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.
