Beginner gains as the best gains you’ll ever get is bullshit.
If that’s the best you’ve gotten obviously you haven’t trained well enough over a long enough time frame.
Years.
The longer you consistently train, the stronger you feel, the leaner you naturally are, and how strong you feel is a solid metric for how strong you truly are.
When in doubt take a moderate load and do volume into the stratosphere.
That builds you up.
Every man would be built as nature intended walking 8-10 miles and doing 100-250 chin ups each day.
Bunch of lean & mean motherfuckers walking the earth on that program.
700 pullups and 70 miles on foot a week will keep you from being fat regardless of what you eat.
Working in the heat can be contest prep.
I like the changes I’m seeing in the mirror.
Persistence & Tenacity
