re: Daily Strength Check-In

Recovery upper. 3 giant sets of weighted, feet elevated pushups, band rows, side laterals and banded bench. Then finished with bloodflow restriction biceps.

Decided to do heavy single deadlifts this morning. I’d never put more than 275 on the bar for deadlift.

Hit 275 smooth so I decided to jump up to 315. Hit that smooth with good bar speed so I jumped up to 350. Nailed it again!

New Deadlift PR 350. Think I still got more in the tank. 405 coming soon.

Arms, military press and standing calf raises for a smooth 98k lifted.

I'm out here hitting bodyweight OHP and this dude is putting 98,000 pounds overhead.

I did heavy squat triples up to about tree fiddy today. Finished with some farmers walk and core work.

I don't mean to be rude, but I sort of question your calculator's math. 109,000 adds up to 218 reps with 500 pounds. Doing that sort of volume with that weight is insanity unless you're counting stuff like 1,000 pound leg presses with 4 inch ROM.

If you're squatting or deadlifting, you're a WSM competitor?

My workout tonight was
Leg extensions 3 sets 15 reps 50 lbs
Leg curls 15 reps 50 lbs
Squats 5 sets 10 reps 135 lbs
Dead lifts 5 sets 10 reps 135 lbs
Leg Press 5 sets 15 reps 120 lbs
Calf press on leg press 5 sets 25 reps 120 lbs
Lat pull down 5 sets 12 reps 120 lbs
Hammer grip pull downs 5 sets 12 reps 120 lbs
V-Grip pull downs 5 sets 12 reps 120 lbs
Standing calf raises 5 sets 30 reps 225 lbs
Cable crunches 4 sets 50 reps 60lbs

Shouldn't be anything to be critical about.

Yes, very good results and much less joint pain with high reps with less weight.

I work out 6 days a week. That's my Monday and Thursday workout.

Saturday work out. 62k lbs lifted. Arms, lateral raises, and cable crunches done.

Pretty good Monday.

Bench: 225 x 8 x 3 Shouldn't be a problem hitting 10 reps on Friday.

Dumbbell chest flies, dumbbell shoulder press, lateral cable raises.

Volume bench. 5 reps ascending from 225 to 235 in giant sets with db row and side laterals. 2 more giant sets of weighted, feet elevated pushups, rows and banded, weighted dips.

Then, strongman time. Carried my 300 LB sandbag around for the first time ever for 3 sets. Last one, failed the first clean and was worried I'd have to drag it 20 feet back into to garage, then got it. Finished with bloodflow restriction biceps.
