i haven't did decline since ripptoe called it a flat bench with a...decline
bench gains have been prosperous. but i will say i was throwing up 315 on decline when I wasn't even at 300 on flat. let me know how easy it was lol. where's you bench at now? Im almost at 365. my deadlift is about 480 now. and im squatting 1 plate lmao.
been doing rack pulls like you about 2 months now. definitely feel it got me past the plateau. that and warming up more.
on a side note, the dude who runs the quartersquatgang IG randomly picked me out of all comments to troll. then he wanted to do a mock meet. i told him come through to bx but im not squatting cause i have a meniscus tear. then powerhouse wasn't a real gym. then he called me soft. then i told him come show me how soft he is. i kept calling his phone, he wouldn't pick up. then he blocked me on his personal page and the quartersquat page lmaoooo. i'd post the DM screenshots but i'd get another ban so nah im good lol.
actually i dont even know if the number he gave me was even his.

I've lost a lot of weight on it while still doing SL 5x5. My problem lately has been forgetting to eat.

Bruhhhhh. Anytime I'm at 200 or lower carbs( losing keto now) my pressing movements go to ****. Everything else is good maybe a little less energy but other than that I can hit the same weight.

You gotta do the pre workouts man.
Unfortunately the pump won't be the same. Because of lack of glycogen getting there but that's the only way. Im still sore as all hell.

I should fill out once I reintroduce carbs right? Because I'm feeling small as hell right now. If I hear another "you're getting skinny" comment [emoji]128545[/emoji]

I did keto for 3 months and posted my thoughts on it a while back.
Cliffs:
Pros: Lost weight, dropped body fat, felt good, got to eat some delicious fatty foods.
Cons: Strength decreased, muscle mass dropped a bit, and it was kind of expensive.
I was aware of the cons going in, but I was prepared to sacrifice my strength and muscle mass for a short time to get my body fat to a level that I can maintain and slowly start to increase strength. Some people on keto might say it possible to get stronger, or that your strength will decrease initially, but will come back up. Neither was the case for me. Could have been my meal plan, or something else. Either way I'm just speaking from experience.

What about front squats? Would take the pressure off your back and youd still get the benefits
