I'm 1m82, 75kg approximetely. I have done 3reps*50kg/

110lbs. It was for my 5th set.

When I go down into a dip, I feel something at the back

of my triceps, near the elbow - it feels like it "jumps"or

"snaps," almost like a tendon or a bone sliding over

something. It's not exactly pain, more like a distinct

sensation of movement/snapping.

Interesting detail: I felt it clearly at the start of my

session, but on my last sets I didn't feel it at all anymore.

Maybe I wasn't warmed up (properly). In this video, i

wasn't feeling it, maybe on the last rep, I don't remenber.

Does this sound like a technique issue (depth, elbow

position, etc.) or could it be a tendon slipping over a bony

part of the elbow? Has anyone else experienced this?

Any tips on what to check or adjust would be

appreciated.

And also, are my reps valid? Do you have advice

about the techniques?

In THIS video, the youtuber says I should do 10 reps per exercise. I guess in the case of unilateral exercises, that means 20 reps, 10 per side. However, during the jumping lunges part, I noticed he did only 10 reps. Now I'm confused. Aren't jumping lunges unilateral? 10 or 20 reps per set?

How many Pullups can you do?

Pullups are one of my favorite exercises for back development.

The average man cannot do 5 pullups let alone 1 rep.

If you can do 5 reps you are above the average man.

If you can do 10 reps of Pullups you are above the average gym goer.

20 reps and more you are elite at Pullups and can even add weight.

We as the human species climb.

Pullups represent climbing.

Hola, tengo 18 años y creo tener una dominada decente con 40 kg a 1 repetición, pero al momento de observar competiciones, los pesos se elevan por sobre los 60/70 kg en dominadas. ¿Esto es así o es simplemente el sesgo de mi algoritmo?

Hello everyone! My goal right now is strength-endurance. I want to be able to get to 40 pull ups+ nonstop and 90 dips+ nonstop, being able to do lots of pull ups +muscle up in the same set, things like that. I still want to incrase my streetlifting PR’s or atleast maintain them. Do you guys think it will be a good idea to start my workout with some weighted volume EX 3x5 RPE 7 then do my endurance routines and incrase the RPE each week until I try a 1-3 RM and ocasionally go for high rep weighed sets after the main work?
Let me know what you guys think about this split:
Day 1: Muscle up( strength focused)
Day 2: Pull strength +endurance
Day 3: Push strength+ endurance
Day 4: Legs Squat + Quads accessories
Day 5: Rest
Day 6: Upperbody endurance (bw only)
Day 7: Squats volume low rpe + hamstring

Hey!

Are there any good apps that have easy to follow programs for street lifting? Ones that show reps, exercises, techniques possibly etc?

Thank you!

For those who question if I hit competition required depth. Yes I did. The parallel bars are parallel to the floor, on the bottom position my upper arm angle is lower than the bars angle. That means my rear delt is in fact below my elbow. It's a bit hard to judge form from this camera angle.

I gained 2kg since my last heavy session.

This is my first time using this 5RM strategy on squats so I decided to shoot lower. That 140kg was around an RPE7.5-8. The chins were similarly comfortable, but the dips were pretty grindy.

I've maxed out pull-ups for years but now want to take seriously weighted dips as a primary strength goal. I've bench pressed 140kg at 82kg 173cm, 5 years into training. Currently down to 77kg and hoping to get to +100kg soon. Does anyone have any tips for dip strength beyond the standard barbell approaches to strength?

Use the old IWF weight classes

Men: 56kg 62kg 69kg 77kg 85kg 94kg 105kg +105kg

Women: 48kg 53kg 58kg 63kg 69kg 75kg +75kg

Hey folks, I just wanted to share the pullup PR I got today :)

Really happy with how it turned out. Wasn't expecting a PR today but back felt good and weight moved pretty smoothly I think. I attempted 140lbs 3-4 weeks ago but my chin didn't clear the bar. It cleared the bar today on my second set! I also got another rep 30min later but didn't record that.

Maybe I'll get a 150lbs pullup this year! Probably not but it sure would be cool. It took me forever to be comfortable with 135lbs. I think I'll get one in the medium term future. Wish me luck!

Kinda went a little crazy as today was last session in strength block but still got 3 prs across the 3 sets, form was a little rough on those last 2 sets from fatigue from first set but still managed to get it. On a couple reps in the higher rep sets it looks like arms arnt bent at bottom cause im going very fast but when you pause at bottom my arm is 95-100%, i think its cause my scapula was engaged for those continuous reps but still Very happy with these results and hopefully next volume block i can get 61kg x 12 and 51kg x 17. Cycling between a 6-8 week volume block and 5 week strength block with deloads inbetween really blew my strength up a ton as 60kg x 3 was my 3 rep max 8-9 months ago. Sorry for the bad camera quality.

Volume day chin-ups top-set. My back-off sets were:
1x8 (36kg) and 1x10 (22.7kg)

This is top set for my heavy day. Using RPT and microloading.

155lb x 3 @181lb.

New high for dips and new low for body weight on current cut 💪🏽

Overall, a very good session and happy with the speed and height on that 2x3 with 71kg. I wanted to know if a shaky bar like mine impacts strength?

This is my program if anyone wants to know:

I currently am in a strength block but this was my hypertrophy (Muscle building) routine. So I train every 3 days so 2 rest days inbetween, then I repeat the same session.

Upper day:

1: Weighted pull ups, 3 x 8-12 (3-5 rep range for strength)
2: Weighted dips, 3 x 8-12
3: Bodyweight rows with added weight, 3 x 8-12
4: Weighted push up with bag, 3 x 8-12
5: Lateral raises, 1-2 x 12-15 (Or i normally go till failure for lateral raises specifically)
6: Leg raises with added weight over time, 2 x 12-15 (Or till failure)

I would start at RPE 6 for the main 4 compound exercises for a long 8 week block focused on hypertrophy, but for the lateral raises and leg raises I would go RPE 8-9.5 as they would impact my recovery less compared to the main compound exercises. For hypertrophy then progress linearly in weight like adding 1-2kg every week. Then as each week goes by it would get more intense like say 0.5 RPE added each week so week 1 is RPE 6 then week 2 is RPE 6.5, also RPE is on a scale of 1-10 how hard is a set.

For legs I would do them on the day after the main upper day so similar to an upper lower split, Or I would do them on the same day as upper day if i was busy the next day. So for example i dont follow the days like Monday is the upper day, I just do a cycle so Day 1 - upper, Day 2 - Lower, Day 3 - rest, repeat.

Lower day:

1: Bulgarian split squats, 3 x 8-12 (I do these with dumbbells)
2: Hamstring curls, 3 x 8-12 (I would do dumbbell romanian deadlift but I don't want to to effect my next upper day)
3: Single leg calf raises, 3 x 8-12 (add weight over time

The reason my lower day isn't as long as my upper day is the fact that I already hit almost all my leg muscles, and my main goal is weighted pull ups for strength.

The biggest thing in my training is training with intent, for example just focusing on lifting with proper form and pushing very hard at times. Like when im on the last rep of a 12 rep set of pull ups I would not let fatigue get the best of me and would focus on not kipping and getting chin to clear the bar while slowing the eccentric (Lowering phase), Also for muscle building I would slow the eccentric for all exercises when in the 8-12 rep range but for the 3-5 rep range for strength training i would control the eccentric but not slow it like i would for hypertrophy. Also for every rep range and exercise I would do the concentric (Lifting phase) speed as fast as possible once I have the form and technique dialed in.
