This was done beginner prep school style, 1-1.5 minute rests between main lifts, push ups or abs between deadlift sets, chin ups or band pullaparts between pressing sets. Assistance done in a circuit, exercises back to back with 1 min rest before restarting. I’m still on the fence if I’m going to keep this day like this or come in and lift Thursday and Friday to make it a 4 day split.

Also did 100 band pullaparts this morning. I forgot I’m going away again this weekend through Tuesday, so training is going to be messed up again. Im doing my week 3 weights this week since I don’t know when I’ll able to lift again next week, maybe not until Wednesday.

Didn’t do much working out during vacation. I think on Sunday I did a 10 min circuit of EMOM squats x10, push ups x10, band pullaparts x10, and otherwise did a lot of walking. I pedaled my kids around on a bike-cart thing for an hour on Tuesday.

I probably don’t need to do all this different shit, but it was fun. The SSB bar is Titan brand, their website says it’s 61lbs but I dont really know, I threw a 45 on each side and it felt really good. I never used a SSB before.

Honestly that warm-up was way too hard, particularly the side bends and glute thrusts, I guess I found some serious weaknesses. My ass was toast after the SLDLs, I was using my hands to assist GHR reps.

Man, that warmup killed me again, I’m still trying to pick the right difficulty for these, my legs and low back had a real bad pump after that. That made squatting feel much harder than it should have. I look at the numbers and it looks pathetic but I’ll get this dialed in and move forward. Fucking feel extra bad with some guy deadlifting like 500lbs right next to me for reps, what can I do but be persistent and patient.
