    First time cut. Organizing

    hey bro, the best way to maintain your strength is to definitely ease into the cut. if you were eating 4k calories a day you definitely don't want to drop to 3k or under straight away. taper it down slowly, maybe 100 calories every 3-4 days until you're a couple hundred under you're maintenance...

    How do you KNOW you've had a good workout?

    destroying yourself isn't a sign of a good workout, i think its more of a sign for a bad NEXT workout lol, if you've progressed with more weight/sets/reps and successfully beat your last workout, you've had a good workout

    Who's had good results with higher reps?

    i don't think that its the actual high reps that are getting ppl hyooge and contributing to size gains, rather the extra volume they come with... i.e. 3x3 x 100kg bench press = 900kg volume vs 85kg 5x8 = 3400kg volume easier to get more overall volume/ increase workload using higher reps...

    5/3/1 boring but big questions

    barbell lunges maybe? I don't see that working very well though... you could do a variation of a deadlift on the squat day instead, RDL's maybe? I'd imagine your lower back would take a beating though...
