What are heavy ass lifts for you?

Depends on the lift.

Bench, Squat and Deadlift?

I still bench. 285 for 8 currently working up to 315. I gave up squatting and deadlift due to a disc issue in my back so I do leg presses and hack squats instead.

I only do one or two sets though in this style of training though. Not including warm up sets.

Then how do you get your volume in? With Machines?

I don’t get volume in, this is a low volume style of training. Workouts take like 20 mins total.

Damn that is heavy 👀

I’ve been doing kettlebell swings for a while now and that fixed any back issues I had. Maybe it works for you too.

I have an actual disc herniation from a snowboard accident 10 years ago, so nothing really helps (tried everything) but it’s manageable.
