Yeah…definitely going back to neutral grip pullups. Also play around with the volume on them.
Sexy set up mate.
On a sad note, did you hear Eddie Van Halen has passed away? Shocking
What? I didn’t hear…damn it.
Yeah, long battle with throat cancer. One of my fav guitarists. Great shame.
I remember the diagnosis…
Eddie and Van Halen really helped make the 80’s a great time for me.
My God. So sorry. I didn’t realize that that post was from SIX years ago.
Sir, I’m a Christian and I am deeply offended by your assumption that we Christians don’t have a sense of humor.
Seriously dude, that’s a brilliant kind of funny.
No worries.
Bench : 3x5@ 290 … felt easy. Starting to see signs that the volume on the upper back day is paying dividends.
Incline db press. : 3 x 12 @ sw still fairly light but im starting to get into the grove with them. Wasnt as comical as last week
Dips: 3 x10
Some arm stuff…made my feelings clear on those.
Big dog is back in da house!
No where close…
If you say so ![]()
Ssbar dynamic box squats: 10 x 2 @ 60%
Trap bar deads : 3x5 @ 80 %
Rdl: 3 x 10@ sw
Seaded band hamstring curls: 50 reps rest paused
Banded side bends: 2 x 25 per side
Well I decided to experiment. I want to get more squat volume in so I decided on adding in some box squats. Worked as I expected … ended up as a good warm up for the trap bar. Everything was fired up and the 3x5 on the trap bar moved like speed work.
Congrats to the oldest. What’s next?
Hes already at another university as a grad assistant working on a masters degree.
BTNP: 3 X 5 @ 155… easy . Im going to avoid pushing up the weight too fast on these ,slow and steady. Need to take time until the mobility is fully back before I push it.
Seated db presses: 3 x 10@ sw … well shit. Found that on these im better off cleaning them in position over using the db holders.
Close grip bench ( shoulder saver): 2x 10 @ 275 , 225 x 10
Lateral raises: 3 x20 @ sw
Push downs : 3 x 20 @ sw
I wish I could be patient. The best progress I ever made with these was when I didn’t care and had no ego attached tot he weight. Just very gradual proggressive overload.
