Pleased with the PR. Not peaked and I've been dieting for 3 weeks (albeit very slowly). Just kept adding weight because I felt good. 520 was there on the day. Think 535 is a good end of year goal.

Then got the hypertrophy work in as planned.

Chest, shoulders, and arms tomorrow.

Stay strong AM.

I'm kinda hungover. Just wanted to get in a little work.

Stay strong AM.
 
I know one thing for certain, high bar pause squats are pretty much the last thing I'd want to do hungover haha. Good work man.
 
For me, high bar pauses are the most relaxing type of squat. Easy set up and the weight is lighter

I hope one day i can say high bars are relaxing to me lol. Id rather front squat any day. The bar placement on my traps is just so awkward. It could just be that I'm no longer accustomed to them since i have hardly done them since moving to low bar a few years ago but those things suck the life out of me.

Haven't lifted in 12 days. I've had a lot going on. Still working full time, but I've finally launched the business I've been working on for the past few months. Check out the site.

choicemaidsohio.com

I've hired a few employees and am trying to get this thing off the ground. Has the potential to be another solid income stream. If anyone has family in Northeast Ohio give a brother some support.


Anyway, here was today's session. Went easy.

Thanks! And it wasn't. Between working full time and lifting and navigating the clusterfuk that is the process of forming a new business I have been extremely busy
