Thanks for the post. I've watch all his videos. Some good info in his vids

Some quick stats. More work to be done. Sample size in days=186 01/05/2015 to 09/22/2015 % / # How often does the market break higher than yesterday's high? 55.38 / 103 How often does the market...

Essentially the goal is simplicity. I'm not necessarily committed to keeping my current style. The PDH/L to me aren't tricky to define at all. There's even indicator that plots it for you lol. It to me is the most objective levels to trade or trade around. I'm looking initially just to do a...

This is more of a question specifically to @NoDoji but I can't PM her so I figured I'd just start a thread and see what happens. Essentially, I am looking to do a "study" of sorts around yesterday's high/low ONLY (for now). I am looking to trade only around those two points for the time being...

Very cool. I know HST very well also. All similar stuff. Intensity vs 90 minute Arnold volume sessions lol. How you train is most likely exactly how I'd train you...not that that means anything lol. Tabatas are cool if you're pressed for time also. I'll do tabata hill sprints every now and...

Yes, the pump is irrelevant.

Exactly right whatever works/makes you comfortable that you actually enjoy. Just track your progress and improve. I superset for times sake and I just don't like resting a whole lot. Cranks up the intensity a bit for me. There's really no other benefit in terms of muscle growth to supersetting...

So if I super set dips w chins wearing a 50# vest I typically get something like 7,4,3 or 7,4,2. Somewhere btw 11-15 total reps per exercise in that scheme. I've also changed my training to only increase weight or speed on the treadmill each month vs weekly. It's allowed me to almost "own" the...

Yes I suppose you're right. He was just so knowledgable that a response like that just kind of threw me. But yea, how else would a scientist respond? I actually changed my whole training around when I was in his class. He commended me for trying it out vs just "believing" him. It definitely...

Glad to hear you're pretty much pain free and also that you understand your limitations. In regards to stretching I don't necessarily statically stretch pre workout that would be more post workout if I had a goal of increasing my flexibility. Preworkout would be more of the foam rolling type...

Dr. Otto was a really smart guy. Very dogmatic with the whole one set to failure thing though which I didn't really care for. Many of his responses in class to questions regarding one set to failure/shouldn't you do more were, "what's the point?"

I certainly don't agree with that. Trying to run when you're super tight is far more damaging then stretching, even cold. As far as mobility moreso than a static stretch does wonders for me. Doing a back squat with the inability to properly externally rotate the leg at the hip joint will...

Robert Otto was my professor lol. Pretty sure they worked together.

How much flexibility and mobility work were you doing?

That's a great question lol. Working backwards from the amount of time you're looking to spend in the gym is probably the easiest way to answer that. There's a relatively negative correlation between duration/intensity of exercise. If you're pressed for time go hard, if you have some more time...

Oh of course. The biggest thing is really to have fun and enjoy what you're doing/eating with regards to your health and fitness plan. You won't stick to any strategy if it's pulling teeth. Me personally, it all works. I've done one set to failure type training, I've done heavy volume training...

Much like trading there is more than one way to skin a cat. It all works. The real key is progression/progressive overload. If it's slow and methodical so be it. Stick to that tempo and progressively overload the muscle and get better with it over time. You can do this via volume, weight...

Where at TL? I'm not seeing it anywhere. Edit: found it at BMT but not TL

Wyckoff would have had a nice day today lol.

Personally after being out all night with good friends and family having some cocktails "f" shake shack give me some White Castle hahahaha.
