Worst part was it looked just like a ground up sweet potato in poo form. It was straight orange… still awesome
Been doing some makeshift yoga/stretching on my off days lately. Feels good man.
Warmed up with soft tissue and dynamics
Chinups- BW 3x5 (paused at top)
Incline bench- barx10, 95x8, 135x5, 150x5, 165x5, 180x8, 155x10, 135x6
Inverted rows- (feet 16") BW x10, x10, x7
Ring pushups- (BW+elitefts red) x10, x8, x6, x6, x6, superset with
Chest supported rows- 135 5x10
Band facepull- 4x25 superset with band pushdown 4x25, superset with band curls 2x25
Took 70m. Chins felt decent, pausing them made my back go a little more than normal. Incline felt pretty good, got a tit pump and felt strong on the 180 set. Basically did a drop set with 155 and 135. Back got a little tight from my lackluster arch but it was ight… Inverted rows kinda sucked until the last few reps, needed to focus more to get my back going. Ring pushups were good, got a lot of tricep going and tit stuff going. Chest supported rows were good, got a good squeeze going in my retractor area. Supersetting them was awful, I dropped the whole time. The band stuff got me a pump n stuff. Facepulls I wrapped the band around my hand and felt different and it felt much better in the upper back. Didnt have to hold onto it at all. Good session yo.
Looks like a fun training session. I’ll bet you felt swol with all that pump going.
Pretty much, especially the band stuff. Those tricep extensions with the band got rid of my elbow pain completely also.
Warmed up with soft tissue and dynamics
Deadlift- 135x10, 185x5, 225x5, 245x5, 285x3, 315x5, x5, x5
Paused front squats (1-2s)- 135x3, 155 10x3 on the minute
Front squat iso hold- 315 3x30s
Unilateral farmers- 100 4x30s
Took 55m. Deads felt pretty good. Liking it when I straight my legs before initiating the pull, feels very tight. Liked 3x5 for deadlifts, dont liekthose high rep. Felt like I could focus on form more and got some decent volume in. Paused front squats were good, form felt dead on. Tough but still good, prolly gonna go with a minute rest cuz im a pussy. Front squat isos are tough, started shaking a little bit and they killed my upper back and abs. Paused front squats and iso killed my upper back. Farms carries were good, killed the oblique. Felt like I spent half the workout on my trunk, not close to half but half the exercises. Good ssession. No video cuz my internet is out so I cant post fromt my computer. Ill try with my phone to upload a video possibly.
Current major goals 300 front squat, 450 deadlift, 185 ohp, 225 push press
Warmed up with soft tissue and dynamics.
Chinups- BW x6, x5, x5
Press- barx10, 65x8, 80x5, 95x5, 105x5, 125x5, 137.5x10 PR
Push press- 165x2, 185 4x2
Inverted rows (feet 16")- bwx6, 25x5, 45x5, 60x4 PR, 25x10, BWx10, x8, x7
Ring pushups- BWx5, 30x5, 50x9 PR, 25x9, BWx10, x8, x6
Chest supported rows- 140 4x10
Band pushdown 4x25 superset with band facepull 4x25
Took 80m. Chins are easy right now. Gonna add a rep each time and see how far I can take that. Would be pumped to get 3x10. Press was pretty good, form got sloppy on the last one or two, but its a PR. Push press made my elbow slightly annoyed with a slow eccentric. Inverted rows were really good, rigged a thing to make it so I hit consistantly the same height. So I know if I got high enough if my chest touched it. Its like four inches from my hand, so not too short like just below wrist level. And a PR on them and a good amount of volume. Ring pushups were good, PR but the backoff wasmostly tricep stuff. Felt a lot of tricep but still titties. Cs rows were good, but you cant breath great. Like them tho, mainly cuz I hate unilateral cuz it takes forever and im lazy. Bands for pump, good session. No video cuz laptop was in my car. Heres a bear pooping.
Warmed up with soft tissue and dynamics
Front squat- bar 2x10, 95x5, 135x5, 155x5, 175x5, 195x5, 215x5, x5, x5
RDL- 185 5x10
Sled pulling- like 350 pounds of log in sled, backward 3xlike 50yards, forward 2xlike 50yards
Took 60m. Front squats felt good, form held up fairly well even on the last couple. Last rep of the last set got a little grinder going, not terrible. Ass didnt shoot back too far, but then again its not that heavy. RDL was good, form felt solid. Got a lot of erector pump going, felt it in the hams and ass a little. Mostly lower back, prolly cuz I havent done much lower back intensive stuff lately cuz I am a dumb shit. Sleds give me such a fuckin pump in the legs. Backwards kills the quads, forward kills the hams. Both kill my friggen lungs. Good session. Last set of 5 for the video.
Those backward sled pulls will build an impressive set of quads. Keep up the good work.
I’ve been having elbow pain on assistance exercises such as DB tate presses and any kind of skullcrusher/french press movement. No idea why, never had it in the past. Obviously, it’s rather strange I get elbow pain when I’m putting really heavy shit over my head, but idunno. Kind of mirin the whole band building bloodflow curing ailments. Doesn’t seem to work with me, although perhaps I’m missing certain parameters of it?
What exactly does “Motherfucking” Ass “Prince Kingshit Pussywrecker” Banana “The Toughmotherfucker” do for elbow health?
Nice pressing dude!

I need to change my name asap lol. Most the time my elbow pain was cured by the band pushdowns. I also like doing reverse wrist roller stuff, basically I force a butt-ton of blood into areas above and below. We get enough work on the wrist flexors from holding onto stuff, so hitting high rep elbow stuff and wrist extensions. General icing after might help with sleeves worn during boss ass overhead stuff.

Thanks! They kill them, sled stuff just kicks my ass overall.
Warmed up with a bunch of dynamic stuff and the fact that I was in a sweatshirt and long pants.

Front squat- barx10, 95x3, 135x3, 165x3, 185x3, 205x3, 225x3

One arm farmers- 90 4x50yards each
Band facepull- elitefts red x100 in like 3ish sets
Took about 80m. Looks like I did a bunch, but like half of it took like 15 minutes total. Leg curls, chinups, farms, and facepulls took prolly 15m overall. Anyways, front squats felt pretty damn good, got the elbows waaay high and felt very stable. Paused front squats are a still a butt, they kill me especially the 3s pause. These make the bottom of my squat feel perfect. Chins felt decent, gonna keep it at 665 cuz the last 5 way slightly difficult. Incline was good, form felt real solid. Didnt flare much at all either. Deadlifts felt heavy as shit at like 275-315, then 335 felt great. Liking the way I straighten my legs, feels solid. Inverted rows felt good, I like having a depth marker. Got a nice mid back squeeze. Farmers felt good, lots of trunk stuff. Facepulls got a hyuuge pump in the upper back. Good session. Ill post a bunch of videos for funsies. 225x3 video
Incline 185x5
Deadlift 335x3
Great session

Band Pushdowns and Axle Reverse Curls got rid of my elbow woes. I guess that’s basically the same concept as what you did.
