Can't blame him really. It was probably the first time he had been able to get it up in months and then she "wasn't in the mood." I'd smack her with it too, that always gets them in the mood.

The classic mushroom stamp

Lol I'm innocent!

Should've known it wasn't you. You don't need to resort to that type of behavior, you just show her this and the panties come flying off

[Ironlife]

That 500 came up so fast from the earth

Great deadlifting Woody.

I don't think I've ever asked you this, but have you ever watched Eastbound and Down?

Tuesday 11.27.12- Macenko's Week 4A


This was suppose to be done yesterday but real lift made me push it back to today. Thursday's will have to be pushed to Friday, then I'll hopefully be back on schedule next week!

The reps didn't feel very smooth tonight. I dunno why, I just felt like I was all over the place. Shoulders are a tad sore, but nothing to worry about I don't think.

Bench
45 x 10
135 x 5
155 x 3
175 x 8
220 x 6
230 x 5
245 x 4
260 x 3
260 x 3
260 x 3
Final set was an AMRAP set, but my lower back cramped at the top of the 2nd rep. Hit a 3rd then racked it. Would have had at least 4. It could be my body's way of keeping me in check- I was feeling greedy and I probably would have pushed to failure

[moshvr]

Still a solid session Woody. Hopefully the shoulder soreness is nothing to worry about!

Smart.

Great show!!!

Also, this^

Need to get the rest of the 2nd season on Netflix.

Thanks dude! I don't think the shoulder soreness anything to worry about. Delts just feel sore like they've been worked hard

Smart.

gotta take care and think ahead. Still a lot of program ahead of me and there'll be plenty more chances for rep PRs

[jshaw5]

Nice job wood man. I'm scared of 90%xAMRAP haha

[Woody-5]

Thanks dude!
90% for triples is no fukking joke if you're using your actual (or close to it) max

[12ccopeland]

90% amrap. :|

[jeezyreezy]

Great pressing session woodman, hopefully you won't have a problem with the lower back cramping again.

[Woody-5]

90% amrap. :|

Lol do it!!!!

Thanks jeezy!
Back was my own fault today- I really dug in too hard before starting the set and pushed the arch a little too much.

i hate you and your ridiculous benching
If I get 5# more on Saturday then I did in July I will be lucky

[HunterMC6]

Nice work Woody! Hopefully that shoulder problem is nothing. You will nail the form next session!

I don't think you do
You'll kick ass Saturday

Thanks fella! Shoulders actually feel better this morning than they did yesterday. Apparently they just needed a good beating.

Its that arch :P

This for sure lol

Smart job not forcing any more reps on that last set, smart work listening when to stop.


Your doing awesome so far mate, take an extra day off next week if you need to bro.

Thanks my man! Ill definitely take an extra day if I need it

I think the issue I'm having is trying to find the right speed of descent. I don't want to go so fast that its out of control but I also don't want to waste energy going super slow.

After Macenkos I'm planning on adding some paused bench back into my routine. That always helps with power of the chest plus you have to be a bit more controlled with the descent because you stop instead of that immediate reversal.

Yeah im kinda the same, i tend to rush my decent of the bar and as a result can bounce too much. But too slow makes it way harder.

I think the pause benching would be great to bring back soon, i liked CG bench with pause and chains. That sh.it helped power development a lot.

Looking forward to week 4 for me, got couple of 270 sets, recon ill smash them mate

Paused with chains sounds like win, I'll definitely have a go at that

Week 4 is a bit tough with the jump to 90% after the preceding volume.

Nice, ill have to bring my A game for the rest of macenkos. I really would love 340 on bench mate.

Are deadlifts going to be rested till next year for you? Any last year resolutions to pull a 520 or something.?

[Juggernaut0]

Noice benching Woodman. Glad you stopped before you cramped up that back any further.

Nah no plans for heavy deads right now. I'm gonna finish up this training cycle then evaluate where I'm at. I'm not sure what I'm going to do next- there's a lot of things I want to try right now
