- + Percentage is based off of max close stance low box yoke bar squat from previous phase.
195 10x2 with 2 chains per side. I adhered very strictly to the rest period rules this week.
- Good mornings with Marrs Bar (like the SS Yoke Bar)
- 5 sets of 5 with mini band pulling forward
This is my first time using the Marrs Bar (ha wow it’s almost like I named it). I really liked doing good mornings with this however, since the bar is mid-back it was more low back than upper back. For me personally, I like doing good mornings with the yoke bar because I need the upper back work too. I went up to a plate and a quarter but ended up backing it down for the last 2 sets so I could actually feel it in my hamstrings.
- 45 Degree Back Raises super-set with Banded Good Mornings
- 4 sets of 20 reps
This is a nice and semi-vomity superset.
- Lying Leg Curl with Chains
- + one set to get an idea what weight to use. Only one chain will be needed to get the machine working right. Find a weight you can do 12-15 reps with and do one set to failure with 20 partial reps out of the bottom.
