aite so how about this, once ive got 6x60 for both legs, i keep the stronger leg on 60 while progressing the weaker leg to say 70. Then progress them both from there at the same rate

 

No. You use the same weight for both legs, with the weak leg first. This way the weak leg gets to his maximum number of repetitions while the strong leg gets "some" training effect since it still does work but it doesn't go to failure like the weak leg does.

thinking out aloud .. what is the bss? it's a kind of unilateral exercise but not really since it's not a true single leg exercise that is kind of a squat but not really because it's not below parallel. so for it to be an effective leg exercise you kind of need to be lifting a weight >> 1/2*FS_max. Why? because being a partial squat, by giving up depth we use more weight. and by giving up true unilateralism we can use more weight than 1/2 the bilateral weight. so i should be looking at building up to say 100x6 on BSS to get something out of the exercise. hows my logik?

You think too much... you shouldn't worry about correlating exercises. You shouldn't think "If I front squat 100 kg does that mean that I can do the same work back squatting 120 kg or BSS-ing with 50 kg dumbbells?"

Too many parameters to correlate these exercises. You just need to worry about improving whatever lift you're aiming to improve. If you're improving then you're getting closer to your objective of improving athleticism.

I'm not sure if doing more volume for one leg is the smart way to go... I'd rather do the same volume for both but start with the weak leg first.

Yeah because in a half squat workout you'll use a ligther weight. Oh wait...

I also think a set of 15-20 reps for pretty much anything after a heavy workout could help increasing the blood flow in those worked areas and thus help recovery and the uptake of built-up lactic acid there. So I sometimes do them at the end for recovery purposes as well.

lol at raptor negging the pit bull posts.  So much estrogen in that boy smh. 


 

You mad bro?

Any idea what's your bodyfat right now? I know I've asked in the past but are you still dropping down on the bodyfat %?

 

Um let's just say it was a ... passionate discussion. There's this guy that's marketing the thing that's debating that traditional strength training methods suck and his suit is the end all be all of training. So, you know.

By the way, the suit looks pretty neat, he says the weight is evenly distributed and can be loaded up to 70 lbs.

But then again, for 600$ you can do other stuff.
