The town I was training in is the major city about 1hr from where I went to High school at.

Some older guy walked up and started talking to me since a friend of his was a powerlifter. After awhile he said I looked familiar and I brought up the front page articles done on me when I was younger due to my extremely challenging upbringing.

Things you forget about till reminded.

Anyway back on track with 6 weeks till my upcoming meet. Only sidetrack will be a trip to austria for work for a week in the middle of that.

thanks man and congrats on the upcoming Baby!!!
 
A nagging injury has come back in the last couple weeks and is really bothering me after last weeks bench session. It initially stated as a pec tear last year at the very inside where it ties to the rib cage. The issue developing now is either on my rib cage or deep in my pec. Pressing does not hurt but expanding or raising my rib cage does. So deep breathing is hurting, hanging (ie like a pull up), or just setting up on the bench. Its gotten real bad in the last couple days and can easily be felt in everyday activity or breathing deeply.

My ART guy did some work on t last year but it didn’t do much since it was so deep under my pec he couldn’t really get to it.

My plan going into this meet is to just do high board presses and not take any heavy weight to my chest with my shirt on (since this really compresses the rib cage) till the meet.

Did some work to try and stretch it out and get some blood flow to it yesterday morning.


Bench
135x20x20
225x30x16x12

Pullups
BW x20x20

Hanging stretches

Followed with some ice compression last night and this morning.
It does feel MUCH better this morning as well.
Started cycling back onto some Super Cissus yesterday as well.
 
my pec is really not doing well....but I decided to do some board work as I thought that wouldn't agravate it as much

135x20
185x10
225x5
315x5
off 2board
365x5
405x5
add shirt off 3 board
545x3 just killed my pec so I adjusted shirt
595x3 more pain and more adjustments
was hurting pretty good just breathing after this set
645x5 no pain
685x4 no pain

finally had things adjusted on last couple sets were I could push t with no pain.

shirt off
Bench off 2board
315x15

Rolling BB tri ext
130x8x8
150x8

Bench off 2board
315x10


Ice compression

actually feel somewhat decent today considering but finally getting into my ART guy at lunch today. Hopefully some relief on the way soon...although I'm more concerned with getting 100% by my august 22nd meet. I think I figured out how to setup so I can bench without pain next week.

Sorry to here about the injury, sounds like you have it under control though.

Last 3/4 workouts have all been bench is there a reason for that, especially w/injury?

Looking forward to the meet results!

couldn't hit depth with the frist time in my titan briefs. think I will be able to next time after getting them a little broken in. Also think part of it was in my head cutting it short because its only been a few weeks of handling heavy weights again.

FRIDAY

Active Release therapy. A little bit of issues with my left pec insertions into the sternum but the majority of the problem appears to be my intercostals on the left side tying the rib cage together. He said the only real way to get at them was surgically since they are underneath the pec. We did some work on them and were able to get at them a little bit.

Seemed to help quite a bit.

What are you weighing these days Chris?
Click to expand...

to much

222. Got a ways to cut to make 198 on the 22nd. I would like to be down to around 216-218 prior to my 24hr water cut.

My waist size has been staying pretty consistent despite my weight gain so that is positive!

I was wondering if you were planning on competing at 198. This should be a killer meet for you.
 
Chris, you plan on hitting any of the Pro Am's in the near future. You know i want to be just like you when i grow up.

possibly....and you a funnay man. Hope all is going well!
 
its been 105 most every day this week. have not installed air or even ventelation in my training center yet. gets hot damn hot and muggy real fast with a bunch of guys all training hard and sweating in a small room.

Been feeling sick last couple days with a painfull sore throat, but meet is getting close so there is no excusses.

Squat
60x10x5
155x5x5
270x5
360x3
470x3
560x3
650x1
740x1
830x1
920x1
950x1
was stronger, smother, and deeper than anything i've done in last couple weeks. Didn't hit depth yet but was getting VERY close.

Lockouts
1070x2
1160x1

hopefully i will find time in next few days to hit assistance work.

I actually sweated tonight for my workout. combo of excess water i'm drinking for my water cut, the 110+degree heat in the gym, wearing full gear, and being sick. I wasn't dripping but my shirt was a damp...very unusual for me to break a sweat. One of the various reasons my training partners use as proof i'm an alien. :)
 
Bench
135x20x20
225x30

Deadlift
160x5
270x5
360x3
470x3
560x3
650x1
720x1
Easy and fast felt like an opener even though my back/traps are just flat fried from the last few weeks of heavy work.

Pulls off 4” Block
800x0
850x0
830x0
Grip and strength issues. Actually felt harder for me as this is a weak area and I didn’t have the bar speed/momentum off the floor to get me through it.
 
Have not checked recently but was down to 5'9" last I looked a couple years back...may be even shorter now if trend keeps up
 
Solid session.
Chest is doing well and ART is working. No where near 100% but making progress. Also pulled my serrates muscle on my back(not the ones in the front) did a little ART work on them and some band stretches…think this one will be a non issue in a couple days.

Bench
135x20
225x10
315x5
Shirt and 1board
495x1
545x1
585x1
635x1
All real nice easy and paused.
Add 4board
715x5
Raw off 3board
405x11x13
Raw off 2board
315x10…just tired.

I was amazed how clean and easy the 635 was…especially since I didn’t have my shirt jacked at all today. I may play around a bit more on DE day with the shirt this week as I may want to adjust my attempts at the meet.

What have you been weighing, and are you still trying to hit 198's.
Click to expand...

to much.

been in low 220's...

should be about 5lbs lighter within 2 weeks and ready for my drop to 198.

been having a tough time holding weight down lately with my ravenous appetite...but i have been putting on muscle.
 
Deloading for the meet right now...I AM READY TO CRUSH WEIGHT!!!!

8/22/09 I am hosting and competing in the Northwest Powerlifting Championships. Hope to crush some records in the 198lb class again!

Down to about 217 walking around right now. But I've been 212-214 upon waking the last couple days with how my body has been dumping weight with all the water and salt loading.

We load the equipment on the trailer Tuesday night and will move it and set it up Friday night. It is being held in a VERY Well-to-do suburb and has been gaining a lot of interest so it looks like it will be a big crowd of people unfamiliar with powerlifting. 30+ competitiors.

Think I have most everything lined out. Several last minute items being shipped in this week but looking pretty dialed for a sweet comp again!!!
