Ketosis and heart rate increase Boydsta 10 4 yearsATN_Coaching (1582): Here is my question to this as we have a general basis as to what your goals are. 1.) What are your current numbers, people think they are running keto and really are not as people truly misunderstand. If you have no clue as to how much you are eating issue as that may causing the issues. 2.) How much salt are you taking in, are you using any added sodium at all? 3.) Hydration what does your hydration look like? There is no set goal for water...
Recommended Occlusion Straps for arms. abc1971 8 4 yearsabc1971 (10): @ATN_Coaching Can you tell me how long your Habringer wrist wraps are and do they have Velcro? I see some options online but not sure if a 20" wrist wrap will work since my arms are 18". I know they stretch but not sure what length wrist wrap I should get in order to wrap around my biceps securely by myself. Thanks.
New Video: What matters most in training ATN_Coaching 1 4 yearsATN_Coaching (1582): What's good peoples I recorded and uploaded a new video to my channel on a very hot topic right now that was as hot as IIFYM/flexible dieting/nutrition. From that in this video I touch on what are the key pieces to setting up a truly successful training program. Some of you may agree, disagree entirely, or be 50/50. With that if /when you get a chance please feel free to comment/ask questions here or on my channel. FYI: I had a ton of coffee...

Linear Periodization SnackIt 22 5 yearsRookiePT (244): Not trying to be offensive, but you started this thread saying you overcomplicating last time and now you just wanted to have some fun while working out... It seems to me like you're quickly taking the "overcomplicating" route again. You already had a lot of great feedback, pick a routine and see if it works for you, if it doesn't then adjust it!

Layne Nortons new program lolssons 1 5 yearslolssons (1249): Have you guys checked out laynes new PH3 program at Bb.com it is DUP styled hypertrophy program looks really intense and not for beginners at anymeans. But I know there are some advanced lifters on this forum that might wanna check it out. Looks fun too.
PHAT & PHUL combined? Umoo 3 5 yearsUmoo (1): If you mean the 3-day PPL program I think progress can be better made when training same muscle groups twice a week. If you mean the 5-day rotating PPL routine I only have time for 4 days in a week as a student. I think 2x upper 2x lower like PHUL suits me best for bulking but I really liked the concept of PHAT after performing it for a month so I tried combining them
Phat 3+3 gelloxor 1 5 yearsgelloxor (1): Is it possible to do phat with ppl+ppl kind of style? I mean, yeah sure its possible but is it wise?

I love to get bigger,but I also love to get stronger and bigger one rep maxes on my main moves bench,squat,dl. Im just that kind of guy who cant get happy with upgrade benching 10x90kg to 12x90kg.

This was my first time dieting to maintain muscle and didn't realize the difference. I made it 195lbs by July and started cutting calories more down to 1,850. Thankfully for this online community and some guys who have been down this road many times, got me to rethink and take a break. @SRorhrbac0808 is hitting the nail on the head for you. I have been...
PHAT: Mix of two versions hulkZ 4 5 yearsdarklight79 (3088): You're asking for opinions. You got a good one earlier yet you chose to disregard it. How long have you been lifting? IMO PHAT is a very solid program but not recommended for beginners.
phat/ ppl cryptic 2 5 yearsMethod (379): This is similar to what I've been running the past month. I really like it. I felt like I wasn't getting enough recovery time with the standard PPL and I like going heavy at 5-8 reps.

Lets lose the PHAT - Log SnackIt Jump to first page54Jump to last page 6 yearsTamere02 (1474): @SnackIt Try weighing yourself everyday and getting an average for the week, relying on one day a week is unreliable imo (from what I take it you weigh in every Monday?)

I assume your reduction in kcals (again I noticed you reduce them by quite a bit on a regular basis) is mainly carbs which when you lower you also tend to lose water weight...

Squat help!! mrPopo 4 6 yearsSOLARSUPLEX (8314): Im not super technical with names and what not, but the outside of my hips are weak which would cause the inside of the leg to try and compensate for its weak counterpart.

Modified Layne Norton Power/Hypertrophy smooge 10 6 yearseknight (58109): Layne advises not doing deads and squats in the same workout at all. Re. lunges (or leg exercises in general), when you are considering what muscle is doing the primary amount of work, just consider the joint movements. During the concentric portion of the movement, the knees and extending. The hamstrings flex the knee, while the quads extend it. -3X

neglected core r1c0 11 6 yearseknight (58109): I think the only time I've had rest periods that long is when I was squatting using Smolov. For just about everything else, I train fast. I've done meets where I didn't have much time between lifts, so I got in the habit of training the way I would compete. -3X
PHAT - Rep range SnackIt 6 6 yearseknight (58109): Add weight as appropriate to stay within the prescribed rep range, with the exception of the speed work- you could theoretically use the same weight for a very long time with the goal of increasing speed. -3X

In terms of when to move up, even if you don't go to failure, you should have a pretty good idea of, "I could do 2 more next time with this weight," or "last week I had to stop at 6 reps because 7 would have been failure, but this week, I got 8 and 9 would have been failure."

Stupid phat question,that must be answered VytasP 10 7 yearsGougher (208): PHAT is a nonlinear periodisation. You are supposed to change the exercises when you're stagnating, wih equal ones. Keep the reps/sets the same, as @eknight said himself. As for you that say that you are NOT supposed to change any exercises ever. Do you think that those top-level athletes that also use PHAT, never switch up their workout routines? As he said himself. It's not a program. It's a way of training.(himself being Layne Norton)

Cardinal's Log cardinal Jump to first page75Jump to last page 8 yearscardinal (6175): Really cut my kcals again this week. Time for a big weigh in tomorrow. Hoping those scales will put me near 158 lbs. After that I'm questioning how much lighter I can get. Also got a 170kg x 6 squat on Wednesday. At 160 lbs. Less than a month now and I also get my life back from work. Just need to maintain this warrior monk like focus. Wake, eat, lift, study, meal prep, sleep, repeat. All there is right now.

phat POWER DAY REST TIME goBIGorGOhome 5 8 yearseknight (58109): This. IMO, OP, you're approaching this from the wrong perspective. Rather than worrying about how much total weight you can lift and needing so long between sets, I'd advise only taking 2 minutes (3 tops) and lift as much as you can there. As that amount increases, use this increase as a measure of progress. You're still progressing, you're still making gains, and you're not training using a 4:1 sitting on your butt:actual lifting ratio. -3X

Thats INSANE going from 40% to 17% in under a year- you have gotten stronger as well, its not like you've went out and just stopped eating- do you eat more now than you did when you were 40%? your metabolisms probably got a lot faster (pressuming you didn't do much physical activity before you started lifting and yoga etc).

Switching to phat during a cut Shezza94 3 8 yearstamere01 (7126): I think it will depend more on your current split and how much strength you've lost in relations to your weight loss.

Other Programs After PHAT KalletSc 8 8 yearskickinchicken (8717): Push/Pull/Legs is a good set-up. Im not a fan of Max-OT. Strength went up a bit but very minimal mass gains. And very boring.

I do believe @skullay is on a routine like that. I was thinking about doing the same.

PHAT Hypertrophy Rep-Ranges: 8-20?! sazthetics 18 8 yearssazthetics (16): I had a similar understanding to you. I think sets up to 20 still do stimulate muscular hypertrophy, just to a lesser extent. I think Layne Norton's idea was to incorporate all rep-ranges in order to shock the muscles, not allowing them to adapt to a set rep range.
I hate to FAIL! kickinchicken 5 8 yearskickinchicken (8717): Next time I'll tell myself I'm lifting kittens or lawn gnomes or something. Ahhh! I kinda want to go back to the gym right now and do it.
Cleans tiesun2 3 8 yearsDirkenhiemer (12157): Hang Cleans are the shit. I'm not very good at them yet, but I think they're a lot of fun. They're the only thing that will make my traps grow! Personal best is 225x4 before I injured myself. I just did 200x7 yesterday. So it's getting better. :)

PHAT: Auxiliary & Assistance Exercises? sazthetics 18 8 yearsDirkenhiemer (12157): Meh, I've never liked Rack Chins anyways. Perhaps I should give them a shot again. I'm getting tired of just pull ups. It just feels repetitive and pointless!

Phat layne norton In4gainZ 2 8 yearseknight (58109): I would stay at ~50%. The object of the dynamic effort is NOT to "stimulate fast twitch fibers." It's to stimulate the CNS. Every time you train, you're going to stimulate fast twitch fibers anyway. -3X

How to alter phat w/ out changing it Tyjaws 11 8 yearsNorIda (46958): Lol. Sorry for the dbag responses. But as @ek said. PhaT is more of a template than solid routine. My routine looks nothing like the routine that you can find online. Adjust it however you need to, add in or remove exercises and make it work.
phat ??? juanf122388 6 8 yearsAarronStenner (10990): long as you have your big lifts in each day e.g. legs- squats/deads back- bb row/t-bar row. Chest- bench wtih bb or db. Arms- bb curl/skull crushers. You can add any amount of other exercises after them but id limit to one or two per body part. I do 3 max for one bodypart

How much should I lower the volume on PHAT? Jordan336 23 8 yearsJelet (2190): Theres a big difference in form on hypertrophy days and power days.

Power days if u do this, u wont make muchbpeogress and will get injury No body does this ... Go look at layne norton vids of him going heavy tbar rows.

Speedwork in P.H.A.T. G3NGHIS 12 8 yearsjhew86 (1): Speed work otherwise known as "dynamic work" is essential in most powerlifting programs (used extensively by westside barbell). As mentioned above, it does save wear and tear on the joints; it also allows an increase in speed strength (the time it takes to move the bar from point A to point B). This method is essentially utilized to improve ones ability during the power days because it works as an assistance means to allow you to move...

Progress Update w/ Pics rklohe 17 9 yearslift4life (595): @rklohe i also forgot to add that you should also stay away from any soy products such as soy milk etc.. as soy is know to increase estrogen levels within the body and disrupt the normal hormone level therefore resulting in man boob/gyno, there was a case that a man had consumed allot of soy protein is his main source of protein and had developed breasts. also he said that it MIGHT go away when you turn to the age of 20/21 so theres not a 100%...
Fork in the road - What would you do? Ben777 10 9 yearsBen777 (5358): @dwatson yeah man that's probably what I'll do then. Bulk till around 205lbs I think then mini cut and start again! @Drag for sure brother, probably going to continue along the bulking path for a while longer because I really dont want to lose a whole lot of mass at this stage. Will see how far I can go until just before summer then bring on a mini cut!

New Workout Program Suggestions alexvierling 2 9 yearsNeverbackdown19 (183): Just finished another phase of GVT myself, done it a few times now - loved it, but yea your body takes a betting. I did enjoy PHAT when i did it, good results like most people. Im currently on my second week of Neil Hill's Y3T program. I'm liking it so far, definitely can feel the soreness the next day! Hoping to see some great results at the end! Another program I sometimes go back to is a FST-7 program. I've seen great results with it each...
Phat Exercise Cycle rklohe 1 9 yearsrklohe (511): Hey guys, just finished week 3 of PHAT and am seeing awesome results. Fat is being lost and I am gaining a lot of strength and size. I LOVE the program so far. My Question: going in to week 4 should I switch up the exercises so I dont plateau? And specifically which exercises I should rotate in? Switching BB bench for DB bench, front squats instead of back squats etc... This is my routine so far: Day 1: Upper Body Power Day Pulling...
Cutting advice Kyle0910 15 9 yearsKyle0910 (42): Ok I see what your saying. So there wouldn't really be any rep range where you could cause more muscle separating rather than muscle building, it's all in the genetics and your better off just making your own tempo and rep range that works beat for you?
PHAT Training Progress xlGrimlx 22 9 yearsxlGrimlx (94): So deload week almost finished and feel good. Left shoulder/outside tri is still hurting but everything else is great. Ready to hit the 90/100's on db incline hoping the arm doesn't slow me down too much. Still on a cut and seeing very very slow progress, but it from me not sticking to my diet. Well will post new progress next week when back on the normal weights. Ready to go back to some heavy ass weight.
PHAT Question pl8e 3 9 yearspl8e (163): Thanks mate. Injuries do suck. It seems that everytime you think you are starting to do well at the gym something happens to set you back, but I suppose you get that playing sport. Anyway, that's enough self pitty. Time to get back into lifting some serious weights... upper body only though.

PHAT question Omartinez17 13 9 yearsSwayz87 (9039): I think the key as far as Arm placement and grip is gunna be Form mostly! For example: Tucking your arms during CGBP and not flaring them...Same for Dips Arms tucked unless you wanna hit the Chest more then tri....Pretty much if you wanna hit tris the Hardest make sure to TUCK THEM BOWS SON!
Deadlifts and PHAT. KalletSc 9 9 yearsSwayz87 (9039): When I ran Phat I would switch out the Main lifts every 4 weeks... so legs I switched Squats for heavy Leg presses and Stiff Legged DLs for Regular ones...I would then switch back to squats and Stiff legged after another 4 weeks...

Switching from Max OT to PHAT! JJ3065 15 9 yearsskullay (4036): I actually have a friend that lives in the Charleston area! This video might happen sooner than you think man! Maybe I'll go back to my 5 day split. I ran a version GVT before but the version I did didn't have the supersets throughout the program. Maybe I'll go back to my 5 day split then. I really like working everything twice/week. I guess I'll start researching programs a little closer towards the end of my 12 week run with PHAT.

PHAT Kyle0910 16 9 yearsKyle0910 (42): So just an update after my first week of PHAT I have gained 5 lbs. didn't think that was really possible but maybe I just weighed myself wrong or at a bad time. My diet throughout the day is solid but if I find out I'm not getting in enough calories or protein I'll have like 3 mcdoubles just to push me over my maintenance. Maybe it's all just Fat. Regardless, I love the program!
PHAT soreness Rand 6 9 yearseknight (58109): Negative. Technically the human body doesn't produce actual lactic acid. It produces lactate, but even there, increases in lactate concentration doesn't result in DOMS or any kind of acidosis. delayed onset muscle soreness. Lactate can't donate a proton to create acid, thus the acidic form of lactate (lactic acid) isn't actually produced in muscle. That's a myth. -EK

Going to stay on a 1600-1800 calorie diet for the next two weeks and see if I can get lower while starting PHAT routine today. Adding in cardio 3-4 times a week doing 20min sprint 8's (3min warmup, 8x 30sec hard as you can go with 90sec between to let the heart rate come down and a 2min 30sec cooldown).

What kind of results can I expect from PHAT? alexmuller 30 9 yearsZwalk (906): Tips and changes were that I actually did more exercises than it intended for me to do, didn't incorporate legs every day. I would do MTW power, TFSun Hypertrophy Leg workout was in the morning on thursday, followed by my hypertrophy chest and tricep workout later that evening. And eat your ass off

Just finished Layne's PHAT - what's next? Avk77 13 9 yearsmikew (11494): Ahh, okay. Yeah, that approach makes sense to me. For non-compound lifts or machine work I usually do 1 set with high time under tension (5 seconds down, 5 sec up). This provides a good burn in half the time of doing several regular sets. Try using TuT and you'll see what I mean. This approach makes for very efficient work outs. Above you said you were considering tacking on a compound lift to the end of your arms workout. This idea...
