Low volume week. Squats felt awesome. 375 was super smooth.

As ridiculous as it sounds, I used wrist wraps some on my bench press tonight just to try it out. Embarrassing to use wraps on a 225 bench, but I’ve had a bunch of surgeries on my left arm/elbow/wrist. It at least helped with the lift-off, which puts the most pressure on my forearm. If I had a spotter to give me a lift-off I’d probably be ok?

Oh yeah…I forgot those existed. Maybe I’ll check into it. Thanks for the suggestion!

Just massage therapy tonight. My right hip has been bothering me for a long time, and now my right hamstring is getting pretty painful. My therapist said she can tell I’m way more beat up and sore than usual. Hopefully this helps.

Deadlifts felt really good. I’m trying to start this next block off conservatively. Only eight weeks out from the meet, now. I like the landmine hack squats, but found they get pretty cumbersome to get onto my shoulder once the weight gets even a little heavier, so I’ll swap that supplemental spot out with something else.
Good low volume session.

Thank you, sir. All my lifts are feeling good right now, but especially my squat. Meet prep is cruising at the moment, even while losing some weight.

I’ll post this up here just because I was talking about the meat and eggs thing with @TrainForPain and @T3hPwnisher recently. This is about what a typical dinner looks like for me right now:

Easy benching tonight. I changed my setup a little bit and it’s keeping me much more solid and tight throughout the lift.
