Welcome. You do some interesting lifts. Do you deadlift and bench?
Hey, I injured my back some time ago deadlifting, and it aggravates the old injury every time I've gone up in weight on the deadlift, I'd rather not take the risk anymore. As for bench press, my elbow tendinitis flares up every time I've tried. I've attempted Rip's pin fire chin ups, but nothing really works, and it's only during bench press this happens, not chin ups, press, nor dips, so I've elected to just replace them with weighted dips going forward. Not 100% optimal, but at least I can make progress on these without potential injuries holding me back.
Lateral raises are purely for vanity reasons, I want my lateral delts to develop a bit faster to give off a wider shoulder look. Ab wheel and leg raises to strengthen my core more, so my back and the old injury site is safer as I squat heavier. I know some of these things are not really in line with what rip teaches, but personally, they've worked for me.
