The End

PR

looks like you pushed that 185 up pretty easy! nice work!

Thanks Racer, I was thinking “I gotta beat that Racer377 guy on this!”

I’m gunna get you, sucka

No, it isn’t the Marine Corps Birthday today, it’s on the 10th, but I saw this and had to post it here. I’ll definitely post it up elsewhere come Wednesday, but wanted it here as well for anyone who might care (racer).

This year marks the 235th Anniversary of the birth of the Marine Corps. From 1775, through today, Marines have fought in every clime and place, all over the world. This video is the Commandants message to us Marines, with special emphasis on those who fought in the Korean War. Those men gave it all. Those men had balls. Those men wouldn’t curl in the squat rack :wink:

Thanks N…I could take you up on that when you come down to escape the cold :wink:

Calves and Arms tonight, just to “do something”

Did standing barbell calf raises, and worked up to 315 lbs, which is way more than I’ve ever had on my back. Unracked it, walked it out, raise x some, and rack. Even did a couple 1/4 squats to feel what it’s like to move with that much.

Pumped the guns a little, then called it a day.

Back Brutalization

Deadlift “5” week
warmed up with 135/225
240x5
275x5
315x9 *This is easily a rep PR. Hell, I lost count when doing them, I thought I did 7, until I watched the video. Go me!

Rack Pulls (From a couple inches below the knee this time, killer)
225x5
250x5
275x5
*Had intended on going 300 and 325x5 each, but low back was straining so I stopped.

Pendlay Rows
155x10
165x10
165x8

BB Rows
185x10 *Rep PR
185x8
185x7

Shrugs (Squeeze at the top, slow descent)
225x10/10 *put on straps, 2 more sets of 10.

Domination, complete.

So why NOT use Pantera’s “Domination”??

315

damn Ink - those are some nice PR’s.

domination it was. well done.

Thanks N :slight_smile:

Bench today

185x5
210x5
240x3*
*After failing to get the prescribed 5+, I will admit I was pissed. My bench hadn’t been progressing with 5/3/1 lately and thoday just really got to me. SO I immediately used that as my “workup” to the Coan’s bench cycle, with a max bench that is = to my squat max, I figured hell…switch to Coan’s setup for benching, and keep up with 5/3/1 for squats until that goes retarded too.

So I did 2 sets of 185x10. Last set was hard, the last 4 reps were burning like hell and I wasn’t sure if I’d finish it.

Then did some floor presses
185x5
205x5
225x5
240x3 *Felt good, though 1 was going to be my limit, so that was nice.

Incline Bench
135x10
155x8
155x5

Counter Dips
BW x some

That was it. “Easy” day in terms of volume I suppose, but I’m working to increase that.

Also, my calves are sore a shit today from yesterday’s run. I also went out and got some new running shoes from Roadrunner Sports, where they do an analysis of your running form and use a slow motion camera wo see how your foot impacts while you run, making the able to decide what type of stability you need, etc. Was pretty cool, and walked out of there with the most comfortable running shoe’s I’ve ever had. Let’s just see how they hold up to the miles I’ve got to log in prep for this Half Marathon, shall we?

PS, they’re the Saucony Progrid Guide 3, if you’re interested.

Have you watched the EliteFTS “so you think you can bench” series? If not, DO IT!

Learning how to keep my shoulder blades retracted and depressed from that vid was probably the single best thing I ever did for my bench. I’m still not using a back-arched powerlift style bench, just that one little shoulder blade thing, and it has helped SO much. I feel stronger and more stable. Try it, you’ll like it.

and 315x9 is awesome, nice work!

I have watched it, but I think I need to re-watch it and take notes, ON bench day so that I can go right into implememting everything. Thanks for reminding me of it.

In other news…my chest is sore as shit, as is my back (still), and my calves from running on Saturday. Need to run tonight, and train legs I think. Weights first, run later.

Both of these posts made me laugh a lot harder than they should have. Maybe it’s the diet of wine and ibuprofen I’ve been on this evening…

Squats
180x3
205x3
230x4
Didn’t feel as “worked” as I felt I should have been, so after a couple minutes rest…
230x1 *This was sloooow. Guess I was worked more than I thought.
135x20/20 *Lower back was really tight and fatigued now

Possible video upload, if I feel like it

BB Hip Thrust (I think it’s called that. Where you lay on your back, BB over your hips, and you power-hump the air)
135x15
225x10/10
275x3
*Where exactly should the bar be? My pelvis feels as if an elephant stood on it, and I was using a folded up towel that helped at 225, not at 275

RDL’s
155x12
185x12
225x10

Lying Leg Curls
70x12/10/10

Leg Extension
70x15
90x20
110x30 *This was painful!

Sissy Squats
BWx10/10/10

Done.

Still plan on running later, probably on the treadmill while the wife hits the streets and the girls are asleep

Hi :slight_smile:
