I don’t think any of the periodisation methods in the book will work for me
hi all,
I really need help with my training, i have tried all sorts of periodisation the book gave, linear, light/heavy, accumulation/intensification and now DUP and i have made zero progress. I film all my sets, i weigh myself weekly to make sure im on track with my cut, i try to get 7 hours of sleep, i train with good form and break form only when i’m pushing through hard and nothing seems to work. I look back at clips from THREE years ago and im doing the same DAMN shit, still stuck at straddle front lever, stuck at adv tuck planche and stuck at the bottom 1/4 of the one arm pull up.
I tried changing to a weighted programme to built as much as strength as i can, no difference, i tried being ultra specific and do progressions, no difference, i tried GTG, no GODDAMN difference.
The only thing i can allude all this shit show to is my cervical stenosis that caused my plateau for all these goddamned years. But even then that’s a shit excuse because my doctors and PTs told me to keep training.
With all that being said, i thank anyone who read this wall of text this far, i need help desperately it’s taking a toll on my mental health
edit: in case if anyone were to ask about my routine now it’s something like this:
- OAP with a belt, using number of palms to progress
- super adv tuck holds
- banded front lever press to negative
- progression of tuck planche push ups
- banded front lever rows touch
total sets per day for both pull and push is 9, done on monday, wednesday and friday, using heavy (3 reps), medium (7 reps), and light (10 reps) respectively
and i cannot do handstand movements because it compresses my spinal cord and my body goes numb
