With my focus on strength and olympic lifting, I have eliminated isolation exercises and am focused on lifts that have more bang for the buck. I am also paying less attention to time in between sets with these workouts to focus more on total weight lifted.
The one adjustment that I will probably make going forward is to add elevated feet mason twists. The reason being that all of my exercises have a straight forward or up and down motion. I read that the majority of back injuries occur while twisting. I don’t have back problems but adding an exercise that proactively addresses this potential problem may be a good idea.
At the end of the day it doesn’t really matter since the most important thing is that I get after it every day. Everything will be fine in the end.
