I ran a version of this routine twice before: https://fit2fence.blogspot.com/search/label/40%20day%20program and https://fit2fence.blogspot.com/search/label/Easy%20Strength

I've had to alter the workout as I inured my knee. I think the volume of high bar squats was one of the contributing issues No squats or farmer's walks for a while

* The bench was unusually busy.
