If’n I just got a 275 squat, I wouldn’t care about failing that bench either. Nice job!
I knew I’d be seeing PR’s in this log but not on the bench! you’re attacking that thing and I’m liking in. Good work Brute.
Yay for yet another PR!
monday
front squats
bar, 135, 155, 165, 175, 185, 190, 195, 200!..and a bazaar 205. I think I’ll claim it anyways 
it turned into a sorta push press atthe end in a way to get it up, but word
then 175x4, 160x6x 3 sets, 160x 5, 175x3
cardio
today

i decided to move my rep squat day to saturdays or so. but i still felt like doing some so i did some one rep stuff
bar, 135, 185, 225, 245, 265, 275, 280 :)!! not very low, but i think it was low enough :)!
i am such a nerd…so i don’t get paid that much as a cvt, but i manage, and i treat myself fine. i usually can tuck a tiny–and i mean tiny-- bit away each month, and i’m still paying off a substantial chunk to student loans.
anyway, i mention this because i was offered a PRN position as a relief tech at another hospital…and although i make a pittance, i really don’t want another job!
i think i’d rather be poor a year or so longer then work 60 hours a week and tuck away some savings…plus when would i train??
WORD! Shows my priority in life-- my nerdo training and stuff instead of shaping my financial future. I’m way cool with it though.
Nothing wrong with knowing what you want. And it sounds like you do.
I love your attitude. Happiness over $$, at least for the time being. Stay with the animals as long as you can!
holly shit, you front squat 205??? That is really, really impressive!
205lbs front squat! - awesomeness wrapped in awesomeness. Keeping focused on what makes you happy is very smart. A lot of people place the green paper in front of all other priorities and then wonder why the feel lonely and unhappy.
hey thehardway! i am very pleased with it:) thanks nlmain!
today i blame my workout on the cantaloupe i got. it was awesome…but not quite enough to pull me through a workout like i’d like it to.
deadlfits
265x8, 275x5, 285x3, 280x4, x3,x3, 290x2, 225x8, 245x6, 265x3, that’s it.
i did one attempt at overhead squats and it was a doozy not balance danger zone. so i called it a day

here is the oddo 205 from monday. and then the slightly better 200
thanks for the advice snapper! i am glad i posted, you can see how it turned into a bit of a mess, but in typical fashion i just get a it excited and throw caution to the wind. --and I don’t have a belt yet 
I am hoping to see a friend of mine who said i could try his if i ever was curious.
I’m concerned you’re going to wrench your back on those front squats, Brute. Looks painful. Where is your damn belt?? Oh, tell the guy in the background of that first vid that he needs to STRETCH between his chins or they don’t count!
The 280-lb. squat isn’t posted. I’ll look for it later.
love your socks Brute! seems the back squat was switched to the front squat…
this link might work.
i just spotted the new road march article here, and i got all excited. I love that kinda stuff! Now i have dreams of training after the july meet…road marches and maybe some strong man stuff.
god damn. Snap - that looks like good depth to me

HAHAHA! I was thinking the same - sucka ain’t even do real chins, dork!
god grief Brute, that is ridiculous weight. Can’t wait to see how you fair with the belt. I think it will definitely help move those big weights.
Yep. Depth looks good. Hey, Brute, I have a belt. It’s a full size one and I only use my tapered one now. Wanna try it? I could bring it down the hill. Lemme know.
Brute, I love watching your videos. Love. Them.
Snap and Maschy, I was thinking the exact same thing about the guy in the background doing half-chinups!
We all love Brute vids because . . . she’s such a Brute. Truly, Brute has INCREDIBLE talent.
