Dang Kouba, i thought i was the walking definition of murphy’s law. It’s tough to get hurt when everything is goin good.
But stay strong man as i’m sure you will. Here’s a song for ya, not sure how long it’ll be available on youtube as they’re pretty good at taking this one down.
5 minutes on bike
Dynamic stretching
Deadlifts - worked up to 300x3 for a few
Some accessory shit
Rolling and stretching
Deadlifts are good to go. No pain in the foot at all. This makes me very happy. Actually drank some whiskey for the first time in 1 year, 3 months the other night. It was nice to let loose like that. This whole week has been a mental repair mostly. Hit a big wall last week.
Had my buddy do his maxes tonight for squat/deadlift. Very happy with his attempts. He got 385 on deadlift, just missed 400 at the top. Doing box squats for now, and he hit a solid 235. Going to do more high rep stuff with squats, as his ankle is really fucked up since he was born. Not going to put anything really heavy on it until a doctor OK’s it. I see a bright future with the deadlift though.
Greatest thing ever. I fucking love bears.
Nadi - Pup is safe and sound. About time to get him fixed, as he’s starting to make me bleed, alot while playing. With everyone else he’s all happy and licking them.
Heracles - Damn good song. I am a walking injury machine. Have been my whole life. I take it in strides.
5 minutes on bike
Dynamic warm up
Bench - worked up to 165x8 for a couple
Couple other accessories.
Stretching/rolling
Right side IT band was a little tight… The big plus is I was able to really drive hard with my legs with no foot pain. Bring on May 12th and huge fucking PR’s!!! I’m 11 weeks out Monday, and beginning my meet prep. Fucking ecstatic!
Steve maxed out at 235 on bench, and 185 with Military Press. Next week he starts 5/3/1, with modified squat cycle with his ankles.
5 minutes on bike
Dynamic stretching
Squats - worked up to 410x3
Whole bunch more stuff
Abs
45 minutes of rolling and stretching
Fuck yes! Knee wraps are my new favorite thing. Kept my knee joint tight, and I had no issues at all. Sat back really well, and no back issues. Best squatting in over 8 weeks. Fucking awesome first day of meet prep. 11 weeks out!!! Going to make love to my baseball later tonight. Hips are sore as fuck.
Awesome Kouba, it’s about time you started using knee wraps. They definitely help a ton.
Yeah, they are nice. But you can’t use them in the AAPF/APF.

???
What is not allowed about the wraps? Not sure i follow you here.
You can only use a belt with squats in the AAPF/APF. No knee wraps.

I see it now, they have a little snippet of a line stating singlet, belt only.
Fuck that, i guess i’m equipped for life. There ain’t no way in hell i would do a maximal squat without knee wraps.
Anywho sorry for hijacking your log.
lol. All good man. I don’t mind doing singles, just doubles, triples, etc suck. Got to do, what you got to do though.
5 minutes on bike
Dynamic stretching
Rotator cuff warm up
Bench - worked up to 295x3 PAUSED for 1 second on chest
Whole bunch more shit
Abs
45 minutes of rolling and stretching
So, I deleted the vid of 295 at the gym… Just have to trust me when I say, they flew up. I have never felt that strong off my chest. This is good news.
On another note, some fucking jackass newbie started off stealing my bench while I was dry heaving into the garbage. Said a few choice words. After I was done, asked him what he wanted on the bar, he started mumbling, so told him to fuck off and watched away. Then he stole my God damn chalk for a pussy ass 135 on bench. I will just let you use your imagination on how the day went with him. He about got Kirk Karwoski’d… He complained to the management. They told him that I was a couple of months away from a meet, and probably best just to stay away. I laughed.
beautiful squats buddy. nice and deep.
glad to hear things are going well, keep riding the momentum!
Now was that a judgement free thing to do, man? That newbie has a right to half ass everything and get in your way. lol
Lula - Thank you there missy! I tried to envision that my squats are as sexy as yours. Then I remembered my posterior chain isn’t as heart stopping as yours.
Hastalles - I know this makes me look like a dick, but if the guy asked, I would have been more then willing to help him out. Just ask Lula via the internet, or the high schoolers/adults where I am now. Just fucking ask!

But he’s an expert! He doesn’t need to ask a meathead like you. The only reason you’re bigger and stronger than him is obviously because you cheated with steroids and creatine.
By the way, your avatar is amazing. Bears are the best.
5 minutes on bike
Dynamic stretching
Deadlifts - worked up to 425x2 for a whole bunch of sets…
Upper back annihilation
Abs
45 minutes of rolling, stretching, and hot shower.
Dear God. Been a while since I felt like killing myself after lifting… 425 felt really heavy. Two things though. Heaviest thing in my hands in 12 weeks. I was straight legging the fuck out all reps. Will post vid tomorrow. Too tired to edit it, and I have to get to bed for work.
Steve did really well. Worked up to 295x7 on deadlifts. Then BBB with 135. Hamstring curls and abs. I doubt he’ll walk right tomorrow.
Good night my lovers.

If I ever venture using gear one day, I will scare the shit out of myself probably… Creatine is cool. Going to start it up again 8 weeks out. You know what got me strong? Growing up poor. Sounds stupid, but all we could afford was hamburger, roast, and potatoes. Going back to that too. I’ve been eating too much fast food shit lately. Also, wrestling cattle in the spring during branding. That will put some hair on your balls.
Yes, bears are amazing creatures. I’m known as the Kouba Bear species at work (not the butt diddling kind…). My network tech thought I was going to maul him today as he was warming up his buffalo chicken thing. I think he was actually a little frightened. lol

Man, I wish I lived somewhere sensible. Meat is pricey as hell down here.
Growing up, weekends in the spring and most days in the summer my dad had me working digging fucking endless vegetable gardens so I kinda know what you mean lol. Too bad I never had to do anything as badass as wrestling cattle though.
