Barbell rows are great for
thickness and for deadlift assistance.
Keep the sets high and the reps
low for the Olympic lifts.
You can clean 80% and above
everyday.
Don't feel guilty about short
workouts.
Treat your training time as a
sacred time. No texting. No talking about stuff not pertaining to lifting.
Dumbells are excellent for hypertrophy as are squeezing and controlled eccentrics.
Take time during the year (as a
powerlifter) to stay away from the squat, bench and deadlift. Perform
variants of those exercises such as the safety squat, close grip bench, and
change your deadlift stance from conventional to sumo, or sumo to
conventional.
Don't ever think that there is
a magic supplement to get you big and strong. Real food is best. And hard
work.
Study the OLD Timers such as
Draper, The York Gang, Gironda (way ahead of his time), Rick Wayne, Arthur
Jones, Rheo Blair, Jack Lalanne.
