I had a pretty wicked past couple of days, and had to workout late at night. Surprisingly, it wasn’t that bad, and I had plenty of energy for squats. While I only got one extra rep from last week, it was to just about failure, so I’m happy I pushed it that much. I also started to almost have like continuous reps for the lighter weights, so the tension is always on the legs. Much, much more difficult.
I’m glad I’m not getting the “Ramp Flu”. I do have to eat more though, I’m stuck at 170.

The 60 Second Rest is tough. This was a taxing day, but not too bad because it wasn’t compound heavy. I like how quick the workouts are, but it’s a little ego busting seeing the strength drop so much. I’m still happy with the first sets though. There some improvement there. Just keep plugging away guys
Looks great Bone. Just keep increasing that first set. You’ll make it through this week, try and take the positives out of it. Like you said, I also loved how short the workouts are. Get in, rock shit, get out.
Skulls - Skipped due to tricep health and tightness
Life is slowly getting in the way of this program. I’ve had car trouble, and now I’m leaving early this week for a wedding and small vacation for Labor Day. I’ll only be able to life 2-3 times this week instead of 4, and then have the long weekend off. I know it’s a bit rough to do this right at the end of the ramp, but life happens. If anything, a 4 day layoff should be exactly what I need, and all these extra party calories should help me heal and grow. I’ll be hungry for the gym again when I come back on Tuesday.
