I’m assuming you mean 80’s lol that’s awesome though man, keep it up.
And HS = hammer strength, just the type of machine. The dumbells at the high school gym only go up to 75’s, so there’s not really much I can do with those.

Haha it’s not like I’m much past them, I’m just past them enough that I don’t want to use them. The way you’re going you’ll think 75’s are useless in 2 weeks
Legs
Squats - 285x5 (+10 pounds)
That’s really all I care about for leg day. Also did some one legged -leg press, calf raises, and hamstring curls, and abs, but I’m just gonna worry about squats.
My wrist sucks. Don’t know what I did to it, but definitely something. Started to do bench today, 135 hurt, 185 hurt, 225 hurt a lot, didn’t even do a work set, just quit the workout. Still hurts a lot now though, right in the ulnar collateral ligament area.
Really, really hope it gets better quick. Quite bitter right now.
This not working out thing SUCKS. I don’t know how so many people do it all the time.
Yea man sucks big time. Might wanna get you shoulder, I mean wrist, checked out.
Haha yeah man it’s actually getting significantly better each day, so I don’t think it’s anything too bad, just sucks because I basically hurt it bench pressing (although I think I pre-hurt it at work), so getting back into anything push-wise might take some time, if I don’t want to just hurt it again.

awww sunuvabitch!
well played, sir
Squats 295 x 5 (+10 pounds)
These were a lot harder than the 285x5 last week, was leaning forward a bit the last couple reps.
Either way, happy to actually do something.
Wrist feels a bit better every day, we’ll see about chest on Monday.
Glad your back in the gym
Wrist is getting better but ‘push’ stuff like bench press/shoulder press is still not happening, so this week will be more of a ‘do whatever I can’ week. Did some back, and then some flys today.
I realized I actually have a pair of work-out gloves with built-in wrist wraps so I’ve been trying those out, they help a bit. Yesterday I couldn’t do shoulder press so I did a bunch of lateral raises, front raises, and reverse fly’s. Today I did some curls and extensions. I’m hoping to be able to do the real push things starting Monday.
so have you figured out what happened to your wrist?

I think I ‘pre-injured’ it at work the friday before moving some gates, I just carried them weird. Then Monday it was a little sore but really didn’t feel ‘hurt’ much at all, so I tried benching and that really did it. As for what is actually damaged, I’m pretty sure it’s the ulnar collateral ligament, because that’s where it hurts, right under my pisiform, and a little medially to that.
Getting better though!
Back in the game! Wore gloves with built in wrist wraps, and most things still hurt a bit, but not too bad.
Chest/tri
Bench - 135x15, 185x6, 225x2, 245x9 (-1 rep but I’ll take it)
Incline HS - 180x10, 270x5, 360x2 (+40 pounds, -7 reps lol too heavy)
DB Fly’s - 25x8, 45x12
Reverse Grip Bench press (took gloves off for this because I felt like I was going to drop the weight on myself with them on) - 135x10, 185x5, 225x5 (-3 reps, sucks)
Extensions - 70x8, 100x7 (+10 pounds, -5 reps)
Just happy to be back at it.
Glad to see yo going heavy with that wrist
The gloves helping much?
