I can't increase my DB row weight any longer because I just ran out of dumbbells. So that's bad, and good!
Had to deload my Lat Pulldown weight because I was regressing somewhat and didn't reach the rep goals. Also thought I had to deload my bench press but it actually looks like just keeping the TM constant for another cycle might do the trick.
I just checked my logs and there was more progress than I remembered over the last few months.
You can use resistance bands or chains to add even more weight to your dumbbells!
On one hand, I would love to have a job where I'm more active. But on the other hand, I don't want a manual labor job that's going to break my body or impact my training. It would be nice to have the best of both worlds.
I recently tried Andy Galpin's "Sugarcane" interval workout as was described on Huberman's podcast...

I did it on a rower, the first 2 minutes I did 630 meters, then the second interval was 2:20, then I did manage to beat the second interval distance in the third interval but just barely.
It was more fun than regular interval training.
