Not Gonna Be a Weak Butterbar!!!

for sure man, let me know if you need a hip thrust spot :P hahaha

Squat and Good Mornings yesterday, not worth a full write up.

Leaving to go see Dethklok/Mastodon/Converge/High on Fire in Albany in 20 minutes should be great.

The show was pretty ****ing metal. I'm sorry to say that Mastodon was a little disappointing (and Converge sucked), they played the entire Crack the Skye album if that's what you like but only 2 or 3 older songs and nothing very heavy. Dethklok on the other hand was worth it.

Brendon Small does most of the voice work and all instruments except for drums (Gene Holgan takes care of that!) for the show but they have a full band for the live stuff. All the songs were done live but they had a giant screen above them playing music videos that they made specifically for the tour (Hatredcopter and the extended Thunderhorse were really well done) and a bunch of like mini episode bits that I guess are insights into the new season. They played the opening theme and the Duncan Hills Coffee Jingle (yesssss!) too.

Been swamped this week hence no updates but training continues. Notable stuff was that I hit a 225x2 bench and took a bunch of squat videos for analysis in Biomechanics- the finished project should be pretty cool so I'll throw it up here when I complete it.

Duncan Hills Coffee Jingle by Dethklok



Back Pain: 0/10
Soreness: 0/10

Bench: 215x3 (135, 155, 185, 195, 205x5)
Paused 1 Board: 185x5, 2x4x195
Band Face Pull: lots
Rolling DB Extension: 3x8x25 (weak as hell on these)
Kroc Row: 95x18

Regular bench wasn't terribly strong but the 1 Board felt pretty awesome.

Glad to be back in the swing of things.. until the PT test next week forces a schedule change (again)

I've never been able to stick with Good Mornings as assistance work before for more than a few weeks, hopefully I can change that around this time.

Unfortunately between our Record PT test and FTX, the only day I'll get to train this week is Wednesday.
