    Are Trap Bar Deadlifts the way to go?

    Are Trap Bar Deadlifts the way to go?

    "However, too much “normal” strength training will build a lot of muscle in places that don’t help me as a hunter. It’s great to have big biceps and a studly chest....." This article is hilarious. It's amazing how many tall, skinny (ectomorphs) endurance athletes think they have outstanding...
