OMG COOL !! Youāre another one of those people in that lifting group where everyoneās name is kyle? Lol.
Awsome lift though, you stayed so upright, ha-ha.

Kind of disappointed that 605 didnāt go, but I think some concentrated lockout work and continuing the SLDLs will get me there in a few months.
Probably going to switch my training to something different soon. Twice a week linear progression style sort of thing. Squat and bench one day and deadlift and press the other. Maybe there will be an accessory/GPP day also weāll see. My equipment selection may not be as good either unless I find a sweet gym or sell my bike and buy my own set-up.
Gonna shoot for a 585 or better squat on Monday weāll see how it goes.

ME Squats 55x10, 145x5, 235x3, 325x1, 375x1, 235x1, 325x1, 415x1, 465x1, add light wraps 505x1, add heavy wraps 555x1, no wraps rev AVG 465x7
20 lb PR with relative ease. There was maybe 20 lbs left but I donāt think 585 was there like I was hoping, so I didnāt go for it.
July 13th
DE Squats 45x10, 5, 135x5, add AVG x3, 245x3, 3, 3, 3, 3 Walking out squats with high band tension sucks!
Some light deadlifting
Seated Leg Curls 110x10, 125x10, 140x10, 155x10, 10
Ab Wheel BWx7, 7, 7
So, I moved to Wisconsin (this is why I havenāt trained in a couple weeks) and was pretty bummed about leaving the gym and training partners where I lifted in Iowa, but things look pretty good here and I found a new place to train. It has most of what I want to train with and best of all they seem open to me building things and leaving some equipment there to use. Highlights: deadlift bar, squat bar, nice benches, and some good machines. Downside: no monolift or band pegs (but I will remedy the latter).
Glad to hear you found a good place to train! Weāre bummed not having you around anymore either, hope the move is going smoothly!

Good to see you posting and training again. How is Wisconsin?

Wisconsin is pretty good, lots of trees, rivers, and lakes. Itās been really hot though, only complaint. The new job starts tomorrow, so thatās exciting and I am looking forward to some good training. The new gym has 2 700 plus deadlifters, one of them pushing 800, so hopefully I can learn a thing or two.
July 16th
6 inch block pulls 135x10, 245x5, 335x3, 425x1, 475x1, 505x2, 2, 2, 2

Hanging Leg Raises BWx10, 10, 10
I met a couple guys that Iāll be training with tonight and guess what? One of them is named Kyle! It seems to be the most common powerlifting name after allā¦
