thanks borham Yeah, i'm hoping to keep pushing everything but bench still, lol.

Bench triples... only done them once so far, so i dunno yet. The second bench day I do 5x8 with even weaker weights than usual man those 8 reppers are exhausting though.

I NEED to bust through the damn 200x4 ...that's what i'm stuck at for a max still (same max that i started with )

Thank you B_Bunny HAGD2

Blah... remember how I was supposed to go to the chiro... what? a week ago? lol

I keep popping my back "in line" as best i can cuz haven't had time to go see him...it's really funked up though... if I can make it over there today and get cracked i'll be a happy camper... i may take an extra day of rest otherwise and not try for PR weights with a crooked, hurting back....

TGIAF ... I need my new bed delivered

Get to work missy... and I expect prompt delivery of the Yoga video to my account asap

P.S. did the bruise pic go through?

Ya the bruise pic. LOL The Bruise is Nothing! lol But the sweep is looking nice

Yoga Vid, hahahaha, I am amazed at my inability to find balance in movements that seem so simple. Working from the inside out is going to work wonders for my core, stability, balance & inner strength... all while remembering to BREATHE. It is really challenging, I dig it.

oh shit... i almost didn't see this post snuck in there, lol.

Thanks man... grrrrr I hate you, lol.... stalled out much higher than I.
Yeah, really... 700lbs on your back you crazy bastard!! You are going to destroy your PR's at the Comp bro!!!

Na, no bands... bare minimum there, yoga mom focused.

Do you think the bands helped or was it more of a strategic deload??

I'm sure we all have points in a lift that are slightly weaker than others...but I need to train the full ROM and get stronger at it...

If I start working out with 225 for 1/4 reps... what would happen when i brought it all the way to my chest?? ... i dunno.

I'm going to give these triples a few weeks and see what happens I guess... bands aren't an option, period...unless I bought them (not happening... OLY shoes first if i'm going to spend any money on gear).
