Thanks dude!
That game was nuts
Im digging Chicagoland

Way to beast up that early Monday session woodman

Thanks dude! It's a good way to kick off the week!

Coffee? how can one live without coffee
we are americans.

This

Are you doing pendaly rows or barbell rows standing? Your benching is really strong for volume!

Thanks dude! I'm doing regular bent over rows rather than pendlays

That 240x8 is some strong bb rowing woodman, excellent work

Thanks big guy! Gotta work that back!

Mirin' ops strength and gainz

Thanks pastor!

Solid benching as always wood man. I'd take 310 on an off day with another rep in the tank, and that 265x5x5 volume is crazy.


I was very hesitant to try it out. I'm not a huge fan of Lucky Charms. I love marshmallow cereals, but I still prefer a cereal that could stand on its own without the marshmallows, and the Lucky Charms cereal pieces are sub par at best. I was pleasantly surprised by the Chocolate Lucky Charms though, the cereal pieces are surprisingly good.

Thanks dude! 265 is a tough volume session! Rest times are 5+ min by the final sets

I can't get into chocolate cereals

Lol I do love my cereal

[jjeane]

Nice Squats Woody! Any fun plans for the weekend?

[Woody-5]

Friday 1.29.16
Heavy pressing

Bench
315x1
*not a Max effort, but I don't think I had much chance at a second rep

BB Row
135x10
185x10
225x10
260x10

OHP
160x5
*hit my nose on the 5th rep, surprised it didn't bleed. Still finished the rep cause that's how I roll

how do you like the narrow squats?

Narrow is my normal stance, it works best for me, esp with my hips
The wide stance is tough, but I feel I'm benefitting from them

Nice Squats Woody! Any fun plans for the weekend?

Thanks double J!
No plans as of yet, prob take the kids out to run errands Saturday and then go from there
How about you? How are my cows doing?

[The Solution]

wow.. 160 on your nose and no bleed? Thats hardcore.
Have a good weekend.

[nads786]

Beastly OH press! Remind me again you started lifting doing 5/3/1 correct?

[jjeane]

I see your beautiful lifting buddy there!!!
Sorry about the nose but welcome to the club! Haha, I normally get my chin. And even though I have done it more than once it still happens.
Your cows are good. Baby Rosa says Hi to your early morning sessions!

[Woody-5]

Had a nice accessory day on Saturday, smashed some nice Bicepticon work.
Hammered out a 250 5x5 bench on Monday (slight reset in weight)
Unfortunately on my second warmup set of BB rows, my hip/ si joint popped and has been sore as FU since. It's my left side which is a change because it's always been the right side before.
If I do anything tomorrow I will avoid anything that puts tension on that area.


Sitting in that 185-190 range and feeling pretty lean this week

wow.. 160 on your nose and no bleed? Thats hardcore.
Have a good weekend.

Thanks dude! Weekend was great!
How's the new job going?

Beastly OH press! Remind me again you started lifting doing 5/3/1 correct?

Thanks dude! I started lifting with starting strength. Then I threw in some madcows and then some 5/3/1

I see your beautiful lifting buddy there!!!

[fittofattofit]

Beautiful rep Woody! Smooth and controlled
Cool effort to scrape the tip off your nose as well with the OHPs

Sitting in that 185-190 range and feeling pretty lean this week

Looking big and lean Woody .... you're in a great place to hit the beach at the first spring day
Bummer about the facet/SIJ .... just hate that sh!t. Hopefully that's all settled now and you didn't put it out again on the weekend

[Woody-5]

Busy week, haven't had time to update. the kiddos and I are settled into our new routine on the Homefront. One of the girls at my work has been coming over and babysitting one night a week so I can go out and unwind a little bit.

Took it easy last week and my si joint started feeling better after about two days. I hit a full rotation this week:
Volume pressing Monday w/ bench and OHP
Cube speed squats on Wednesday which felt great considering I missed squatting the previous week.
Heavy press on Friday and I smashed 285x3 bench and then threw up a 315x1 that felt better than the one two weeks ago. OHP I only managed a slow 170x1.

I've been hitting the treadmill 5-6 days a week for a little bit- a run to warmup and then after my session I put it on full incline and hit 15-20min. Feels good

Thanks dude! SIJ felt better after a few days.
Pleased with my leanness at this point of the winter- it should make for an easy cut into shred mode when spring arrives!

[jjeane]

Glad you guys are settling into a new routine! Was starting to get worried about you! LOL!
Glad the si joint is feeling better!

[fittofattofit]

That 315 looked easy Woody! Cool training mate you've got there as well

[Sparta11]

Always good stuff in here Woody. Grats on being somewhat lean in February. Should definitely be shredded in no time.

[MatTheCur]

[jeezyreezy]
