  • Training Recap, 5-2-23

    Last weeked I had a pretty good week in the gym, hitting a squat variation PR on my ME day and felt altogether good during the training week. Since then, not so much… No sweat at all, training isn’t linear and I’ve wound up doing some variations I’m not really used to or have experience…

  • Conjugate, How I Westside on the East Coast: DE Upper

    I’ll give this post a more interesting start than the last one: IT’S TIME TO TALK ABOUT MAXING OUT YOUR BENCH PRESS!!!!!!! There, did that get your attention? Just like my other post I’m starting with the disclaimer that I’m not a competitive powerlifter, I have competed in strongman, and I lift raw. I MAY…

    If you’re reading this, or anything online for that matter, it helps to know who the author is… Right??? I’ll make it simple, you can find me on Reddit as BiteyMax22 but if you’re reading this you may want to go to my Instagram at BiteyMax_Strength. I’m not a fitness professional but I’m also not…
