Bench, Pulls & Belching Fish Oil

September 20, 2013

Felt good today for benching. Makes one helluva difference if my pipes aren't ripped up from armwrestling. Last week to this was night and day.

Pulls felt good. I decided to throw in the snatch grip pulls to get the volume up and man it was good for getting svetty :). I ended up only doing two sets and dropped back my front squats to two sets as well. Enough for this fat guy.

Arm Stuff

September 19, 2013

Well I've probably been playing with my new heavy Metal Powerball too much the last few days but that's ok. I missed AW practice last night and there probably won't be another one until Matt gets back from kicking ass at Armwars right away.

Just did a bit of work during the lunch hour and some more here before supper. Nothing really scheduled but I'm really looking forward to tomorrow's deads and front squats to knock the DOMS out of my legs lol!

DB curls up to a few sets of 5-6 with 65#

EZ AW curls up to a couple sets of 10 with 115#

Played with my circus bell.

Worked up to a couple sets of 8 with my Maz style handle at 35# doing wrist curls.

2-3/8" wrist roller for a few continuous reps each way with 80#

Squats n Pinch n Stuff

September 17, 2013
Before Supper

Had to look back in my records; today was the first time squatting over 400# since June 10 and that was the first time since May 6. Should be pretty interesting to see where I'm sitting once I start pushing singles in a few weeks.

I also marked up my chain on the Blobexxe so I can record progress and such. Best lifts after I marked it up ended up being 13 links lifted out of 15.

Squat
WU to 405 x 3 x 3r
315 x 10r

Shoulder Shocker
35/10 x 10-10-8

Busted up the workout for a nooner and a bit before supper. Felt good other than my joints feeling a bit wrecked from last nights armwrestling practice. I'm also pretty sure my bench has regressed to 305-315. Oh well, I can just keep pushing it up again.

Bench & Pull

September 6, 2013
Before Supper

I went and tried my regular bench again after yesterday's bugger up. I went to do my reverse grip stuff at lunch yesterday and something let loose in my palm from my left ring finger down. I ended up setting the bar down on my chest with 275, repositioned and pressed out a single. Figured I'd leave it alone and try again today. I can feel the regular bench again in my bicep and right shoulder but I took some Advil and carried on.

1) Bench Press
WU to 275 x 3 x 3r
275 w/Red Slingshot x 7, 8
