Just an update. Earlier I mentioned I've done Strength 1 and Hyper 1. Right now I've been doing Strength 2 for about 4 weeks (probably going to switch it up to hyper 2 soon). Last Thurs I crushed my old Deadlift
PR of 365 and pulled 405 with good form w/o any sort of straps or belt. I haven't tested against my squat
PR lately, but my workout weight has gone up significantly. The rack DLs and quarter squats really help prepare the body for the heavier weight.
I've also dropped a couple pounds during this whole set of workouts. Losing weight isn't a goal, but between the intensity of the workouts and basketball a couple times/week I've lost about 5lbs (which mostly looks to be BF since I'm much more vascular now)...down from 200lbs.
So yeah, I highly recommend NROL
