Monday Training: Squat
Monday was a little better. Felt like crap because of sleep deprivation. I was up at 4am Friday and didn't get to sleep until around midnight that night. Saturday I was up at 7am and got zero sleep on the bus right home. We pulled in at 5am and I was in bed by 6am […]

Monday Labor Day
Today at the facility we held a annual class as we always do on major holidays. I always get a good turnout as most want to burn the calories they will consume later in the day..... Right after I had a 1-1 with a 13yr old wrestler. He only weighs 85lbs but safety bar squatted […]

After that they all hit accessory work for the upper body to compliment the session. As far as for me..........today was brutal, spent the whole night up coughing. […]

3 weeks to go. Diet numbers are pretty decent. Every day is a bit better.
Introducing Fatty McFat Fat
I was going to say I was just holding water or I was distended but ... we all know what that usually means: FAT.
8/31- Light Raw Bench
The only reason I went light today is because I’m weak as poo right now and had no other option.
Stick to the Plan or Change It?
When I sit in my high ivory tower and create the World’s Greatest Program for someone to follow it does not mean that every exercise, amount of sets, RPE assignment or variation is what they need to do today.
Deadlift training without notice
Oliver was struggling to get motivated. I told him that I would pull with him. He was already at 500.
