For me it’s also comparing strength on lifts. My best weighted pull-up is 70 so 100 doesn’t seem that far off, but my best BB row is over 100lbs lower!
Gotta fix that strength imbalance man!

That’s a crapload of work. Nice job, my man!
You continue to be a freakin monster.
Lol at my 225x10 pr, you’re over here confidently planning 405x20! Unreal!
And 6 mile walks… I mean if I had an extra 90 minutes maybe…
Yeah, and I was pumped about my 165x20 set this morning!
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:
Seriously, though, the work ethic in here—squats and everything else—is incredible.
It’s insane isn’t it?
And there’s dudes coming on here wondering why they haven’t made progress in 7 years despite their “totally optimised” program.
In absolutely the best sense of the word, yes!

Hey man, what’s your reasoning for all the different tricep variations? Do you find good progress like that? Do you ever rotate them?
They used to be split up over the week. I changed to SuperSquats and decided to put them all together on the off days.
It’s only been a week.
No. But now that you point it out I need to rethink this.
Oh ok! I caught you early on then, I’ll be following, hoping it goes good! Don’t think too hard man, I’d leave it for a couple weeks, and reassess, then you could keep the same exercises and program different weight/rep/set schemes, could be with bands, different grip, etc… or a completely different exercise too
Edit: I suppose another idea would be doing small 3 week mesocycles. Say you hit triceps 2 times a week and want a push, overhead and push down variation all on the same workout. Make like 3 sets of rotations. So:
1.a) Close Grip Bench
B) Skullcrushers
C) Banded Pushdowns
2.a) JM Press
B) Cable overhead extensions
C) v bar pushdowns
3.a) rolling tricep extensions
B) db extensions overhead
C) 1 arm cable pushdowns
So then week 1-3 would be rotation 1. Week 4-6 would be rotation 2. Week 7-9 would be rotation 3. Then start back over and add a bit of weight to each exercise, or add more reps, or more sets.
Just an idea! Sorry, probably got carried away
