When it came to the V-Grips, I was concentrating 100% on muscle contraction, rather than just moving the weight like I usually do. I’m gonna keep doing that from now on… I’m sore as shit though now. I just wanna go to sleep.

Oh man, best back workout in a while. I got the idea for the pullups and the Iso-Dynamic Rows from Thib’s ‘You Don’t Know Jack About Your Back’
Thanks! Because, well damn. It friggin’ worked and felt insane!

I don’t get this. Your 1 rep max in the squat was 300 in September and now you’re doing 405 x 4 and we’re only half way through November. What can you do on a 12" box squat?

Honestly, I don’t know why it went up so fast but I promise I don’t bullshit anything on here and I don’t cheat on my lifts either. However, I don’t go ass to grass on squats, I go parallel with the floor. As for the box squats, I’ve never tried one before.
