That grip issue was a bummer; almost dropped a couple reps. Lack of/faded strength after meet for sure. Felt it on my 2nd pull on meet day; pulled PR after that and felt fine.
Onward and Upward.
Are you moving to mixed grip now? Either that or start training hook if you want to stay double overhand.
Why are you using a slingshot? You can press that weight raw. Or am I missing something?
Didn’t switch; not much time to work on it yet, and no hook for me. Felt weak/loose on BE; mostly did it for safety while alone.
Going back tonight; get some SQ going.
So you were wearing a slingshot for safety? By yourself? Just be careful because if you get out of the groove you can really damage yourself.
No,no, that’s the point. Kept things right where I wanted them. Like you said, the weight wasn’t to much, just wanted decent reps instead of quitting altogether.
Plus, it’s fun to pop it off your chest like that:)
I can’t imagine ever having a concierge! That’s a whole other type of life, and in Denver of all places too! I still can’t ever think of Denver has some high flying city. Snow, Broncos, but I guess The High Life too?
Just imagine how nice it would, be to have someone like me, helping with your daily activities??
“Help you with those Farmer Carries Miss. Fury?”…“Carry Sir Moss out for a pee Miss Fury?”…stuff like that.
Now THAT’S living:)
Sunday 8/28:
SQ: Not much weight. 3x4@155 /4@ 195,195, 235/ 4x2@ 265.
Safety bar SQ: 5x5@ 135. Another guy was there, asked about the bar, figured I’d try it out finally. Liked it quite a bit; will use again.

Did super-sets with these.
Conditioning: 40yrd sprint to catch the bus.
That’s my kind of conditioning… if you cut the distance in half.
It was only one way…one time:) No more than once a week.

When I read this I detected an English accent. Too funny!
Funny indeed.
I just received a not-so-small loaf of zucchini/ gingerbread, with date, walnuts…whatever?!? No kidding, it weights a couple lbs.
So I’m now on a Bulk; should only take until tomorrow…fairly early 
Edit: An hour or so later; it’s going pretty well so far.
That’s the best kind. Is it your birthday?
Nope, not until Christmas time; just a nice resident of mine. Didn’t last past breakfast the next day.

Sometimes, it’s the little things in life.
Gonna hit it hard Thurs/Fri/Sat, then have 2 days off of lifting. Binge eating, sleeping and working, is about all that is planned.
The “binge” just means volume, not just over-eating crap all day:)
Pizza alert…I just received some. Add it to the ‘to do’ list.
Well so much for not just eating crap all day 
i had pizza too!
