here’s something a little more revealing…

abductor tear?
Ouchie, dude. I hope that’s not as bad as it looks.

it was worse than it looked right there. that took over a year to come back from. i had a very long tear down the length of the muscle.

Awesome. Hit that 520 against bands and it wasnt as much of a grinder as I was expecting. Back squats I thought I would get a few reps and probably could fresh, but I fell forward on that 2nd rep at the top of it. Those front squats were pretty painful again. I got 15 reps before having to rest the first time… its pretty hard that late in the workout.
Your new avatar isn’t for the squeamish.

that’s okay… you need to slow down anyway. i want to get my calves up to 20 inches before you blow by me and up to your previous 21 inches or so.

Hah, the only thing from Muscle and Fiction in the 80s that I think really worked was the advice to train your calves 4-6 times a week. Made mine grow. Little else in that magazine helped me though…
Nice work meet.
deficit pulls kill me.
Are your’ hips beat after sumo?

Those deadlifts are barely mid shin on me… they dont feel THAT different then just pulling from the floor, except that maybe I dont have quite as much speed comin up. Just wasnt feeling well last night. Been drinking too much caffeine lately, too much processed food, etc. Gonna limit caffeine to one morning cup of coffee and cut out my processed crap ive been eating.
315 felt like nothin but still wasnt feeling that great during it. Those last 2 exercises left me barely able to walk out of the gym, lol.

Great night. Ive been worrying about my bench lately, and tonight was the night to test it. We have the competition in less than 2 weeks now, and almost 1 year ago exactly we did the same push/pull and I got 280/540. So if I can manage to hit at least 320, that will be 40 lbs added to my bench in a year. I would like to make that 50 lbs… we’ll see. I was in the 242 weight class last year also, and I will TRY to be in it again this year, lol. Oh, and ill get that 315 bench video up later when scott is able to upload it.
Triceps were fried after doing that other stuff.
Surprised scott didnt post last night, since I know he doesn’t have work today. hope his power didnt go out or something, lol.
