    Trucking along ... and they're going to see a Phoenix-area SSC for some hands-on tomorrow. Woot.

    W4D3: SSC Session

    The coach they saw did some great form-work with them; did not lessen the loads so at least I was loading them appropriately. Hopefully great things are coming!

    Still hovering right around entry weight. Longer term they both want to lose "scale weight" but for now I'm happy to see them gaining strength in an essentially calorie-neutral environment. They, too, are content so far, happy with strength gain.

    Melly insisted on letting go of the barbell every rep ... though the individual reps were lightning-quick.

    Bill:

    SQT did on a Smith machine because his "hip hurt." I told him it didn't count.
    PRS 95x5, 75x5x3
    BNC off
    DLT 205x5

    Melly:

    SQT 130x5x3 (High. 125 was borderline. She has the strength but she's scared. Going to rack her back in weight slightly, have her set the safety arms, and go, with a slight reset)
    PRS off
    BNC 85x3x2; 85x2x2 (Missing reps here now even on triples. Gotta punt a bit and figure out what's up with this.)
    DLT 160x5

    Bill:

    SQT Attempted empty bar; hip pain unbearable. He's seeing someone this week about it.


    Told Bill to reduce weight from 155 to 95, hoping that would help, but even 45lbs was a nogo. So I had him do some leg presses.

    Leg Press: +0x8, 10x8, 20x8, 30x8, 40x8

    Just calibrating here.

    BNC 120x5x3
    DLT 210x5

    Melly:

    SQT 115x5x3
    PRS 67.5x3x4
    DLT: 160x5


    I accidentally Rx'd 160 for deadlifts twice. Dang.
