When Arnold was talking about how much he loved the pump-- I don't think he was talking about the pump induced by high rep trap bar deadlifts as a las movement + myo reps. This short hypertrophy cycle is kicking my ass, but hopefully we'll induce some quality muscle growth from it!

[Going from Squatting 3x a week, to squatting once a week during this short hypertrophy cycle has been really rough-- it feels like re-learning the squat each week! Not really, but it does feel sort of foreign-- since I'm used to practicing the movement so frequently throughout the week]
