Weightroom @sh.itjust.works plankton @programming.dev LiftManual is a solid reference
I use it as a quick reference when I'm at the gym and having doubts about my form.
What resources do you use?

Have a question about training, recovery, programming, or diet? This is the place to ask
No question is too basic or too advanced. Whether you’re new to strength training or a seasoned lifter troubleshooting sticking points, ask away.
Folks feel free to jump in with answers too

Weightroom @sh.itjust.works Pencilnoob @lemmy.world Milestone!
I have managed to maintain a low bar squat 4x4 at 1.5x my bodyweight for the last five sessions! This is the longest I've held this weight without dropping off or getting hurt.
This time, I'm doing everything right:
- good sleep
- lots of healthy food (caloric surplus)
- enough protein
- squatting 1-2x a week (I need a longer recovery)
I have a goal for the rest of the year. Right now, my squat+bench+deadlift working weight total is 650. I really want to get my working weight total to over 750 by December!
I'll keep posting here with updates!
Right now I weigh in at 150lb, up from about 145lb when I started lifting heavy again this time last year. All the veggies, fiber, and protein has really gotten me stronger with more visible muscles, and only a small increase to my waist.
