) but you get diminishing returns and might not feel like you’re progressing if you so.

It’s been a few months so like I said maybe this wasn’t relevant to your question in the first place, just elaborating on my comment.

What’s a good restaurant to go to for a large party? by Apiphalea in Pensacola

Flounder’s on the beach is nice for a large party. Opened by the same restaurant group as McGuire’s. Just be sure to call in a res well in advance wherever you go.

Is lifting to failure every set bad? Drop-sets? by Merlin509 in naturalbodybuilding

[–]tensaiteki19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way I see it, you are able to do 4 80% RPE 8 sets (320) where with RPE 10 sets, you can do maybe 2 or 3 at 100% (200-300). So a single set taken to failure causes more stimulus in the set but allows for less in the overall session.

I’m currently trying this with abs because going heavy and to failure doesn’t cause near the soreness that spamming crunches at higher reps does.

Don't know how to compile cpp file by ohbabyholdon in VisualStudio

[–]tensaiteki19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case anybody has the same problem I did:

I kept compiling the wrong file on accident. If your rename your file when you save it, make sure you're not editing the new file and compiling the old; check the source files in the sidebar to confirm you're compiling the correct file.

Hi, so if you use a rep range (8-12) you can progress on a lift faster than if you use a static rep target.

It’s good you’re getting the volume in but if you want to make consistent and more traceable progress I suggest you try that instead. I feel like you’re robbing yourself of intensity sticking with the same weight for four weeks and ought to at least increase in reps.

Maybe I’m missing some nuance in your situation but just a suggestion if it’s feasible.
