I had a good pump by the end of today. Made traversing the ship interesting with all the stairs. Next leg day I’m going to work in Bulgarians and Goblet Squats depending on how my back feels.
@FlatsFarmer Thank you for the info. I’m going to try these out!
Oh man, the stairs. I mentioned taking my family for a tour of Nimitz recently right? It was ALL STAIRS and the smaller kids struggled with it.
I had forgotten i probably did a mile per day just climbing stairs back then.
Oh yeah ladder wells to everywhere lol

Felt great today. Reps felt super controlled and I was contracting hard. Started flexing for 15 seconds after each set, which was brutal. Was recommended by a friend and I didn’t think it could hurt, got a huge pump from it.
Our dumbbells jump from 110 to 130 then to 150, so I have a gym partner hold 10lb plates on to make 120 and 140, adapt and overcome.
Thanks for all the activity lately, it’s sick having like minded people to chat with while I’m in the middle of the ocean.

Felt good overall. Still getting lower right back back but I’m trying to stretch and floss my IT Band, hopefully it’ll help more and more. I’d like to get back to deadlifting soon.

Very active “rest day”
Did some aggressive stretching after work today and then rolled straight into BJJ Club for 2 hours. Was nice to be back on the mats. Oh boy did I forget how hard BJJ is one your core and the different type of strength it takes. I’m going to be feeling this one for sure.
