BW: 202.0lb

Incline Bench
bar x 8
115lb x 5
145lb x 5
175lb x 3
205lb - 5x5


Dips
bw x 8
bw + 25lb x 5
bw + 35lb x 5
bw + 45lb - 2x5
bw + 35lb x 8


Thoughts

Looks like I missed recording my last incline bench session but I did do 200lb last week. So this week I did 205lb .. and it was heavy as hell. I have my doubts about 210.

Dips went pretty well today though. I don't think I've gone +45lb in quite some time.

My goal of 200-205lb by xmas time has been achieved (quite early). So maybe I'll even hit sub 200lb. We shall see.

Cleans were all kinds of horrible today. I think if you really wanted to do well at cleans you would probably have to train 3x a week to really get the form down and keep it well practiced.

We are gravitating towards a more bodybuilding type routine. We're all pretty burned out with the hardcore strength program and feel like we could use a different direction for a while. We'll come back to the 5/3/1 at some point.

Military Pres
bar x 10
65lb x 10
85lb x 5

95lb x 10
115lb x 10
125lb x 10

Focused on controlled (not super slow but definitely explosive) eccentric and concentric. Used a slightly wider grip than I usually do for hopefully a bit more delt activation.


Hammer Strength Seated Row
1 plate x 10
2 plates x 10
2 +25s x 10
2 plates x 10

Controlled concentric with a noticeably slower eccentric. Slight squeeze at the top if possible.


Standing BB Curl
45lb - 4x10

Thoughts

Back under 200lb ... wow it's been a while. Almost 2 years actually.

Cleans went pretty sh!tty again today. Could have been my 3-4hr sleep last night. Arg.

Also, probably a good idea to do back extensions after good mornings.
