Henry V

Inspirational much?

HOD

Hair of the Dog, cabron.

Metal?

To paraphrase Jim Wendler, This song would be amazing if it was tuned a little lower and the lyrics were more on the screaming side.

Do you remember?

I should really wait until September to post this.

Umm, sorry sir. I must have tapped over it.

Pulling the tire is hard. I have it loaded with about 100 pounds. I would have done more shrugs but I didn't feel like chalking up and my grip just couldn't deal with any heavier weights.

Rhodes and Vincent derided me last night when we went to the dinner with BFJ after benching. I'm going to be doing 5 sets of 3 to 5 reps for my main lift on what are now my squat and dead lift days then 5 sets of 10 for two assistance lifts and one ab exercise. I got a tire today too and I'm making it into a sled per the strong people's advice. I'm probably going to try to pull it everyday, just a little to warm up before lifting and a lot for some extra workouts. Wallingford is now the plan.

I went straight to my chest benching. 315 was all mental but it was a fucking terrible idea to try and take it. Stapled. It'll fall the week after worlds.

Deeds

I got behind in my posting, I don't remember a bunch of sessions. It doesn't matter anyway because I'm starting on some new shit. All that needs to be said is that I it a 405 squat finally and a 441 pull in Mass. Time for deeds.

455x0

I used up too much energy warming up my squats. 395 was difficult enough that I decided to leave with a 10 pound PR instead of possibly dumping 405. The 455 pull was gross as I was stuck about 6-12 inches off the floor for what seemed like a long time. It was too big a jump.

I think that was it and those numbers are right. All I am sure of is that I PRed with a 275 bench and the bands were set up with less tension than normal. It was a while ago.
