Had probably the best workout I can remember earlier this week and the worst today. 2 month old wouldnt sleep after getting her shots yesterday, slept on my shoulder weird, and go out to grab my old adipowers, hats, and gym bag I let air out on the car port over night... someone stole them... worst thieves ever. Decided to take a deload day and cut the volume and intensity a good bit.


Strict Press: 2sets 145x5, 1 set 145 x 11
Deadlift: 1 set 320x10
Tried some chins, wasn't feeling it, left.

Should be good and fresh Sunday.

I was doing 5 sec holds at the top since the weight was relatively light on those shrugs.

Yep another tool in the tool box and I love tools...and shoes. Been using them on my second squat day of the week on pause squats to emphasize quad involvement out of the hole and I feel they take pressure off the lower back for a little easier recovery. I have some Reebok Nanos and JJ Watts I'll have to use in the meantime, have retired the Converse.


Shopping around today. Not sure if I am going to go Adipower or something cheaper like the Adidas Powerlift or Pendlay Do-Wins for half the price.

I found great deals on adipowers on eBay when I got mine.

Somebody didn't like the fit and sold it to me for 50.

Oh snap, pro tip! Going to check out ebay tonight.

Also need to replace some knee sleeves, straps, wrist wraps, homemade fractional plates, and some homemade liquid chalk.. but those aren't as essential as some sweet arse shoes.

I found gangsta wrist wraps for 21 on eBay. Those are very very nice.

That ain’t strong lifts lol. Stop with the bro lifts. Add chins and dips and call it a day. All those other lifts are doing is fatiguing your cns even further.

Yesterday was a solid day at the gym, much better than the last.

1. Bench - 2x5, 1x9
2. Low Bar Squat - 2x5, 1x10
3. One arm Barbell Row - Swapped these out with Yates row. Lats are screaming with doms today.
4. Facepulls
5. One Arm Dumbbell flat bench
6. Reverse Shrugs - Just getting some upper trap activation. Mostly preventative shoulder work, been pounding the lower/mid traps lately. Felt like I was having some scapula mobility issues and shoulder depression is a risk for me.

Need some help!

First workout during 4 week rest period. Not exactly sure what to do, honestly.

This is what I went with for today. It felt good, but not sure if I am being productive or if I can do this 5 days a week without tiring.

Warmed up with 1 mile brisk (I will forever use this term) walk.

Rowing machine:
1000m at 31 rows/minute on tension level 7 (I know all tension levels differ)
3 sets total

Legs were rubber, heart rate up good, arms starting to tire.
Core didnt feel worn nor overly used. Form remained good and rate remained steady through end of last set.

What can I add or do differently? I dont mind doing this MWF, but TU and TH need something different.
