My 6-week trial with using the Halo Sport transcranial brain stimulation device is complete, and I'm working on my write-up for the experience. As training continues, I'm going to continue using bands for my warm-up and down sets for all of my training (excluding my top "AMRAP" sets). I've really liked the intentionality and speed it emphasizes for my lighter sets).
