Realized I missed to log Week 2 day 3 last week but it was done!!
October 20, 2025
Tactical Barbell - Operator - Week 3 Day 1 - Cycle 2.5
Power Squat
270lbs x 5 reps
540 x 3 reps
630 x 4 sets x 3 reps
Was supposed to be 540LBS for the working sets but felt too easy for a 90% week so i upped it to 630 (14 plates total)
Weighted Chin Ups
BW (225) + 15 lbs x 5 sets x 5 reps
Was feeling strong overall so instead of sets of 3 I did sets of 5 instead, week 6 I’ll add 25lbs or 35lbs for the 95% week!
Neutral Grip Cable Rows
185 x 4 sets x 15 reps
Captain’s Chair
25lbs x 3 sets x 15 reps
Was a great session overall, had to wait a little bit for the power squat so I did some band work for my shoulder and chest and then while my wife was benching I did a couple of super slow sets with her weights on bench and the slow eccentric really helped minimize my chest pain and crunching on the inside.
Will experiment with more super slow tempo light benching.
Woke up this morning at 4:15 AM and got on my bike for a 25km ride! Was a cool 4 degrees but I layered properly was a great ride. Taking as many rides as possible before the long winter begins.
Just keep moving!
