I’ve been no max efforting for awhile now…it’s all good.
…I get to this point with the heavy stuff and back way off and switch to high volume, almost forcing a 6 month deload, lol… oh well.
Good looking deload, now go eat.
Let’s not start up with the snatch talk again, girls. Then again, why not?
Yeah, if that’s your idea of a de-load nlmain . . . Looks like a helluva lot of work to me.
It is a lot for a deload week. But it’s an unplanned Time Of Month deload, so that doesn’t count 
I guess if she did that for a much needed deload week, then that might be too much.
I want to curl 50 lbs 
I’ll stick to my 20s. sigh
snap: it was a lot of little things. No max effort or big lifts. But don’t worry about me snappy-cakes I’m on vacation in less than 2 weeks and will have my true de load at that time. so in that case this week is a partial de-load.
Nikki: that was a BB curl - like curling 2x 25’s which I’m sure you can do. The bb makes it easier cause it allows your stronger arm to assist da lazy one. As for doing snatches - MIM posted an awesome training vid in my log somewhere which really helped me. I added 10lbs to my max just learning how to do it right.
MIM: what ever gets your ass moving and in the gym is my moto. If you like the high rep stuff don’t let the max effort group shoot you down. To each his cake.
Joe: and food there was.
1- protein, table spoon of fish oil, handful of organic ancient whole grain cereal
2- Lefe dark beer
3- mini-pizza (crumpet, pesto, sliced mushroom and tomatoes cheese, bake in toaster over sprinkle with pepper)
4- big ass bowl of oats with choco pp and a dallop of organic peanut butter while watching Family Guy’s Star Wars Spoof.
Those were my meals after my evening workout. I’m milking my last few weeks of bulk with no shame.
edit:" just re-read my poste and saw that I wrote cake twice. Now you know what’s on my mind during this time of the month.
points finger Now go bake me a cake! lol.
:drool:
Now I want cake.
N, I said that I’ll stick to my 20s! If I could do 25s, then I’ll stick to those 
50 lb BB curls will make my arms fall off.
I did say that I didn’t like to train biceps. And I meant it. Which is why they’re marshmallows.
damn nice deload. you said dark beer. yum!
and you mentioned another vacation. you canadians get a lot of those or somethin’? 
seriously though, great work! do you have any special plans for vacation?
Hey T: I get 2 weeks vacation per year however my job requires me to work over time quite a few times a year. They don’t pay “overtime” but I can accumulate those days and take them back.
For my summer vacation I’m going hiking in the Northern regions of Quebec: Temiscamingue to be precise - we rented a little cabin where we will be staying for a week. We decided to do something local and inexpensive 'cause I have my diving trip in Cozumel booked for January and that’s a little pricey so I’m saving my pennies.
That was some hard work, m’dear. Thanks for reminding me about snatches! So easy to forget them for me.
your local vaca sounds PERFECT
Last time I was in Cozumel I had WAY to much tequila and tequila makes my clothes fall off somehow.
Oh sorry for that visual, you should have a great time taking pics when you are down there as well as when you go hiking.

Maybe you should drink some tequila before you vid your next DLs.
lol - you guys are nuts as this trip to Cozumel will be a total solo adventure vacay there will be no drinking, but a lot of diving and pictures.
MIM: we are lucky we know people who are willing to rent the place to us for a week for half the going price at this time of year - major win!
Kimba: thanks madame. I know snatches aren’t everyone’s cup of tea.
Tonight’s partial deload:
clean&press
started with the preloaded bars cause the rack was busy
70lbs 1x12
80lbs 1x5
with normal bar
95lbs 1x1 + 2 presses, 1x1
good mornings - practicing stance and such
65lbs 1x12
85lbs 1x12
95lbs 1x12 too easy had to try heavier
115lbs 1x5 I beleive this might be a 10lbs PR. but I’d have to swim through my logs to find it so let’s assume it is. at least withg proper for it is.
zercher squats
95lbs 5x5
V-Twists (abs) 7kg medecine ball
3x12 each side

called it a day. And for you Joe poste workout nutrition included a nice big sammich of canned organic non-salted tune mixed with chipotle hummus on sprouted grain toast. Oh yeah and a few leaves of baby spinach thrown in there for some veg. Topped with another dark belgian beer. There will be another pre-bed snack. Not decided as to what yet.

Trust me, nobody wants to see that.
MIM: cake’s going to be this weekend - we’re celebrating my Uncle b-day. I will shovel that cake to my face, you have no idea. But really my one true love is pie. Raspberry pie. Damn. now I want pie. Somebody make me a pie. now.
lol
Joe: solo vacations are for total adventure filled weeks of doing stuff that I want to do. Sometimes you just have to chin up and do them alone or you’d never do em. I’m sure I’ll find some cool peeps to hang out with but rule of thumb for a woman traveling alone - stay sober, smart and alert. This has never failed me so far.
