W11 GGW2 Dead’s
April 2, 2026
Week 11 GGW2. Paused first work set of dead's.
Deadlift 495 x 4 x 2r
SLDL 435 x 6r - looked back at my programming and I'm only supposed to be going to 6 reps now. Easier than the 425 last week.
Sissy Squat +80 x 5/10/10r - felt like these were going to be much tougher with the weight mass further back holding dumbbells to my sides. Little bit. Just different to get used to more than anything.

W2 Conj Bench
March 26, 2026
W2 Conjugate bench day. Lowering the bar a little higher. Seems to feel better. Started with 3 chains but in the future I should use 2. I should run a couple of cycles with 3 though now that I've started. Just too high of a percentage of my 1RM.
Axle Bench w/3c ~54k
139.5/149.5/159.5k x 1 - good starting weight
134.5k x 3/3/5
T-Bar Row 90 x 8, 100 x 8
Horizontal Cable Extension 40 x 5/12/12 - stay here. Left shoulder was pretty gimpy to start with. Last couple of reps were tough on the left.
Nautilus Curl 100 x 5, 120 x 10
Between Sets W2D1
Axle 228 x 3 x 10 - accidentally did 3 sets
2x5 Saxon 155 x 5 x 3r
DB Wrist Curl 60e x 2 x 10r - grabbed it really uneven with my first set on the left.

W3 Squats & W1D2 grip. First day playing with my new hack squat machine.
SSB Box Squat 171.5k x 3 x 3r
Low Foot Hack Squat (plate weight) 180 x 5/8/8/8r - finding my working weight. Give a couple of weeks for my knees to adapt.
GHR x 3 x 5r
Between Sets
Axle Deadlift 223 x 10 - good enough. Don't want a back pump for squats with a true 10+ set
2x5 Saxon Deadlift 155 x 4 x 3r
DB Wrist Curl 60e x 2 x 10r

W1 Conj Bench
March 17, 2026
W1 Conjugate Bench. Using the pin press today. Keeping the triceps focus and with the shortened RoM hopefully my shoulder doesn't get angry.
