my shoulder flexibility for squatting sounds identical to yours.

A good 5mins+ of work with the plastic bar and just getting into the squat position under a bar and holding is required before I can squat.

Appears that way :biggrin:, although there is a method to the madness. Taking a little inspiration from the Lilliebridge method. I need/want to get bigger in order to get stronger. High reps and high volume should see to that. Going to lose a bit of strength as I'm not going heavy at the moment (or even squatting/deadlifting at all), although I see it somewhat as 2 steps back now, 10 steps forward in the future.
Fresh stretch marks on lats. Seems 10X10 lat pulldowns are pretty effective!

Pretty tough. 60seconds between sets. Tricep pump was ridiculous.

10*10, low rest time is absolutely crazy difficult.

It's really humbling. It's such a light weight that feels far too easy on the first few sets, it's deceptively difficult though.

Pumps are crazy.
DOMS are crazy.

Plan to keep doing it, just fancied lifting some actual weight. Had planned the 5*10 bench to be 10*10 but wasn't feeling it and had to dash.
