Meadows row: 50x3 (15,12,13)
One armed barbell row: 50x3x10
Rear delt fly: 15x3x14
100 curls (40 lbs) rest pause

Notes:

  • Decided to make today a back and biceps birthday session

  • Felt really good in my shoulders and elbows after all the dips

You are so far ahead of where I was that age. You have such an exciting future

@SvenG Thanks man
@T3hPwnisher thank you for the kind words. Really appreciate it. Just to be clear the prime comment was sarcasm (I’ll be past my prime after next years birthday lol)

Oh sarcasm firmly registered (you’re 19, it’s like your default setting, haha), but I legit get giddy with excitement seeing dudes like you and @tlgains and @round2lifting and @creative_name that are taking all these lessons and rolling with it. I love watching the potential unfold.

BTM W6D5

Squat: 255x5, 190x20 (6x5 to get to 50) 12 deep breaths used as timer
OHP: 105x12x5
100 pull aparts
100 shrugs

Notes:

  • Yeah it’s not part of BTM but hitting the widowmaker and then rest pausing to 50 is fun as hell
  • Deload week and then Super Squats (Thinking about using 225 to start)
  • I signed up for the garage gym competition this week. So the question is do I hit 1rms or just not do it at all (during the deload week)? Any advice will be appreciated

So excited for you. Make sure you read it at least twice, so much good stuff gets missed the first time.

Are there any chapters I should pay extra attention to besides like the chapter that talks about mindset and the program chapter?

95

It is all good to read. Lots of history about the squat and training in general which I always find interesting.

Section 3 'Your Program, pages 46 to 50 which talks about the squats and how to do them. This is the section most people miss read or plain forget it. Page 48 explains doing some of the squat reps in detail, this explanation finishes on page 50. @T3hPwnisher may have some other sections that he likes but for me this is the key.

appreciate it!

Oh so true. It’s amazing how many people can screw up something so simple. But, of course, they screw it up by making it easier!

Deload week

50 band push downs
50 neck raises
50x100 reverse hyper

Notes:

  • Warmup for Kalsu but something told me not to do it. Mentally feel exhausted and physically feel beat up for no reason. Will tackle Kalsu tomorrow
  • Did get some running in with the pup so it was wasn’t a completely wasted day
  • I’ve also been super hungry lately so I may just be pregnant

conditioning

30 Burpee chins (20lb vest): 6:20

Notes:

  • More focused on getting it done in the morning vs setting a pr
  • My left bicep tendon by my shoulder is hurting so these were my last pull-ups for the week
  • Not sure how to help this recover but might do some light bicep curls and get a nasty pump after doing kalsu

conditioning

Kalsu (not even scaled just straight bastardized):
5 burpees
65x5 push press
10 rounds

Tabata Bike sprints (4 round and then the peddle broke off)

bicep curls

Notes:

  • That poor excused of a kalsu was my getting to yes. Shoulder/bicep issue didn’t want to push too far, hurts labrum to get full grip on bar and do a thruster. Even that shit is hard for me
  • Following point 1, I’m weak and out of shape
  • Follow up to point 2, a couple of months ago, I wasn’t doing any consistent conditioning so it’s improvement and that’s what matters
  • As lil baby once said “I might be first and second but i won’t ever be last”
