I usually use this random as bit of equipment, not exactly sure what its called so hard for me to google but its like a rack set up for deadlifts, rows and shrugs. Its really good. Also occasionally use DBs and also the cable set up but never barbell (not for any particular reason)

Pretty poor workout really.
Diet really shit at the moment too. Too many end of year functions and lunches etc. That's always the problem with shredding for summer as opposed to shredding for a comp in the middle of the year. Supposed to be going to the races this arvo so could be another day involving beersies
-
Shit diet!!? You called?? ha ha bro I hear ya. This time of year is always harder with kai, add in some celebratory beers and epic sunshine and cutting gets cut!
Given you train the house down for like 95% of the year I reckon you can give yourself a pass.
But I'm not so sure about this missing squats though!
