    Bar-10
    155-5
    255-5,5,5,5,5, - was going to rep the last set to failure but 5 seemed to be enough

    DB OHP - super setted with curls below

    Nice quick workout in less than an hour!

    Had some severe motivational issues today. Took the week off to work on the farm, spent all day today outside weed wacking, brushing etc. Back was sore, did not feel like working out and almost pushed off my workout.

    Squat
    Bar-10
    155-5
    265-5
    340-1
    409-5,5,5, Compared to last week these were much harder despite being only a few pounds heavier. Still had a couple reps to spare on the first couple sets, last set maybe 1 rep. Vid of 1st set - had to motivate myself with a couple grunts!


    Calf raise - 200-12 - only do these for foot health. keeps the plantar fasciitis and other issues away for me.

    Comp bench
    Bar-15
    155-5
    265-2
    341-2,2,1 - Vid of 1st set. Last set just did 1 as I hit a wall and didn't want to grind out a second. Didn't bother with sling shot as I was wiped out.



    Tricep push downs - did a couple easy sets to finish

    Another weak day, at least as far as my deadlift is concerned- Spent too much energy working outside again. I'll get back on track when I get back to my desk job next week.

    Deadlift
    Bar-10
    155-5
    265-3
    375-3
    475-1 - Supposed to be five but didn't have it in me today
    375-5 - Salvaged some of my workout by dropping 100 lbs - Not a total loss. If I was smart I would take a deload this week, but I don't have that going for me

    DB Incline bench
    65-7
    120-7,7,7, - At least these went not too bad. +1 rep each set from last week.

    OH chins
    BW-6,6,6, Pulled my fat ass up 6 times. Did less than last week.

    1 arm Kettle bell row
    123-6,6, each arm

    DB curls - did standing, sitting, and preacher - Got a gunz pump for the win.

    I can relate to all of the above and it does not get any easier every year. You are still strong and an inspiration for many. I think you are doing great things as a master lifter. Keep it up.
