Can't walk. Legs too sore. Gotta squat 505 and 535 tomorrow too...

That was the 3rd squat workout of this new year, and I'm wrecked.

PULLUP

Some thoughts on my pressing strength: my best bench was a CG 300lb gym PR 3 years ago. One thing I remember is I did a lot of BTN push press bc I could barely bench without pain (pec strain a few months earlier) and I could do seated BB OHP 135x3x10. Going to add both of those lifts back in where I have the energy and if the elbow holds up.
 
Did some balance board work for my ankles, never done before, ankles actually feel better and dorsiflexion is improved; going to spend some more time doing stuff like this. Also did hella stretching and mob work today.

For a balance board? Stand on it and don't fall off, if you're real good, squat on it. I was just doing side to side (inversion/eversion) and front to back (dorsiflexion/plantarflexion)

Breaking News: A Pennsylvania man dies in what was apparently a balance board accident. No suspicion of foul play at this point.

That's just the minimum work, no time or energy for accessory. That 540 yoke walk cold wasn't a good idea...

GIX01. Not really active in BB.com, but I PMed you once about my lats and how they are so behind. You recommended to do pullups in between pushing exercises. I went from half pullup/day to 10 pullsup/day. Now, I'm on my way to a good V-Taper.

Lol glad I could help man. Ya, I don't really train pull-ups anymore, rows have helped a lot more with back strength. Still can crank out 20 pull-ups.

Yeah. It was back in 2011. Really nice width on the lats though. I'll try to incorporate more rows in my workout. However, I'm seeing good gains on pullups though since now I can do weight pullups. 30lbs at 10 reps.

My programmer just destroying my *******... This is the best the shirted bench has felt today though.

Also makes my raw work after feel stupid easy, despite all the fatigue.

I was thinking how nice that CGBP must have felt pulling 110lbs off the bar....even without the shirt, that's a big switcheroo on your hands.

Thanks, it's weight x sets x reps.

Good work today man. By the way, have you tried Huperzine A? Been wanting to try that for years.

I don't dose it solo but I get a solid dose anytime I take Focus XT. If you're studying or test taking I highly recommend FXT for improved retention and faster recall.


Had an athletic trainer check the knee, thinks it's all soft tissue damage to the semitendinosis and maybe minor meniscus irritation. Should be fine. Currently wrapped and icing when I can, 50 mid range knee flexion reps pain free every hour or so.

Will definitely try FXT. My job is in the internet and it relies on heavy research.

Thank god the knee wasn't something major. I'm actually considering your program for off season lifts but definitely not the same weight. Not even half of what you're lifting. Lol.
