Manta Ray Oly Shoe Narrow Stance Squat
255x10
275x7
295x5

Box Squat to my Bench
255x8x3

“Round” Back GM
135x3x10

Sissy Leg Ext Light Band
3x15
Gliding Leg Curl
2x15
1x12

Plyo Push Ups
3x5
I need to do these w/ my hands on the bench, they weren’t all true plyometric reps
Band Face Pulls
3x15

Medium to Wide NG Mega Push Up
10lbx10
12.5x8
15x6

3x8

Landmine Presses

Landmine Row
3x14

95x3x10
I wanna own the top portion more so I’ll stick w/ this weight for now

2 DB OH Carry
20/hand for 2 short back and forth carries

Snatch
145x5x2
These were ugly. I was pulling them high enough, but I was having trouble pulling them into perfect position and shoulder stability with the catch… I think I just need more practice at this weight.

SGHP
205x5x5
Height wasn’t a problem but I’m not at the point where I can do them all in a smooth cadence. I had to reset between some reps so I’ll keep this weight for next time.

BGSS
115x2x8
115x8
Gliding Unilateral Hip Ext.
2x15
1x12
Jesus this pairing was hard

Calves

Standing Strict Press
105x10 RPE 8
115x8 RPE 8.5
125x6 RPE 9

Narrow NG Legs Straddled Pike Push Up
3x8 RPE RPE 8.5, 9, 10
I tried straddling my legs to get more of a vertical press as opposed to a high incline angle. This definitely placed more stress on the lateral delts despite the narrow neutral grip, made it harder while still being slightly tri dominant. It’s not so much better as just another variation in the tool box.
Chin Up
12, 10, 8 RPE 8.5-9, 10, 10

255x2x5 RPE 7
275x5 RPE 8

NG OH DB Carry
5lb per hand for some distance

Power Snatch
135x8x2
Bar path was much improved. Just need to work on getting that final external rotation and keeping the upper back and shoulders tight for the final catch. Keep at this weight and rep scheme and improve speed and form. Last two sets were really hard b/c I was having trouble with the external rotation.

SGHP
205x5x5
I want more control at the top before moving up. Also, the reps went smoothly from one to the next however I want a snappier reversal.

Skater Squat
3x12
1L Supine Straight Leg Hip Ext.
3x15
I liked the skater squats, I can see them helping me control my knees and hips in the bottom of a squat.
I’m gonna try lifting my leg up more with the arm or back of a patio chair instead of the bench.

Stair Calves
I made it all way up the two flights of stairs this time. I was not able to repeat that for the next two sets.

Landmine Tosses (only the top half range)
3x10/side

Standing Press
105x5 RPE 7
110x5 RPE 7
115x5 RPE 8
125x5 RPE 8
135x5 RPE 9
I got a little scared and an adrenaline spike while doing the final set of standing presses. This was a volume PR and an RPE PR w/ 135

Pike Push Up 45 degree angle grip (didn’t rise up on my toes as I lifted myself up)
8 RPE 8
8 RPE 8.5
8 RPE 9
Chin Ups
11 RPE 9
10 RPE 9
8.5 RPE 10
I didn’t raise my toes on the pikes because that ROM was already so torched by the standing press. I was happy with the chins

15 RPE 9
12 RPE 9
12 RPE 10
1Arm Bench Against Knees Pull Elbows to the side Rows
20x3x15

Band Low and Behind Me Curls
10x3x12

A Couple of OH Snatch Grip Carries
2 rounds

Hip Snatch
120x7x2
didn’t take much rest between sets, very clean and snappy reps and I pulled them exactly where I wanted almost every time, 125 next time.

Very Deep Front Squats
205x3x5
I’m surprised at how deep I could go while keeping my back straight and keeping most of the tension on the quads. I felt it mostly in the ‘teardrop’.

Bench Squats w/ 50lb Chains
225x9x3
these felt super explosive and rest times ranged from 40-75s. One more set next time and then start reducing rest after that maybe.

“Push Away” SLDL
135x3x10
Just lit everything from my hams to mid back up, I’m technically a lot better at these than the last time I tried them. I’ll stick with’em for a while.

Sissy Leg Ext w/ Light Band
3x15
Gliding Leg Curl
3x15
-crazy quad pump for the leg ext, I’ll try pushing reps to 20 each set before adding a mini
-I didn’t like the last 2-3 reps of that last set, I was compensating too much w/ my lower back, tense those abs and glutes harder next time.

Hands on Bench True Plyo Pushups

Close PG Mega Pushups
-worked up to 17.5lb, try for a hepburn 5x5 progression model next time

Calves

Pike Push Ups Narrow PG
3x8
I think I can push that harder next time, add a couple reps to the last set
Chins
-I’m not recording these b/c my form needs a total overhaul and I need to re-evaluate what I’m actually capable of w/ good form. See the thread you made.

Narrow Feet Bench Elevated PG Full ROM Push Ups (chest actually touching ground b/c I use a hole in the ground, way harder)
3x10
Rear Delt Rows
25x3x15

carried and slung around a dead punching bag for a while

Long Head Curls
-I’m just gonna do drag curls, they feel better than what I’ve been trying to do

Hips Snatches
6x3
Super explosive but technique wasn’t super consistent

Front Squat
205x3x5
205x2x4
I can probably add 3 reps to the whole thing next time, this coulda been pushed harder

CAT Box Squat w/ 50lb Chains
225x5x5
Really improved form rapidly with these. Just need to sit back more and really pull my knees back so they don’t drift forward. It made it almost feel like a weighted dead broad jump almost.

Snatch
115x4x2 Not incredibly snappy but very clean crisp form, weight felt secure in the catch. Need just a touch more work not spider legging.
135x2 I had no business w/ this weight, it was ugly, but hey I got it. In a few to several weeks I’ll train w/ it.

Front Squat
