CT’s Superhero workout is damn solid…

I remember when T-Nation did a whole series on it where the readers applied to the program and if you got accepted, you got one-on-one coaching from the top coaches here on the site, but the deal was you had to submit pics and document your progress on the forums…

In the end only one person followed through with it all, as the rest couldn’t hack it and gave lame excuses for not being able to see it through…

It is pretty tough so far, the 100 rep lat raise has me walking around for like 5 minutes just grabbing my elbows thinking…this is worth it.
