How’s the body holding up?

Other than the shoulders getting cranky from using a straight bar on squats everything is holding up.

Was kinda ill last night… and was not 100% today .

It takes more will power for me to walk on a treadmill than to do a squat session that includes a 20 rep death set.

LOL over did the carbs today felt sluggish and bloated.

Nice work big dog, are you mixing any conditioning into this mix or are you back on the quest for more muscle !?

Oh ive been doing allot of easy condition on the tread mill but really haven’t been posting it.
Ill be honest for the longest time and I do mean the longest time I have been more focus on performance under the bar and any muscle I may gain is just a happy side effect.

Well sorta… decided to follow Wendlers new protocol .

Bench: worked up to 365 x 1 *****
Incline DB press: 3 x 10 @ SW
Tate press: 2 x 20 @ SW
Inverted rows: 50 total reps
Bench sit ups: 5 x 10 @ SW
**** my last set of bench should have been no big deal but it felt heavy coming down because my groove felt off. Right shoulder was feeling a little stiff even after going allot of warm up. Oh well…

You have superior strength and you’re in the best age group for lifting. I just think you’re wandering a bit.
