That's a shitty bench for me. I should be able to hit that like 6 times at least. I also don't look that different. I have a couple more pounds of muscle, but nothing astounding. I need to work on the mass side of things a bit more.

Hah, dunce hat. I like that. fufu Donovan is awesome. One of my favorite performers of all time. His voice is still amazing. Elliptical Level 7 @ 110-120 x 1min Level 10 @ 110-120 x 1min 8 Rounds: Level 13 @ 110-120 x 1min Level 13 @ 170-180 x 30sec Level 10 @ 110-120 x 1min Level 7 @ 110-120 x 1min That's all. I skipped the solid state again because I was running a bit behind. I opted to hit a few stretches, just my tightest spots, as opposed to another 5-10 minutes of solid state. Got my heart rate up pretty good there though.

You must've shot up quite a bit in my one year hiatus, I don't remember you being able to bench such an outstanding number.
Awesome progress. |

Hang Power Clean RI120 (Jerk on last rep) 95x3 135x3 155x2 Deadlift RI180 (Bunch of warmups) 405x2 Walking Lunge RI90 60sx4x8 Definitely weaker still for this one. Deadlifts should've had another rep. Also, I was going to go for another set but it wasn't happening. Lunges still have my glutes sore. Unloading this upcoming week to let some fatigue dissipate.

A1 DB Bench Press RI60
80sx7x8, 7 A2 Seated Row RI60 195x8x8 That's all. I wanted it short and sweet. I actually felt fairly motivated today for having gone out drinking last night and doing this off 3 hours of sleep after training a few clients. I kind of liked this 8x8 thing. I really think I need to start doing fewer exercises and more sets of them. It just seems to make more sense in terms of time and motivation during the workout.

Those 2 sets and 2 reps per set would make a big difference. I would have to drop the intensity considerably and end up doing about 50% more volume, heh.

I have lots of practical issues with HIT, though I'm glad I've tried it, and as I said, may give it another go. A1 Squat RI60 225x3x3 A2 Dips RI60 BWx3x10 B1 Hypers RI60 (2sec iso at top) BWx3x12 B2 NG Chinups RI60 BWx3x8 Unloading this week. I did an easy sets of squats to start, but trying to keep some semblance of intensity in there. I calculated 80% of my 1RM including my bodyweight and did 3x3 with that. All other stuff was bodyweight. Will do the same thing on Friday with a bench or something in there for a "light" strength movement.

Treadmill
3.0MPH@12% x 1.5min 3.5MPH@12% x 1.5min 2 Rounds: 4.0MPH@12% x 4min 5.5MPH@12% x 1min Elliptical 2 Rounds: Lv12@110-120 x 4min Lv12@160-170 x 1min Lv10@110-120 x 1min Lv8@110-120 x 1min That's all. Some aerobic intervals. I probably could've handled a bit more during the higher intensity bursts, but that was fine. Heart rate maxed out around 85% or so, which isn't too crazy. I'm already starting to feel refreshed after a couple days of solid sleep and light workouts. Come Monday I will be ready to lift some really heavy shit, hehe.

Thanks. I appreciate the positive comments.
A Good Morning RI Full Recovery 45x5 95x3 135x3 165x3 195x3 225x3 255x1 285x1 305x1 315xFail, 1 Note: The first failure was a fluke. I got kind of distracted by something in the gym, lost the tightness in my upper back, and the bar rolled forward a little bit and pinned me. Next rep I got myself in better focus and nailed it without an issue. I had another 5-10 pounds in me, but I decided to take it somewhat easy here because I hadn't done a good morning in a little bit. B RDL RI 90sec 265x3 355x4x5 C1 1-Leg Squat RI 90sec +25x3x6 C2 Hanging Knee Raise RI 90sec BWx3x12 Note: Used a slow and controlled motion for the hanging knee raises, though I will make this harder in some form or fashion next week. Okay, so I didn't skimp last week, but I didn't post my workout largely because they were lame unloading workouts. Today was pretty good though. Doing some Westside action and going to see how it goes. I've always had good success with this template in the past. I should stick to it more often, though it's fun to try new things sometimes.

Aw shucks. You guys are so sweet. Free sex for both of you. Everyone else still pays the standard $5 fee.
4 Rounds Sled Drag@135 x 2 Round Trips Sled Reel@90 x 1 Round Trip Jump Rope x 100 Blast Strap Push-up x 10 Treadmill 4.0mph@12% x 5min Total Time - 24:01 Okay, again I'm going to try and increase the density and beat this time. Once that starts getting too hard, then I will up the workload a little bit. My plan, this time, is to actually stay with the same workout for more than 2 sessions, haha.

$5 well spent methinks!
And the fact that you "take it easy" with 315lb Good Mornings fills my heart with wonder. Nice one

Okay fine, free sex for you too.
A Incline Bench Press RI Full Recovery 45x5 95x3 135x3 155x3 175x1 195x1 215x1 225x1 235xFail 215x1 Note: Failure occured several inches off my chest; triceps/lockout are probably the culprit. I think with a little more speed I could've busted through that plateau. I seriously think I will hit this next week. I wasn't that far off. 225 wasn't exactly easy, but it went up pretty damned quickly. B NG DB Bench Press RI90 65sx4 90sx4 85sx3x4 C Bent Row RI90 135x5 205x3x8 D Chinups RI90 +50x3x5 E L Lateral Raise + External Rotation RI60 20sx2x10 Not bad overall. I felt pretty good after finishing this. I know that usually heavier stuff goes first, but I prioritized the horizontal pulling because I think it will have better carryover to the bench, at least according to a few Westsiders. Oh, and I went to a fun BBQ today. Mmmm, meat. Definitely got my fair share of calories in today. Oh, and my whole damned backside is still sore: glutes, hammes, and traps/rhomboids. Good times.

Thanks. I've always been pretty good at those. I could do a little more if I cheated like most people, but I try to stay pretty rigid, heh. DB What is that all about? That's what July 4th is there for! Haha. 4 Rounds Sled Drag@135 x 2 Round Trips Sled Reel@90 x 1 Round Trip Jump Rope x 100 Blast Strap Push-up x 10 Treadmill 4.0mph@12% x 5min Total Time - 22:47 Beat my previous time by 1:14. That's a huge difference. I set the bar high. Next Tuesday when I hit this workout I'm going to have to bust my ass big time. My rest was already pretty short, so I will eventually have to make up for it by dragging that fucking sled around faster, haha. Still sore in the traps/rhomboids, but legs are back to normal. Just in time for DE squat/deadlift day tomorrow, hehe. Sleepy time now!

A Box Squat RI45+ 45x5 95x2 135x10x2 B 1-Leg Hyperextension RI90 (1sec iso @ top) BWx3x10 C Pullthrough RI60 (1sec iso @ top) #15x4x12 D1 Prone DB Row RI60 75sx4x10 D2 SB Pikeup RI60 BWx4x12 Nothing too killer today. The dynamic stuff felt quick. I was using 60% of my 1RM including my bodyweight here. As I said earlier, I decided that with squatting I was going to start including ~75% of my bodyweight (I read that figure somewhere) because it seems to make more sense. I need to jack the weight up on the 1-leg hypers. I felt them, and they were mildly challenging, but I need to make it a bit harder. I'm going to try and rig up something where I can use bands in addition to the cable stack on the pullthroughs, because that was the entire stack. I threw in a little extra upper back work here because I figure I can never have enough of that. My back seems to respond very well to a high volume and frequency. Today, Saturday, was my off day. Did plenty of walking at the restaurant though.

A Bench Press DE
45x5 95x3 135x8x3 B CG Incline Press RI90 115x5 155x8 140x8 135x8,6,6 C Seated Row - CG Handle RI90 #14x10,10,8,8 D1 Tate Press RI60 30sx12 35sx2x12 D2 Face Pull RI60 (1sec iso) #8x2x12 #9x12 Decent workout. CG inclines are always so fucking weak. Man, today was really poor. I was going for 5 sets of 8 and completely overestimated the weight. I should've started with 135-140, but that's okay. Nothing to mention really beside that.

A Sumo Good Morning ME
45x5 95x3 135x3 165x3 195x3 225x3 255x1 285x1 315x1 325x1 335x1 B RDL RI90 270x3 360x4x5 C1 1-Leg Squat RI90 +35x3x6 C2 Hanging Knee Raise RI90 BWx14 +10x2x10 Excellent workout today. Pretty sure the good morning was a PR (By the way, last week was sumo too if I didn't say that). 315 felt easy compared to last time; pretty noticeable improvement in my comfort level at that weight. RDLs were hard as shit, but I pulled it off. I can go up some more on the 1-leg squats I'm pretty sure. I'll try the 45 plate next time.

Incline bb press is an odd thing. For me, it is something I have to train specifically for to get better at, even if I train flat bench and incline DB bench.

fufu
Yeah, I find the incline press is similar for me. I see some general carryover, but not as much as one might thing. I appreciate the well-wishing too. Triple Threat You just take a wider stance. Same deal as deadlifting with a sumo stance. 4 Rounds Sled Drag@135 x 2 Round Trips Sled Reel@90 x 1 Round Trip Jump Rope x 100 Blast Strap Push-up x 10 Treadmill 4.0mph@12% x 5min Total Time - 22:31 I shaved off 16 seconds from the previous time I did this workout. They are getting harder to cut back. Probably after 4 weeks or so I will change around the exercises a bit, or possibly just add a 5th round and then start trying to increase density once again.
