She’s going to UT-Chattanooga; she just felt that she had to get away from Knoxville.
We’ll definitely have to introduce ourselves to each other @ the Worlds.

*My heavy deadlift days are cursed. Last week was the Spaghetti Incident, and this week my dementia kicked in. I was showing off for my wife (she literally gave me the “you’re so big and strong” line) and I forgot to go up from 305; wound up doing two sets and I’m blaming that for only getting one @ 435.

360 x 1
Unracked 380, got it 5 inches off my chest, and it came crashing back down.
On a different tip, got my weightlifting shoes today. They made a big difference on squats and a HUGE difference on leg drive while benching.
Holy $*@&!! Are you posting from intensive care?

Oh no, I’m good; safety stands caught the weight. Thanks for the concern though

Yup, got a GHR from Dynabody in Maryville a while back. Got a used one for $125.
And I am horrible at taking hints, but fortunately she didn’t hold it against me

Observations from this cycle -
Happy with squat and bench, kept finding ways to sabotage deads, and totally left out OH press work. Gonna have to go back to 4 days a week, but I think I’ll keep the squatting every session.
You’ll have to forgive my lack of social skills and having not welcomed you on your arrival. You are putting up some good numbers. I’m right on the Alabama/Tennessee border. Powerliftings not one of my sports but I may yet see you at one of the meets up there.

Thank you for the kind words
Squat deload
135 x 5
160 x 5
205 x 5
245 x 5
BW x 50
Light weights, and yet I feel that I’m going to pay for this later in the day because I was running late and half-assed my already half-assed warm-up. This getting old can be bothersome at times.
Didn’t bother posting the rest of my deload week, and thanks to my offspring, Labor Day weekend was a bust, so I’m just getting back into the swing of things. Today’s session split in two; here’s the first half:
Squat:
135 x 5
165 x 5
205 x 5
245 x 5
Bench:
45 x 10
135 x 5
155 x 5
190 x 5
230 x 5
305 x 3
325 x 3
345 x 3
365 x 1
Ran out of time this morning, so assistance work gets done tonight. It just hit me January is not far off, so if I’m gonna get better, I need to kick it into gear
