Bingley's Bumbling Along

[Adam Skillin]

special shout out of thanks to Adam Skillin is due for giving me this patience schedule that I'm on.

Congrats on the PR's! Glad my advice is serving you well. Keep on keepin' on, my man.

I like to remind myself that after easy comes hard, and after hard inevitably comes failure. Helps me enjoy the easy and be more patient.

[Mr. Bingley]

hi poco, yep the patience is key.

[Mr. Bingley]

Tues 3/17/15 light day
SQ 175 3x5
OHP 95 1x4, 85 2x5
Pends 95 3x5

this cold and lack of mental motivation made the OHP a chore and I just couldn't even be bothered to try any chin ups. SQ felt fine, Pends were fine.

It's light day! It's about rest, right? Just have an extra adult beverage and enjoy it - there's more work ahead! Good work on the press BTW!

[Mr. Bingley]

I like the cut of your jib!

Thurs 3/19/15 med day
SQ 195 3x5
DBP 90 2x10, 1x7
Pend Rows 95 2x5

squats felt ok, little twingyness in the left knee during set and also when i got out of bed this am, hmmm. DBP still have the wet noodle strength arms but getting a little better, Pends felt ok but didn't feel like pushing it.

Sun 3/22/15 hvy day
SQ 215 x1
BP 115 1x5

woke up with a little twinge in the lower back, during the SQ warmup ups at 135 and 185 felt it little bit and really felt it coming out of the hole on the first rep at 215 so I just stopped then and there. BP was a little noodly but ground out one set then just called it a day, a very frustrating day. will take it very easy the next week or so and hopefully it will right itself.

Tues 3/24/15 light day
SQ 185 3x5
OHP 85 1x5

got my BestBelt last night so I was excited to give it a try, especially after the mess that was Sunday. 185 felt fine, no twinge in the back under weight but kept the workout relatively short because I'm still a-scared of the back. But very very pleased with how the belt felt and the support.

Thurs 3/26/15 med day...in theory
oh well, the perils of a public gym. Squat racks were occupied the entire time I was able to be at gym, was able to get in a set of 90 3x10 DBP and 75 3x5 Pend rows but not much else really, which is probably for the best as the back is still a touch touchy and I really hope to be able to go heavy again on Sunday.
