Israetel's videos are good. The few he did ripping LiverKing a new one was hysterical. He's not only super smart, but I really like his extremely dry sense of humor. lmao. He's also a good communicator...which SO. FUCKING. MANY. guys in the workout world aren't.

But holy balls...the amount of gear he's on is disturbing. Good grief.

I think he's cutting back to TRT type levels and just running test.

He's abandoned the chase for a Pro Card for now since RP has blown up and required more of his time.

As for my own training, it's been pretty simple, yet consistent, for the last several months.

Several days a week, I'll do one extended set of heels elevated, knees-over-toes style (Goblet) Squats.

For upper body, I use a protocol I came up with I call "RPTS" - rest pause tri-sets. Simply put, it's a tri-set of an exercise where two higher rep sets sandwich a lower rep set. It could be as little as one rep or quite a few...the idea is to be able to do harder / heavier / more difficult / etc work, yet extended it out across much more volume - both in a single set (round), as well as in total. Doing this with weighted Pushups, extended range Pike Pushups, Chins, etc.

(I'm in a bit of a "backoff" / deload period now, but to give you an idea, when I'm going all in with it, this method has me doing a good 350-375 Chins in a week.)

Then I ruck six mornings per week.

Some other odds & ends, but that's the 80/20 of it.
