Been a while since I posted in here and major strength gains have been made but at the expense of my waist line. Hoping to retain 90% of the gains through the next cut. 2-3 more weeks of bulking with some big milestones on the horizon

Goals: 350 bench: (surpassed)
450 squat: currently around 440,
495 Deadlift: currently at 475, failed 500 last deadlift session

First day on the classic bro split and hitting chest.

Flat Bench: 2 warm up sets, 265x8, 285x5, 315x3, and an ugly 365x1 (10lb PR and new 1RM)

Incline machine (plate loaded): 2x15@192, 2x8@282

Weighted dips, forward lean: 4x10 with a 45lb plate extremely slow tempo

Machine Flyes (Pec deck): 4x25@100lbs pump work with constant tension

Well I had my meet today, and it didn’t really go as I expected. The meet was in a CrossFit gym in Abbeville, and it was probably 90+ degrees in there.

I went 5/9 and totaled 457.5 kg, which is actually 5lbs less than my total last November.

I hit my opener on Squat (335lb) and was flagged for depth on my second attempt (345). I was so focused on depth for my third attempt (352) that I got too deep and couldn’t get out of the hole.

Bench was a struggle and I was so flustered at this point that I jumped commands on my first two attempts. I ended up keeping my opener (231lb) for my third attempt just so I wouldn’t bomb out the meet.

I definitely redeemed myself with Deadlifts. My first two attempts (407 and 424 respectively) flew up. I ended up hitting and 11lb PR by pulling 440 for my third attempt.

I’m definitely disappointed, but the only thing I can do is learn from it and get better for next time.
