Bulgarian split squats: 3x5@95 (holy shite this hurt)


95lb barbell or 95lb dumbbells? I usually do my heavy set with 55-60lb dumbbells. About the only exercise that makes me feel like puking

Barbell. I used my trap bar at my sides and went down until the weight hit the floor. I normally do that weight for 3x10 and 5 had me almost keeled over amazing what small changes in leverage can do

Tonight had to rush a little, did my normal warm up and then trying to include some wenning warm up principles so knocked out some quick pushups on the KBs. Also did couple sub max sets of chins

Workout

Ring pushups- 3 sets of 15, slow, controlled and ring turn out at top

Supersetted with

Strict kb rows- I do these with one hand on a kb on the ground and do these like a penalay row but strict back, alternating hands


Then did 3 sets of kb swings-70lbs x 10 reps per set

Last I hit bodyweight ring rows.

Nothing special, nothing fancy or crazy, just trying to be consistent and do the fricking work with the limited time I have now that baseball is in full swing for my kids.

Did a 10000 kettlebells workout. Only used 44lbs and it still kicked my butt. I decided to do weighted pullups in between sets. I'm expect to be hurting tomorrow, but will definitely work this in more often

Called it at 400 today. This was my first time and wanted to see how my body reacts before I push up to 500. I'm not going to do the full month right now, but I'll probably start doing this 1x a week as a supplement to my normal lifting. I liked the intensity.

Tonight I did death by emom

15 rounds of each supersetted emom

Press with 36lbs bells for 7 reps
Fat neutral grip chins for 4 reps

3 rounds of
Kb goblet squat with 5 second pause at bottom-70lbs 5 reps

Supersetted with

Banded face pull- 20 reps

Then did some bicep work doing "21's" with the 26lbs kbs then 18lbs bells then 13lbs bells with about 1 min rest between sets.

Not a bad way to end the weekend after spending all weekend at the baseball field with my boys.

Tomorrow starts a new week to wake up and kick arse.

Oh and did my weigh in and am down to 195.4, so 12 lbs down since start of lent.

Deadlifts have kind of fallen off lately. I've been more focused on getting back to 100% on bench and OHP so DL's have been put on the backburner. The good news is my shoulder issues are pretty much gone. Bad news is so's a lot of my upper body strength.

so long as you didnt lose much muscle, should come back quick. What are you doing to keep the shoulder pain away?
