SUPPLEMENT NOTES
Universal Shock Therapy - Jersey Fresh Peach Tea
I think the flavor is really growing on me. I am going to try it with some Stevia per the reps suggestion, it supposed to taste more like sweet tea

iSatori Restoraid
Sadly this was my last pack of Restoraid, but stay tuned as they were nice enough to send me some PWR samples to review. As soon as I get them I will review them! Big Thanks to the People at iSatori for being so generous and letting me try this product out. Restoraid is a great supplement for those looking for better recovery, nice pumps and consistent energy. I would recommend giving it a try!.



CONDITIONING
Skipped condition because I had to run a few errands during my gym break



RECOVERY
10 minutes
Foam Rolling
Basically repeating the areas I rolled to warm up




THE PAYOFF

[ulsak]

I only ever wrap two

Ok, there goes that excuse.. I reckon it's just about grip stength and consistenscy. Game is on. Hook grips it is then.

IMO hook has nothing to do with grip strength....just pain tolerance. I think it just takes grip out of the deadlift equation....unless it slips you won't miss a dead because of grip.

FWIW I have pretty big hands and I can't get 3 fingers over my thumb.

[ddog171]

Nice rep PR. Do you think you wil go back to the restoraid?

[DieselsMom]

phew gonna get bigger muscles just subbing the journal with all the testosterone in this place

[bigwade800]

Not really, I'm not that strong.

You're on your way up and it won't be long before you far eclipse anything I've ever done and do it at a lighter body weight and not look like an ogre.

The only way I can see this as a possibility is with your constant encouragement and guidance

[bigwade800]

It's really how the sport should work. We should all pay forward the things we learn and help. Yes, I get paid and I can't do everything free but, we all should be pitching in and helping so, there will be a day when there will be a young guy needing some questions answered, remember our conversations and pay it forward.

I already do that. I pass on everything you teach me to the young guys at my gym. I think about this everytime I get annoyed when someone interrupts my training to ask questions

[Big_Spaz]

Loving the log Harry and great work!

Also big thanks to Big Wade for stopping by the log and offering his guidance/advice. I always enjoy coming in here and seeing the positive/encouraging words you guys go back and forth with. Definitely keeps us all motivated! Great work!

I bought a pair of DTP Knee wraps. I was excited to try them out. I was a little concerned that they fasten at the end with velcro. I go down for my first set with them and the f*cking velcro pad ripped right off. I was pissed luckily I still had my old pair. I also got to try my buddy's Inzer wraps and I loved them. I may just buy a pair from them.

CHANGE IN GAME PLAN
So as some of you know I was planning on doing a meet the first weekend of March. That is up in the air right now because we have an opportunity to go on a vacation that week where all we have to pay for is our plane tickets (in-laws rented a lake house). If I can make the meet will still do it and just have my week of rest before the meet. We have to make final plans before I can make that call though. Either way I want to stop being such a fatty, so I decided to make a few changes.

Change #1: Stop Eating like a fatty!
This one is simple but will be the hardest for me. I know what to eat an even when I am f*cking up the most but the key will be and always is will power.

Change #2: Back to REAL Conditioning Work!
I will be attacking this by doing less volume on the Assistance work, and doing less walking. I am doing to start each workout with some Foam Rolling and light warmup work, then hit my core lift, followed by 3 sets of 10 on assistance moves supersetted whenever possible. Leaving as much time as possible for Conditioning Work

Change #3: Weighing in Every Morning
I am not going to do this to obsess over a number but more to try to keep myself accountable. Usually keeping this practice does a whole lot of good for m
