what or who started this SGRP wave? thought we were all doing SG SLDL then I see everyone wants to do rack pulls instead.

they're pretty bad in a good way, body is feeling pretty fried. we ended up pulling off 4" blocks, much better than in the rack last time. glad i had straps, started out light and will progress.

DF for me as well. I use them primarily for upper back, so I don't see the point in doing them from the floor. Unless I'm not understanding correctly.

last week we pulled out of the rack but with the wide grip it got a bit close to a crushed finger. this week we elevated the plates on other plates.

This guy's 20rep max squat is not only higher than my 1rm, but it's also going up faster.

so sick.

you can always calculate a 20RM, but to have the ****ing balls to get through the entire set is something else entirely. imo, this is more impressive than high 1RM. and after your work sets? jesus....

So what's the rational behind 20rm sets... hypertrophy? Cardio endurance? You hate yourself?
