Really decent lower body session. Taking heavy conventional deadlifts out of this workout and putting them into upper body was definitely the right thing to do. We were beginning to dread training legs knowing we’d have squats followed by heavy deads but now we can focus 100% on squats which is good now the weight is starting to creep up again.
I was posing in the changing room after the above session, having a wee flex and it was only when I got home and looked at the picture that I saw the crazy quad pump going on! Booty was popping nicely too of course…
