So that's 6 or so different fly variations, and then pressing, so again 6 or so different pressing variations. and then I have a few either spare (can be done with DBs encase everything is taken) or gut busting hard ones I save for lower tiers.
Granted I don't think its really needed to have this many. I personally like the variety. I have seen better progression this way. and for me mentally its much easier to challenge the log book when I have over a month to make sure I get stronger to take it on.
I will say at one point I made some of my best progress with only 3 shoulder MRs that I just hit over and over and over, but it lead to major burn out eventually.
Thanks for the reply and that's part of my reason for asking. I started with 5-6 bread and butter, now I'm up to about 8, but as I've been doing some tier 3 volume that only givens me a couple weeks between and most are compounds. I'm thinking I'm going to add more in like you to avoid burnout and start playing with isolation first!
