Why in the world are you logging in kg's? lol
Glad you're still getting after it. I know you've had some set backs and I admire your perseverance.

LOL years ago when started doing some powerlifting meets, I had made the decision that since meets are done in kg's, I would transition my training over to kg's. I then picked up a set of York kg plates. However, at the time I was living in a small condo without enough room to set up a home gym, so I was still lifting at the gym where they only had lb plates. We finally bought a house with room to set up a home gym, so now I'm finally using my stuff.
Now I'm not sure what I want to do. I do think having kg weights is cool and the metric system just makes more sense, but kg's will take some time getting used to and it's much more difficult to find kg plates (I only have 120 kg / ~265 lbs) of plates right now.Powerlifting Log - http://tinyurl.com/jshaw5

BW - 242.0 lbs
Warmup
Airdyne - 4 min
McGill Curl Up - 10 reps x 10 seconds
Bird Dogs - 10 reps
Band Pull Aparts - 10 reps
Band Dislocates - 5 reps
Banded TKE's - 20 reps each leg
Banded Good Morning - 12 reps
Hatfield Squats
30 kg x 10 reps
50 kg x 10 reps
70 kg (154 lbs) x 10 reps
80 kg (176 lbs) x 10 reps
90 kg (198 lbs) x 10 reps
I alternate between these and regular SSB squats. I had been squatting with no shoes, but decided to throw on my Adipowers today, which felt a ton better.
Bench (Feet Up)
20 kg x 10 reps
40 kg x 5 reps
60 kg x 5 reps
75 kg x 5 reps
90 kg (198 lbs) x 5 reps x 2
90 kg (198 lbs) x 10 reps
I was going to do ascending sets, but I forgot to add weight after the first set lol. Instead I banged out an AMRAP on the last set, though technically not an AMRAP because I had another rep or two in the tank.
Band Pull Aparts
Mini Band x 10 reps x 3
Between bench warmups. I had been doing face pulls with a band, but the mofo snapped and blasted me in the face lol. For now I'm doing these between bench warmups until I get a cable setup.
Ring Rows
BW x 8 reps x 3
Between bench work sets. Going to work on these and negatives for a bit before I start doing full pullups again.
Curls
22 kg x 12 reps x 3
Slingshot Close Grip Bench
80 kg (176 lbs) x 10 reps x 3
So everything to do with lifting is still very inconsistent. I typically get in 1-2 workouts per week. Even when I record a set or two, most time I never get around to logging it here or putting it on instagram. I've made a little progress on getting my gym to a more complete state, but I still have a way to go. I made DIY fat pads for both my benches, that was my most pressing need since the pads on both benches were way too narrow. I have a gun rack for my bars that's been setting in the box for a month. I got mono hooks with the intention of using them for bench, but they stick out so far that if I keep them mounted on one side of the rack, I can't squat inside the rack on the other side. I think I'm going to set up the mono hooks outside of the rack and get some spotter arms for benching there. I'm also looking for like a lat pulldown with a low pulley so I can do pulldowns, rows, face pulls, pushdowns, etc. I'll post more pics when it's closer to completion.Powerlifting Log - http://tinyurl.com/jshaw5

Just barely lol.
I'm fat, weak, and my back is stupid, but other than that life is good. We just bought a house a few months ago, twins just turned three, and the older one turns eight in a few weeks. How's everything going for you? How's the family? Are you still lifting?
I really like it. I really like when I'm finished with my main bench work, I can toss the slingshot on and do some close grip without having to drop the weight way down. Plus it's always fun throwing it on to bench some weights you normally wouldn't touch lol.Powerlifting Log - http://tinyurl.com/jshaw5

Programming? Update
This will be the end of the whatever I feel like doing that day workouts. I haven't quite decided the rate of progression, but it will follow a familiar layout of 2x/week alternating between 4x7 and 5x5 with linear progression. Still deciding on accessory lifts, which is limited while I'm looking for some kind of cable machine.
SSB Squats
30 kg x 10 reps
50 kg x 7 reps
70 kg (154 lbs) x 7 reps x 4
Right knee was feeling a little weird, so I didn't go as heavy as I planned. Probably a better idea to start lighter as I try to get more consistent with progression.
Bench (Feet Up)
20 kg x 10 reps
40 kg x 5 reps
60 kg x 5 reps
75 kg x (165 lbs) x 7 reps x 4
Again decided to start off the new progression on the lighter side. These were pretty easy.

So I've been mixing in some more accessories. I picked up a Bowflex a couple weeks ago. I know the Bowflex gets a lot of hate on this board, but it was free so I figured why the hell not. I quickly saw why it gets so much hate lol. The thing provides no resistance at the top, it doesn't move smoothly at all, and it runs out of range of motion pretty quickly. But it's better than nothing and will tide me over until I can find a decent cable machine.

So I finally got around to organizing my home gym a bit more. The rack is a sumo rack made by Crepinsek (it's an absolute tank). The mono hooks and j-cups are made by Titan. I have a flat bench and an FID, both made by Tuff Stuff, just covered both with DIY fat pads. For bars I have an EliteFTS Yoke bar, a York B&R bar, and a cheap curl bar. For weights I just have 120kg of vintage York plates with spinlock collars. I picked up a bowflex (for free) so I can do some cable accessories. Picked up an airdyne for some cardio (that I usually skip lol). A bunch of miscellaneous stuff include vintage York stands, bands, landmine, ab wheel, sling shots, gymnastic rings, paralettes, foam rollers, etc.
It's still a work in progress. I definitely need to pick up more weight, I'd like to pick up another Olympic bar plus a swiss bar, trap bar, etc. The bowflex is better than nothing, but I'm not a huge fan, so I'll eventually replace it with some kind of cable stack machine.

These felt really good, even threw in a pause on the last rep last set.
Bench (Feet Up)
20 kg x 10 reps
40 kg x 7 reps
60 kg x 7 reps
75 kg x 7 reps
90 kg (198 lbs) x 7 reps x 4
Put my feet down for the last set.
Face Pulls
80 lbs x 12 reps x 3
Ring Rows
BW x 8 reps x 3
Paused Slingshot Bench
120 kg (265 lbs) x 3 reps
125 kg (276 lbs) x 3 reps
130 kg (287 lbs) x 3 reps
Bench was feeling good and it's been a while since I've done anything really heavy, so I decided to throw on the slingshot and see what happens. Considering I haven't done anything heavy or paused anything in a while, and I've barely benched with my feet on the floor, I was pretty happy with how this went. In the past, my 3RM with the blue slingshot has been approximately my 1RM raw, so that probably puts me around 285-290.

Airdyne HIIT
3 minutes moderate pace warmup
10 seconds max effort, 20 seconds moderate pace x 4 cycles
2 minutes moderate pace cooldown
Even for just 40 seconds total, I was so gassed, I'm really out of shape lol. I'll probably switch to some steady state, do longer "rides" at a moderate pace to build up my endurance, then slowly work in some intervals.

I need to try to start rating RPE on these. They're getting tough, but I'm sure I could still hit at least 3-4 more reps if I really pushed it.
Bench (Feet Up)
20 kg x 10 reps
40 kg x 5 reps
60 kg x 5 reps
80 kg x 5 reps
96.25 kg (212 lbs) x 5 reps x 5
I've gone back and forth about putting my feet on the floor, but I think I'm just going to keep progressing like this until it gets too hard, then I'll switch. Or I might change my mind next workout lol.

90 lbs x 12 reps x 3

Airdyne
10 minutes moderate pace
I probably won't go much (if any) longer than 10 minutes, probably just work on increasing my pace. I still need to see if I can get the screen on this thing working so I can actually have something to track besides just overall time.
Programming
I'm still doing both squats and bench twice/week, alternating between 85% of TM for 5x5 and 80% of TM for 7x4. Squats I bump up the TM 2 kg each workout and round to the nearest 2.5 kg. Bench TM is bumped 1 kg each workout and I round to the nearest 1.25 kg. I'm going to stick with the current layout for a bit longer, but eventually I might split the squat and bench out into upper and lower days and bump it up to 3-4 days/week. I might also add sets of triples into the rotation with the 5's and 7's and stick with the same TM for cycles.Powerlifting Log - http://tinyurl.com/jshaw5
