The other exercises Joe Defranco recommends I can't really do in my gym, such as sled drags. The glute hamm raises are nice, I don't have access to a machine so the way of doing them without one never really occured to me until I started this routine. They definetly blast my hamstrings. I would perfer not to do bulgarian split squats twice a week though. Because DeFranco recommends this under a unilateral lower body movement I think I am going to switch one of them to a single leg squat or single leg RDL. Other than that everything seems to be good.
EDIT: one last complaint: I miss deadlifting.

Good to see your enjoying WS4SB, I think there are plenty of movements to choose from so you don't have to double up.
I would definitely replace one of the glute hamm raise with RDL's or pullthroughs. and if you can do BSS then theres no reason u cant lunge or do a step up.
The beauty of the template is that there is plenty of scope to find what works best and change things around as necessary without changing the intent of the program.
Enjoy and welcome to the boards
