4/24 Week 98 Day 2 (Week 33 with Karl)
Press 170x4,1 (4 Rep PR....best I've done before is a single). 15lb shy of my all time PR.
Bench 200x5x3
Chins Neutral Grip - 5,4,4
Press
- I felt froggy, so i went for it...bar got too far in front on reps 3& 4 and I couldn't get the 5th one
- Rested for 60 seconds and got the 5th rep
- first 2 reps felt great, 3 & 4 felt very hard...but it was more a form issue than a strength issue
- Let's repeat and get the 170x5 next time. I don't think we need to taper yet.
Bench
- no lift off, not easy, but no problems either
Chins
- Still questionable ROM
- Elbow not too bad, rear deltoids more sore than anything else
- I feel these a lot in my back, which seems to be a good thing
HIIT
- Went to the gym near the hotel with a coworker, didn't want to make him wait another 10 minutes, so will do this tomorrow on the hotel treadmill
Questions
- How do I get my ROM better. is it an anthropometry issue? are neutral grip chins just harder to get over the bar. Or is it that there was no "bar" per se?
