That sounds very interesting. I've never done them with bands before, but these seem like good options:

Good work being done, as usual. ;)

For triceps, you should be able to continue doing the barbell tricep extensions if they work for you, but maybe rotate them with one or two other tricep focused...

Deloads are usually kind of anticlimactic for me. Looks like you had some fun with them though. I'm sure you're body will be primed and ready to hit the weights hard again now.

Yeah, that's some great volume. Arms must have been pumped at the end.
For some reason, I was not familiar with a lever row. Looks like a great deadlift assistance lift.

Great workouts man! That Deadlift and Bed Bug combo must have been a killer. Really good upper body session too. I love the variety in your workouts.

Nice pressing session there. 3x10's are one of my faves, and I don't really know why.

Congrats on the new home. It's for sure a lot of work, but I know you'll be happy once you're moved in. ...

Banded Bench Press
135 pounds + Lite Band (Orange) x 1 rep
First time maxing out with a Lite Band. This time I could tell that with the way I have the bands setup...

Cheers guys. That is great feedback! I actually have paused deadlifts planned for my next workout, lol. First time I've ever done them. I can definitely see how they would help with grip, even...

It probably can't continue forever, but it's a ton of fun for the moment. ;)

Yes, for sure grip strength is holding me back a little bit. I'm definitely easing on the pressure off the ground...

Energy was low. My workout drug out to nearly 2 hours because of pretty long rest periods.


Conventional Deadlift
365 pounds x 1 rep
Grip failed at lockout, but...

Box Squats
+ 4,305 = 134,835

Making progress is definitely more fun than the alternative. ;)

12 inch Box Squat

The low box squats are always a challenge for me because they're right at or just below the bottom of my normal...

Thank you sir!


Yeah, I can't take them too seriously, but they're fun to throw in here and there.

I'm 100% open to suggestions!
I have no doubt that my programming has a LOT of room for...

Yeah, I've been eyeing up the Rep 4000. Won't be getting a new rack anytime soon, but a man can dream.

Glad you like the Meadows Rows. Looks like you had a super solid workout.

Surprisingly, I have doms in my hamstrings today. I suppose it could be partially from the Candito Deadlifts, but I'd guess it's mostly from the gliding ham curls (good...

Yeah, I knew that if I was going to do my own programming of Conjugate I would need to understand the system reasonably well. I watched a lot of videos and read a lot of articles on it. The...

Spoto Press with a full ROM... I didn't know this was a thing. Tell me more... What is the goal/purpose of them?
How are you liking the exercise variety so far this year?

Controlled descent deads are great! Really good way to build up strength on that lift without needing a ton of weight on the bar.

I'm a bit disappointed that your most recent workout had a round...

READING about 20 rep squats makes me want to pass out, lmao.
Congrats on the PR on Chins. Must have felt good after struggling a little bit with the pressing.
