Yeah, but I can feel a downwards trend here. It’s that time of the month again.
As evidenced by yesterday’s work. Haven’t flat benched in a while, but that is no excuse for 120 being so tough.

A pretty average day yesterday, which I will take. Probably had more in me, but I am trying to give my body a break.

Did some jumps yesterday, and they actually didn’t suck. 46 is not exactly earth shattering, but I flew up on that bitch twice.
Pull-ups still coming along. Managing the pain okay.

Feeling good, but warmup on 160 was not feeling strong. 170 somehow felt better, so I tripled it. Good stuff.

I often reminisce about the 200kg high bar adventure, and think that would be cool again.
Then I remind myself how hard those sessions were.
And I reconsider.

Yeah, don’t. I should probably stop half of this nonsense.
Speaking of nonsense, yesterday was also kinda meh.

Also, the boy finished his first cycle of 531, so we re-tested maxes this week. 40/60/80/100, nice round numbers. He has always had difficulty sticking to anything, but he seems to like this and is surprisingly good at it.
He also told me he will be stronger than me in two years, a notion which I had to playfully crush.

Felt pretty low energy, but wasn’t a bad day. The double of 100 was too cheaty, but the dumbbell work was good….close to PR territory, and I think I didn’t need much help from the spotter to get them up.

Squats today, and I deliberately took it easy. Was going to do more volume at the end, but he boy wanted to try the leg press machine.
