If you don’t make the cut I will give you one of my other ebooks for free. GO!Throwback Thursday to summer 2015. A couple of things stand out. One, you have to work harder and harder for less and less as you progress in the iron game. This isn’t a bad thing, it just means you need to be smarter and more strategic as time goes on. What worked for you in the past probably won’t work for you now. Looking at this, I’m reminded of the fact that I have probably only gained a few pounds of muscle (if I’m lucky) since 2015. I have to admit, that realization can be discouraging. With that being said, my strength is significantly greater. I can bench at least 50 pounds more now, and that’s all that matters, amirite? Lastly, when you find good lighting take advantage of that shit...but keep this in mind: don’t compare yourself in good lighting with a pump to bad lighting just after a buffet. That’s not smart or accurate 👌If you *HATE* Bulgarian Split Squats, give this variation a try before you give up on them completely. I know, I know I’m not using the leg curl “trick” I always talk about 🤷♂️. Over the years I’ve had a bunch of clients struggle with traditional dumbbell (at the sides) loading. By using the goblet hold it can improve overall positioning and adds an anti-flexion component to the movement. The one downside would be how much weight you can handle. In a coincidence, the video is of my 3rd set and my form is starting to breakdown. I programmed this as part of a super set so 95lbs was more than enough weight. If you gave up on the BSS because it didn’t feel “right” give the goblet hold variation a try 👌It’s a good feeling to have your deadlifts done by 7am. I get asked a lot about waking up early. No, it’s not a requirement for “success” although a lot of people I would consider successful do wake up early. I think that is more of a correlation rather than causation. However, I have always been a morning person so for me to be as productive as possible, I have to wake up early. My ability to stay focused and do “deep work” goes down as the day goes on. The more I can get done early in the day, the better. You might be the complete opposite. I have worked on projects with people in the past who work until 3-4 in the morning but sleep in late. As long as the work gets done, that’s all that matters. 👌
