## General principles that work for me
- Frequency-2 programs (both in effectiveness and in perceived effort).
- Heavy weight stimulus when cutting to prevent muscle loss.
- Cardio: un poco de to ([[📖 Exercised Why Something We Never Evolved to Do Is Healthy and Rewarding#How much exercise and of what type?]]).
- Where you look has a huge impact on your form, particularly in deadlifts and squats (aim to have neutral neck position wrt your spine).
## FAQ
- Diff deadlift and romanian deadlift: the romanian has less ROM and knees only flex a littleROM and knees only flex a little.
- Diff triceps and chest dips: in triceps you try to keep the body as uptight as possible. Other than that, the movement, grip width, etc is the same.
