Thank you! ...it's actually been a while since I did weighted dips...I'm fairly adamant about controlling each rep, and adding extra emphasis on elbows locking out...better carry over to Bench...

You got some strong lifts. What program are you running? Looks a little like 5/3/1 from what I see or a type of hybrid of it.

Thank you! ...in all honesty, I'm really just winging it right now (other than assistant stuff)...started out taking all lifts to a top single, followed by (2) 5 x 10s in supplemental work + 3-4 assistance light/high rep work to finish it off.

had to pull out of a recent meet due to life's circumstances, and decided to just freestyle and find my groove until I find something that fits...

I wouldn't say #permabulk....more like #forevermaintenance...lol.

I stay between 190 and 200, and don't really focus on aesthetics...regardless they tend to improve simply because I at the very least attempt to pick things up and put them down...:popworm:

most of the time when you miss a few days you lose some water because people tend to eat less salty and less carbs on off days

believe it or not, diet stayed almost exactly the same, even creatine/1g+ water on all days missed...other than Sat, where I damn near went all you can eat McD's breakfast...in the last 2 years, I've maybe dipped under 190 twice and over 200 the same amount of times...

Appreciated..

that's always been the plan...actually had to cancel what would have been my first meet just recently...working midnight to 8am with Monday and Tuesday as my days off, makes somethings more difficult than I would like...and work's been crazy recently, with way more mandatory 16hr shifts making training harder than it should be...FML...

I've only been dedicated to strength training going on 2 years, and still have a LOT to work on before I feel
at all competitive...but hopefully before this year's over I'll finally step on the platform...*fingers crossed*

Short recap...rough couple of days. 16 Hr shift on Thursday, so combined Thurs and Fri's Top Sets, on Friday....probably should have rested and did it all today...was def not smart of me to go and try after maybe 3.5 hrs sleep since Wed night up until the Friday session...all reps were completed, but I was gassed...the reps started getting sloppy, so stopped the session after completing the designated sets, and combined the supplemental and accessory work today (4/15/17)

never been a fan of straps...I know some top guys use them to overload, but for me, chalk is all I need...at least until I'm lifting heavy enough that it affects grip.

other than the bar drifting away from me a couple of times today, everything moved well, nothing too heavy... complete resets have really helped me maintain similar speed throughout sets compared to just resetting hips in between reps..

thanks...it's been over 6 months since I tried to Max on Front Squat...

I hit 345 x 2...I feel my form has improved since then...not sure when I will try to max again, but would really love to hit 405 for a rep by year's end.

Wow, very nice!
Except for my son, I never saw anyone in my gym doing them.
Are those white compression socks?

1265 Total...Attempts were based off of most recent 5rm, 3rm, and 2rm's....hit everything I selected which was the good...the bad was the ugly 3rd attempts...I want to blame the lack of energy on 3 weeks of low carbs (no more than 100g, and as low as 50g during the span)...tried my best to bury the squats and exaggerate the pauses on bench...forgot to weigh myself prior to lifting, so the 193.8 was afterwards...will continue to eat clean, but will bump carb intake to around 150 - 200g daily, see how far under 190 I can get myself in the next 6-9 weeks...

In the following weeks I'll focus more on smaller rep counts, and incorporate heavier supplemental work...my vacation selection was approved, so will finally pop my PW cherry July 30th...payed membership and ordered a cheap Inzer singlet...
