ok figured out how to use YouTube, it was surprisingly easy, thanks M...
from today's last set of speed squats;


I know you meant to showcase your squat, but what I noticed was how wide your lats are.. Great job all around!

Great lifts bro! I’m about to expirement with bands on some leg movements, better, more natural resistance curve and hoping it saves my knees a bit

was my 1st go with them.
ordered some pins for both the squat rack and deadlift platform so i can incorporate the bands in some bench/deadlift training sessions.

Make sure you perform reverse band lifts. If you run the bands from the bottom up it'll beat you up fast. Bands are not a greater form of natural resistance because it's not linear increase or decrease in weight... it's exponential. Chains are more natural because they are a linear increase which is why it's easier to train with chains for extended periods of time (b/c it doesn't beat up the body nearly as badly).

Listen to your coach!!! :32 (18):

lol i do i follow everything he says to a T man, but not training delts is a hard pill to swallow, so, i just pretty much put some blood in them without frying them because i know i have floor press tomorrow.
