Still a bit beat down, but it felt good to be back in the gym moving heavier weights again. Axle clean is a bit sloppy, and my press groove isn’t quite where it needs to be, but the weight is moving. Once I get dialed in, it will get nasty. Here’s what went down:
Warmup
Med Ball Slams 12 lb x8
Axle Clean and Press
115×4
155×3
205×2
245×2
245×2
245×2
245×1 <– stupid triceps
Axle Z-Press
85×5
105×5
125×5
145×5
Chins
BWx4x8
Band Pushdowns
Avg x5x20
Band Face Pulls
Avg x20, 15, 15
DONE.
Messed around with various grips on the bands this date. Trying to smash my triceps from every angle. And seeing as how I’m still sore on Saturday, Goal Accomplished. Anyways, I’m looking forward to kicking off this next round of training to bring the best me to the table in Memphis this September.
Also got some super neat stuff in the pipeline as well, and I’ll make sure to discuss that as it pans out. Until then, I’m going to keep on that grind. Back Tuesday for more fun.
