-First set felt crazy fast and easy
Rowing Machine
ramped up in 3’s to 210, then went to 140 and did 6. about 10 seconds of rest between each ramped set
define “ramped up”
Increasing 10lbs a set, from 30lbs to 210lbs, 3 reps every set, 10 seconds in between. Thats exactly what i did
210 on low bar cable row? that’s crazy, i probably can’t budge that thing. Fuck… i need to see this.
Nooo, on a rowing machine. I’ll show you next sunday?

I understand it’s pretty normal for your squat to build itself, but the other lifts might need some more assistance work.
I don’t know enough about the texas method to know where you would fit the assistance work in, but 70sbig has an ebook on the texas method that I hear good things about. If you have the cash you might want to pick that up.
Also, you’re trying to set a DL 1RM each intensity day right? Maybe you should set a 5RM plus a few backoff sets or something? I don’t know, I just think you’re not giving your body much stimulus to adapt to heavy deadlfits.
Mm… Im not really sure man, I wanna switch to 5/3/1, but not untill i’m done progressing my squat, cuz i think texas method can take me to a 405 squat by july.
good man for sticking with it. Good luck.
Thank you, ill need it!

Why did you warm up with CGBP then do Bench? And why didn’t you max out with 185?
Cute deadlift.
LOL damn ego
And i decide to bench last second, i was originally gunna cgbp
And shutup, you have a VERY cute squat, and a cute bench and press
My bench is not cute. Don’t take advantage of the fact i’m just getting back to press. Squat was an accident.
Now you’re making excuses LOL
