My point didn't concern chocolaty drinks, rather the "Father" of progressive resistance, Milos of Croton.
And regarding the steady generational decline of testosterone in men over the recent years, it could be assumed that during his period, his testosterone levels could be assumed to be astronomically much greater than the average man today, giving greater strength and muscle mass, making the feat of actually carrying a calf through infancy to full grown adulthood slightly possible, but thats just speculation and im just waffling.
Gidday Andy...
I completely agree with you... My above example assumes weight lifted by the same person with the same genetics limitations...
I should have framed my comment as " a body builder who progresses there bench press from 60kg to 100kg etc etc...."
my bad
Just take 100/140/180 as being a beggineer powerlifter
Train to your goals an what you want out of lifting not targets that people told you you need to be able to not call yourself a beginner anymore, that being said irrespective of what your goals are a strong foundation is needed
Thanks Scott. This has challenged me.How can you possibly ask that after what I just posted.?!?!?!?
Ok. lets take 2 100kg guys. Both 10%, both train exactly the same.
Guy 1 benches 80x10, squats 110 x10, and dealifts 145 x10
Guy 2 benches 150 x10, squat 240x10, dealifts 280x10
Which guys will be bigger?
Ok we are going down the wrong track with this when comparing 2 people. Different levers, muscle attachments and all that shit make it impossible to say the person a benches 100x10 and person B benches 130x10 so person B will be bigger.
The point is you have to look at the individual. If you are benching 100x10 and in 12 months time haven't progressed anywhere wether it's more time under tension, volume weights or what ever and are still lifting the same weight, no matter what any BB says they won't be any bigger.
BBs can go on and on about weight lifted doesn't matter but if you are not progressing in some way good luck getting any bigger.
This is where the 140/100/180 comes into it. If you can't lift these numbers it means you most likely have easily gains to be made in the max strength department and this will lead to quick muscle gains. After that point if you want focus on progressing in other areas.
Now that is some sweet bro-science right there lol

If you are going to test your strength with a 1RM you would want to know what you're doing.
I personally don't see the need if one is progressing on their normal template
