Nice job on the PR’s man, also good to hear your biceps didn’t fall off

Crazy RDLS. Super impressive!
Couple of motivational quotes…
“The Iron never lies to you. You can walk outside and listen to all kinds of talk, get told that you’re a god or a total bastard. The Iron will always kick you the real deal. The Iron is the great reference point, the all-knowing perspective giver. Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds.”
-Henry Rollins
“It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.”
-Theodore Roosevelt
Thanks phlegms! They’re ok I guess…haha. Really focusing on getting a BIG stretch and driving the hips through hard at the top.
Looked like you could’ve gotten a few more reps. Noice PR nonetheless.

Yeah probably couldve, wanted to leave some in the tank for back squats. That obviously failed…should’ve just went HAM on the zerchers
For some reason my squat days recently seem shitty and I’m not attempting zercher squats before hand lol. You will have a way better day next time man!
Thanks Elmore, I know I will. Cant expect to hit a big zercher PR then a big squat PR too lol!

Solid PR on HS decline, heaviest Ive ever gone. Next chest day will be back to using decline as my main movement.
Hell yeah man congratulations on the bench pr!

NOTES: Really good tricep day. Awesome pump and could really feel the triceps working. Good PRs all around. I like the higher rep floor press, good pump! Great day overall, off day tomorrow and DEADLIFTING on wednesday, hell yes!
Looks like a pumptastic day. Bet your long head of your tricep was pumped to hell after pullovers and OH extensions. I’m assuming you did the OH ext 2 hands at a time (50lbsx8 one handed would be beastly. lol)
The high rep floor presses are rough but always feel good.

Heck ya it was! The OH ext were one handed lolol jk. Triceps were dead by the time i got to that, 50lbs felt like 100 haha.
Reverse grip CGBP? Sounds interesting, how does it compare to regular CGBP? Moar pumpage?
Also, I’m deadlifting Wednesday too, we can totally be deadlift bros together

Nah just reverse grip bench press, regular grip. The reverse grip hits triceps really well. Honestly to me they feel like two different beasts, I can feel different parts of my triceps working on both.
Awesome man! We are totally going to be deadlift PR bros together!
Great lifting! Your crazy getting pr’s on cgb and rgb lol
