Squats were fast and easy. Bench went well although strength is still down. Floor press agrivates my repaired shoulder a bit. I'll take a break from this fro a bit. Really enjoy the bandwork.

First time doing Zercher squats, incline bench w/ bands, and lateral raises with bands. Workout partner wasn't feeling the JR presses. The Z-Squats are exhausting.

Started taking Epistrong (2/day) and Tren-TFO (1 day) for 4 weeks then a break and finish off with 4 more weeks of Epistrong and Beastdrol before comp. Felt very motivated and strong.

Low back felt sore and tight when I woke up today...took aspirin all day to reduce swelling. Back feels much better after workout. 365 dead felt really heavy off the floor, but I'm glad I got it. Back felt strong during rows.

Its a bit frustrating not being able to right PR next to everything as I've been here before. All the post-injury milestones have been achieved before. I can't wit till I break through em...

The EPISTRONG and TREN-TFO are giving me good pumps and terrific focus. Good aggression to help move the heavier weights.

Low back, glutes and hams are uncomfortably tight. Still pretty sore from last squat workout. I guess those doubled bands had more tension than I thought.

Fun workout tonight. Felt a little bit weaker as I didn't sleep well last night. Tossed and turned 75% of the night. I've noticed I sleep better on days I workout.

 

[ExtraMile]

did u buy the bands yourself and take them to the gym? or does your gym own the mini bands and monster minis?

 

[artificialaspirations]

bought em myself. Unfortunely I go to a fitness club, not a gym. People stare...
