W1 Bench

August 2, 2022

Week 1. Back from holidays filled with lots of hiking, walking, canoeing, swimming, etc. Looking forward to lifting again. Also have a little weight loss challenge starting that's going to be counted by percentage of overall bodyweight loss per week. Tallies are on Sunday's too which will stop any Friday/Saturday binge meals. 263.2# to start yesterday. Holy crap it's already effecting reps…

Doing a Jobe bench cycle. Using the axle for this cycle to see if it effects my shoulder. 

Shoulder Mobility - way more flexible after not lifting in a week and a half. 

Axle Bench Press 116k x 3/3/3/3/8

Axle 2 Board Bench 97.5k x 11/6/5

EZ Incline Skullcrushers 65 x 20/20/15

Ring Row x 20/20/15

EZ Curl 3/7 Method with 65# x 3 cluster sets - way tougher than sets of 20
