I’d planned on doing more but squatting 405x10 then the powertec 45 sec sets made me feel like poop.

1b. 1 arm cable rows 50x10 100x4x5 120x5 140x5 160x6

Quick weeknight workout. I wanted to give my shoulders a break so I pulled out the football bar. Funny how a neutral grip can make the bench press feel so different.

10/12

deadlift 135x3 225x3 315x3 365x3 405x5
sldl snatch grip 315x3x8
timed hold 315

Another quick weeknight workout. I figure a quick workout is better than no workout.

somebody once said who needs assistance work anyway ! football must be in full swing…hope you all are enjoying it…

Paul, I’m using the 80/20 rule with my workouts. Football only has 3 more regular season games left. Going by quickly. Kainen is having fun but can’t wait to get back to powerlifting.

Football bar good.

Well, your son could always open a weight lifting museum one of these days with all your equipment as part of his inheritance.

Minimal, I’m having it all buried with me when I die. Not sharing any of it.

I had to get up early today for this one. Football and hockey games all weekend. My youngest still has a hockey game tonight at 7:20.

1b. 1 arm cable rows 50x10 100x5 120x5x5

I need to drop straight bar bench for a bit. My shoulders were killing me.

Maybe because you did 54 reps before you got to the heavy set?

Just like a pharaoh with his tomb. One day someone will plunder your treasures.

Pharaoh. I like the sound of that.

I think I need to start taking two days off after deadlift and squat days. I was achy and had no desire to be lifting anything.

NH /VT States April 8th… registration is open… in case you and K were interested. Best-P.

I would really like to do it and I think Kainen does too. So I hope to see you there again next year.

Thanks Paul.
