Some Lower Body Work - Deadlifts, SSB Pause Squats & Block Pulls

Primary Leg Workout
Fewer exercises, but higher number of sets and/or reps...I enjoyed this leg workout.
Log/DL Check In
I cannot remember the last time I competed in a local show and wasn't hitting the competition weights right from the start of training.
