P.S. Most often the feedback I get from guys following me on YouTube is they like the way I come up with variations like this and always find new ways to challenge even the most experienced trainee. Actually, I see it as a prerequisite of being a good strength coach. “Adaptation demands progression” is a key element of getting plateau-free results.
