Great thread

I will sometimes do "Suitcase Deads" (AKA one arm deads) as something different once in a while.

[Mark Limbaga]

since we're at it, why don't we also make a list of weak link/sticking point exercises so the thread gets more specific, especialy those who are new to the game.

i should try out some bench assists cause they're really lagging behind my deads and squats
