Good work Shane! Man, that is some seriously impressive stuff on CGBP and Rows! Way to get after it!

Saw that you guys lost to the Saints? How did that happen???

Thanks Trent. Idk man, I didn’t get to watch much of the game. I know our kicker missed 2 field goals and got another one blocked. That’s 9 points, and would have won us the game if he made 2 out of 3 of them.

Great looking session Shane! Sorry to hear about the hammy strain. Hopefully that gets better soon. Still some solid reps!

Thanks Trent. It’s not a bad pull, more of a twinge but it told me I needed to back off. Hopefully so stretching tonight will set me right.

Wednesday Cardio
Wednesday weigh in 257


5 minute cool down

Cardio is definitely falling off. Legs were really sore for this ride but my heart rate shouldn’t have been as high as it was for that easy ride. Crazy how quickly it falls off.

I might add in another ride on Sunday to counteract it.

I think you can get the cardio back up to speed in short order. Still a good ride, and hey, it’s not like you just stopped doing cardio. You’ll be back in no time! :sunglasses:

Thanks Trent. I might retake my FTP test this weekend.

I was actually reading a book part of the time while doing this ride, though still got a good sweat rolling but I really wasn’t paying attention to trying to stay in my zones. I still feel like I am reaching some though. Which might not be a bad thing.

Man, I’m gonna have to go into work late to finish reading that workout. :joy: Awesome session! Great bench numbers! Looks like a legit barbell club there. Very cool!

That steak and eggs photo just might ruin my diet today… :drooling_face:

Thanks Trent! :joy:

I have been doing a lot of steak, eggs, and slices of tomato lately. At least once a week. One of my favorite dinners.

The gym is pretty cool. I will try to post a pic a week of neat stuff I either use or just stuff I see. I am still finding things in there that I have no idea what they are used for. :joy:

That’s it. Had an old head compliment my deadlift form today. He is in their coaching a lady daily, who I see wearing powerlifting competition T shirts in there. We talked for a while about lifting and my first competition. He gave some deadlift pointers on lockout as well.

Absolutely loving the way these sessions read. It’s like this is what I wish my sessions looked like but I know I’d be in a damn stretcher if I tried to do that. :joy: Awesome work on those deads and that’s awesome you’re getting some coaching pointers. Sounds like a great training environment! :sunglasses:

Thanks. I hit 225 x 6 for my 1 plus set last cycle, hoping for 230 x 6 this cycle. Would be nice to make some gains on them.
