Today
pull ups 9, 7, sets of 5 -8 for a total of 50
Body said let’s get up early! So I did and did my pull ups waiting for the sun to rise so I can safely walk. It’ll be a bit still until I can take Moss with me but were chugging along on our rehab.
So far about a total of 1.5 miles a day divided into 3 or 4 walks for my pooper. He LOVES it. I LOVE IT. :)!!!
I slept in today! Perfect!

Fs 45x8, 135, 195
205x5 x5 sets
215x2 x3 sets
225
Pull ups so far 5 sets of 5 and some wannabee L’s
This is the last time I’ll do these back extensions with heavy wt 90#x10 x 2 sets. I think it angers an old left sided back/upper glute injury. Hense extensions will be bw or up to 45# or so.
The fs were tough. I am so behind but at least they are there!
Today
deadlifts 45x9, 135, 205, 285
310x4, 310x3 x 3 sets, 315x2
pull ups 9, 2 sets of 7, 6
I need to reset my deadlift percentages for my Leg Refill Strunght Tour thing. I’ll drop the wt and redo this weeks assignment next week. I was supposed to do 5x5 but 310 was too heavy for me to do it. SO I’ll fix it.
I went to see Snap and Eric and my DVM buddy at their meet and they were FABULOUS!!! Everyone did so well!! PR’s I got to see and cheer on!
It was most thrilling as well to sit and hear major powerlifting gossip mmmHMMM. :)!!! And I walked out with about 7 free bb cocaine drinks. I mean pre workouts drinks. SCORE!!! I’m really glad I went :D!!!
I hope seeing you was not a once-every-five-year event moving forward.
And I fear I was the cause of the PLing gossip. Just trying to sort out some issues . . . LOL!
:D!!! Karen!! Oh I have no clue who anyone was but its fun just seeing everyones expressions!! Ha ha!!! The judge cracked me up with his stories!!

The last two days were wild early am shifts at my clinic. Weds 2am to noon, and last night I pulled a half overnight shift of 2-7am. I am beginning to like my strange who-knows-if I’ll get called in -and I have no obligation to go in-Thursday’s. I get a bonus to do it each time so it is $$$! Also the gym day afterwards after I get a nap in on these weird shifts I give myself no expectations at all for performance and sometimes it goes well.
Today was one of those party days, I did stuff I never do and it was fu

They moved one of the bb shrug machine into the area I normally am in so I tried those too. 45x8, 90x8 x 2 sets. I’d like nicer traps as well
2 Mossimo rehab walks. We’re at 0.8 miles stretches now and its so luxurious
Walked on my own too on the trail by my house.
More excitement Friday when I get to sit for 6 hours being lectured about dog food by the Royal Canin people. They will feed us twice however and give us each a bag of free dog food! Can’t pass up two free meals and a bag of free really high quality meals for My Beloved.

Wow, 6 hours?? So…what did they feed YOU, exactly?? The post above was a bit unclear:)
Great lifting as always. I did try one of those ‘Speed Shots’, from the meet. Not bad taste. Judging by the pic, Moss seems to be snooting around your Mt.Dew instead.
Quoted, for the public record:)
I WILL be in your hood soon, and I WILL be in touch before then. I’m thinking next Thursday, after some drum time…2-3pm or so.
Details to be determined.
Cool Z!!! Just gimme a text!!! I should be amoung the living daydwellers by then! 
I scored 5 left over egg and cheese Panera sandwhiches - I eat the egg and cheese Moss gets the bread for training treats- that no one wanted, and a plate of One The Border Chicken fajitas. MmmHmmm.
Today
Moss walk – about a mile now, fingers crossed. Week 11 post op is monday. At 12 weeks post op if he is still static with his recovery he is considered healed.

Wanna be L pull ups 4 sets of 3, one was maybe 3 1/2
I forgot to list in yesrerday a tip I found for carries in an article that I implamented yesterday — chop the feet. I want to remember to do that again because it works!! Helpful to chop the feet down to balance and go forward.
You really know how to score the free stuff Brute! Good luck Monday.
Z.
Thanks Z! Unfortunately my free stuff hoarding is a result of once being dirt poor as a fledgling adult !! Scooping pennies from the floor of a car wash vacuum filter I got to keep on a day labor job to save for ramen and 3/$1 cans of veggies…having a day labor job! I think a lot of us have had that phase in life. Now I get legitimate perks of a decent career!
Yesterday I perked out on some free deli subs :)!!! Meat for me, bread for Moss.

Pleased with the 355 ! It’s been a while! I’ll take it belted.
Dare I say, hanging out at our meet last week, was a motivator for this?!? Pulling up some big singles?
Awesome as usual.
Z.
:D!!! Thanks Z! Funny you mention that because I thought while doing them --I wonder what would happen if someone decided to rep out their 3rd attempt? Just flat out do two reps or so. HA! I’d give them 7 white lights.
Today just pull ups- total of 50.
Reminds me of a post I once read: “I do what I want; I lift for me.”
Perhaps, said aloud, while repping out your 3rd attempt 403lbs. PR pull…Even if it’s only in the gym:)
I’ll try it tomorrow!
355!! Nice work Brute.
Z! Always a party for deadlifts no matter what! Some times the deadzo party sucks and I leave early but its always an oppurtunity for a great feat!!!
Thanks Dbashler!!! I really appreciate it!
I forgot to log yestersays stuff. I was lured into the sumpuous thrill of a rainy lazy day early on… I got some in but nothing spectacular.
