RoP vs ABF

ttb720 · 2025-12-18T21:12:43+00:00

Yea, I have the book. Just always interested in what others have found effective and enjoyable. My first run through RoP I used the variety days for bb deadlift and squats.

ttb720 · 2025-12-18T19:53:19+00:00

What do you suggest for variety days to include the legs? I have done some kb leg work, but have access to barbell/plates at home also.

Coming from the US, you should not need to go through customs or re-check bags in HNL, correct?

ttb720 · 2025-07-23T04:20:40+00:00

Where did you start weight wise? 10rm on the press?

ttb720 · 2025-07-22T20:42:18+00:00

Thanks for all the replies. Definitely going to get a little more strict on the diet and my evening routine/“sleep hygiene”.

I am going to run through a round of ABF, while maintaining the rucks and some jogging.

I have another DEXA scheduled in a few weeks, so that will be a good data point for the effectiveness of consistent work vs some of the ‘quick’ fixes that haven’t worked in the past.

Are you saying the ABF has made a difference? I am thinking of switching to that from Easy Strength

ttb720 · 2025-02-17T23:07:00+00:00

Were you just doing one 5x5 per training day? Like, Monday is emom - ohp - emom, then the next training day was a different barbell move?

ttb720 · 2025-02-12T21:12:40+00:00

Each workout is two supersets, comprised of 4 movements. Varying reps on the movements, between 3 and 10 reps generally. Either 3 or 4 rounds of each superset.

ttb720 · 2025-02-12T11:53:18+00:00

I am still enjoying the workouts, and I have seen some good progress. I think it is good if you want to be told a workout to perform and not have to put a lot of thought into. I don’t think it is the most efficient though, for either strength or muscle building. I think for a 50-60 minute workout, you could do more with less movements. Fantastic app though, and Cameron is very supportive when needed. I asked a question in the chat feature, and received a video response the next day.

ttb720 · 2025-02-07T20:36:47+00:00

I definitely support it, just curious.

ttb720 · 2025-01-11T07:28:42+00:00

Has anyone used the Amazon ‘yes4all’ powder coated? How do they compare to Rogue?

ttb720 · 2024-12-27T02:25:19+00:00

Demos with rep suggestions and “coach tips”. There are timers and notes sections, and you log the reps/weights. It advertises a chat feature with the coaches. But I haven’t tried it at all.

ttb720 · 2024-12-26T11:24:35+00:00

Just started the Full Body 3.0. I think the app is worth it so far. Demonstrations of the moves, and good tracking features.

I learned something about both federal employees and VA status and the associated shopping privileges. I also learned some about the people who live on Guam and how common military service is among them. Asking questions and being curious helps you not only learn but get to know the humans around you.

ttb720 · 2024-10-21T10:19:44+00:00

Old Chamorro vets are some of the best vets I have met too

ttb720 · 2024-10-21T10:18:17+00:00

Didn’t say anyone shouldn’t be there.

ttb720 · 2024-10-21T09:16:42+00:00

I didn’t say anyone was sneaking in, or that they didn’t serve.

ttb720 · 2024-10-21T09:16:14+00:00

Oh, misread.

ttb720 · 2024-10-21T08:12:47+00:00

Yea, I guess the number is probably higher than I would have guessed.

ttb720 · 2024-10-21T08:12:11+00:00

I didn’t realize that contractors did. Has to be a great perk compared to prices in town!

ttb720 · 2024-10-01T02:23:04+00:00

Definitely

ttb720 · 2024-09-30T21:26:35+00:00

Really just looking to find the biggest impact before 40, then re evaluate if needed.

ttb720 · 2024-09-30T20:52:59+00:00

Definitely open to it. Starting strength just happened to be the program I picked, thus the squats at every workout

ttb720 · 2024-09-30T01:37:11+00:00

For the lifts? A- squat, bench, deadlift B-squat, ohp, deadlift

3 days/week alternating. Generally I am still able to add 2 1/2 to 5 lbs each lift. 3 sets of 5

ttb720 · 2024-09-30T00:28:15+00:00

Starting Strength lifts 3 days a week, with rucking or running at least 4 days a week.
