^Charlie, get yourself a bench to stand on. Get chin above bar & slowly lower yourself w/a 6 count. Wash, rinse, repeat.[/quote]

Okay will try that. How do you fit them in with your 5/3/1 schedule? [/quote]

Well, on Mil day, chins are the accessory. As for the other days I just block them in after I move through my main lift.

Like today, I did my 5/3/1 dl. Than I just s-setted my acces work w/the deads & the wg pullups.

Band pull ups too!!!

Does your gym have those Charlie??

we only have the one pullup area(squat rack). So just reg chins and pullups I guess.

Seriously, would you want it any other way?

Had a squat day today! It’s been a couple of months since the last one.

I did my box pistols first. I did about 3 sets of 5 for each leg on the bench press bench(for my box), then I tried a lower bench(below parallel) and it was okay to slowly lower to the bench but could not get up on one leg, so I would squat up then slowly lower myself to the box(trying not to drop) and then squat up with both legs. And then a final set of 5 pistol each side on the high bench.

Box squats. Started with a high box(slightly above parallel) went from bar up to 85lbs, then tried the low box(below parallel), then added a plate to the low box to bring it up a bit higher. There is more knee travel the lower I get and it seems to happen when coming up not when sitting down. I will have to practice that I think. Hmmm. I could maybe practice this at home with a broom stick. Will think about it.

Did sprints too but not an all out effort, ground was too water logged and squishy for that. Also did sprints on the weekend at work too.

I know, but if your gym has bands you can loop it around. I think it’s a more natural progression towards the goal of real big girl pull ups! :slight_smile:

Cool vid Mims, thanks!

I’ll have to buy my own bands though. Will look into that. :slight_smile:

Nope! It’s where I am the most comfortable.

Just keep following the path Charlie. You’re gonna get there.

We’ll master the pull-ups. Promise ya that.

so on Deads with this program, are you mad-pulling on the last few sets, or is it manageable?

I was asked not to. He wants to do it in his own time, in his own way.

Workout updates people?!

That is all.

No gym today, will probably do de load shoulders tomorrow or just skip it for my wrists sake. Meh.

I did do my sprint workouts tonight though.

They were awesome, I can tell it’s going to be good when the skipping part of my warm up is good and springy and it was :smiley:

The first was okay but the rest were all longer than my best day last week and I was totally doing the scary Tom Cruise sprint face too. Doms from squat day the day before were not a problem. :slight_smile:

I think I’ll be upping the number of sprints next week to 5 per session.

This is The Monsters opinion of my foam rolling endeavors.

Real manageable. I was getting torn up doing the 5@10. My body was past the DOMS & rt into sore/hurt. So going to a 5x5 route saves my body & allows me to go a bit heavier.

Bench-
5@75
5@95
3@115
5@125
5@145
5@165

5x5 @ 135

S-setted w/

Inc. ben. d-bell row.

5x10 45/w 1 adder wt. Having power blocks just plain sucks. I’ve no clue how much the adder wt is. I’m guessing 2lbs so that would make it actually 47lbs. & as I’ve said before this ex. is humbling to say the least.

Chins w/25

5x5 6th set, no belt qty of 8

S-setted w/

Floor press

5x5 @145.

Overall good blood rush to the chest & kicked last weeks floor press number in the ass.

Ab circuit.

10 sit-ups
10 HLR
10 roll outs

Did this 2x.
