The "Look! Look at my cool workout!" thread

Planning my next training cycle, this one will be more consistent/straight-forward. I just call it a "deadlifts, dips+chins (chinups) cycle". Cutting out superfluous exercises and keeping it super simple. Just those with higher volume than I'm used to. Maybe a couple of quick accessory exercises at the end. Deadlifts on each of the two days will alternate between heavy (3-6 reps) and lighter (6-15 reps). Deadlifts reeeeally tax me hard so trying to manage that haha.

Sounds awesome, have you read David Groggins? He gives some good advice on chins and dips. The other thing to bear in mind is that bodyweight exercises like chins and dips seem generally to be tolerated at much higher volumes and frequency than, say, deadlifts.

No I haven't! Was looking for this Groggins fellow but you may have meant Goggins . Ahh yes definitely, even though those exercises feel pretty taxing they're in a different league to deadlifts.

The thing to do is probably one heavy deadlifting session and one optional one where you work with lighter weights for more reps, at a guess
