For quite some time now I've not trained in a group. There have been numerous factors that have contributed to this and I've missed out on the benefits of training in a group. The comradery, the pace, the pushing one another and the drive to just be a little better. That is changing and I'm part of a group now and loving it.
SS Yoke bar box squats - 15" box - raw
worked up to 520 for 10 sets of 2 reps
block pulls - conventional stance - bar set just below the knee
worked up to 765 for a single (wrist straps were used on the last set)
Sunday
friend and teammate Bryan Doberdruk was out to train today. I always enjoy training with Bryan and we haven't got to train together as much as we used too but today was good.
bench - used 3 board shoulder saver pad
worked up to 365 raw
put on Metal Ace bench shirt
405 for a double
495 for 3 sets of 2 reps
JM press with SS Yoke bar
160 for 4 sets of 12 reps
chest supported barbell rows
145 for 5 sets of 8 reps
standing military press with angle bar
145 for 5 sets of 8 reps
My bench work went surprisingly well today and overall it was a good training weekend.
