It’s awesome seeing your squat and dead numbers rise, but damn your press has just exploded since you started logging. Noticing the impact on your upper body?

I definitely have - I’m overdue for posting a physique picture but my traps and delts have been looking huge, especially when I put my hair in a bun so they’re not covered lol.
Which is great, because big traps/delts/neck is always a good look.

Depth was bordering on these - not bad enough to not count the PR, and pausing to go frame-by-frame I think 6 of 7 actually did end up hitting depth, but I’ll take care to improve on this next cycle. Still very happy with it.
Classes started back up today, and I take my first actual attempt at the LSAT this Saturday, which I’m feeling great about.

I need to start bringing a resistance band or something to put on these benches, they’re too slippery to get set well. I leg-drove myself far enough backwards that the last three reps of this set all hit the j-hooks.

I bought an A7 grip shirt for benching during the summer. Makes a lot of difference!

@freshyfresh I’d never heard of those, but I just googled and it looks like it would be a good fix. Might buy one.

Deload over, too uneventful to bother logging much. Top sets for this cycle will be 175/220/375/430 for fives.

Top set was way harder than it should’ve been. Not quite sure why, but we’ll see how next week feels. Still hit all the reps.
(Edit: should’ve been 350x5. Oops.)
Doing these rows with one hand and one knee/shin/foot on a bench, as opposed to just one hand (which is how I normally do them). Seems to be slightly harder since the last gets stretched more and I can’t get momentum from my hips (I.e. Kroc rows)

This went up easily, feeling confident about next week’s top set.
(@T3hPwnisher - thought you might appreciate this because of all you’ve written about your time gaining in college)
The dining hall a block from my dorm has a made-to-order omelet station, and the guy who they have running it recognizes me as a regular because I go there like two or three times a day. He’s started making me double/triple sized omelets unsolicited (which look obscene on a plate - it’s like a four-inch pile of egg, cheese, ham, and mixed veggies) and made some comment today along the lines of “no wonder you’re looking so jacked, I feed you like ten eggs a day”

Hah! That’s outstanding dude: thanks so much for sharing it with me. Always good to build up those positive relationships with the people that feed you.

That’s so cool. Already getting recognised as ‘that guy’ and at such a young age.

Starting light with BSS so I don’t spend the next week sore from them and fuck with my deadlifts. This moved easier than last week’s top set, so it looks like whatever the issue was has cleared up.
