thanks boss. I should get back to +45 lbs soon considering I’m under 200 lbs now. I’m a far way off from your level though

Yeah, I am jealous for sure.
Hey BD, I was thinking of using 5/3/1 high frequency when I’m back in a surplus. I asked about it earlier in your log but can’t find it. Did you like it? Why did you move to something else?

I liked it a lot and got some good strength and physique gains off of it. The only thing I didn’t like was the bench frequency being so low. The pdf on his site had a typo at the time, so as long as you correct it to have bench and military alternating, you should be fine. I moved on after finishing two months or whatever he recommended max for it. I’ll definitely try it again when I’m bored of what I’m doing now.

I haven’t been able to walk well the past couple of days due to pain/swelling/redness in my left quad, so I’m glad I was able to bench and get some semblance of tightness

I took a wider grip and everything felt pretty solid. My pinkies were on the rings. Usually when I go wide it seems tough on my shoulders or I lose tightness, but this way felt pretty packed in and used my chest better than my usual close grip style of course

this felt really easy. My chest is still sore so I went very close grip (index about a finger away from smooth) but everything felt solid still. I think my chest is my biggest bench weakness as of now.
