Got a few questions:

1. For your biceps workout at home (Thursday), do you have any heavier DB's? 40 RP is a hell of a cardio workout! QUOTE]

Yea i have heaver, but they make my arms hurt I suppose I could go heavier

2. Do you feel as though you could squat more weight if you kept the SLDL's last in your workout? It doesn't matter where these two exercises fall in your workout, but IMO squats are the "king ding-a-ling" exercise for the day!

After doing squats, man I'm like done, I dont think I could do sldl after them.

3. You're a big guy. For hammer strength equipment or anything barbell for chest, do you feel more benefit doing upwards of 20 RP compared to doing 11-15 RP heavier? IME, anything with DB pressing is awesome at 15-20 RP. What are your thoughts on this thus far in your training?

You know I sorta flip flop on these, I think there are benifits to going higher reps. On the hammer mach it is very new to me but my plan is to get them to a 11-15 rp. I could probaly go heaver on the barbell chest work, but In the past when i try to start going heaver I start to get sloppy. This program sorta prevents that from happinig



Definately NOT a shit workout bro! You must take into account that you're already lifting a lot of weight, so you're at the point to where either a weight increase OR rep increase (even 1-2 more reps) is tremendous progress. Remember that if you "max out" with a weight and cannot increase your total amount of reps, that you need to DUMP it for another exercise.
Again thanks for your help
