you mix a little back after a constricting chest workout? interesting, i used to do this many moons ago. people thought I was weird for doing it.

I do back every day in the gym. Vertical pull Lower day, horizontal pull upper day, Iike the opposing muscle idea

i concur. but you have to be in good balance to do so as well, wouldn't you agree?

Balance? As far as physically able to push and pull upper same-day?

Balance? As far as physically able to push and pull upper same-day?

yes, but more like contracting versus constricting, convex vs. concave, etc.

Good job brother!

I cannot deadlift and squat in the same workout. I did it one time and passed out. It could have been the weights I was throwing around though. I deadlifted 585 for 10 then as soon as I recovered I walked over and squatted 675 for 4. I racked it and started getting a little wobbly, so I laid down on the bench. As soon as I went horizontal the lights went out. My training partner was trying to wake me up and he said all I kept mumbling was, "Leave me alone. If I die, I die." This was in Afghanistan 2004. I pinned 100 mg of test suspension every day during that deployment except the days I did not come back inside the wire. I was young and dumb.

Yeah that would suck... Dynamic Effort days its not bad 50-60% plus chains or bands. Honestly thinking about the last year, I have done both same day quite a bit. Heavy for me but no where near your weights.
