HEAVY RDL. You need to learn to unrack without walking out the weight. Here’s how you do it. Feet do not move

Most people have under trained triceps. Here is a great exercise to add after your strength work. Tricep Roll Up- hybrid pullover into a Tricep extension. Allows you to use more weight that skull crushers and it doesn’t bother the elbows

I believe in heavy single arm overhead presses as a primary strength exercise. A limiting factor is your ability to pick the DB up to max out with it. For that reason I created the Swole Press
