bump =/

thanks man, im just trying to make the best out of a crappy situation :/

this is only for one workout on saturday

here's the problem, the gym near me has Lat Pulldown machine and assisted pull-up machine which I need for lats, but they dont have any weights How bad is it if I do 5X5 Heavy deadlifts and 4X5-7 heavy barbell rows in my home, then take 10-20 minutes to get to the gym and do 4x8-10 Lat...

Thanks guys I'm going to stick with front squats, and save up for a squat rack. I am 192lbs and 28% bodyfat, going to go on a 500 cal deficit and do cardio 5x a week, Eating less than 120g carbs, 60g fats and like 160-180g protein. As I'm cutting, should I not try to add extra weight to my...

I workout at home, have bought all the equipment [oly bars, bench, db's etc] However, rippetoes requires I do back squats. Can I do front squats instead, as I don't own a squat rack? Also, can I do rippetoes whilst cutting on a 500 cal deficit? Thanks

it's funny because i've found threads on this exact forum that contradict what you said, back squats use more hips and glutes especially below parallel, front squats until parallel kill your quads. Thats basically the summary of what 5+ threads on this forum has said.

Ok I'll do front squats as I heard they require the hips and waist less and involve the quads more

ok can I do front squats instead?

One last thing, do deads and squats make your waist bigger because they add muscle to the lower back? That I don't mind, what I fear is that they make my actual waist wider, like love handles wider etc, that'll look ridiculous on my crappy physique.

ok here's what Im going to do I'm going to cut down without deadlifts and squats, then clean bulk for say 5 months without them. Then cut down to around ~10% bodyfat. Then when I have a bit more muscle and I can clearly see what my waist is like without the 28% fat, I may start to deadlift and...

lmao we'll see then.
