If I’ve been to your log? I’m in your log so often I should pay half the rent and do the cooking.
Oh, you guys would be a great team in the kitchen!
Yeah, Joe, you have PRs damn near every time I visit. You’re upset even though you STILL had one!

Well assistance lifts don’t really count for PR.
I mostly annoyed that I rushed through my warms up and didn’t get my self right before I tried the money set.
Out of curiosity what assistance exercises do you use for DL Snap.
The SPF world’s are going to be in Nashville in October and I am retardly considering lifting in it.

You can’t hit PR’s everytime. When you don’t, just call it recovery. I count prs in assistance stuff so there.
nice pulling.
Bench seems good too.
Joe here are things that helped me most with pulling
snatch grip deads.
pulling from a deficit
glute bridges or air humps
speed pulls
db swings or pull thrus.
the deficit or snatch grip - got me more power off the floor
I immediately felt a difference in locking out via glute activation from the air humps
speed work - just always seemed to keep the bar moving.
the swings - really hit the hamstrings- and enable the hips to pop
shit that did nothing for me
rack pulls
pulling sumo
good mornings
but everyone is different.

x2 - PR’s a PR. Just take it and run.
edit: I’d agree to share the cookin, but not hand it over completely. French meets South. I’m thinkin New Orleans Jambalaya spice.

You’re right about everyone being different. The three things that did nothing for you are the three thing that help me considerably. Although good mornings help more for squat. I’ve added snatch grips in though and love to hate them. It’s worth trying different things and giving them time to see what they do. It would be nice if everything worked the same for everyone but we all have different body structures, levers and sticking points. I guess that’s part of what makes it fun. Right?

I believe he can cook it, everything he cooks is good but as far as eating it…meh… 
Great work, Joe. We all have those days. The professionals have those days. No big deal. Hell, you have hit more PRs in the past couple of months than most people hit in a year!
If you didn’t have an off day every now and then, we would start to wonder whether or not you were human.

Well the bad was no PR on the money set. The good is I tied my best reps on it with way better form and if I had a spotter I’d have gone for the fifth rep. 255 went up like it was 240 so that felt good. I need to not get distracted and stay focused.

I eat spicy food all the time I’m just not a big fan of uber hot. You on the other hand think black pepper is hot.
For pulling conventional, I think that good mornings, weighted hypers, and deficit DLs top the list of the assistance work that gives me the most bang for my buck. Also, if I squat a lot, I can maintain my DL without training it. The converse, however, does not work for me.
Yet another PR here. I’m going to start keeping track of rep PRs when I return to the real training arena.
