Pack Mule - Josiah's Log

[Josiah Moye]

Forgot to update this yesterday, did this:

Squats up to 445, which will be my opener Saturday.
Benched 295 with pause. Missed 305. Did 265x2x2
Light curls for elblow

Today I will squat 365, maybe 405, then call it a day.

Edit: Did 365.

Had to post this quote from an article on this site Lift Run Bang that was posted in 70sbig...

"In the meantime, just put your nose to the grindstone and worry about being the very baddest mother fucker you can be. And the rest of the pieces will fall into place."

Hell yes.

Today:

Squat 315x1
Bench 275x1 - opener, no more benching til meet

Thurs+Fri probably go super light for squats. I'm not gonna take a full break from squats because the day after a day off I feel like shit and all weight feels heavy.

Good luck at your meet. You look ready.

Thanks man!

Today was 225x1 on squat. Tomorrow gonna weigh in after work, hopefully I didn't sneak up above 220 cuz I want to pound some carbs for the meet.

RE: Leave Options.

I'm headed down to Florida March 10-17ish. I tried to get a hold of Muse via fb but nothin yet, I really need a new cell provider... So That could be a cool trip. I still don't quite have a solid plan but I have a bunch off fam I could stay with, and trying to link up with Jeffrey.

Good luck at the meet. Three Wolf Moon gonna make an appearance?

[Josiah Moye]

Thanks guys. Ready to do this!

Willie, I actually had to toss the 3-wolf. It was ready for retirement. In many ways. Lol. March would be sweet, hit up the ole beach. Grill it up bash bro style. Haha.

Make us proud!

Well the meet was a huge success! It was a real small, local meet here in San Antonio. Probably 15 total lifters, somethin like that.

I ate a shit ton of carbs last night and this morning. Huge bowl of raisin bran, chocolate milk + creatine, big ole mug of coffee, and a brownie my friend's girlfriend sent him was my breakfast lol. Also they had some bananas there and I ate about 3 of those between lifts.

I weighed in yesterday, on their shitty scale, at 208, which I know can't be right because in the morning I weighed in at 217 on the scale at my gym. So I'll go with that measurement, 217.

Here were my lifts:

Squat: 445, 475, 500 - Smoked it. 15lb PR
Bench: 275, 300, 315 - Not too bad. 15lb PR.
DL: 495, 535, 565 - Hell yeahh! 40 lb PR
Total: 1380

All of these lifts went up much easier than I expected. I definitely left some on the platform, but I'm happy with that for my first meet. Amazing what some adrenaline can do!

Great way to finish this cycle!

Now begins cutting and getting ready for the PRT.
