Good exercise I guess, but the setup sucks and I can barely breathe after.
Swapped them for reverse lunges and my quads are growing fine.
Starting to think Bulgarians are mostly popular because misery makes people feel productive

Natural BodybuildingI'm hitting glutes 3x a week and ending up around 20 hard sets total. Mostly hip thrusts, RDLs, split squats and abductions. Strength was moving up for a while but now Im just permanently sore and my last few sets feel kinda pointless. Sleep and protein are fine. Would you cut sets first or just drop the third day entirely? Curious where everyone elses sweet spot is for actually growing55
Natural BodybuildingI’ve been lifting for 16 years. My supplement stack is: 1g of protein per pound per day Viagra before lifting for blood circulation 6g of creatine per day 5g of beta alanine per day spaced out over 7 doses Fish oil Vitamin D Multivitamin Yohimbine24

Natural BodybuildingI see guys turn full ROM bicep curls into standing hip thrusts when going for a max, then celebrate a PR. Same deal with half rep leg presses and rows that become lower back swings. I've started tracking load AND rep quality. If the last rep looks nothing like the first, I don't add weight next week. Ego hates it. Muscles like it.42
Natural BodybuildingI started filming my lifts some and apparently my 1 RIR was like 3 or 4 reps left half the time. Wanted the set to actually look hard on camera and turns out I could go way more than I thought. Anyone else wildly bad at judging RIR?52
Natural BodybuildingI used to take 1 minute breaks cause I felt lazy scrolling my phone. But my weight would drop drastically between sets. Recently started taking 2.5 minutes on big lifts and 2 on isolations. Feel like I'm making progress agan. Do you guys time rests or just wait until you feel ready?12
Natural BodybuildingBeen skipping direct ab work because they're covered up anyway and heavy lifts hit them some. Now I'm wondering if thats just lazy fat guy logic. Do you guys always do abs?18
Natural BodybuildingMaybe I just suck at them, but pullups always turn into forearm and bicep workouts. I know this is gonna trigger some. Anybody else ditch them and grow better?32
You mean like you were injected with fentanyl and cops tried to save you?

Anything over 8 reps on bulgarians turns into cardio

Dont do them, they’re dangerous. I’m always wobbling on them trying to keep my balance.
