    Squat 315x5x3
    Sleeves 345x3x2
    High bar 265x6x2
    Ab wheel BWx10x3

    Light day. This workout was so boring I pretty much put it off all week. I think my lever belt is too tight. Might switch to my buckle.

    200331 Tue
    Bench
    225x5x2 wide
    225x5 CG
    Shirt 275x3, 315x3x2 all CG
    DB bench 45x10/12/10 (oops accidentally did 12)
    Rolling DB 45x10x3
    Read db flyes 25x10x3

    Trying to find a bench variety that doesn’t wreck my pec. Trying close grip everything even in the bench shirt which is pretty much sacrilege. Used a pretty loose shirt. Eh, could still feel my pec. Wanted to get some sports massages done on it but the lockdown now makes that impossible.

    Yeah I’m too lazy to change weight for DB stuff. 45 for rolling was way too heavy for a deload week but meh

    200401 Wed
    Deadlift
    315x5 (no belt, sleeves, DOH)
    315x5x2 (added all of the above)
    Deadlift 340x3x2
    RDL 225x6x2
    Shrugs 135x12x2
    Chins BWx5x2

    Trying to stay over the bar a little more in DL. Thinking maybe it’ll help some with weird knee stuff and overall positioning.

    Deload week but everything felt good. I know I’ve been sandbagging my DLs recently but it’s good to know there’s way more to go before progression stalls.

    This is the end of the deload week. Thinking I’ll do 1-2 more training blocks of similar things then switch it up to something more long-term sustainable. Plus I need to get some gear back on before my hip gets too beat up.

    200405 Sun
    Squat 375x5x5
    Wraps 405x3x2
    Raw 405x3
    High bar 285x6x3
    Ab wheel BWx10x5

    Really need to break this habit of pushing the bar forward on the way up. It doesn’t really cause a problem on this raw stuff but when I get into real weight with equipped it’ll bite me pretty fast.

    200407 Tue
    Bench
    235x5 wide
    235x5x4 CG
    Shirt 275x3, 315x3, 325x3, 330x1 (hit the rack pretty bad and had to rack it. Was pressing directly into the bottom of the pin)
    JM press 85x10x5
    Hammer curls 25x10x5

    Pretty hard to self hand off these equipped benches. Have to set up really far back and then be at risk of hitting the rack. Oh well, it’s just bench.

    200410 Fri
    Deadlift 355x5x5
    Rev band 405x3x3
    RDL 275x6x3
    Chins BWx6x3

    Used light bands (purple) for rev band. No idea how much they take off at the bottom. Probably ~100-115.

    I hate deadlifts.

    200414 Tue

    Squat 385x5x5
    Wraps 415x3x2
    Raw 415x3
    High bar 290x6x3
    Ab wheel BWx10x5

    Squat stretching started 1026. First work set finished 1100. Finished all 1125. Depth on wrapped sets not great but it never is, don’t really care.

    200418 Sat

    Deadlift 365x5x5
    Rev purp band 415x3x3
    RDL 285x6x3
    Shrugs 135x12x3
    Chins BWx7x3

    Buckle belt 3rd from end seems potentially better than lever. Tried to measure band tension. Was completely on the floor with 95 and just barely hovering with 65. I’d estimate the bands take off ~55-60lbs at the bottom. Almost completely slack at lockout, so probably 5-10bs there.

    Bench 245x5 (comp max grip)
    245x5x4 CG
    Bench daddy CG 295x3, 305x3x2
    Db bench 55x10x5
    Rolling db 35x10x5

    Figured it was time to stop pretending that bench doesn’t exist. Pretty boring though, I actually brought my laptop out to the garage and did some work in between sets lol.
