Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

[Spliff]

I've been advocating this shyt for years.

especially the deadlifting after squats....

This is the prime routine, for the alpha male on the go / pressed for time...

Ya I agree with the fullbody approach you're talking about. What I did was more like a UD2 power day tho. Definitely not for those pressed for time

Maybe its cause I high bar squat in oly shoes now, thus less low back stress, but last time I deadlifted after squats my low back was limiting the poundage compared to a deadlift-focused sessions. Either way I think I'm going to toy with a full body approach next bulk cycle. Been gravitating towards high frequency-low volume lately.

I found a study that showed chin-ups to be more effective for abs than any direct ab exercise. Trying to relocate it. In my experience these past few weeks that's been true. Abs look brick as hell

More noticeable with chins

Luckily during my flabby and sick phase where I was eating too much and not working out, I was working a retail job that involved a lot of lifting and twisting and moving heavy totes so over the years my abs developed nicely even though the rest of my body didn't (shoulders developed too I guess).

Once I shred the fat away to expose my abs they were round and protruding and ok size wise. So I don't worry too much about abs anymore, just do a set of balance ball crunches here and there. But its nice to know that all my chins are helping as well since sometimes I wonder if I neglect them now

Yeah. if you position you legs forward a little and reduce lower body swing while doing chin or pull ups. it hits the core.
