Natural BodybuildingGuys swap exercises every two weeks because some influencer found a new "science based" cable angle. Pick movements that feel good, log them, and beat the numbers for six months. Your muscles aren't bored. You're bored.12
Natural BodybuildingSome dudes spend 30 minutes warming up with bands, mobility drills and six warmup sets before getting to a working weight. You fags need to just get right to it.33
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
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 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 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 BodybuildingGood 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 productive47
Creatine apparently works even if you don't

Most guys will see 30% less and just do less. Only works if you absolutely kill yourself on the mini sets

Works well when I've done it in the past. But I usually only do it on days I don't have as much time

I do rest pause sets which is close, but with only one additional set instead of going til you get less than 3. But I don't do 30% less, my workouts are about 2.5 hours each. And it's worked wonders.

Overkill. Wayy too much, you're gonna hurt yourself.

I've been doing it for 5 years with no significant problems. Just an injury here and there which was the same before I started lifting this much.

The 30% was volume load, not necessarily 30% fewer sets. Still useful if you wanna have shorter workouts though.

Duh? Who said it was 30% fewer sets?
