Submaximal paused deadlifts 475lbs

I always keep secondary deadlift day light & easy. Weight stays the same during the training block

The savage strength hammer attachment is a similar attachment as well (does the same thing) if people here don’t want to build the tranman hammer: https://savagestrengthequipment.com/products/hammer-bt-bar

Ryan x Carter Mount + Voltra makes the resistance profile of any machine top tier

Ryan x Carter Mount on a GMWD 3D hip abduction machine

The 3D hip abduction machines I’ve tried have been too easy at the beginning & too hard at the end ROM

This solves it. 180lbs in plates and 60lbs voltra + 140lbs inverse chains

This way of loading is also easier on the machine. I originally broke a weld on this machine using it with 300lbs (the stated max capacity)

It’s so hard to not contact Carter to get on another group buy, so I can have a 3rd or 4th Ryan x Carter mount

Also, here’s my referral link, so I can get as many beyond power points as Cullen: https://www.beyond-power.com/?referral\_code=ry9Z4MLWCyqrab1Y2

Optimal science based lateral raises

You can also use this machine for chest flys, rear delt flys, front raises, and unilateral pullovers

510lbs SSB squat for 2 at 188lbs Bodyweight

Garage gym preacher curls

I don’t have a dedicated preacher curl station, so this is what I use

Adduction machine full stack + 65lbs (helps my squat)

I’ve found this to have great carryover to my barbell squat. Adding a seatbelt also has made the machine feel much better

264lbs for 9 wide grip bench

Best my previous rep PR of this variation by 1 rep

It makes me want to AMRAP my normal bench, since I’m about 10lbs stronger with my regular grip

Who else likes doing direct abduction work?

3D hip abduction machine with weights + voltra added as an example

T-bar rows

Seeing if I should change anything on these. Noticed my wrist didn’t stay straight, so I’m wondering if I need to raise the height on the foot rest

Blood and guts lat based science

Partial reps and drop sets to failure, since people here tell me there’s no way I’m training as hard as I say I do

This set was after 8 sets of squats, 5 sets of bench, 2 sets of preacher curls, and 3 sets of good mornings

This is my 2nd and final set of pullovers for the day

Also did 3 sets of weighted sit ups, 2 sets of adductor machine, 2 sets of leg extensions, and 1 set of 3D hop abduction after this
