Sean's Powerlifting Journey

All I want is my ****ing caffeine and whatever the hell I want to eat back.

Cube Method- Heavy Deads

Deficit Pulls, off of 45lb plate
445x2x3 (reps x sets)

Reverse Band, EFS lights (orange)
495x3x1
535x3x1

Snatch Grip Deadlift
345x8x3 FML

DB Rows
100x15x4 or 5 sets..I forgot

DB Shrugs
100x12x3

Bicep Curls
x whatever who cares

Doubled light banded standing crunches
x15x5

This whole, not-eating-everything-in-sight-as-much-as-possible-thing, sucks. It makes my weights feel heavy...boo hoo I'm determined to not lose and ounce of strength while slowly dropping body weight. So far I'm succeeding, for now.

The squat/deadlift suits are on hold until I'm under a consistent 210. I've been fluctuating too much lately. Some days they fit, today they don't. I'll be rocking briefs until then. Which will benefit me. Baby steps. That being said, today was raw.

Had a guy show me how he does those banded crunches. Kinda get into a squat stance and explode your torso downwards and try to hold. They wreck me
 
Actually, doing biceps work will help in the prevention of a possible biceps issue with your opposing grip DLs.

Sweet tater fries for the win!! Hating on you as well here as I gulp down my tuna and Franks Buffalo wing sauce combo.
 
It's an off day for me so very low carb.
 
I had two chicken burritos and two chicken tacos for my post-training meal. I need to break 230 by end of June.
 
I'm so jealous. I bet it was real Mexican food too. I need to transfer out of New England ASAP. All we have is Qdoba and Chipotle.

I just got out of bed and ate the other half of the second chicken...winning.

Chipotle is good stuff. Best thing about TX is the hole-in-the-wall Mexican food places that cost $5 and give you 3lbs of food.

Chipotle is good but nothing beats a real Mexican taco. I used to go to a Mexican deli when I was stationed in NY and would get 10 chicken tacos for a dollar each...because the only word I knew was 'pollo'

I'm thinkin of ribs post workout tomorrow..
 
So...I downloaded a heart rate app on my iPhone. It's actually accurate. I compared its results with what I timed from my carotid artery and it's the same.

Resting HR in bed....82-85

I'll see what it's at when I lift, when I run some sprints, and how long it'll take me to get below 100.

I'm gonna try to weasel my way out of seeing this cardiologist.

Still no clue wtf is up with my kidneys (I may have said liver before..it's kidneys). Oh well.

**** ton of energy. I woke up at 7 and took the kid to day care. Came back home and slammed some fruit, and chicken. Fell asleep and woke up at 1030. Chugged some Gatorade and hit the gym. I am becoming a supple leopard. I think my posture and stability has improved greatly with the bar on my back.

Felt like a rookie biatch with the knee wraps today though...

Vids to come when I get home.
