405 for two singles on floor press is still pretty legit lol. Whats your floor press PR? Mmm...bourbon.
410 last time I tested. Yes, bourbon is delicious and it was time to reward myself lol. Made some nice old fashioneds with Laws rye and also a few with the cask strength 4 grain bourbon (55% and smooth). Highly recommend AD Laws, a new all time favorite of mine.405 for two singles on floor press is still pretty legit lol. Whats your floor press PR? Mmm...bourbon.

Gonna have to look for this one. I have been on a Rye kick lately. Probably an unpopular thing to say but I actually like it better than Bourbon... I have been drinking Woody Creek Colorado Straight Rye and really enjoying it. Have you had that and how would you compare the 2 if so?410 last time I tested.

As unpopular as it may be, I completely agree with you. Gonna keep an eye out for the Laws and your Woody Creek. I dont drink the firewater regularly but i do enjoy a glass or two every now and again if I’m in the right mood.Gonna have to look for this one. I have been on a Rye kick lately.

One of the keys to really enjoying in my opinion is to get a whisky ice cube tray to make the big dense icecubes for the rocks instead of using regular old ice which can melt too quickly an really water it down. Some will say just drink it neat, and occasionally I will but I like it cool and with a little ice I feel like I can taste more of the flavors in it instead of being overcome by the burn of the whiskey.As unpopular as it may be, I completely agree with you.

Rye is my preferred of the 2 as well. Just so much sharper and appealing. Woody creek is another amazing CO whisky, plus it gets the HST nostalgia factor as well. In terms of Rye, Laws takes the win in my book. Bourbon bs bourbon though it would be a tough call, just depends on the day of the week I suppose.Gonna have to look for this one.

100% this. Reg Ice is awful for whisky. Need that long ester ice....One of the keys to really enjoying in my opinion is to get a whisky ice cube tray to make the big dense icecubes for the rocks instead of using regular old ice which can melt too quickly an really water it down.

I got a kick out of that too!“Long-ester ice cubes”
Need them hips a bigger! But yes these are not pleasant. Pain is coming next week as I intend to belt squat whilst a loaded SSB is on top of my body.Sumo march? Why you like pain so much??
Lol. Had a pre lift poop this morn immediately before this. Glad I did.That look when you made the lift but are still working to make sure the poop stays inside
Yeah would have been a bad way to lose your brace!Lol. Had a pre lift poop this morn immediately before this. Glad I did.
Like the nail that’s holding the whole shanty together comes outYeah would have been a bad way to lose your brace!
Dumb and Dumber meets dead lifts! Brrraaatttttt A TAT TATTT!!!! Whoops, I guess I need to find a new gym....Like the nail that’s holding the whole shanty together comes out
Can I like this twice please????Dumb and Dumber meets dead lifts! Brrraaatttttt A TAT TATTT!!!! Whoops, I guess I need to find a new gym....
I hate you lolDamn, 550 at the top is a serious lockout man. Can’t imagine it!
What?I hate you lol
448 was total weight at top. I have been less thorough as I have been logging workouts in notes on my phone and copy/pasting here. Leave out all my warmups as well. Gives me more time and focus on the job at hand. But yes, 550 at lockout will be nice... one day. Thank you for believing a 550 bench in me thoughWhat?
Yeah yeah yeahHaha same thing happened last week or two weeks ago.
Didnt we teach you how to log god dammit? Lol

Haha seriously! Twas the most I’ve ever pulled sumo yes, as I never really do pull sumo. I Still love the conventional savagery feelings 100x better than sumo, and I have more power than technique. I still think sumo speed deads after box squats are great for dynamic days tho and will continue with them for that purpose.Not a bad pull for your T Rex arms! Gotta haul that 531 a country mile after all. Was that a PR still?
Mad docu-skillz! 8 day unplanned “Deload” consisting of no heavy ass weights except my fork shoveling food was great. Threw myself to the wolves coming back full bore. My tris and tittays and lats were fried after benching against bands and chains. Got a lil lazy after that main lift lol. It’s been a minute since I got real heavy with JM’s. I’ve been neglecting themI’m so proud of your documentation skillz here That’s around 450 at the top by my estimate!
Also, consider pushing those JM presses harder homie. I can do those numbers and am benching 80% of you - and your arms are much better leveraged for it! And if that goes up, watch your ME work rise too.
Thanks! It was a burner.Great session man
Thanks, happy new year!Nice work and HNY!
