Let The Dog Drive The Bus

You’re just built for deadlifting, aren’t you. Like maybe your arms hang down past your knees.

It does feel pretty natural.

I’m thinking of dropping deadlift for a while til my squat comes up. I get carried away with it and feel wiped out for a couple of days after. I’d probably have better recovery for Squats were I to lay off for a month.

Was very tired (hungover) yesterday, so decided to skip gym today to get a bit more sleep. Hopefully will get to gym tomorrow or Sunday and get a Squat pr.

Missed a couple of sessions last week, it’s a busy week with my birthday, then my dad’s, then valentines day, then my partners birthday. Had a very lazy weekend.
Finished early today as there is lots of flooding and closed roads on my route home. Trained at lunch time which was novel, thought I’d have loads of energy, but didn’t! Passed on trying a Squat pr, and Db bench was well down.

You appear to basically squat and bench nearly every session, no?

What’s wrong with that have you even read my log. :joy::joy::joy:

Yup, Squat, then a press, then a pull, then some fluff.
I’m enjoying it lots.

It Wendler’s “more squatting” routine from the 2nd edition.

Now that I think of it…do you do anything BESIDES squat? lol

Wendler has more editions than Dungeons & Dragons at this point, and here I am still stuck on the first.
