Hadn’t finished logging for the day.
After I had posted that I went back and entered my planned eating for the rest of the day.

After today session… I will lock a few things down. Beginning on the next wave I plan on doing 3 more wave blocks . Which at the end of which i plan on testing my true 1 RM or 5RM. With the goal of getting a more accurate TM established to work from.
TRAP bar: 75% x 5
85%x 3
95% x 3…. Slight twinge ended the set.
Wagon wheels: 3x5 & 85%
Pendlay rows: 20/3. TR 23
Leg curls on reverse hyper : 5 x 10
Skipped core work… will get it in tomorrow with the ab wheels.
Finding i have accumulated some lingering lower back fatigue. Probably from running up on the joker sets on squats 6 days ago. OR going for broke on trap bar for a set of 15 at 90% at the beginning of this wave … or both.Might be a sign that a deload might be in order. Since i dont recall the last time i took one.
A Little melo today

Came across a video on You Tube of a guy who is documenting his journey to reach a 315lbs bench at 56.
All the credit to him this is no slight on him. I will never honestly shit on someone doing this stuff if they are putting in the effort.
Watching a few of his videos it shocked me in how old he looked overall in the face and body. He’s only 2 years older than myself. This isnt a flex on my part when I say that we are almost two different species.
Want i am taking away from it is I have no room to bitch or moan to myself or feel down that im old ( older) and should put things into perspective.

You are a different species than that other guy. Enjoy it.
All jokes aside … the only reason there’s a difference is ive stayed physical active IMO. From the what im picking up the gentleman in question is just starting out .

Valkyrie and I are constantly commenting on how aged some of our peers look compared to us. It’s amazing the downstream impact of the decisions we make in our 20s and 30s.

Wait until you hit your sixties - you won’t have a lot of peers left to compare.

Yeah i was noticing a difference between myself and my formal classmates at our reunion in November.
That might be interesting
Ok. I wasn’t gonna ask, but you keep posting the pictures. Is that an AI version of you?
Bingo!

I figured. I was playing with some AI of my pictures and it made me look about 70. So now that my self-confidence has been destroyed, I shall play with AI no more.

My girl says the expression on the Ai along with the face is damn close

After the deload im cutting some fat off my routine mostly on the assistance work.
Put this thread to good use and went back and looked at what I logged several years ago.
After one of the threads got me thinking. I wouldn’t call myself a minimalist. But on the other had im not about throwing a bunch of different exercises for the sake of verity.
