Took some video of my warm up sets to check depth . First 2 were high as hell. ( whoops)Adjusted my safety catches down 3 inches so I was finally hitting what I consider proper depth in the pic above. Probably should have checked before I started using the new bar.
- As you can see in the pic that I have short femurs.
SQUATS: 3 X 5 @ 60%

See how my back feels tomorrow.

Back is slightly stiff this morning, nothing major.
Quads and hamstrings are feeling a little fried from depth change.

Damn… The app is giving me a -/+ 2.5 lbs weight range from the preset bodyweigh I established for maintenance.
Since my weight didn’t change…. It upped my cals ! I though we were done with this shit.
On one hand…. sure i got more leeway on food choices. BUT still eating is getting to be a choir.

I wonder at times if my size and strength standards might be slightly skewed. Relatively compared with your normal everyday person.

This made me reflect. Do you, like me, seriously consider going sumo - instead of trying to preserve what’s left of your (my) conventional deadlift? 
Hell im doing a trap bar for pulls. So it doesnt apply …lol
On another note… My hips are designed for actual sumo.

Bullpup lifting impressive weight; good diversion from AL/app criticism. You trained that young man so why do you need to follow an app?
More like write one…
What app? You mean my diet app?

Reverse hypers: 2 x 12
Standing cable abs: 2 x 15
Well I felt better today than I had yesterday and Sunday. Not sure if it was a slight bug or what.
The back is still not 100% got a feeling its going to be a few more weeks before I can start moving any normal training weight.

Just punched the clock. 2 more weeks i might start adding more shit back in and tweaking a few things. I would say the back is at 75%.
On a side note … I messured my upper arms for shits and giggles. Damn things are almost back to 18 inches cold. ( with some muscle separation and vascularity) so not a complete fatass arm
