- Heavy TGUs. I find 24k to be about perfect. I can do 32k, but probably best not to start there if I haven't been working on it for a while. Nothing heavier than that has ever felt safe.

- Pistols. I think bottom-position pistols work as a stretch, but that's about it. Why bother?

- Mixed-grip deadlifts. Sure, it can get a few extra kilos, but never feels very safe.

- Bent press / Side press. I might revisit these two if a circus strongman can give me some coaching. Otherwise, no thanks.

- Trap bar jump pulls. What was I thinking of?

- Lifting outside in a thunderstorm. Yes, I did this. No, I don't recommend it.
