SkRaw85 Training Log

Thanks kleen. Seems like I have been stuck isolating upper and lower like a yo yo lately due to injuries. Been a strange second half of the year to say the least. We both are doing what we can, no quit around here!
Amen to that, I am going to try some light BFR Leg Curls and Extensions tonight if I can manage without triggering any discomfort in my lower back. Between the shoulder, hip, lower back and ankle/knee mobility issues I am really on some weird rotation but like you said, No quitting!!!!
 
Zercher squats....you are a masochist!!

Also, nice cut mate. Can even see the yellow bits.

Haha thanks. Honestly haven’t leg pressed in maybe 2 years? Plus recent back injury limited lower efforts so atrophy. Focusing zerchers hard to supplement my lack of squats, Dead’s, and good mornings. Just a shadow of my former self

I am afraid to measure my legs at this point. They are still not small by any means, but I had pretty decent wheels before the last two years of injuries and BS. Lack of squats, deads and heavy ass leg press have definitely made a difference. I feel size wise my upper is recovering well but my lower.... Well I need to be able to get on them for a good 6 months... or one decent cycle. LOL

It will come back quickly, your body already has the map.

Enjoy a giant turkey leg at the festival!
Isn't it the worst when you go somewhere knowing damn good and well there will be smoked turkey legs and get all excited for the meaty goodness then find out all the turkey legs are overcooked and dried out... SO SO SAD!!!!! BLASPHEMY!!!

Exactly! For 17 bucks I need more moisture lol.
 
Oh you wanted the moist ones?? That’ll cost you EXTRA, buddy!

Nice yankin’ homie

Mucho moist!

Thanks man. It’s been way too long but I think I’m finally on the up and up. I was dreaming about deads last night, snapped awake at 4 am no alarm, banged the wife then went and pulled stiffbar for a few light reps (an actual bar, at an actual gym).
 
Nice pulls mate. Bet it felt good!

Thanks. Dude, I fuggin hurt lol. A good hurt but still. I got a bit excited right out of the gate, DOMS feel worse than a 600 lb session. Pretty sure the multiple hours of driving in a car right after is what screwed me. Would I do it any differently? Yes. I would have called in to work

Haha driving is the worst way to recover from deads!

Still, pain is a celebration of being alive.

Relocating gym to garage this weekend as per wife .
Found a rogue deadlift platform with tiles for $400. Steal!
Gonna throw down some stall mats and make the move. This is gonna suck lol. Session in itself but whatever. Now I can yell and scream and drop **** at 5 am without pissing off the household. They should actually thank me for the early morning motivation. Will be needing more plates now with the platform……..
This is a viscous cycle to say the least.

Awesome, I still can't do heavy deads in the AM in the garage. It shakes the whole house and is on separate slabs with anything over 405.
Yesssss!!!! Buy a good industrial fan
This!!!! However, lesson learned, if you do not have insulated or finished garage do not put an industrial ceiling fan in. Rookie mistake... Having 120-130 degree heated air blowing down from the roof radiating heat is WAY hotter than 95-100 in the garage without the fan blowing the heat down.... Ended up having to get a good floor fan anyway.

Got 4 stall mats today for a little footprint. Going to be moving equipment in the next few days when time allows. Excited to get this going! Texas deadlift bar was ordered yesterday, I miss whip. Contemplating if I NEED the rogue platform as I have stall mats, but I do know I WANT it. Help!
 
It’s honestly a fairly simple build. I would look at what lumber you need, how much it is and figure in how valuable your time is…
 
You want a platform. Build or buy one!

Time is what I don’t have right now. 2 jobs 7 days a week. Doubles bar tending on the weekends…. It’s rough lol. But I can’t deny the money right now. Winter slows down a little. I do love the rogue setup, and 400 bucks with all the tiles is robbery. I should probably pull the trigger. Texas bars have a 3 week lead time right now so I’ll see what happens honestly.
