I’m actually reducing a bit haha.
I spent basically 6 months doing bulk and mini cuts to bring up my upper body.
Seems I’m tapped out now and need to start dieting down, so I’m trying to bring things into a more manageable range for fatigue management while I’m adding in cardio.the latest and greatest in training...or whatever.

This was a rather long session lol.
Even playing with some low fatigue concepts it took some time to get through.
Apparently 275x6 on 2ct pause bench was a PR.
Was only doing it as an overwarm single but it felt surprisingly easy I just banged it out for my top set.the latest and greatest in training...or whatever.

This was obviously not the most ideal scenario of training first thing in the morning after a later afternoon workout, but that’s the way it breaks sometimes when you’re a dad lol.
I probably had 325-335 on bench, but was feeling pretty fatigued and I’ll just leave it for a couple weeks.
Probably start implementing my slingshot again too for some overload work. I didn’t have it otherwise I would’ve done some heavier bench work.
Pin squats were surprisingly crisp and easy considering the heavy squat session yesterday and bike cardio I did after.
Shoulder feels good on chin-ups too, so I can at least start doing some heavier vertical pulling again.the latest and greatest in training...or whatever.

Transitioning back into a slightly higher volume phase with higher reps for a bit while the diet continues on.
Leverages are changing a bit so need to get used to them.
I’m also increasing the cardio so no need to kill myself recovery wise.

Off the chest feels a little weak to me right now, so incorporating pin bench now to work on explosiveness.
I think I milked my standard bench for along time now. Close to 8/9 months?, so gonna be heavy on variations for a while as I work on weak points. To see if we can keep that bench creeping up as I continue my fat loss phase.

Felt very easy
Paused High Bar Squat

Also very easy
Lifts were surprisingly strong considering how ****ty I felt so I’ll take it.the latest and greatest in training...or whatever.

Did some fuk around workouts for a couple days then took a few days off to visit my parents.
Todays workout order is a bit weird but gym was busy so made it work.
Trying to balance strength + hypertrophy work is getting tough on this diet and with the time I have.
So gonna play with doing just enough strength work to see if I can maintain or progress slightly while dedicating more time to bodybuilding work.
We will see how bored I get before I switch things up lol.

Pretty solid today today.
Things felt a little more in sync although my hips shot up a tiny bit quick on deadlifts today. Not the end of the work though, they were generally in the same spot as usual when breaking the floor.
Generally I’m just using straps these days with my tendinitis flaring up.
My hook grip is on par with straps for singles, so I’m not losing much.
But with the injuries to my left hand the last handful of years I try to limit the stress on it

Standing Calf Raise (Machine)
Set 1: 160 lb × 30 Rep giant set
I had been getting some niggling knee and hip pain in my left knee.
Usually a sign to swap exercises, so hitting up hacks and pendulum squats it seems to feel better.
It could be from all the driving for work too. When that increases I tend to get some issues creep into my left side. The QL muscle was flaring up too.
I might play with squats again next week and I’d the knee feels fine I’ll maybe swap it back in.the latest and greatest in training...or whatever.

Push
Incline Bench Press
265×4 , 235×8
this was a dumb dumb sleepy dad move. I meant to load 245 but wasn’t paying attention and tossed an extra 10 on either side.
at least I know why it was tougher than I expected after 225 moved easy.
because of that I just did 235×8 and called it there.
Iso lateral hammer strength shoulder press
250×11,9
i got a few extra reps than I expected so I kept the load the same for my 2nd set.
Hammer Strength Incline Press
250×9, 200×11
Single Arm Cable Press Around
40×10/8/6
cluster set. I’ve been playing with this movement for a few weeks and it’s pretty enjoyable. I definitely feel a big contraction.
I’m not sure how much benefit it is, but I’ll give it a little longer. My concern is mainly regarding long term loading, but placing it later as a finisher is a solid option to keep res higher and weight lower.
