I went to NYSC with Dave and followed his routine for the day. I haven’t done this much isolation work since college, but I was able to set a PR with weighted pulls (84% BW @ 185lb) since they have a much nicer weight belt than I do. I also learned that eating grapefruit will thin out the waist and bulk up the chest. Thanks Dave!

UPDATE: Those weighted pulls still bruised the hell out of my tiny little hips. I guess that belt wasn’t much better than mine. Looking into the Ironmind belt, which I’ve heard good things about.
