Box Squats 5/3/1
Lots of warmups with GM’s and Front Squats @95#. I know, I still suck!!! 
175x5
225x3
250x1
275x1 Tied previous PR. I know, it’s low. But, at least I’m doing them again with minimal pain and agony. Now I have a working number for my next few cycles. Decided that was good for today.
Great work. And minimal pain and agony is a priority…well, injury pain and agony.

Heavy pulls coming up then a week of f’in around…ie deload!
Sweet pressing. I’ve never tried hammerstrength machines. What do you think 300 lb hammerstrength would be on a bar?

Well, I’ve previously done 220 seated front shoulder press so right now I’m going with 250-260, seeing how Ive done 240 standing. At least that is my story and I’m sticking to it.

Those are great numbers. I am soooooo far away from a 200lb overhead press it is not funny.

Took daughter to the ortho today. Looking at a miminum of 6k to fix her mouth. I wasn’t really in too much shock (2nd with braces) but DAMN!!!
Sumo Pulls (new to me) Feet about 6 inches from plates. I’m accepting pointers. I set up, grab the bar, lower my ass, arched off course, then use hips and ass to start the pull. Sound right?
Worked up to 1@315
Standing Mils
11x1@170
Good for today.
Ouch! $6000? That sucks! I am so dreading my kids getting there. I won’t ever be able to afford to retire.

If only if were so easy. Give us a vid. This is one lift I just can’t do well.

Retire? Is that where we can pay for everything and not work? I don’t see that happening.
Nice pr’s in here. Good work .

Deload over…again. Did lots of mobility work for my hips and ass during this deload. Was feeling great. Bench day. Back tweaked again. I think it’s the arch thats doing it. It seems my back is fine till I hyper extend, ie arch, for bench.
Anyways, switched weeks around. Giving it a go

Cable rows, pulldowns, and face pulls…3 sets each. I think I’m gonna start limiting all rep work to 5 reps. My bicep tendons start to hurt, not ache, over 5 reps of any pulling type excercise
Looking good, Rug. Millies, millies everywhere!
Got called into work for a few weeks so I’ve been slacking on logging. Here is the makeup information.
