At least highlight the most horrid and devilish portion of these insane workouts for us mate. It almost gets lost in that long list of work.
Watching that vid whilst enjoying my breaky and coffee here. That’s the only way to do it…

The crazy thing with the original super squats like @SvenG is running, is that the other work is just as or sometimes more brutal than the squats. The upper body doms on this 6 weeks is out of control.

Here’s my 21st Wedding Anniversary Breakfast-for-Dinner of Champions:
And yes, we used paper plates on our Christmas chargers to celebrate the occasion—we do it all fancy-like here at the SvenG house.

that is either a place mat or a table cloth. Both of those a dead fancy to an Aussie.

@simo74 - I had to ask my wife, but apparently a charger is a plate for your plate:
Yep—we do it fancy here!

Fridays are fast becoming the worst day of the week—that was super-tough!
Controlled failure on that last rep of bench press, but failure nonetheless—actually almost missed the 11th one there. Likewise on the BB curls: Almost missed the 9th this time, but I eventually completed a very messy rep before failing to hit the 10th.
In fact, I was so dead by the end of this workout that I couldn’t even do 25 unbroken crunches…
But we march on.

It sure was…. I had one. Chocolate brown with a white hardtop, Hemi 245 engine from memory. Made from steel, not like the plastic rubbish these days.
