That benching looks fun. Ill be trying that next next week. Your chest must have been so pumped afterwards. How did you manage to maintain or increase bar speed with such short rest times? Didnt you...

New program might do the trick. When you were following TM's progression, when/why did you switch off of it? Did your bench/ohp stop progressing then on 10 lbs/month? How about DLs?

You can...

So even the negative portion should be fast? Like the weight should look like it's falling down? I think ill try to speed it up at that same weight next time and see if I can bench faster. If not ill...

Good to see you squatting again. Be safe. Oh, and you're so gonna feel it the next couple days.

Enjoy, man! If you find a dumbbell or barbell somewhere don't hesitate to lift it.

^^Yeah I remember those brutal SS days. Especially towards the end of SS after several deloads. It was torture. Anyway, RD details below:

Some words of wisdom...

"Lift!"

Thanks guys. Off to the gym now for RD. Should be a boring day cuz no PRs will come out of it.

Nice job doing max-effort DLs w/ DOH. I suck at DOH. Never attempted DOH on anything above 2 plates. And in my opinion, if you can pull DOH, then do so. Save the hook grip or mixed grip for when you...

Did you ease into Sheiko the way it's recommended? I agree with the others that perhaps you could take a week or two off from the gym. Eat whatever you want and enjoy, and then re-attempt Sheiko....

Thanks dude. Yup can't wait!



Yeah definitely. I always like to hold the last rep at lockout for a couple seconds cuz it feels so badass, haha.

what is going on in here? You are defying the laws of TM.

Yeah I haven't been properly tracking calories these days. I'm just so bored of the usual foods I cook at home and I keep eating food from outside. I've gone through this phase before, all I need is...

lol @ the curls. Looks like good work going on in here. Keep it up!

Monday, June 17th, 2013 -- Volume Day

SQUAT

45x5x2
145x3
195x1
245x5x5

Much better than last week's VD. I felt some tightness in the hips on my first workset, so maybe skipping the 95x5...

Nice progression dude. Don't worry about going ass to grass on the squats. Just go as deep as you can w/ proper form (slightly below parallel is fine). As for supplements, just stick w/ creatine. A...

That's really cool, man. I wish I had a home gym. Between rest sets I could go do whatever I want and not worry about hogging equipment. Use a crap-load of chalk with no worries. Yeah never listen to...

Might've missed it but, are you still cutting? You plan to strength train and train for a marathon on a cut??

Yeah, I remember seeing those videos where you got the weight off the floor several times but never to lockout. Do you do a lot of rack pulls?
