Squats: shit ton of just the bar to warm up.
2nd semi working set my piriformis on the right side said " Hi fucker remember me"
Spent the remainder of the session stretching it out between sets.
Last pre planned"Heavy" set ( Heavy= light as hell) was a AMRAP set . Shut it down at only 12 because I started favoring the left side due too the stiffness in my right hip
went down 20% and finished with 5 x 5
Good mornings: 5 x 10 light
Standing Band crunches 5 x 10
looks like Ill need to get out a lacrosse ball and do some mobility stuff

What program do you plan to get back into?
At this point some powerbuilding routine or what ever i pull out my ass. I would say its going to take awhile getting things humming again.

Bench: pretty much same rep and set scheme as squats. I estimate its down 90lbs at the moment from not training and not eating. All thanks to my covid mental collapse.
One arm DB rows: 5 x 10 & SW
Push downs: 3 x 12 @ SW
Band pull aparts: 3 x 20
Pretty much took it easy…
Probably throw in a upper back day

In my experiene, he’s a super nice guy and very friendly. I made a comment about how he trains once on GoHeavy waaaaay back in the day, and he immediately hit me with a email inviting me to ask him whatever I wanted to know about his training. Later on I ran into him at a contest in West Virginia. I was doing Strongman and he was there to win the Powerlifting. We talked in the competitors area for a while. I have nothing but good things to say about him, and I stole from his training rather openly. I firmly believe in feeling like there’s still one rep in the tank on the work sets and not actually going to failure. And he’s thick as hell too.

Yeah… i could get over his upper back thickness. One question that stuck out was…how the hell does a guy of his height have such big freaking feet!! I tell you what squatting in front of him made my ass pucker.

@hardartery honestly i feel most people over look with Ed is his bench. I believe over 550 or so in comp. Considering he is not built for the bench.
