Notes
Missed my 310 attempt, got it...
Just depends on where everything is at. 320 is the most I’ve taken in the 6 weeks since the meet, and I slept on my shoulder funny last night so pec felt iffy going into it on that side. I knew I...
When 320 went up very well, it was a relief. Then I realized I had 9 work sets ahead, and from there it was just a slog through the pounding. I mean I chose it & was satisfied when completed, but...
Got it done today, really happy with how it turned out. Now to let it cure out. I’ll get forms stripped maybe this coming weekend. And counting down to the crew getting here to put up the shell.
I had no idea my son would be squatting 425 and nearing a 300lb bench his senior year when we started lifting together back in his pre-teen days. I just wanted him to lift cause it was fun and...
Badass for your son!!! Haha, don't let the strength get you, get yourself defined and celebrate that then focus on rebuilding strength while in a very mild surplus. Then you won't only still be...
Weight: 203.2
I’m back to the same weight i hit on keto back in 2016. I was probably overall leaner and stronger, but still in a decent place. 8 pounds to go.
My 14 year old son continues to...
Heavy singles have been a thing for decades. Brooks Kubik wrote about them in Dinosaur Training in the 90s, and that wasn’t a book of his methods - that was a book of all the old school methods he...
Seems that way. Would make sense since squatting is the one lift that is giving me a mountain of issues now.
Yep. Im a bit of an extreme example of that logic, over the year I have found that...
I can’t train my comp squat in a standard rig or cage lol.
I have to use a safety bar, or a combo rack with the uprights kicked in like at comp, or in a monolift with the hooks slid in is how I...
Man, glad there are no tears in your AC and your shoulder is feeling better. That makes sense that your diet has helped inflammation. That is a big ganglion cyst…they are usually caused from long...
Thanks Man, I know the log is long so a quick synopsis. I did manage to compete even with all the injuries, but after my bodybuilding comp some problems with my neck and spine basically took me...

Benched my ass off this morning; after 10 sets, even 235 felt heavy...
Yeah there’s a reason for strength they have found 8x3 is superior to 3x8 - same total muscle volume, but the level of control you can exhibit to maintain optimal technique is far superior. As a...
Happy belated birthday! I meant to tell you earlier.
Also, it was 83* here, 22* above the average high it says. This hurricane is causing everything to be crazy; Vegas got flooded badly I saw.
holy crap its so cold today. about 32f. yesterday was 70f, and this friday is supposed to be close to 80f.
Even though 32 isn't really cold, the drastic fast change is SHARP in the air today !

Only problem is my hands are basically outside the safeties because I have to grab it so wide . And grab it with a talon grip.
I have to basically unrack and walk out then slide hands out after...
Louie Simmons had a story about a Norwegian lumberjack that eventually took a sabbatical from work to train for powerlifting nationals. His deadlift went DOWN. All of the tons of bending over &...
since yesterday was my birthday, other than the Seahawks game, I spent most of the day just doing jobs "for me". so I started harvesting my tobacco leaves as well and hung them up in the attic to...
I was thinking a lot about how these guys are legit. I'm putting in a few hours a day on the weekend to save a couple hundred dollars doing it myself and they do it every day to make the mortgage...
I looked on the calendar to try to schedule but it looks like they changed the site to log into. So now I am not sure how to schedule for it or even see when the class is. I will have to ask when...
Thats probably the reality of it. I would be that it might depend on the man and the state of his libido. if he's high libido type then maybe smashing all night would be better so he's not in a...
Honestly you want extremely minimal wrist extension in a proper benchpress; there’s a reason wrist wraps are meant to cast the joint straight essentially. So sounds like you have enough of what...
