    Competition Squat
    [Olympic Bar + Collars + 2x45 lbs + 2x10 lbs = 155 lbs]
    5 Reps - form check okay, maybe work on depth

    2 Reps - good

    [Olympic Bar + Collars + 6x45 lbs = 315 lbs]
    2 Reps - not terrible, but rushed second rep on the way down with a bit of a dive bomb. Need to keep control, building up the tension for the pop up at the bottom instead of losing the tightness.



    [Olympic Bar + Collars + 6x45 lbs + 2x10 lbs = 335 lbs] RPE 8
    1 Reps - felt more like 8.5, maybe even a 9 if I'm being honest.

    [Olympic Bar + Collars + 4x45 lbs + 2x10 lbs = 245 lbs] RPE 8
    3 Reps - went to 3 reps to feel like RPE 8, I guess 255 lbs would have been a better weight for 1 rep at RPE 8

    6 Reps - yup, oops this was supposed to be RPE 8. I'll drop the weight for the repeats.

    [Olympic Bar + 2x25 lbs + 2x10 lbs + 2x5 lbs = 125 lbs] RPE 8 - 2R
    6 Reps - that felt more controlled like an RPE 8
    6 Reps - yup

    1 Reps - nice and slow, taking a +10 minute rest, fainting feelings with blood pressure are worrying me.


    [Olympic Bar + Collars + 8x45 lbs + 2x10 lbs = 425 lbs] - RPE 8
    1 Reps - got it nice and slow but I lost some back tightness when I lost focus and never got it back, so there's slight back rounding, not too bad though. Next time focus on keeping braced at the bottom and pull it faster. This slow speed is not helping me lol

    Thanks brother!

    I'm loving this forever bulk, but it comes at the cost of bit too much extra fat. The time is coming when I have to face the music and start the long cut. But that's for another day, so today we feast! Hazzah!

    You know, I've been using C4 Ultimate (clear) for months now and it's probably my favorite standard pre-workout. I normally buy it in bulk to keep the cost down:
    https://cellucor.com/products/c4-ultimate-60-serv-stack

    I've also been working with Redcon1 Total War pre workout, and it's very comparable to C4 Ultimate (clear), but I still prefer C4 Ultimate. Still, I cycle through them so I don't get too used to one formula.

    I've also been trying out some more exotic pre-workouts. (CAUTION: EXTREME)

    Dark Energy (specifically Orange Research) is delicious, has unbelievable focus and incredible energy that lasts for at least 6 hours, sometimes feeling at least some of the effects up to 10/12 hours later. It also just makes me feel really happy. The only issue is that I can't take this more than one or two times a week, and if it's two times a week, it needs to be at least 72 hours later.

    Another exotic I'm trying out is called 1,3 VOLT pre-workout. It's similar to Dark Energy but it takes all of that energy and focus and condenses all of it into a shorter time frame. So it will be even MORE extreme energy and extreme focus, but it will only last for say 3 or 4 hours, and the effects mostly stop 6 to 7 hours later. This one is very extreme and even uncomfortable, but it definitely gets the job done if you need to be able to tap into beast mode. In order to cut back on the extreme nature of it, I'm planning on trying a half scoop of Volt mixed with a scoop of something light like D-Fine 8 Thermogenic pre-workout. If that still feels uncomfortable I'll just donate it to a gym bro or something.

    Honestly, these pre-workouts just make working out so much more fun. I don't really see why I would work out without a pre-workout anymore.

    Always a pleasure to hear from you brother!

    First off those pin squats are strong. The achey shoulders is interesting. Maybe they were just tight? Have you been stretching or using a joint supp to help out?enjoy the rest days

    You know, I've been using C4 Ultimate (clear) for months now and it's probably my favorite standard pre-workout. I normally buy it in bulk to keep the cost down:
    https://cellucor.com/products/c4-ultimate-60-serv-stack

    I've also been working with Redcon1 Total War pre workout, and it's very comparable to C4 Ultimate (clear), but I still prefer C4 Ultimate. Still, I cycle through them so I don't get too used to one formula.

    I've also been trying out some more exotic pre-workouts. (CAUTION: EXTREME)

    Dark Energy (specifically Orange Research) is delicious, has unbelievable focus and incredible energy that lasts for at least 6 hours, sometimes feeling at least some of the effects up to 10/12 hours later. It also just makes me feel really happy. The only issue is that I can't take this more than one or two times a week, and if it's two times a week, it needs to be at least 72 hours later.

    Another exotic I'm trying out is called 1,3 VOLT pre-workout. It's similar to Dark Energy but it takes all of that energy and focus and condenses all of it into a shorter time frame. So it will be even MORE extreme energy and extreme focus, but it will only last for say 3 or 4 hours, and the effects mostly stop 6 to 7 hours later. This one is very extreme and even uncomfortable, but it definitely gets the job done if you need to be able to tap into beast mode. In order to cut back on the extreme nature of it, I'm planning on trying a half scoop of Volt mixed with a scoop of something light like D-Fine 8 Thermogenic pre-workout. If that still feels uncomfortable I'll just donate it to a gym bro or something.

    Honestly, these pre-workouts just make working out so much more fun. I don't really see why I would work out without a pre-workout anymore.

    Always a pleasure to hear from you brother!
    Yeah I dont need my PWO to last that long thats crazy focus for to long. Im not a fan of total war it gives me a weird sensation that makes it feel like im walking in water and kinda foggy. I personally love the promera sports PWO. About to test out evl engn tomorrow for the first time

    Getting STRONG
    I'm starting to get achey shoulders from my low bar squat setup. I'm still not used to it, but I think if I set my grip up a little bit wider it could really help out with shoulder pain.

    For joint supplements, just the normal formula in controlled labs orange triad. I'm considering buying Cissus Quadrangularis based on a bunch of studies:

    Yeah, I'm really not a fan of total war either but I wasn't sure what else could work as a C4 Ultimate substitute. I'll check out promera sports, thanks! But to be honest, I really look forward to the days where I can use Dark Energy and just destroy the gym in hulk mode for 4 hours straight. They're even selling it out of Walmart now so it feels more legit than shady now. It wouldn't surprise me if this kid was on Dark Energy though:

    3 Reps - that was hard af, I just don't have the movement pattern down to be efficient here


    [Olympic Bar + Collars + 2x45 lbs = 135 lbs] 1 F
    5 Reps - tough

    SUPERSET Cool Down

    Wide Pronate Pull Up Cool Down
    [Bodyweight]

    Notes:


    H U L K
    S M A S H

    I learned that my current 1 RM Deadlift is around 425 lbs / 430 lbs

    My elbows are developing a bit of a flare up of tendinitis, so I'll need to keep that in check.

    My knees are feeling fine, a bit uncertain when I was warming up, but after I was warmed up they were fine.

    I think I need to set realistic expectations for my max attempts next week. I'll work on that tonight.

    Workout Duration: 3 Hours 15 Minutes

    Floating the bar into position is where you pull yourself into the deadlift position, making sure your hamstrings and upper back feels tighter and tighter, in the process pulling the slack out of the bar, until finally you're in your starting position for the deadlift. Your position should now be so tight that the bar almost floats off the floor for the first part of the lift just by tightening your muscles a bit. I got the hang of it when I was practicing 2 count pause deadlifts barely off the floor, but now I understand I should be doing this for my conventional deadlifts.

    Yeah, Squats and Deads in the same day. The program is brutal but fair.

    The knee pain is just a bit of tendoninitis, nothing bad. It goes away after I'm warmed up.

    My lower back needs some love, so I'm adding 3 sets of rehab weight reverse hypers, canceling Week 8 Day 4 tomorrow, and adding in the extra bench work today. The extra rest day will be much appreciated going into peak week. 3 days of rest before peak week begins.

    Achey elbows, I just didn't even want to bench tomorrow with this flare up. Let my elbows rest and recover.
