I really want to hit 500 before or at Worlds in November. Yeah I still train at EPC, but sometimes my GF and I train at 24 hour if we are going to miss the team session or are short on time. It saves us like an hour total time or a little more, going in to hit it at the real gym tomorrow morning.

3-4 Squats

5@45--5@135--3@225--2@315--2@365--8x2@405 Volume PR

Don't have to do much more than that for me to be satisfied with the day.
 
Damn that's a lotta volume with that weight!
 
Deads 5@135--2@225--3@315--2@365--2@405--2@435--1@455--1@475--2x0@505

Really wanted that 505 for a PR today, but no dice. Other than that, deads felt pretty good. I did have videos but a couple of the heavier ones messed up somehow, so I'm just gonna record next time.

HOws life bro?
hows the girl?
 
All 3 things are going great Bob, thanks bro!

3-10

Bench 8@45--5@135--3@185--3@225--2x3@245--4@225
DB Hammer curls and Tricep extensions to follow.

Still taking it easy on my left shoulder a little. It's getting better though, feels much more solid on bench than last week. Next meet is going to be the USPA Southwest Desert Classic Powerlifting Championship in Peoria, AZ. Jon Marshall from Unbreakable Gear has been kind enough to fly me down to represent with a bunch of other Unbreakable Powerlifting team members. It's also a charity fundraising event for the Az Hospice of the Valley.

Thanks guys!

3-18 Squats
5@45--4@135--3@225--2@315--2@365--2@405--4x2@425

I'm just seeing super rapid squat progress right now. 2@425 was a PR a couple weeks ago now it's 4 sets. I won't question it, just gonna ride it out. Have to take a small training break this week cause I'm getting a wisdom tooth taken out, but it shouldn't set me back too much. Next squat workout I'm gonna load 425 again and try to take it somewhere past 6 sets of 2, after that I can move to 435.
 
3-21 Squat

5@45--5@135--4@225--3@315--2@365--2@405--2x2@435--1@435--3@405

Not a bad day, squats were a little high though.
[video=youtube;zXaGdt6d6pE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXaGdt6d6pE[/video]
 
I benched a couple days ago up to a 3@245 and 2x2@255, then 4@225. Pretty weak benching lately, plan to increase frequency and get back to work on it. Just been busy squatting to find time for the other lifts haha.

3-24 Deadlift

Dead 4@135--3@225--2@315--1@405--1@455--2x0@505--3X1@455--1X0@475--3X1@425--2X2@425

Ok deadlift day, I at least got work done. Not a fan of missing these big singles though, I probably just need to quit doing them so often. Did get to chill with Adrian Larsen tonight though, which is always fun.

3-27 Bench Press

Bench 5@45--3@135--3@185--8@225--3@245--2@245--6@225
Decline CGBP--8@135--8@185--6@185
Did some curls too.

Wasn't expecting much from today, I've been sick the last couple days. My original goal was just to try and sweat out this cold. So I was kinda dicking around with my bench setup and tucked my feet back and kept them on toes. Ended up really getting some leg drive and hitting 225x8 for a PR tie. Excited to feel all the way better and try it with a real loaded bar. Squats tomorrow.
 
3-28 Squats

Squat 3@135--2@225--2@315--2@365--4@405PR--2@405
Followed by curls and calves bro.

Definitely still feeling the trail end of this cold. I suspected that I might not be fully prepared to go real heavy. Plus I was pretty confident that I could set a new 405 PR at 4 reps which was a success. Gonna just chill this weekend, keep pounding OJ, and smash the hell out of Monday, which will be Bench/Squat.
 
3-31

Bench 5@45--4@135--3@185--2@225--2@245--0@265--2@245

Dips 8@+45--8@+55--8@+65
Alt Hammer curl [email protected]@35

Rough day in the gym, hadn't eaten anything and trained around 2:30 Pm. I was just kinda winded the whole time, and got a little light headed after some sets. I was sliding all over the ****ty bench trying to stay tight today too. The 425 double on squats was a serious grinder too. Just gonna chalk it up to a bad day and still coming off a cold that had me feeling under the weather all week. Deadlifts and pin press on Wednesday.
 
4-2 Deadlift

Deads 5@135--4@225--3@315--2@365--2@405--2@425--2@455--1@475--1@505PR

Had exactly the workout I needed today. I deadlifted until both hands were bleeding, then I filled and covered the wounds with chalk until there was no red showing. Proceeded to hit a new deadlift PR, then I brushed off the bar, hit it with a clorox wipe and bounced. Good ass day in the gym.

****ing awesome, dude! That's what the **** I'm talking about.
 
Bad ass pull buddy!
 
Thanks a bunch guys, I'm pretty stoked on it. I think I could maybe muster out another 5lbs if I was pulling singles all the way up instead of doubles to 455. I'll save that 5lbs for the platform. 24 days out now, hoping to hit 475-485/275-285/515-525 Anything that equals 1275 for a Worlds qualifying total and I'm pumped.
 
It was good to see Reddoja make an appearance lol haven't seen that guy in a while
 
Haha right, there was so much blood in my face, my eyes tingled.
 
4-9 Deads

Deads 3@135--3@225--3@315--2@365--2@405--2@455--3x2@475
Bench 4@135--4@185--3@225--3@245--2@255

Good day of deadlifts, originally was going to go for 3-5 doubles at 455 but felt good and kicked it up. 475x2 was a PR. 17 Days out from my meet, sitting about 194 solid, fat but solid.
[video=youtube;czioIlA5VKw]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czioIlA5VKw[/video]
 
4-16 Squats

Squat 2@45--2@135--2@225--2@315--2@365--2@405--2@425--2@445

Just what I wanted 10 days out from my meet. 500 might be in the cards for a 3rd attempt.

Please excuse my excessive relishing of my victory after lockout. I was pumped.

Good luck this weekend, Doja. Make it happen.
 
1278@198 479/270/529 66lb total PR, all of which added on squats and deads. I locked out 286, but lifted my butt.

Epic! You just keep getting better man. Congrats.
 
Huuuuuge PR, man. That's awesome.
 
Thanks for your guys continued support! It means a definitely helps me push hard in the gym.
 
Cinco de Mayo, Squats and Bench

Squat 3@45--3@135--3@225--2@315--2@365--2@405--5x2@425 PR for Volume
Bench 3@45--3@135--3@185--2@225--2x2@255--6@225

Training at full steam again, solid day in the gym.
 
5-7 Deadlifts

Deads 3@135--3@225--3@315--2@405--2@455--1@475 (Passed out)--2@475--1@475 (miss on 2nd rep)

First time ever passing out after a deadlift, I doddled a little too much over the bar while holding my breath, combined with a bad starting position made this 475 a serious grinder. Next thing I knew I was on the floor hearing "nice dismount" from one of the guys lifting. I had to ask if I locked it out, which I did. Came back to hit it for a solid double, then another single. Not bad for my first deadlift session back from the meet.

5-10 Squats

Squats 3@45--3@135--3@225--2@315--2@365--2@405--8x2@425 Volume PR

This was a good squat day for sure. I came in feeling a little tired and after the first 3 sets of 425 I wasn't sure how many I would get. So I had a little talk with myself about how people that squat 500lbs don't crap out after 3 sets of lightweight. Set 4 was smooth, and I got back in the zone. Sets 5 and 6 were smooth first reps with grinders on 2nd. 7 and 8 were grinders on both reps. Really feeling victorious after this one. I'll be taking 435 for rides all week next week.
 
Hard work, good coaches, and a constant supply of purus labs products my man.
