I hv started making good progress by changing up programs, ig my RPE was way too high (maybe volume as well) and i couldn’t leave enough gas to actually recover between sessions

Thanks to the above guy who recommended BFS, i was browsing and found ‘GZCLP’ which is a very similar program, but it gives u ur training max and percentages so that u dont push urself too hard and overtrain, i had to strip back a ton of weight though, but in 4 weeks i definitely hv been progressing, especially on squat on OHP, i had to strip a ton more weight on bench and dead though, i haven’t still reached back to the weight i was doing pre switch, but i definitely have been progressing as my reps on AMRAP have been staying pretty constant despite the weight going up, i hv gained some little size as well

So yeah too high of an rpe and volume (i m not doing many isolation movements either, just the vanilla program (3 exercises per session) + couple exercises to target some weak spots, or as a prehab (facepulls, upper chest flies etc)), ig i got too sucked on internets ‘high intensity, 1 RIR, 15sets a week’ bullshit

Thanks for asking, hv a beautiful day :)

Thanks for ur info, i do change up isolation exercises regularly tho, i dont think there are any replacements but for the main lifts

Thanks a lot for your info, i m currently considering changing the program, but i will keep what u said in mind :)

Hm i (hv been) trying to add 2.5kg only, ig changing the program might work tbh

Yeah i hv been trying to add weight but always fail, i m thinking of doing a different program like the other guy suggested

I have been balancing all that, idk what the issue is maybe test or genetics? Program seems tried and tested

I couldn’t bench an empty bar, its not about stats its the fact i haven’t been progressing for months

I dont think i m body dysmorphic, i just am super concerned about why am i not progressing on my lifts for so long

Program is the coolcicada PPL I m definitely in a surplus tho i hv been gaining weight steadily, i m around 3 kgs up in the last 2 months Protein i m sure i get 100-120 gms on avg tho, i used to track my calories but i lost that habit because like i said i hv stopped enjoying the process much, but still i dont miss any opportunity to get some protien in hehe

I do PPL 6x, i used to love going to the gym thats why i do PPL the reddit one and currently the coolcicada one, however now it just seems like a chore, there should be atleast some progression, but when i get under the bar its as if i just dont have any strength, in fact, i m sure i m regressing a bit
