Awesome things happen when the rules are broken

Sometimes when you don't follow the rules awesome things happen
That was the case with this last workout:
I had no set plan & decided to just do deadlifts & pull ups
This eventually left into seeing how much I could lift, it was fun & intense
The workout ended up like this:
1A) Deadlifts - 7 Heavy sets (each getting heavier but not maxing out) for 1-3 reps
1B) Weighted Pull Ups & Chins - 7 Heavy sets of 1-2 reps
3) Pull Ups - 1 x Max Reps
4) Chin Ups - 1 x Max Reps
5) Push Ups - 1 x Max Reps
6) Handstand Push Ups - 1 x Max Reps
The message that I wanna give you is that Sometimes you just gotta F the rules & lift heavy weight! have no structure, no rules, no set reps or rest, just lifting for the hell of it
It frees your mind from always having structure & revives your appetite for seeking more strength!
I wasn't following any set rules when doing this workout but it did end up having structure: it was a density workout
Workouts like these are powerful for building strength endurance, muscle density & mental toughness
I'll be experimenting with more of these workouts & know the results are gonna be freaky!
Give this a try & I know you will feel great afterwards!
