A Dog's 531 Journey

Just caught wind of your log, great job at the meet.

Where in town do you lift at?

Chair dances at work? Now I’m really envious!

Great job George. Seems I’m late to the game with everybody here. WOW you made the meet look easy

Thanks!

I work in town but I lift at home. Way up high on top of Conifer Mountain west of Denver.

How 'bout you?

She sets up in an empty office every other week. Hopefully she starts getting enough business to keep coming back.

I live just the opposite way southeast and work all the way up on the northwest end of town.

That drive you’ve got sucks ass, I have an uncle that lives up past Conifer (Pine Junction I think).

Looking at starting a new cycle of 531, so I’m resetting my training maxes according to the 1RM testing I did in November.
Lift Last New
MilP 125 125
Dead 350 335
Bench 205 190
Squat 305 265

funny that the Military Press didn’t get set back at all. I probably will start up on Saturday or Sunday.

Congratz, again, soldog. Looking forward to seeing you back at it.

SD- Looking forward to following along and seeing how the reset goes! I am sure it will be bigger and badder and better!!

Go get’em SD.

George, how you feeling? I’m still feeling a little beat up.

That about says it all - the meet followed by a busy and stressful week is still taking its toll on me. I’m feeling it more in my shoulders because of this computer work. Haven’t tried to do any leg or back check out to see how they are doing.

Thnaks for the pm heads up, those videos were cool. You really looked like you’ve put on some size compared to the other vids you’ve posted. Maybe it’s just the suit, or the angle? I could really see it during your deads I thought. Anyway, nice job, enjoy the snow!

Did the first real physical labor since the meet today: Scraped the packed snow off the driveway for an hour. Lags and back can really feel it right now.

Still thinking I’ll start up again tomorrow.

Well this was a busted weekend. Yesterday we had to take the dogs up to live with the ex and pick up my daughter from college. Said daughter had managed to break her phone so there was another 2 hours to go to the repair store and get it fixed. Then dinner out with friends.

Today we had to take a 16’ truckload of stuff up to the ex’s place and that turned into an all day fiasco. I’m fried.

Tomorrow’s out too, so maybe Tuesday…

The time is evidently not right to startup again. I have no motivation and am using every excuse to puss out. I’m not gonna sweat it and just go with the lazy flow for a few more days.
