    Single leg romanian deadlift - 30lb DB - 10,10, SS'd with
    Back extensions BW-10,10,

    BB deadlift - 407-6, 418-6, seemed a bit light so added more weight for second set. will add 10 pounds each week

    RDL - 308-8,8, will keep adding weight, seemed light

    Single leg good mornings - Bar-10,10, - was trying to balance on one leg like single leg Romanian deadlifts , then my son showed me the right way by putting the non-weight bearing leg behind me. Should have watched the video. Can now add weight without falling over.

    DB lunges - 35's -10,10,10, ss'd with
    Prowler push - 30M x 3 - did this on my gravel driveway in the PNW monsoon rain in the dark. Used a headlamp. Did this empty to start. Will find some weight for it next time.

    Working on the farm today, putting down some footings for a couple containers I'm getting delivered Friday. Came in around 5 to do my workout and my inner left groin starts hurting. WTF - I did nothing to trigger it. Sucks getting old.

    DB Hip thrust - 55-10,10, ss'd with
    DB T's - 15-10,10,

    DB lat raise - 15-12,12,12,

    DB rear delt flies - 20-15,15,15, SS'd with
    DB shrugs - 55- 15,15,15,

    Alternating DB curl - 40-10,10, SS'd with
    Hanging leg raise BW-19,19,

    OH grip BB curl - 58-15,15,15, (these are weird) SS'd with
    Dips - 3/4 BW-15,15,15, - Did some with full body weight and some with my legs taking some of the load.

    Leg extensions - 75-15,15,15,
    Calf raises - 155-20,20,20,

    Incline tread mill - started these and my groin was bothering me so stopped. No sense making things worse

    Whatever was going on with my groin yesterday seems to have cured itself. Only felt it a tiny bit.

    Cable face pulls - 75-10,10, SS'd with
    Cable external rotation - 15-10,10,

    Incline bench - 220-8,8,8,

    OHP - 160-8,8,8,

    Bent row - 227-10,10,10, meant to put 185 on - wondered why it felt so heavy. Was doing these strict before, but today the last few reps were cheated.

    Cable row - 145-10,10,10, - did these strict

    DB Hammer curl - 35-12,12,12,12, SS'd with
    DB tricep extension - 25-12,12,12,12, - left elbow still doesn't like these but the pain isn't getting worse. Hopefully it'll get used to these and not hurt.

    EZ bar curls, strict - 73-12,12,12, SS'd with
    Cable tricep push downs - 60-12,12,12,

    I missed Friday's deadlift focussed work out, and Sunday's body building type workout. Did a day of heavy farm work on Friday and had a sore back at the end of the day. Figured deadlifts should be the last thing I do, and basically felt pretty tired as well so took Sunday's session off to recuperate too.

    I'm now on week five of Hooper's powerbuilding which will be my last week. Week 6 is a deload week and my plan is to start Hooper's 12 week powerlifting peaking program instead, but use lighter weights/less sets to start, basically a delod. The following week will then be offically week 1. At that point I will be 12 weeks out from Nationals.

    I will say I am starting to see more muscle definition from doing this powerbuilding program being only 4 weeks in. After nationals I may try the full 12 week program. The only slightly negative thing is working out 5 days/week is a big commitment, and takes energy from doing other things, especially at my age.

    Today
    Cable face pulls - 85-10,10, SS'd with
    Cable side extensions - 15-10,10,

    Incline bench - 235-8,8,8, Couple reps in the tank

    OHP - 175-8,8,8, - These were hard as the bench took strength and energy away. Basically maxed out to get 8 reps.

    BB Row - 230-10,10,10, - Damn, everything is hard today!

    Seated cable row - 175-10,10,10, - these were easier despite doing them strict, could/should add weight

    DB hammer curls - 35-12,12,12, SS'd with
    Rope tricep press downs 50-12,12,12, - Was supposed to do DB tricep extensions but my left elbow definately did not like these today.

    EZ curl bar curls - 75-12,12,12, did these strict - SS'd with
    Straight bar narrow grip tricep press downs - 55-12,12,12, Couldn't think of any other tricep exercise that wouldn't bother my elbow.
