Anellos Brutal Westside Conjugation
#1
Possibly Complete New Program HAH!!

Been working on this for a while and it's in the testing phases. 

This is a combination of Westside Barbell Conjugate and Vince Anello's system's - Written by Stoned Yano - compiled by AI 

Any lift set or rep scheme can be swapped out to suit a lifters needs , desires or weak points , that's the beauty of conjugate.

Based off the variation I used to train. 

Live, Learn, Pass On
