It sucks when the back doesn’t cooperated for squats. Getting back to heavier weight and working the kinks out is a load of fun.

3 x 8 x 290
Incline: 150 x 5
190 x 4
220 x 3
255 x 2

I SWEAR I wasnt drunk when I typed this… just lazy. But drinking would be a better excuse for not proof reading…
This is how it should have been…

Looks like things are still moving forward. And you little one isn’t little anymore. I can’t believe how much bigger he looks than the last time I was here!
Never hurts to take the wife’s advice. It is usually the safest route…on many fronts.
impressive work all around.
what are your kids eating ?
there is one guy at my gym who uses straps - when he squats
puts them of the bar- and holds on to them
I imaging the buffalo bar helps with shoulder mobility and stability the same way

Well… Like yourself i sorta hit a road block and back tracked thanks to the damn surgery I had too have.
well before you left again and took my heart with you I think hes put on around 30 lbs to his frame dont quote me on that.
Well like they say theres a reason they call them women… it actually means WHOOOOO MAN!!!

Honestly neither one of my boys are eating as much as I like… especially the oldest at this point.
Does the guy at your gym have a death wish?? Are you saying hes strapping himself to the bar when he squats?
Well actually with the Buffalo Bar it takes mobility out of it since it allows one to grip the bar wider do too it length. Not to mention lower hand position due to it curvature.
EHHH…sorta another punch the clock.
Pendlay rows: 3 x 5 x 225… went light on these probably should have upped the reps to 10 on my working sets.
Pulldowns: 3 x 8 x SW
Chest supported DB rows: 5 x 10 x SW
^^ FYI this isnt me
Karwoski shrugs: 3 x 20 x 135… didnt feel like shrugging with heavy weight.
Arm Curls… Dusted off the axel Bar ( which is 7.5 inches around for the record) worked up to 100 x 6
Got some work in… main goal was to work the upper back but not fatigue my lower back.
Looking thick in the pic two posts up.
And oh could I have used your t-shirt today, from your first post in this log.

Well I decided to do some standing OHP’s for two reasons one to give my shoulders a break from BTNP and second to honor the return of Little Strict back into the fold.It was a mixed bag…
Just went ahead and used the plan numbers for BTNP
Standing OHP: a few warm up sets
115 x 5
140 x 4
165 x 3
190 x 2
215 x 1
190 x 10… whoops. Had to shut it down
190 x 5
Push downs: 3 x 10 x SW
Ok I hate when I am wright … i figured since I have been doing seated BTNP with my back being supported that it would have a impact on doing standing OHP. I had more then enough pressing power shoulder wise in me to put up more reps with 190 but I was starting to lean back and was loosing stability. Go figure
Brother, I appreciate the honorary MP workout. And I promise you, those numbers will put mine to shame. It’s a long road home!
190x10 is awesome, especially with more in the tank.
And I hate doing seated OH presses. I can definitely see it on the BTNP, but it just feels wrong.
On a side note…given the size of “Pup’s” neck, I would say he is in rut!

Nice bench work for a crappy dat and those explosive pause squats should pay of nicely.

Just wish I knew what the issue for the soreness was from
