Felt good this morning, the goodmornings felt a little awkward but by the last set I was getting the hang of it... Bent over rows were dissapointing but I just moved to a machine to finish it off.. rest tomorrow so ill probably be doing core and cardio work
 
Awkward because you've never done them or because your injury?
 
Ive done them but ive never put weight on the bar... And ive been avoiding bending over as much as I can since my injury, but it felt good by the end of the sets

Solid day, Bench felt pretty good next week im hoping to push 295+ getting closer to my on cycle bench of 325... Squats tomorrow
 
Yes, ive been using the programming for the big lifts for a while now but decided this week to start following the assistance template as well
 
I didn't realize there was an assistance template.
 
Its not anything very specific and he pretty much says its only in the book so ppl will stop asking about it... He preaches to figure out your own assistance work... Ive been doing that but im going to try his and see what I like more

Good workout this morning, got my off cycle PR but man it was close fast off my chest but a little more than half way up it was like I hit a brick wall , on the way out I saw someone setting up a barbell in a corner for tbar rows, so no more of That chest supported crap where I cant breathe

Good day even though I failed, squats felt great but on 405 I felt my hips come forward and my back went into hyper extensions, so I ditched it, I could have finished the rep but im not about to risk injury when I know there's always my next ones week
 
Hitting all those PRs!!! ???
 
Awesome PR man. It wasn't long ago that you were injured. Have 405 on your back this quick is amazing.
 
Maybe that's the wrong description, my hips tilted forward which caused hyper extension in my back

Been sick since Friday terrible cold/ flu but its going away now and I decided im going to be trying out a thumbless grip on ohp going forward felt pretty good today maybe that will help me put a few more lbs on my press, deadlift tomorrow
 
Nice OHP man. I enjoy thumbless too.
 
I felt stronger coming out of the bottom with the thumbless grip
 
Today was complete crap, all I ate yesterday was a 6oz chicken breast and a protein shake, then tried to go do deadlifts fasted this morning, it was crap

Deads
135*3
135*5

Felt dizzy and weak throughout those sets so I left, I didn't expect much better than that after eating basically nothing for 24+ hours
But tomorrow's benching will go better
 
Yeah, I can't squat or dead after missing meals the day before.
 
Why didn't you eat? Sick? You should have went for some McDs or some other greasy fast food bfast on the way to the gym today (seriously). All the processed crap means mega calories consumed w ease. And you need fuel to train. Unless cutting its always better to get the cals in. Sources make a difference but something is always better than nothing.

Lol. You young guys that can eat anything! Banana, protein, coconut oil, sweet almond milk and PB or almond butter in a blender! Boom, quick high calorie fuel shake!
 
I was sick but not to where I couldn't eat, but a lackluster appetite with a 10 hr work day immediately into 4 hrs of school I just wanted to go to bed... I made up for it yesterday easily put back 4000 cals

Mine was purely out of laziness. No excuse to not pull into a fast food joint on way to gym at least lol. But your shake is obviously better nutrition. Used to make one exactly like that every day when I first started squatting and deadlifting with whole milk and 1/2 cup oats in lieu of coconut oil. 900+ cal of gains. Went from 165 to 192 in 6 months.
