I’m totally fried, 4 days straight this week (I usually take at least 1-2 days off during 4 training sessions. I really wanted to get all my lifting in before I left. Won’t do this again, my dead lifts felt like 500lbs. Planning on lots of swimming, body weight work, and running over the next 5 days. I’m packing some bands as well.
Adios for a few days Amigos!
Like the new log title, so easy to find you.
Wheres the pics/vids of the 3 of you? I only have one more log to search, ha!
Enjoy Mexico
We’ll take video at the next join up…which will be a squat session. Matty will squat 4 plates ATG at that one.

Started every day in Mexico with a 3 mile barefoot sand run followed by serious band work. sand kills calves!!I packed my orange bands and wrestled with them everyday.

Really felt rust on squats but plowed through. I’ve been restoring my clean diet one meal at a time this week. So as of today I’m back on a “food as fuel” approach to what I’m eating. it was fun while it lasted.

I think moving my home gym into my garage soon. I have the luxury of having an extra space and want some more room to train in. During the winter it will build character as its unheated!
Love the pic! Is that your wife? you’re a lucky man!

After doing the paused bench I did my usual “turn on the video camera and don’t think about reps” and hit 12 with really tucked elbows and stayed tight through the whole movement. I’m going to bring my grip in on all my benching and see if it works out for me.
