Favorite movement/exercise at the moment

Using dumbbells with a nice tempo and long ROM + pause can be a great alternative imo,. it’s a bit less comfortable but man are DB pullovers overlooked in terms of really isolating and hitting the target muscle .

Aye mate, I’ve done pullovers pretty much ever since I first started training (was one of the exercises shown in the chart that came with my first set of weights circa 1990 lol) & rate them. The machines would obviously isolate a tad more though & thus I’d love to try one.

That’s my poor mans way to feel the lat burn, hold it in the stretched position for as long as you can at failure gives my lats a massive pump every time.

Also, love & hate relationship with hyperextensions for lower back.
My gym have some kind of "bench", i can grab plates into my arms and do sets with them. Ussually end up with 2x20kg plates for 10 reps as topset.
Pump is insane, thats always last excercise on pull day, i cant even do bicep after that. Just some stretching but still, pump is there for next hour or so. Amazing and horrible at the same time.
