New Year - New Thread

1/1/2010
Sh Rehab, LYT
Bench (TM 190#) Barx10, 95x5, 105x5, 115x3
Working sets: 125x5, 145x5, 165x5
Assistance BBB 115x10 3 sets

Had to talk myself into starting up as promised. Did 3 hours of Kilz sniffing as a pre-workout pick-me-up after a morning of edge painting and ladder climbing.

Felt the time off, as all of the sets felt heavy. But I made the reps (and no more) as planned. Kept the assistance to 3 sets for this start-up week. Shoulders have been a bit wonky from all the overhead painting the last week.

Happy New Year!

We all do, George. We all do. If I had extra back arch to send you, I would. Alas.

17

good work, think hips down and try and squat the weight up as much as you pull it, and you’ll be good conventional

Thanks math, kimba

Pete - thanks and good suggestions

I’m starting back up with Wado class tonight after a 2.5 month layoff due to all the shit happening. Hopefully, since I’m mostly sleeping better these days, I’ll be able to perform and keep going twice a week.

Nice work- the arch will get better, its not bad now.
Love the all black.

Yup, good looking DLs, dog! Keep it up!
