i can’t believe 700 on a 2-board makes you a pussy. i wanna be a pussy too!
felt like dung today, some mild food poisoning or something. several trips to the can, and sat at my desked sweating for 10 hours. then came skwat night
raw 145 x 5 235 x 5 325 x 5
briefs 415 x 2 505 x 2 595 x 2 655 x 2 small 10 lb PR over 2 weeks ago
gonna just milk small prs in the squat. they are doable, and that way I shouldn’t burn myself out for benching and pulling, which is the focus right now
ghr 5 x 12
hanging abs 5 x 12
spotting my full meet training partners squatting in the 8s and 9s x 10 or 20
next cycle i should have a good base to push my skwat to where it should be, hopefully with some nice meet bench and dl prs
this is some good work.
all it took was a change in luck…

I am not a really big guy, but I have my concerns. I snore like a bastard and have some of those symptoms.
I have concerns. right now I need to get my septum fixed, for the past ten years it has been a smashed flap, which causes lots of snoring and sinus infections no matter my neck size…
25 minutes elliptical. just to keep move some blood around, and feel somewhat healthy. this sitting for 10 hours or more a day is killing me.
then I mowed the lawn. by this time of the year I am kinda over that…
700lb 2 board… I just couldn’t imagine it. Awesome job.

barbell curls 135 x 20
everything felt good there, but just didn’t want to be there

everyone was tired and things started out slow, but thanks to some caffeine/amino concoction, and the reality that we are getting closer to meet time things started moving.

GTL time
that deadlift of yours is really taking off. will you pull raw and the equipped for bench??
Very happy with my deadlift Meat. What got it going is pulling with a bunch of young dudes that would have passed me by, if I didn’t put more weight on the bar. This time around will be pulling RAWWWWWW. So I will be only 1/2 a gearwhore at this meet.

is that like a hooker than only gives BJ’s???
i know what you mean though… Jowee has really been taking off strength wise, especially on deadlift. i can’t let that boy catch up to me, so ive really been pushing it.
Outstanding effort, Pete.
Thanks Jack. I am excited to 700 in my hands soon.
25 minutes elliptical.
wife and kids flew to Chicago for the weekend
basement flooded with all the rain, going to have to replace part of the floor. have wanted to anyway, now I have a reason.

Nice deadlift pr. When is your meet?
There’s nothing like a little competition to drive the numbers up.

God damn, awesome benching.
Have fun with the floor, me and pops are working on building and office/media room in a old shed out back. Its been a pretty fun project and an excuse to get some cool new tools.
Damn good bench session and the deadlifts are great. Been a long time since I’ve used a gym that kept records. Miss that kind of enviroment.
