If i do upper lower 6x a week should i do 1 set per excercise , or still 2, because i think it might be too much volume for some muscle groups, especially if i go to failure

Thanks in advance

So for context, i have been training again for about 2.5 months, 6 years earlier i did strength training 2x a week for 3 years. And i have been stalling on my chest and incline press for about 3bweeks now, not getting another rep or barely getting another rep. I did 2 sets of flat and incline press but reduced incline by 1 set. So its now 2 sets and 1 set 2 to 3x a week. I do it first on my upper days and all my other excercises are progressing good. What can i do? Its only chest where my progress stops

Lmao the title is funny but. How should you breathe during your reps? Some videos say dont exhale on the contentric this or that.

What i do is breathe in, exhale on the concentric and inhale on the eccentric, is that good? And on deadlifts i exhale and inhale when the barbell is on the ground, because a few videos said you'l place more stress on your back or something

So i saw a few science based videos where they say dont exhale on the concentric and one says dont breathe in on the ecentric. How should you breathe during your reps?

What i do is i breathe in, exhale on the concentric and breathe in on the eccentric

Thanks in advance

So this is either gonna get upvotes or downvoted a lot but last eye is becoming a legend at this point, and it would be funny to see a video of someone trying to forgot the word, but like trying to find out who this legend is

Just wanted to say this lmao, love you all fams

So i want to get better at deadlifts and i dont know if i should do them at the beginning or the end of my leg days, and how fatigueing would 2 sets to failure at the beginning of my leg day be? Would it be too tiring and make me lose so much performance that my progress would slow down a lot?

Thanks in advance

So i'm planning on switching my lower days from 2x a week to 2x a week with lower A and lower B, but a friend of mine said that my lower B will be tiring because i do 2 sets of deadlifts at the start , first set is 5 reps of 70% of my 1RM and 2nd set is to failure with 80% of my 1RM

This is my new schedule:

Deadlifts 2x

Seated hamstring curl 2x

Leg press 2x

Hip thrust 1x

Sldl 2x

Leg extension 2x

Hip adduction 2x

Hip abduction 1x

Calf raises 3x

My old schedule which i'l be doing once a week now is:

Hamstring curl 2x

Leg press 3x

Hip thrust 1x

Sldl 2x

Leg extension 2x

Hip addiction 2x

Hip abduction 1x

Calf raises 3x

On my days with deadlifts i'm thinking about doing leg extensions after my leg press because the earlier sets give more stimulus, should i do deadlifts after my leg press or? Since they are pretty fatigueing especially if you go close to failure on them

Thanks in advance and i appreciate your help

So what pre workout meal do you eat?

I just eat rice cakes so i get 30 to 50 grams of carbs in, sometimes a banana if i'm feeling rich

I dont have any story to say, but to try to make you feel sorry i also dont have anything. Just trying my luck lmao

Have a nice day y'all

Jeff nippard has a video where he ranks the best workout splits and he put FB 5x a week at i think s or a tier? For advanced lifters who need high frequency. Is that for people on gear or? If i do legs 5x in a row idk if i can recover even if i leave 2 RIR. Let alone full body

So for incline press i see most people doing them with almost flared elbows like on a t bar row, but i do them with my elbows tucked in touching my sides, is that too tucked in or am i good? On tutorials i see people doing them with a bit of flared elbows too like on a flat press

So i hear people saying they throw away contacts after water touches it while its in their eye but what? How does it work with rain or with sweat? I wear monthlys and when it rains i blink after water touches it. Is it different with monthlies then dailies or the same?

So i watches a few videos about how you grow 200 to 500 grams of muscle as a natural person after your beginner gains and training for 5+ years. Is that true? Because if it is training for 10 years to grow 2kg of lean muscle seems a bit idk

So skullcrushers are usually done overhead but wont this provide less growth since the tension is now the most when your muscle is contracted and not stretched? Like little tension at the bottom and most tension at the top, wont it be better doing them with your upper arms facing straight up or closer to your hips, so the tension is the most/more when your triceps are stretched?

Also wont your long head of the tricep be less stretched that way?

Ps skullcrushers hurts my right shoulder so i dont do them overhead

So for bilateral movements i know most people say wait 2 to 3 or 4 minutes, but when i do unilateral movements, and i switch sides after each one, like left side, then right side, is waiting 90 seconds enough for your nervous system? I read something like this

Thanks in advance

Our gym has no leg presses and removed the last 2 squat racks what do i do?

Edit: me and some other people are suggesting that they bring a leg press and a squat rack back and hopefully they will do it

So for strength training you do 1 to 3 sets with 1 to 2 RIR or failure this and that. But i want to be able to do a lot of pushups in a row, like 50+, how should i train for this. Should i do as many reps as possible with 3 min rest for 2 sets or do 5 x 10 pushups and 1 minute rest and then do 5x12 5x15 and lower the rest time? Or should i keep 3 minute rest? I dont know

I dont know how this is not 500 characters but yeah i gotta yap for a bit, i can do 9 in a row now if that matters

Thanks in advance

So i do ULR as my split and i also want to be able to do as many pushups as possible, do i just do AMRAP on pushups after my normal strength training for chest?

Thanks in advance
