The yes/no machine doesn't have many fans, and many lifters plain write it off because who wants to open and close their legs in front of the entire gym?

You'll be surprised, as I was.

Usually, we try to avoid chaos, but in the gym, we should lean into it.

Chaos training adds a looped resistance band to certain exercises, turning on your body's emergency balance system. Doing it improves your exercise form, balance, stability, and core strength.

The Chaos Suitcase Carry does this and more. Check it out.

I feel the lift setup is almost as important as the lifting itself.

If you're constantly readjusting during a set, you're wasting valuable energy that should be spent on lifting. The Preacher Curl may seem silly to worry about, but the biceps are that important.

There are a couple of things to pay attention to with this lift for maximum safety and gains. And here they are.
