Yeah, I mean if you can make a part of you stronger with minimal energy expended, why not? __________________

Dude, Don Larkin pulled 500+ when he was 61 and 160 or so, quit being a fucking girl. __________________

How many consecutive weeks in a row would you suggest trying to up your 1 rep max before taking a week "off" for volume and a cns rest?

Nice writeup carnal, glad to see you back in action. I switched the the Kostja slump as well, and it helped tremendously. How often did you pull during this?

Good write up CS..
One thing that I noticed over the years....load is the single biggest factor to getting stronger and bigger....period.....other variable can make differences but load is the end all.....so if you want to lift more....start using heavier loads.......singles, doubles, and maybe some triples....long rest periods......
I have noticed higher frequency, shorter rest periods, and other such things often improve efficiency in an exercise or general GPP but dont have as much carryover to raw strength as just heavyass, no holding back, struggling for that rep as though you're about to pass out attempt.....granted we all have limits and perhaps it's smart to leave a smidge in the tank to avoid injuries...
