Thanks LS. Joe, you need a prowler. That’s all there is to it.
Bench day, 3s, TM 260 (20 lbs. drop)
Bench: 45 x 30, 90 x15, 135 x 10, 185 x 3, 205 x3, 235 x 7 (meh).
IDBBench: 50 x10, 70 x 10, 90 x8.
Krocks: 110 x 10, 120 x 10, 130 x10, 140 x10.
DBBench: 75 x10, 10, 8.
BBRows: 135 x 10, 10, 20.
Pushups (feet on bench): 15.
Notes: My bench is still in the toilet, but today felt good. I kept the pace up and was sweating like a pig before it was over. I think I need to increase my frequency and get back to 4 workouts in 7 days if I am going to make any progress on bench.
Squats: 45 x 10, 135 x 10, 225 x5, 275 x3, 315 x 3, 345 x 7.
Front squats: 135 x 5, 225 x 5, 275 x1, 305 x 1 (PR +30), 315 x 0.
Notes: Happy fathers day! Got in, got out, had a good time. 305 felt easy on front squats, so I threw on 10 lbs. more and no go. My lower back was fried by then. Next time.
Side notes: The wife and I are looking at RVs to go camping in (that’s what my extended family does, so that’s that) and also to use as a home office. What a pain. We can’t decide motorhome or fifth wheel and a new truck.
Impress them folk up yonder wit this here beaut. Ah, if only I could get me one.
Your front squats are getting seriously strong. Good lifting all around.

Harry, I put a bid in on that one, but unfortunately it did not exceed the reserve. I am going to have to find one a little more in my price range.
Deads: 45 x10, 135 x 10, 225 x 5, 315 x 5, 365 x 3, 405 x4.
Deads: 315 x 10, 10, 10, 10, 10.
Notes: I was supposed to press a few days ago, but I had some distractions and one skipped day turned into another. I felt like I needed some real work, so I skipped to my 1’s day for deads. 405 felt ok, I had 1 or 2 in the tank. I almost lost my lunch after the BBB set. And I almost lost it again on the way home. It was my little way of paying penance for the missed work this week. I have not had much chance to catch up on other logs, I’ll try and do few at a time till I’m caught up.
Thanks for stopping in K, SteelyD and Joe, I appreciate it. Rick, you are probably the best conditioned mofo on here. But thanks for the props. The prowler needs more work, my schedule has been hectic, but I need to make it a priority. Steve, not every set, but the last two had me wondering what the f I was doing.
Bench day, 1’s, TM 260.
Bench: 45 x 30, 95 x 15, 135 x 10, 195 x 5, 225 x 3, 245 x 5.
Notes: I felt pretty good today. My bench limit strength is poor, but I felt like I worked hard. The rows just about did me in. I am going to feel it tomorrow.
I don’t think I could even manage 30 or so reps of anything resembling a deadlift! Nice!
