Cycle 2 Wave 3 (1’s)
Bench Press
barx20
135x5
185x5
210x5 paused
220x3 paused
235x5
Close Grip Bench Press (finger width off the smooth)
190 8x3 sets
1 Arm Flat Tate Presses (right only)
35 10x3
Chest Supported DB row
105’s 8x4 sets
No Bench PR today, system still recovering from DL’s on Sunday. Had I waited another day I might have done better, but since I only needed 1 rep to be successful today I’ll count it as good.
CGBP is better. First set still hurts the shoulder but it settles in after that. Warm up for these, maybe?
I think that that CSDBR is a PR. I like how they nail the middle of my upper back. Helps with deadlifts a lot.
The view numbers on the farting squat video keep going up. I suspect that is because it does contain a few reps with a little jet propulsion in them. Maybe it’ll go viral and then someone on late night t.v. will want to interview me. I can them parlay that into a some commercials and ultimately a movie career.
I bet you all wish you were me.
skid-
Nice work on the bench. Looking strong! I can sympathize with not feeling recovered.
I always wish I was you…
Nice work on the bp, when did I miss the farting squats?

An interesting use of one of these things. One can imagine the train wrecks that the practices must have been.
there are some great ball exercise bloopers-
and the squats where classy.

You haven’t been by the gym I work out at …
This thread is full of WIN.
Meanwhile, back on youtube, I think I’ve found the common thread of the most popular videos I’ve posted. They are the ones where I stick my ass out in profile. Deads, good mornings and squats.
Viewership is mostly female now (55%) and I’m pretty sure it’s a women’s sextegenarian social club somewhere in the south of France.
I’m lookin’ fer a sugar mama - Steely! Let me borrow your assless chaps! I gotta go make my profile public so they can call me for that flight to France.

I do remember reading that Rico Suave had the same demographic swooning over him.
Come to think of it, I’ve never seen the two of you train in the same gym at the same time…

I actually had a fan club like that for a while, but none of them had any money left. It was kind of sweet to have women in their 70s interested in me, made my wife laugh. Now if it had been women in their 30s she wouldn’t have thought it was so funny 
Taking an extra day to rest. Feeling tight and creaky…

Cycle 2 wave 3 - Squats
Barx10
135x5
225x3
265x3
300x5
320x3
335x3
Box squats (17" box)
335xglued my ass to the box
16" box squats
225 8x5sets
Hanging leg lifts
10 lbs 8x2 sets
10lbs x 1 groin pull
All done!
Squats were deep, kept elbows forward and touched to the thighs. Strong on all reps. I could’ve gotten another 1 or 2 on 335, but didn’t push it. I can say anything I want because there’s no video. In fact - it was 405x5 and I was smoking a cigarette while I did it. Considering 330x2 was really hard last Wave 3 on squats, this is a vast improvement. Better form and stronger in the hole.
High box squat I got stuck on the box. Always happens after 2 straight weeks of supramax partials which these count as. I should learn. Punted and did a lot of volume at a lower weight so I could get some time at the bottom. Settled on the box, paused and came back out of the hole with no rocking. They were surprisingly tough on reps 6 through 8.
Something in my left groin has not been happy the last couple of weeks and it finally said enough was enough today. Doesn’t feel like anything is sticking out down there that ought not to be, so I’m pretty sure it’s a pull. It’s a stretchy hurt as my left leg is rotated out from the trunk.
No PR’s, but a good solid session!
