I’m not sure if extra ME work will be as beneficial as you might think. You already max out 52 times per year in 2 different lifts each. DE days are not only for developing technical precision but also for preventing injury and building muscle and joint structure.
doubling the ME work would likely lead to some diminishing returns in not too long.

Oh shite I am an idiot, I meant to say RE, not ME

LOL! Ya I knew what you meant to say. Yesterday was DE bench, and went through the regular stuff: speed bench, tate presses…pulldowns, and finished up with some cleans, low weight, high reps concentrating on form, and explosiveness, did a quick 100m sprint at the end for the laugh!
And fuck no, as much as i’d love to lift heavy 4 times a week, and didn’t go for it!!

yeah doing some strongman shit is the funnest if you have all the cool toys. and if not you can macgiver that shit too.
For example, every gym has a sled or prowler, it just hidden… in the treadmill! serious.
I love going up to a treadmill, turn it off, OFF! power out. Then get on and grab the handles by the computer screen thingy. Start trying to walk on it and move the belt by your self. You will find that once you get it moving you can try and get a sprint on.
You get too good at moving the belt alone and want some hard glute work on your new prowler? Go grab a 5 or 10kg plate and lean it up against the back of the tread mill. It will lay on the belt and cause extra friction making the belt oodles harder to push.
We would make a chalk mark on the belt so you can see when it makes a full rotation. Then we would have little competitions to see who could get the most rotations in 3 minutes with a 15kg plate leaning on the back of the belt (one end on the floor and the other against the back roller on the belt). incline makes it easier so keep it flat.
That was hard shit. Amazing what you can do with an unplugged hamster wheel and a pissing contest.
And nothing on earth is as amusing as throwing shit. Why not get some good size rocks or even DB’s/KB’s and see how far you can shot put those bitches. your score is the combined total of left and right arm throws. DB’s roll less. We spent one DE day overhead throwing 3 heavy old microwaves across the parking lot. those shits were heavy.

Hmmm, might have to try that out today.
