Really good movement. Relatively kind on your shoulders and as you’ve said, allows you to load.

Jord makes a good point. It’s not a place you want to be without a very good spotter if you fail, so think that through

[Rich Ellis]

Agree with the guys

Would there be scope to have a replacement for your pre-Bed meal? Steak. Eggs?

DB RDL will allow you to manipulate the line of pull

Joe makes a good point though, they’re not very practical if you’re strong

[Rich Ellis]

Putting tension on the bar to make a smooth pull us a good call

Retracting your shoulder blades though will put you at a mechanical disadvantage.

Push them “down”, yes, but pull them back, no.

If you’re able to progress, great!

As Jamie said, at some point, one day, you’ll get to a point where you struggle, but there’s no need to rush. If you can tolerate a surplus that allows you to progress, it’s a good place to be!

Rest day today gang. Got a leg session tomorrow to be ready for!!

[Rich Ellis]

I had a press session today. It’s not how I like to train, but taking my shoulders to failure just isn’t helping them out!

Machine press
Dip machine
Close grip decline press
Shallow incline DB press

3 Sets Of 8 on each, no fail points as yet

[Rich Ellis]

Think Clare has given the textbook answer

[Rich Ellis]

If you’re spread out enough I’m
Inclined to agree with James

Pick two, go after them, milk every ounce of progress out of them, then deload and start again with new movements

[Rich Ellis]

Just to note, your accessory work should reflect your performance needs, not necessarily what others do or what you’ve been doing for hypertrophy

It’s an incredibly simple process

Lift

Identify weak links

Appropriately select and implement accessory work/strategy to strengthen weakness

Lift

Identify new weak links

Etc etc….
