Monday wasn't happening acroos the board. My groin was bothering me so after 2 sets of warm-up squats I decided not to hurt myself. On to Bench. No go - shoulder. It happened on Tuesday. Tuesday

  • SSB Box Squat: 220/240/260/280x3
  • Pull-ups: 5x5
  • Weighted Pull-ups (25lbs): 34 in 10 minutes
Wednesday
  • Bench: 75/95/105/125x5/135x3/145x3
  • Band Row: 100 reps
  • BBB: 5x10@105
  • Low Band Face Pulls: 50
I did some neck and curls at the end of each workout. Tomorrow I have Football lift at 9 and 10am and practice at 1:30. I'll take a nice, long walk tomorrow. Once I warm them up for practice I'll decide if I'm going to get a Deadlift workout in. Somehow (I'm not surprised), I got my cycle screwed up. For the last 4-5 weeks my new week has been starting on Wednesday instead of Monday. Sounds dumb, but it screws me up. I didn't follow a plan for Bench today. I just put some weight on and if it felt good I went up. Stopped at 145 because it felt great. If I Deadlift tomorrow I'll do something similar. Just work up to something that feels good. Next week I'll start my 3rd cycle and keep rolling.
