    Jeff Nippard’s New Exercises

    @ray0174 I bought the first “Pure Bodybuilding” program from Jeff recently and it has a LOT of these “different” kind of exercises, many of them I had never seen before.

    Renaissance Periodization App Update

    @doks It's kind of hard to use that kind of metric if you've been lifting for a long time though. I've been lifting for about 22 years now and I just rarely ever get sore.
