Great lifting in here man. Double weight bench is awesome, even more so when your over 225.

Congradulations!! You put the time in.

yeah…wasn’t sure about the rules but it was cold as shit in there. it was all i could do to take my sweatshirt off when it was time to bench. plus i reffed and basically jumped out and took a few warmup attempts before going to it. it all worked out though.

Yea! You killed it! Very nice job!

thank you!!!

back to the gym… went in today and hit some front squats and leg press. IT bands are feeling really good and the weight is feeling light. two of my guys have a meet this coming weekend so i worked in with them. they were using the Texas squat bar that is thicker than a normal 45lb bar and makes front squats a bit harder but i managed.

front squats
0x10
145x6
195x4
235x4
285x2
325x1
395x1
415x1-paused…felt very easy. i’ll keep adding weight each week.

circuit- leg press-heels together, no lockout, seated calf raise, and toe presses

some x a bunch x 3

that’s it.

Were you going to be lifting at the RPS meet in Winchester (that started out in Manassas)?

i heard something about it but don’t worry, i won’t be reffing that one:)

bench’n- started a new cycle for bench press today. we will be doing foam presses as our main variation. i really didn’t know how high i would go. i looked back in my log and i’ve hit 545 touch and go in the past so i had some idea. i was amazed that when i worked up to 545 even with a long pause it felt pretty light.

foam press- long pause
0x10
135x10
225x6
315x4
365x1
405x1
455x1
495x1
520x1

545x1

maddog close grip bench

405x10x2

shut it down after this…was feeling run down all day.

520 looked real easy-doesn’t look like the bench meet took anything out of you.
