Sometimes I like to just drop a little reminder that I post a lot of exercises on my Instragram page that don't always make it into the newsletter here.

With that in mind, I've got a bunch of cool stuff that you not have seen yet.

You don't need to have an Instragram account or be following me to watch them (though you should follow me :).

 

1. Horizontal Bands on Forearms Chin-Ups

This one puts continuous tension on the upper back horiziontally while you're working the lats vertically.

 

2. Swing Chin-Ups

This is a continuous-tension lat exercise that uses momentum to make the chin-up HARDER.

 

3. Leg Braced Squat to SLDL

This one hits the quads in isolation while alternating reps with a stiff-legged deadlift to hit the hamstrings and glutes.

 

4. Shin-Braced SLDL

I found this technique very useful for getting better hamstring activation on a Stiff-Legged Deadlift.

 

5. 350 Hits With 50 lb Sledgehammer

I did this last night...350 consecutive, non-stop strikes with a 50 lb hammer. It took 15 minutes to finish, video sped up 15X. Just brutally hard.

 

6. My Dog Eating a Pizza Crust

Comic relief from one of my fuzzbags.

Enjoy!
