Journey to the Summer

[video]https://youtu.be/IsbE33g_l1E[/video]

I had fun watching people deadlift today, excited to start my next training cycle and work on the pulls which I've largely ignored. Today just pulled a token pull so my bench would count. Enjoy the nip slip.

My squat was disappointing. I took an opener that I could get on the worse possible day. Felt light headed after. Took my second for a small 5lbs PR and failed twice. Kinda funny because squat was what I was most looking forward to this meet. Not sure if it was the peaking plan, a bad day, or I'm just a pussy butttttt.

Bench went amazing, I deviated from the plan of a big PR due to missing my 2nd attempt on a technicality. So went for a small 198 meet PR at 474lbs. I didn't have a big jump after my 2nd attempt so small PR and lots of aggression made me a happy bastard

Deadlift... Call me a bitch or call it a cop out but I saw zero benefit of pulling a max if it wasn't gonna benefit my total. The failed squat threw that out the window and having had three deadlift injuries I figured a token pull would suffice until I figure out my deadlift. Why risk another injury for no benefit ✌️
We will see what November/December brings

stone loads will be in my routine now to help strengthen my posterior chain, and hopefully fix up my deadlift.

They are some hard work, but pretty fun.

I did 5x5 with the light stone and then 3 with the 200lbs stone in this clip

Hello everyone, so my bench log is going to be quite detailed and will be a deep dive into velocity based training.

If you are into an educational read on the subject go ahead and check out

Things are getting pretty serious

Today I played mostly with deadlift setup between wider and close conventional
