    Thanks! Definitely looking forward to it. It's also so completely different from the type of trips we've done with the kids so far. As long as it's a football field's distance away I'll be OK with that! I thought it would, or at least get me more excited? But no, no real change...

    A deload at 225x3 sounds like things are definitely progressing well for your strength!

    Thanks, yeah I guess the thing I'm still trying to wrap my head around is coming into this prep - being "cold" / unpracticed on a lot of these lifts I hit 205x1 on squats and 195x1 on bench. But I'm still not getting anywhere close to touching those during my planned peak week - rx'd weights are...

    Yeah, it actually seems like a great price even comparing when I look on some of these clothes resale sites. OK, could use some help from those who've competed: Schedule is a little wonky right now and I'm finishing up Week 7 of this prep. Monday I will hit my rx'd DLs. Then I could hit my...

    Nice work! And always helps when you have new workout gear. Added motivation when you look fresh or have new toys to play around with!

    Yikes. 7 hours driving straight through is no joke. The only time I ever do that is from here to Columbus for the Arnold. But that's with two drivers at least to switch off. These days though my limit is like 2 hours of sitting. I really can't do much more than that in one go.

    The TL;DR version is: Started TRT to deal with energy / high fatigue issues. Have been running RP Strength Hypertophy app since last Nov. Switched gears in the past month to month and a half, to focus on the Big 3 lifts again for an upcoming charity PL style meet end of Oct.

    Those apples look delicious! I wish I had a fruit tree, but we have so many deer they'd just eat them all. They basically eat any type of plant around here, even ones that are supposedly deer resistant. My wife sprays too and it only sort of helps.

    Awesome to hear the PR! Also really great when it's a come back story, particularly as we all age. But that's both mental toughness/grit, being smart about training, AND playing the long game! Congrats GP.

    Glad to see you back on AM and posting! Someone's got to class up this joint. Work travel has been ramping up lately, so was up early again yesterday for an all day meeting in NYC. Meant skipping the gym. Thankfully it was only cardio day! [emoji1] Squat Day Warm up routine. RDLs: Empty bar...

    Kat and Puccah's Strong is the new sexy log

    Looking good! A common issue most have with this shot is not allowing yourself to pull up with the arms ao they hit parallel. That will also help you open up the lats vs scrunch the upper back. Basically, try to flare wide. That's how I think about it at least. I honestly believe my training...
