Question: An individual may state- "My diet consists of certain foods because my body reacts well to them."
How does one determine the effectiveness of a certain food? i.e. my main source of carbs is brown rice and oats. What if those are not the best for my goals? Just by switching one up I wouldn't know if anything had changed..
I think trial and error plays a big part in it. I would test out my lifts after eating brown rice, whole wheat pasta, and oatmeal. Ive come to the conclusion that oatmeal suits me best as my complex carb pre-workout. It might be different for you, however. It seems to be a "feel" thing in my opinion

Anyone know a good compound circuit training programme?
Looking to do 2 weeks of intense low rest time compounds with an emphasis on muscle stamina before my tournament
For a general strength/power workout, I'd do a circuit of:
Squat, deadlift, bulgarian split squats and dumbbell step ups, all for 4-5 reps at around 90% max, no rest in between exercises, then right after that move to upper body.
For upper body: Flat bench press, bent over rows, incline press, weighted chin ups and then weighted dips, all for 3-5 reps at around 90-95% max. You won't be moving alot of weight so be prepared to see a drop in numbers. Take about a 3-5 minute rest, then repeat the circuit, doing it either 2x or 3x through, depending on how you feel.

I wish there could be a hyberbolic chamber like in DBZ and i could train all day; and BAM, the next day, i come out looking like if i was chiseled to perfection by the Gods.
I'm seeing results, but damn, it's like i see an awesome progress 2-3weeks(a little increase in lifts and visually) and then the next weeks are just stalled, no progress.
If only i lifted earlier.

3-day Basketball tournament next week.
Sounds good mate, so no sets right? Just complete the circuit 3-4x.
Yeah I just feel it would be good to do maybe 2-3 days this week and next of muscle stamina to get me prepared, ive done a lot of cardio the past 3-4 weeks, nearly 4 days of balling up and down the %+*$%*% court. My strength 5x5 compound programme took a halt after I couldnt sustain enough time for recovery.
However this sounds good, ill do this this week and next to get a good kick up

Here's the thing though: if you have one week, you might be better off laying off weights. It's 3 days so you'll need to reserve as much energy as you can, and if if you go heavy prior you might find some performance losses. At the most, do it twice over the 1 week. That would give you ample recovery time, although I suggest either 1 to not even doing it. Of course, you could do it if you feel ready and you could very well feel a mental boost after the workouts, but if I were you I'd probably just stick to playing pickup games. No need to even practice shooting or ball handling, just pickup to get in the rhythm of running and offense.
