DampRid makes some "moisture absorbers" - I've used both the tubs and hang-able packs in a utility shed and they work really well. I highly doubt it will be an issue, but I'd give these a shot and...

You'll definitely want a couple ceiling fans, which you'll want to hang with the 6"-8" arm they come with; if you flush mount them, they won't move air well.

Wall racks for bars. Shelving for...

Regarding the equipment, looks like you have the basics covered. For additions, I'd add a bench that has a leg extension/leg curl/preacher curl (if you can't add one to yours), and a cable...

I'm running a progressive overload program and do pulls 3 days a week. I don't really think there's enough variation between the two to program them both, and doing both wouldn't provide much...

I initially started rowing (years ago) when I only had dumbbells. Once I picked up a barbell and got more serious about lifting I switched to a straight bar. It's easy to notice the potential...

Wow.
No.

Huge nocebo with back injuries there.
Keep that bull**** to your self.

We don't need new people here scared to do anything.[/QUOTE]

This is definitely not a "nocebo" or...

I was wondering about the lock out too; when I watched the video my first thought (just being honest, not meant to be offensive) was those aren't true reps but for the last one, but given your...

Look into stiff legged deadlifts; this will focus primarily on your hamstrings, core, and lower back.

The well established programs include standard bent over BB row. IMO it's pretty easy to injure your lower back due to trying to progress too much and compromising form. I've programmed incline DB...

As far as 1 goes, I think your 4 points are a good start. You also want your heels down and try to think about/focus on your core when pressing.

For 2, I do BB bench and have added DB floor...

Don't know what you took as a pre-workout, but it's extremely unlikely to be the cause of what your experiencing given you've stopped taking it for a decent duration. If you took a pre-workout that...

Couldn't agree with this more. Cut the hack squats and do the real thing; it will help a lot more with core stability. Machines can be useful if you want to target certain areas, but they often end...

I wouldn't be concerned with degradation; as long as it's sealed (which it should be) it should be fine. Intuitively, I would think a tub would stand up better than a bag, but in either case you...

What are your thoughts on moving heavy ("100%") days for accessories to medium (90%) days for compounds? I'm running a modified All-Pros Push Pull 6 days a week, so for example

M - 100% Squat,...

Ephedra and caffeine don't accumulate in your system like, say, creatine, and should be taken pre-workout. Taking ephedra half as much twice a day will theoretically just produce two less intense...

"Research shows that [loading] can effectively boost creatine stores by 10–40%" (https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/creatine-loading-phase#what-it-is)

Considering creatine is dirt cheap (though...

Those Pepin dumbbells look interesting. I've never seen and am not a fan of the "screws" (threaded post) going into the handle; seems it would make loading more difficult than the standard style with...

I'm not so naive to believe you're on these forms and have never done a squat, but I'll entertain your response. Why?

Why don't you just close your eyes? They're not really necessary except when racking (and maybe unracking/getting into position/stance)...

Protein and fats are too low - you should be shooting for ~150g protein and 50g fat. Swap out 200 of the carb calories for 2 protein shakes throughout the day and you'll be in much better shape.
