Kelei, any chance you might share a bit of your philosophy behind this workout. Is the rest-pause more about getting full recruitment in more of the reps you do? Be interested to hear your take,...
Did Back and Biceps tonight. a Little more work than usual because I think I'm one of those guys that has done more pressing and I want to balance things out. And I'm doing quite a bit of rest-pause....
