Hey Dave,
How many reps are you doing of each exercise in the Bear? Just one? If so, that is not what a complex is supposed to be and isn’t really conditioning. You’d typically do each movement for 4-8 reps and move onto the next without putting the bar down, so something like 20-30 reps…THEN you rest a few minutes, repeat for like 4-6 rounds.

My 5th set of 10 reps for the DL last week, I was gased at this stage.

Traded lunges for split squats and replaced the complex with loaded carries . Two super excercises.
After some thought I’ve decided I’m going for fucking broke in this fat loss. I will aim for 170 and see what happens when I get there.
In 183 now so if I average 1 lbs weekly it’ll be 3 more months, probably 4.
Dieting is fucking bullshit but I need to do it.

Your sled drag is extremely upperback dominant. That may be what you’re going for, but I just wanted to point that at.
