Slow controlled reps, negatives and short rest between some sets. Our training is sounding very similar. I need to make a deadlift platform so I can use heavy bands. I can’t use the bigger bands because I use dbs as anchors.
NH, that’s right for now, training wise. It feels good, and it’s definitely a different ‘mind set’ for those sets.
I’m still doing heavy 3-6’s for at least one lift every session; that helps
Band wise, I wrap it around, or loop it over the bar, then stand on it=better than nothing.

Yup, we get it (like this) once in awhile; mountains more often of course.
I was tempted to shovel our front walk, for a little exercise, but our HOA guys beat me to it.
Imagine my disappointment.
