Benched 275 3x5 today, had to drop just a bit due to the back but everything is starting to feel good again.

Ken - glad you're back in the gym and feeling (at least a little) better. Hope you stay safe and keep healthy! Nice bench, btw.

Tom - God bless you! Post stuff like that whenever you want! lol

swingerofbirches · 07-31-2015, 10:48 AM

Squats & 4-mutha****in-25 conventional!!!!!

Everyone have a good Friday!!!

icehog3 · 07-31-2015, 11:21 AM

Get it, Charlie!

Adriftpanda · 07-31-2015, 11:39 AM

Nice, Charlie! Good pulling.

I may have to pull 430 today than

swingerofbirches · 07-31-2015, 12:29 PM

Thx Tom & Huy! I think that working on my form has helped a lot ... not that it holds together when I'm going for a PR LOL

Get it Huy!!!!! My hero

Great work Men! Looks like a lot of progress since my last check in.

Had a change in direction myself, cancelled my membership at my gym. Bought a concept2 and 350#'s of plates, a cheapie bar and a bench for my basement. Should make it easier to move some weight with the kids schedules getting crazier and crazier. Still need a squat rack, and probably a new bar as this one kinda sucks.

Last night:
2km rower - 1:50 splits
Deadlifts - 135,225,287,287,225,135,135,135,135x5
OHP - 4x10
Barbell row - 4x10
Barbell curls - 2x15

Without a rack I'm forced to OHP only what I can clean, and ceiling height means nothing over 10# weights. Not a problem for me at the moment but a interesting issue with basement gyms.

swingerofbirches · 08-03-2015, 08:49 PM

Got a front squat PR today of 275 ... I'm pretty sure it was the ugliest front squat of all time LOL

I managed to conventional pull 435 about halfway up but couldn't keep going with it after that. :/

Sancho · 08-03-2015, 09:34 PM

Nice Charlie! Great work!

Adriftpanda · 08-03-2015, 11:33 PM

Good going Charlie! Haven't hit heavy fronts in a while.

Hack squats 5x12-10
Front squats (pause) 5x5
Single leg presses 4x12
Lying leg curls - DB single stiff legs 4x12

DB side delt raises 4x12-20
Klokov presses 5x5
Arnold presses - front DB raise 4x10-12

icehog3 · 08-03-2015, 11:53 PM

Great job, Men.

Went to the gym after work tonight, needed to change something up to remotivate myself and get out of the funk. Heading back there in the A.M.

swingerofbirches · 08-04-2015, 11:41 AM

Good stuff Chris! I hope to pull off a home/basement gym (squat rack & bench) w/ barbell and plates.

Great lift, Huy! I still haven't mustered th courage to try a Klokov press. #stud #ballsy

Good to hear, Tom! The funk can't last forever.

Today was Day85 of SED and I managed to do my new front squat PR for a 3sec pause. I got 275 ytrdy but it was a continuous movement squat. Today I hit the pause and had to fight it hard but got it back up. For some reason a front PR doesn't feel like a PR until I can pause it.

Sumo deads and chest press (machine) today. Followed by 30min of elliptical.

icehog3 · 08-04-2015, 12:06 PM

Funk over.....light chest for high reps, bench press, decline press, incline press....feels good to be back.

swingerofbirches · 08-05-2015, 12:19 PM

Back Squats, standing OHP & seated OHP today.

Might be taking a weekend trip to Chicago with the wife this coming weekend.

icehog3 · 08-05-2015, 03:11 PM

I'd try and meet you out, Charlie, but I have hockey games both nights.

Did back today, still haven't got a lot of muscular endurance. Did T-bar rows, pulldowns, cable rows and one set of pullups.

swingerofbirches · 08-05-2015, 04:18 PM

No worries, Tom. Play well!
