I thought the idea of mail order brides was that they stayed in this country Confused

Only kidding. Stick to the diet Rick!!!!

Monday 7/5

This is the sort of day that, a year ago, I wouldn't even have trained. Long weekend of bad diet and not nearly enough sleep, followed by an annoying day - went around town looking for a lifting belt, everywhere not closed sold them only big enough for thin people. Bah. Off to the gym completely washed out.

Squat 20x5, 60x5, 100x5, 120x3, 140x1x3.

The first 140 was going to be a triple, but I had to put it back after the first one and rather rapidly disappear off to a place of bowel evacuation, despite having had one go at it before leaving the house. The last two times, it was all I could make myself do to get it unracked and singled. I had nothing.

On the up side, they were deep, they were upright, they were pretty, and they were pain free. Small mercies.

Good Mornings 60x5, 80x5, 90x5, 100x5.

These were actually ok.

Hey ho, at least I trained. Stretching, home.

Order a belt off irongladiators... Brent Mikesell sent mine in about two weeks, if he had the colour in stock it would probably have been within a week.

Don't go looking around town for one otherwise you are going to end up with a tacky piece of s**t. If you're going to get one get a good one.

Wednesday 9/5

Absolutely felt like s**t today. Tired, not very well, huge leak in flat above mine flooding my bathroom...

Coan bench week 11.

Bench 20x8, 60x5, 80x3, 100x1, 110x1, 120x1, 127.x1 (all paused), 135x2 PB (first reps paused), 135xf.

I put absolutely everything into the first big double, bloodshot eyes and all. Second double I lost my line a little, Joni saved me nicely.

The second and third time in my life I've benched 135 Grin. And yet today I was weak.

Close-grip Bench 120xf, 110x3, 110xf.

120 was not coming back up. The second 110 set got half-way up but the tank was completely empty.

Wide Seated Rows 77x8, stack x10x2.

Rope-handle cable hammer curls 40x10, 50x10, 60x10, 70x10. If I'm going to be ghey, do it properly Wink.

Under the circumstances, I'm delighted with that. I'm going to leave 300lbs far behind me.

it was solid double man. A max effort, and it was good to see you working hard. I think that makes or breaks a set for you (i have similar issues), how you are mentally prepared and focused on it and if the head starts going to all places it shouldn't.

bring on next weeks max single!

I am now certain that I can, on a day when I'm not f**ked, double 300lbs. Before too many more weeks have passed, I will have Happy.

Today has been better, as befits a birthday, though I was startled by a beetle in my tea. Not a great present.
