Haaaa, I hear ya bro. But at our age ego lifting leads to injury. Train smarter not harder, words I live by now. I知 no stranger to stopping or backing off programmed weights if I知 not feeling right. It has definitely saved me multiple times. I値l ego lift the shit out of the gym if I知 feeling tip top, but if I知 healing or nursing an injury....no way.
Rmtt....I forgot to ask/mention Jefferson DLs. Are you familiar with this movement? They are another favorite of mine, kind of a combo between a DL and a Squat....sort of. They are a bit awkward until you get the technique down. But I will say they have definitely helped both my DL and Squat!
Example....today I did 10,10 (5 reps each side).6,6,6(3reps each side)4,4 (2reps each side) up to a finishing weight of 400. I will do these every few weeks as a variation. Curious your thoughts.
