Ha ha, been listening to Louie again 
Guess itās for stabilisers as the bar wobbles like fuck. If they had one on Amazon Iād order one to have a go and return it if I didnāt get us out of it.

Have looked at the prices of Rogue kit, Iām even more happy with what Iām paying to use the gym.
Beasted myself again this evening. Gonna have a couple of days off now, I need it.

You got me! But there are a lot of good ideas come out of that gym and Iād love to try that bar.
You canāt argue with the results coming out of Westside. But for the love of God canāt Louie just shut the fuck up 
Ha, I like listening to him. He says the same thing over and over and basically rambles on about stuff and loses the point he was originally trying to make. I like that 
He does have about 3 or 4 ideas which he finds ever increasing ways to describe. I get it, just get on with it and quit yabbering on 
I think thatās what I like about him lol
Iām drawn to and more interested in his methods than most others and itās all about keeping an interest for me as well.
I still havenāt got back into the swing of things again and keep meaning to make time.
Heās very successful in what he does. Eventually heāll get in a rut and another gym will overtake them and so on etc.
If I wanted to max out on 1RM poundage then Iād follow him to the letter.
They also do a lot of high rep work on their weaknesses but yeah itās all for the goal of a single rep.
Anyway, Iāll make more of an effort this week on Friday.
That canāt be real, can it? 
It is if you want it to be

I managed 5 chin ups today. Would I be better switching to e.g. 3 sets of 4 with 1 minute (?) rest rather than decreasing the rest time as Iāve been doing?
If your max is 5 then probably sets of 2-3 reps would be best.
As a test, turn your hands the other way, so back of hands facing you, and see how many pull ups you can do?
1 probably 
Iāll try when back at house. Why? Should rest be longer for chin ups compared with push ups?
Yep 1 pull up vs 5 chins is normal unless your upper back is particularly strong vs your last.
Yes longer rest vs push ups. Id start with 2 mins or 1.5 if youāre able to make about 5 sets of 3 at that level of rest between sets.
3! Arms at same width but palms away, that right?
Last time I was working on chin ups I struggled to do 1 pull up even when I could do 6 chin ups!a
Why do you think that is?
Think your overall upper body strength has improved so itās translating to different movements.
Try 4 sets of 3 with 2 mins rest?
Yep, go for it.
