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 BodybuildingMine already get smoked from benching and overhead press.22
Natural BodybuildingAnything around 30 degrees turns into a front delt exercise for me. Tried 15 degrees and finally felt my upper chest, but it looks basically flat lol. Anybody actually build decent upper pecs using a super low incline?14
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 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 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 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 BodybuildingBeen trying to bring my legs up but work already has me climbing lifting and dragging crap around all day. If I train legs hard before a shift I'm useless. After work my squat numbers are straight garbage. Anybody working a physical job found a split that actually works? Thinking legs Friday night then spend Saturday walking like a newborn deer lol65
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
You mean like you were injected with fentanyl and cops tried to save you?

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

Millions of people do them with no problem. Learn to balance and don't overdo the weight, jesus

Anything over 8 reps on bulgarians turns into cardio

Reverse lunges are way easier don't need five minutes of psyching yourself up 😂😂

They’re my go to. Easy on my back since it’s half the weight of a full squat
Share
Yeah if squats pissed off my back I'd give those a shot
