Notes.
I need to train with the belt for a bit to get used to it, its harder to hit depth,
but you can PUSH wit de abs.
305 felt fine, 8 rep or so got hard
the wrist wraps helped with keeping my forarms vertical felt good.
front squats, 5x10 is too much for me, 4x8 instead.
BSS- still love these, great pump after these too.
NGHR the exercise you love to hate.
thanks for looking
I realize reading all these other logs is giving me a decent lifting education
thanks.
KMC,
I hear you on the education part. I’ve lifted all my life but learned more in the last 18 months. Nice work on the squats. I like the way you have set up your squat day. What height is the bench for the split squats?
Thanks Chit town…
531 lets you do basically what ever you like for accessory work
so I picked those, the BSS I do just of a regular bench so 19" inches or close to it.
Its true about the education , watching some of the other liftes cycle their lifts
or their pairings is super valuable.
As your belt breaks in and forms to your body it will become less of a hinderance. And for you how far do you have to go anyway, two inches? j/k
My legs feel like used dirt.
Nice looking work kevin, keep it up.
that’s some good skwattin’!
I didn’t realize that stocky midgets could get so strong.
Great lifting Kevin. So are you black, Irish, stocky and around 5’6’'(which isn’t even close to being a midget)?? Or does the title have a different meaning??
Hey, a new log! You are a popular guy.
thanks people.
Steve, yes to all the above

I liked using the belt on OH press these are starting to feel like something.
DB oh press- I enjoy doing these one arm , they make the abs feel good.
pullups- Right arm tendonitis seems to have passed Left arm , has it now worse then the right.
fug me. I might actually need to do something for this.
thats it. felt good to train fast.

thanks for loking.
Were you born in Ireland?? Have a cool accent?? I’m just nosy.
The serious stuff
You’re putting up some good weight and you’re also doing a lot of stuff most of us aren’t, eg, front squats, oh squats, whole lot of stretching. Good work, keep it up.
The title of your new thread brought to mind some facts about the Irish…
- You will never play professional basketball.
- You swear very well.
- At least one of your cousins is a fireman, cop, bar owner, or holds public office, and you have at least one aunt who is a nun, or uncle who’s a priest.
- You think you sing very well.
- You have never hit your head on a ceiling.
- You spent a good portion of your childhood kneeling in prayer (Catholic guilt forever!)
- You’re strangely poetic after a few beers, you are, therefore, poetic a lot.
- Many of your sisters and/or cousins are named Mary, Catherine, or Eileen, and there is at least one member of your family with the full name of Mary Catherine Eileen.
- There wasn’t a huge difference between your last Wake and my last keg party.
- You are, or know someone, named Murph.
Eco…

Just trying to put a face with the name. No exchanging of fluids or anything.
Hmmm close to many Irish. Great people to hang with. My wife is 3/4 of the Chicago Irish variety, but a several of my closest friends are off da boat, one from Gallway, another from Belfast. Sometimes they insist I wake up at 7 a.m. on weekends to go to a pub and watch football. Nothing like it being noon and you have already had 6 pints of Guinness.
