    3 x 8 or 5 x 5?

    Thanks jj, I've never actually looked at the Sheiko program... I'll have a gander at it now. Is it actually better to gradually add volume over a matter of weeks rather than doing lots of volume from the start? I didn't think it would make a difference as long as my strength was going up for my...

    3 x 8 or 5 x 5?

    Thanks bozodos. One can only take so long with a rep before it becomes a negative, I'll increase volume as well as adding a second or two on each rep. Best of both worlds.

    3 x 8 or 5 x 5?

    Do You Inform People When You see Them Lifting Wrong?

    I have only ever given advice once to a guy who actually asked for it while I was waiting for him to finish in the squat rack. Only thing I could suggest was for him to wear flat shoes (he had thick sole Nike's on), technique looked spot on from what I could tell but I'm no pro. I wouldn't...

    Do you ever have people stare at you while lifting

    That is sad... I've only ever seen 2 other guys BB OHP at my gym and one of the blokes does them with an EZ curl bar lol... I guess it's the same movement :S

    Do you ever have people stare at you while lifting

    I get stares during deadlifts and OHP. Never notice during bench and squats as my eyes are looking up as close to the roof as possible. I'll admit I usually a stare when someone is doing horrible form, I have to watch every rep for max lulz.
