Just got Paul Carter’s BBM, gave it a read last night. Was cool, definitely a different approach to training than I’m used too. May give it a try in the near future. And advice on the set-up in there you like the best? I’m not a huge fan of the lack frequency, but otherwise it’s got some interesting concepts. [/quote]
I liked the last base building method split be talks about in that section I think it went
Monday: bench, incline, dips
Tuesday: squat, dead, front squat or sldl
Thursday: OHP, upright rows, shrugs, triceps
Friday: I forget lol

On bench and some types of extension my left elbow gives a click/pop at the top and wanted to see if these would just provide short term relief

I’m still trying to figure out how to address my annoying elbow issue. The one that pretty much keeps me from making much progress benching… as in, I’ve pretty much just avoided benching because of it.
