Yes and no. Right now I'm cutting and have a limited schedule. So my focus is compound exercises and cardio.

And I add a half hour of cardio after every session. Takes me 90 minutes all together

Dude same to you! Squat strength wnt up on cut and everything else went down a little, as to be expected, cutting hasn't been too good, just really started getting strict now so I'm a little late to the party hahaha

Well tbh it really hasn't. Deadlft is the same. Squat is stronger. OHP got a little ****ed because I tore something in my wrist, that's about it brah

Really solid squat day, first set of 315 was super smooth and easy, pushing a little below parallel, second set wasn't a grinder either! Wrist is feeling better during OHP, now it's just strengthening my shoulders back to where they were, pull-ups were easier today, maybe because of weight loss

I always make the mistake of wearing a tank when it's time for front squats, the bar always slips off my shoulders because I'm sweaty. So I took some chalk and rubbed it all over my shoulders after the first set and that did the trick

[GROSO]

You ever gone lift?

[jd007914]

Not sure if I'm fully back, so busy brah, laborer 10 cent a day Hahahaha.

[DeaAx7]

how do you hold the bar for front squats?

if your elbows are high enough that shouldn't be an issue.

Cross armed brah

personally oly style work much better for me. i grew up on it.

the weight should rest firmly on your delts, the weight should't be held by your arms. i'm sure you know this.

this will sound weird but trust me. the bar should be touching your throat.

pedigree/ credentials = collegiate oly lifting.

-apologies for my grammatical errors-

I feel like it's finally normalish now! Squat has been taking off my man it's all about that form

Dude I've come to terms with the fact I am a "strength trainer" just doing a compilation of lifts I love and progressing as much as I can with them. If anything my routine is more PL and less BB

Looking back over these last week's of workouts it seems like you're making progress man, good to be back in this log!
