Saturday evening update.
1+ mile run/walk doing bicycle training with the kids.
10 laps swimming.
Blisters on my hands from all the rows and PCs.
Wife is enamored with how I look now. Its been a good 2021. I’m so glad I can do this - tendonitis was preventing this kind of thing just a few months ago. And I’m super happy to be in a period where i have to eat to keep up with training. I straight up drank 8oz of heavy whipping cream today.
Awesome to read dude!!
6/13 Sunday early morning: 200 pushups in 11:54, a PR I believe. @ChongLordUno it’s in your spirit, though not up to your volume level by any stretch.
Great time my man
Can’t beat a bit of push up power
Wife complimented my body yesterday and it felt good. I’m really happy with my progress. She took these:
Looking good - clearly you are killing it these days 
6/13 Afternoon:
5 rounds, every 2:30 on the 2:30:
-5 Press 95lb
-20 BPA
Then pressed 1 single at 115, no problem, attempted 135, just barely FAILED. Would have had it if I’d rested another minute or two, and not been in a rush… I think!
“sally” air squats with daughter
@dagill2 knocking out tomorrow’s press early, and hopefully I can keep the rest really short on the 10 sets of squats tomorrow, so I can get it all crushed in one trip still get to work early.
Kept press the same weight this week, this is the real week 2 SSL weight, I was over-achieving last week because 95# is a convenient number. Made sure the rest stayed short this time too.
Oh fuck, it’s 10 sets tomorrow isn’t it? I forgot about that.
Looking thick and juicy my man. Hard work paying off.
Keep it strong and keep it conditioned my man
Looking good man. Quads getting monster
Holy crap that’s a radical transformation you’ve undergone dude. You’re crushing it!
Mate the hard work is deff paying dividends. Quality
We all have a collective boner, is what we’re trying to say.
6/14 Monday
Squat 10x5 175lbs. 60-70 sec rest between sets, crept up toward 90 sec at the end.
Leg press 4 sets of 25: 225, 225, 225, 205.
This was probably heavier than the intent of the program, a lot of breathing pauses were required. Was absolutely brutal. Would have been equally brutal with less weight and faster pace though.
Staggering after this.
Leg extensions 3x30 50,50,60 pin-select. Last few reps were an incredible painful BURN as Kroc intended.
Staggering even worse
Lying Leg curls 3x15 110 on the pin-select.
DB Sldl 3x15 with 55s, 60s, 60s. Straps on the last two sets, which was a good idea.
@dagill2 this session, dude, was absolutely brutal. Glad I knocked out pressing yesterday. I’m gonna feel this one.
Thanks for the kind words, everyone!
Putting me to shame here my dude. I think I’ll have to work up to this weight later in the program.
And yeah, this session is a killer. Awesome work there dude.
6/15: 60 swings early just to get moving and that’s it. Work and family took priority over any feeder workout plans.
6/16 Wednesday
PRESS
10 singles at TM 120lbs, one every 50 seconds on the second.
BENCH PRESS
145x3
165x3
185x10! Last rep was a struggle and me, a year ago, wouldn’t have attempted that level of exertion, no safety or spotter.
I figured worst case I could dump it to the side, which would wake the family but I wouldn’t die.
BBB sets have to wait because I must go to work.
Bad because I lose the training effect of being fatigued post-amrap, but it is what it is.
Planning to try with 70%tm today. @dagill2 is that considered appropriate for BBB or over-reaching? Either way I’ll try, and back off if I need to to hit the reps.
I’m using FSL, which this week would be 70% Not going to lie, ots hard going for me. My Bench has taken a massive hit this last year. You’re putting me to shame with that topset.
I am guessing this is because you didn’t make it a priority in your training?
6/16 afternoon:
Bench press BBB work:
145lb 16,14,13,12. 55 total reps in 4 sets, I’m super happy about that and my chest is PUMPED.
