Yeah I should eh? Never have but it’s pretty cheap, might give it some thought.
Thinking about getting someone to write my training for me for a bit, not going to do anything till my back’s 100% tho, will let you guys know what I decide.
Started my job! Pretty much gonna be 8-12 hours of labour/cleaning/looking busy/gettin money.
This is pretty much how it was:
Just instead of candy imagine there’s fiberglass and plastic resin, and instead of oompa loompas me and a bunch of other dudes are there, and we’re not singing lol. Other than that it’s exactly like the video.

Been working lots at my new job, getting used to longer hours and doing alot of random manual labour to make money. lb still not 100%, new job probably not helping. Might try some lighter lower body lifts tomorrow night if I feel up to it. Working an easy progression for my bench and trying out myo reps for my lighter lifts, but not being too strict about it.

sounds like your going through a tough spot.
Hang in there!
You’re working for Mr. Wonka? Luuuuuuucccckkkkky.
Sorry about the new stress. Tell Wonka that training is important to you and you need to find a middleground =D
I’m good guys, just tired. In the last week I’ve been switched from 10 hour days to 12 hour nights and back to 12 hour days so I’m feeling pretty weird. Hopefully once I’m a few weeks in everything will become more regular. Sound like it’ll eventually be regular 8 hr weekday shifts that shift from night to day and visa versa every 2 weeks, that I think I can deal with.
Decided to squat in my uncles home gym so I can get some sleep tonight. No belt.

felt good. Last set was all the weight he has for his set, and it was challenging with the buildup of fatigue. Sorry about the weird weights but they’re euro plates so it’s 44s 33s 22s 11s 5.5s and 2.75s, bar is a regular 45 tho.
First day off in 10 days! Weighed in at 204.8 this morning

conv deads felt good with a tight belt so I’ll try those tomorrow, just got to move up in weight slowly and put the weight through my glutes/hams as much as possible.
work kindof messed up my frequency here, think I’m gonna try to do all my heavy stuff on the weekends and do what I can the rest of the week between work. Still just easing back into lower body stuff.

IDK what a power squat is but congrats on the PR.
Work does get in the way of training.
LOL funny how it’s not the other way around.

nvm I guess it’s called a v-squat
I do them wide and deep tho
Yeah I’m not really used to working a full time labour job, going to take me a few weeks to find a groove. Really it’s like a doing a few hours of light cardio 5x a week
Thanks for stoppin by! 
good day today
bench
275x2
275x1, wanted 2x2 but oh well. Will probably back off next time to do some rep work unless I feel insanely strong. Or maybe I’ll do a variation? I’ve got mini bands and there’s a 2 board at the gym hmmm

Nice pr buddy. Keep workin hard. Doing the heavy stuff on your days off sounds like a good idea.

Thanks dawg, gonna figure something out here. Thinking I’ll do my high intensity work on the weekends then during the week I’ll hit the 8+ rep ranges.
did some curlz tonight after work since I don’t like doing them heavy with my back stuff for some reason.
bb curl
122x5
89x12
reverse
45x30
yeah buddy
That V squat looks like the same thing I call a hack squat. L O V E that machine. I always use it after squatting to finish my legs.
been 206.0 the last few days, I’ll probably let it climb up a bit while I’m healing.

Yeah man, definitely superior to the leg press and probably has more carryover to a regular squat since more muscle groups are used. That’s cool that you’ve been using it, when people say hack I usually think of a sliding one like the one ronnie used to use
squat (<60 sec rest)
225x12
185x14
135x15
v squat
90x20 lol
leg raises x3
plank x1
side plank x1
back felt the best it has with squats in a while, weak as shit but whatever. Was going to do more but figured I should save it for the weekend. squats with short rest periods is pretty tough, next time I’ll just do one top set and move on to more exercises.
at home gym after work:
bench
221x11
