285 x 4
285 x 4
285 x 4
285 x 4

365 x 2
285 x 10
NOTES: 285 x 10 sucked.

(2) LOW BAR SQUATS
405 x 3
415 x 2
NOTES: I love the high bar/low bar combo, but the ort rep scheme really exhausted my core which made going very heavy on these difficult. Did love feeling 4 plates on my back.

(3) BENCH PRESS
135 x 8
225 x 8
275 x 8
300 x 8
315 x 8
NOTES: Chest was still very sore. Upset at how difficult 315 x 8 felt :/. I feel that I could only get 10-12 .

(4) SNATCH GRIP DEADLIFTS
315 x 2
365 x 2
365 x 2
NOTES My whole body was sore going into this workout...especially my back. These really hit my mid back/lats really hard

(5) RDLS
365 x 3
NOTES: Core was shot at this point, needed to call it a day.

Yea I was way too lazy to set up for deficit DLs. Grip was the length of the bar easily.

[Ironlife]

You must a nice wingspan for a snatch grip on a 7ft bar brah!

Sweet benching im mirin

I always assumed since I was so awesome at pressing and so crappy at deadlifting that I just had short arms. I guess at 6'4 it'd be hard to have short arms, but yea my gym only has your std. olympic bars and I covered it easily.

Was 315x8 difficult or what bro?

Yea. I mean I could of probably eeked out 2 more reps if I had a spotter but that probably woulda been it. I was still sore from neck pressing on Friday. And I am not super duper at repping things out, like I think I could only bench 225 maybe 27 times? My bread and butter is 3 reps.

Yeah 225x27 really isnt good enough...

315x10 would be some nice viewing

Well I mean there are people who bench under 405 who can rep 225 in the 30s. 27 is a complete guess on my part.

[musicianman]

Can we get a video of you overhead pressing or push pressing 3 plates?

[-Lucifer]

Nice to see your rack pulls go up. I really would like to see a video. Can't believe you rack pull less than you pull from the floor.


Editar
How many dips did you do?

[pezking7p]

Good work in herrr. I would also like to see some vids.

[PowderMonkey]

X 3 on the vid request.

I'm about to go to the gym for my squat and press session. And I am jealous.

[matt297]

he made nachos?

[im2manly]

Can we get a video of you overhead pressing or push pressing 3 plates?

We'll see, I think I still have a 275 seated OHP somewhere in the journal. After all the flack I get with the vids they are almost more trouble than they are worth. Especially when I don't personally use the vids for anything.

Editar
How many dips did you do?

Yea Rack pulls seem to be a good indicator of my conventional deadlift...as the rack pulls go up so does my DL. As for Dips I did 5 sets of varying reps some 5, other 3, others 8. I don't really record dip reps since my RC can be a huge limiting factor on some days, so I base a lot of it off of feel.

Good work in herrr. I would also like to see some vids.

Thanks

when I come back my routine is probably going to be circuit/cardio/cross-fit-ish. At least that's the plan.

LET ME EXPLAIN: Boy's today was my first day even touching a weight in 1.5 months. Obviously I was rusty, but took it easy. My endurance was pretty god awful though and this workout above took me like an hour...worked up a nice sweat. 'Twas a riveting session back...except for benching being alot heavier than I thought it would be.

[Farley1324]

Bench = squat = lame

[Jrahe42]

I thought i would never catch you in the bench, there is hope after all.
