Training Board Monthly PR post

Last workout before my 13 day layoff
and what do you know a new PR


Jump Hang Snatch - 100lbsx3


2 months ago I dreamt of repping with 100lbs, now I can do it

Ehhh now I can use the same weight as female ice figure skaters in this move...

I'm confident after my layoff, I'll be blowing up the charts!

- Benched 305 a couple weeks ago. I think I posted this before. Oh well.
- Did 2 sets of 8 with 85s on incline db presses this past week

Those are a couple recent ones. I should be able to put up 315 in a few weeks.

455x1 DL this morning. Abs and back felt plenty stronger however I just couldn't get my hips to rotate 475 up off the floor. I have a brand new weak link to work on.

Well here goes a few of mine: (ps..My body weight is 228)

4 Board Press: 285 + 2 Sets Doubled Minis
3 Board Press: 385
2 Board Press: 365
Floor Press: 315 + Doubled Light Band
Reverse Band Floor Press (Green): 455
Reverse Band Press (Blue): 495

Chain Suspended (41")GM's: 485
Chain Suspended (36")GM's: 315 + 2 Sets Minis(not doubled)
Reverse Band Deadlift (Blue): 600

And yes I know that these numbers point out some obvious weakness in my bench, LOL.. I have only done 2 Board once and should be good for another 25 or so.. I barely missed 405 3 board after the 385 and will nail it next rotation..

(hehehehe, little does Hannibal know I have been secretly guaging my progress by comparing my number to his for the past couple months, ..shhhhhhhhhhh....don't want him to catch on..LOL)

Tested all the gym lifts over the last week:

Squat 331
(squat suit and belt: Only got 11 pounds out of the suit, did 320 with just the belt)

Bench 243
(single ply shirt and wrist wraps)

Deadlift 375
(Belt: Missed 397 at the knees)

When I tested my 3 lifts July 6th, they were at 751 total. That's a 198 pound increase in about 9-10 weeks. Alot of that was the addition of the bench shirt and improving my squat stance.

I'm so glad that's working for you. I STILL think it's weird to walk away from bench day with only my left hamstring sore.
