ok so i decided i never had enough volume when i did close stance squats, so i think im going to continue with those in the 6-8 rep range as long as i can hit 315 by june 13th for my power lifting meet, i noticed today i couldnt get as low as i wanted with the wider stance so well see what happens, goals for the meet
315-335,265-275,450-500

let me preface this by saying wow:

pin press with bands (1/2-1 inch off the chest)

incline
135x10
185x5
205x5
225x4 +1 rep
145x15

close grip death, goes from close grip to 2 board, to 3 board all in a row i think ill change the 3 to a 4 board though its not enough of a difference, i figure this will help with my needed tricep size and strength
135x8,5,4 (thats reps per board)
185x5,4,1 to much weight haha
135x5,5,4

fatbar skull crushers

80x8,60x8,40x10,20x15 drop set

plate raise
25x20,20

then band pushdowns 100 reps and situps

the foam rolling is definitly helping the shoulder and pec, also i move my flat and decline bench grip in to middle or index finger on the ring and for incline i stop about 2 inches off the chest when my arms hit 90 degrees and thats like the point where it starts to pinch so its been hurting less but im still growing :slight_smile:

then back planks and hanging with weight to stretch out, also started doing TKE’s and it felt good on the knee
