pull 2 setup is fine mate, with 1 I’d say it’s too much… you’d be a wreck after including so many tough exercises such as bor and tbar. Potentially like you mentioned, switch a tbar for either an upper back or lat biased pulldown.

Agree with above, it is a struggle but there are a number of exercise that you can add (not as targeted but)…
Cobenhagen’s: side plank position with top leg placed on bench, done either as an isometric or reps. You can hit the different adductors by using either knee or ankle as the contact point with bench.
Sumo stance leg press and also deadlifts.
Cuffed abduction and dare I say is ‘kick backs’ BUT done more at a diagonal angle to better target the glute med. BUT I personally wouldn’t use the cuffs for adduction as they place a LOT of strain on medial knee ligaments (nearly ruined mine after one set). -
Very poor relatively… puts your hip into flexion, which is against the whole point of a hack squat. It also doesn’t allow for much knee flexion, once again, the whole point of a hack.

I second this, higher rep prior to loading allows you to gain a solid connection and then maintain it in the loading set (where normally you may lose it). Similar set ups work well for muscles like biceps and hamstrings, where there are a high potential for additional muscles or movement to take away from the primary muscle.

Seems like you have rehabbed the quad in very good time too! -
This is amazing news and I know I for one am incredibly excited to see how you enter and progress within the division! Seeing the progress you made over the past year shows you certainly wont be out of place and will allow you to bring that trademark conditioning too!
Huge congratulations on your showing on Wednesday also!
Onwards!! -
hope you’ll be rocking some short shorts with this new found leg detail! Be rude not to for the site…

Ask yourself the reverse question… I love pop tarts, so can I have them for all my carbs every meal, every day…

MemberNovember 2, 2019 at 8:17 am in reply to: Intra Workout EAA/Protein Requirements?Roughly you’d want 2.5-3gs leucine but need the other essentials to maximally stimulate it. So depending on the quality of your protein, that would usually be 20-25gs and with eaas, it would depend on the composition of your product.

And anyone who’s had both will agree…

Not going to get in a discussion about it but they’re definitely different!

Awkward start, seeing as you but cream of rice in the title and then use ground rice… different
