It only took a decade but I finally learned how to perform multiple reps with a single breath. Makes a big difference.

11/2/18: Bridge, Week 7, Day 3

DL w/belt:
435x1
475x1 @8
435x4x4 @7.5, 8, 8, 8.5

2ct Pause Bench:
180x3 @7
185x3 @7.5
190x3 @8.5
195x3x2 @9, 9

303 Tempo Squats:
185x8x4 @6, 7, 7.5, 8

These weren't as bad today. Think just realizing RPE will scale up on a fixed weight with 2-3 minute rest keeps things manageable.

don't really see a point in testing maxes. Training is going well. Diet is going pretty well. Why f with it?

Btw, guess it's time to post a nude.

11/4/18: sunday weigh in

Date	Weight	Waist
9/17/18	223.6	n/a
9/24/18	221.2	n/a
9/30/18	219.2	39.25
10/7/18	217.4	39.33
10/14/18	215.8	39.06
10/21/18	217.0	39.03
10/28/18	214.6	38.63
11/4/18	213.2	38.19

similar fake news as usual. Was in CT visiting friends this weekend and had some pizza and halloweeen candy, but also stayed at Foxwoods Friday night and stopped through on the drive home yesterday. Just so damn dry there. Playing stud does damper the appetite at least.

Looking forward to the low stress week as I got a couple nagging aches and pains. Left hamstring a bit sore and I got this weird little ball deep in my left forearm. Doesn't really hurt though it's a bit sensitive to touch. Not sure what it is.

11/5/18: Bridge Week 8, Day 1

Squat w/belt:
405x1 @7.5
365x4x2 @7.5, 9

short rests.

Bench (comp):
215x1 @8
195x4x2 @8.5, 9

First set wasn't heavy, but the bar rolled outta place in my bull grip and was in a really uncomfortable position and threw my groove off. Second set was heavy. Tired.

Didn't have time for paused DLs as gym was closing. I drank too much yesterday so early morning workout wasn't happening. Prob not a big deal as my groin is still a little jacked up.

Dude is just basically farting around and training intermittently over the last five years when it doesn't interfere with trips to Brazil and then just throws up a PR on a whim. Sick life. Legit jelly. Congrats on the PR.

Looks worse due to fake news in previous weeks, but def real weight gain this week. I know why. I'll do better. Under 210 by 2019 let's goo.

Looks like the bulldog grip is working out well for you.

Does using wrist straps make a difference on your wrists when you bench? I’m curious because my wrists hurt a little when doing longish pause work.

tyty.

jd2b,

they provide some support, sure. I don't train with them much out of laziness but it's worth giving them a shot if your wrists are bothering you.

11/12/18: 7wk Hypertrophy - Week 1 Day 1

Squat w/belt:
345x6 @6.5
355x6x2 @7.5, 9

lol. This was supposed to be 355x6 @7, 365x6x2 @8, but the first set was heavy so I decided to keep the weight. And then the 2nd set nearly killed me. Maybe weasel amounts of beer on Sunday wasn't a great idea.

Press w/belt:
125x6 @6
130x6 @7.5
135x6x2 @8.5, 8.5

mostly fine. Doing 6 reps def changes things.

DB Flat Bench: myoreps
60s x14
60s x4
60s x3

lol. Kinda realized I've never really DB flat benched much before so setting up was awkward.

Any good beers? FoBAB (big chicago BA thing) is this weekend so I am going to prob die, gg. Every year I am like no that crowd is too big, but in the end the allure of the ticks is too high.

Mostly just Von Trapp Pilsner. I'm one of those guys now.

But I did have a Hudson Valley Straylight sour IPA thingy that sounds stoopid but is really pretty damn k.
