Forgot my pre-workout, and I thought I was cooked. The day turned out OK in spite of it. Got more done than last Saturday...yay me!

Nice jump from last week's deadlift, and a good amount of volume!

Sled pushes - 60kg 4 d&b

So we've switched up our focus (on Austin's advice). As I'm having issues with my strength regressing due to the cancer treatments, we're trying new/novel movements that I can't measure against competition lifts. Mission accomplished as I have no idea how to correlate today's work to a competition Squat.
Anything to keep me out of my head for the next few months.
Additionally, it was fun.

Cycle 3
Spoto Bench - 65kg 5*5
Close Grip Bench - 55kg 10*3
Tempo HBS - 85kg 5*5
Trying to do more on Bench day, as it's not a "stressful" as Squat and Dead days.
Everyone in the gym is either competing this weekend at a local meet, or peaking for The Arnold. I feel "left out" of the fun. Everyone is being really supportive about me not being able to get on the platform. It's like being a racehorse that just been scratched from a race, standing in the stall and hearing the starters bell go off. I'm ready to run, but I can't.
Would have liked to have waited another day before training, but the gym is closed Friday afternoon, and all day Saturday and Sunday for Mustache Mayhem: Weightlifting / Powerlifting / SuperTotal
Gonna watch both days to support teammates and my former training partner who's gone to the dark side (weightlifting).

Cycle 3
HB Paused Squat - 95kg 5*5
Tempo SBS - 75kg 6*4
Goblet Squat - 24kg 15*4
Sledding - 75kg *4 up and backs
Cable Flys - #5 10*4
Not bad for being off for 5 days...didn't think it was that long until I looked at my log book. Mustache Mayhem was a rousing success, even if I couldn't compete.
Fvcking Sled pushes really blow. I'm definitely not in aerobic shape these days.
