The more I look at this log the more I think that LBSS would be the best served doing longer distance sprints (200-400m). It's maybe the one thing he has never done consistently.

squat 3x5 + hip thrust 3x20 :D
bss 3x10 + deadlift 3x5

Ummm. Faster, stronger, quicker, better jumpshot and he says he's jumping higher than before? I'm excited to see him play again!

Steroids. That's why he took 1 year off, so it wouldn't show in the blood tests this year. If he were to come back into the active roster last year the roids would've appeared.

Have you ever tried to get your bodyweight to somewhere at ~80 kg from 90?

You're right there, keep on doing what you do.

Yeah but if you extrapolate the 1RM off a 5RM for a beginner/intermediate trainee vs. an elite trainee... what would the difference be?

In my opinion, when the real 1RM goes above the projected 1RM, that shows you're already at a good movement efficiency rate for that movement.

But I could be wrong in that maybe it's a sign of the actual reverse of this. Maybe when you up the number of reps you can't go as heavy because of the lack of movement efficiency (that adds up over the number of reps and makes the projected 1RM be lower than your actual 1RM).

It would be interesting to find out what the case is.

Do elite squatters have a much higher 1RM than their projected 1RM from a 5 rep set, for example?

Yeah, and if you scroll the side bar you will "click" on whatever it is under the scroll bar (if you click and drag). Back a few days ago that wasn't the case (this sucks).

doesn't do that for me

It does here. Both in Chrome and in Mozilla.

Read about the ACE gene (Angiotensin Converting Enzyme).
