10/24 Upper Accessory
Blast strap push ups, 1 x 15, 1 x 10, and 1 x 8
Green bands push downs, 3 x 12
Military press with 53lb kettlebell, 3 x 6
Pull ups with blue band assistance, 3 x 10
All done in 30 minutes.
I wonder if anyone has ever looked at the affects of totally eliminating accessory work from their training routine. Would there be a significant drop in the amount someone can squat, bench and deadlift by just focusing on the major lifts and eliminating all accessory work. Sometimes I wonder if all this extra stuff has any impact whatsoever besides hypertrophy.

I hear you Steve. I have an opinion on that but it's way too long to type. See what works for you man.

yeah that suit is the old nxg material i told you about a few weeks ago.
i think the accessory work is about half and half. the lat work and secondary exercises i firmly believe have a direct benefit to the core lifts and things like pushdowns benefit through (like you said) hypertrophy and bloodflow to speed up recovery. that excludes abs though, they're just important.

10/26 ME BP
Fun was to be had in Hickory Friday night. Everyone hit a PR, Buddy hit 470 to the chest, Cheryl smoked 230 for an easy triple and the “Big Boy” hit 660 off a 3-board, but could have easily doubled it. Sorry, no video coverage had technical difficulties.
Warm up to 230 x 3 raw
Katana and monster mini bands doubled
3-board: 230 x 3, 260 x 3, 285 x 3
4-board: 305 x 3, 325 x 3
5-board: 345 x 3
No accessory work.
