Weighed out at 183.8lbs. I'm losing weight apparently... despite eating a shit ton. I am getting stronger and I feel thinner then usual so I'll take it.

ME CG BB Military Press
bar x 8
75lbs x 5
95lbs x 3
115lbs x 2
135lbs x 1
155lbs x 1 (5lb PR!)
155lbs x 1 (tried another and failed so I push pressed it)
135lbs x 3

I switched to close grip on this and OMG what a difference. It feels so much more natural for me and my elbows automatically tuck themselves forward. Besides the fact that I hit a new PR. This was strict press not push press, btw. I definately feel that those heavy push presses helped my strict press though by acclimating my body to the weight and some hardcore tri work.


DE BB CG Bench Press
bar x 8
95lbs x 5
125lbs 7x3

Nothing to report except for on one set I farted and had a hard time finishing my set cause I was laughin too hard. hahhahahaha

Good Mornings
bar x 5
95lbs x 5
115lbs x 5
135lbs x 3
155lbs 3x5
175lbs 2x5

These felt real solid.

Supine Rows
bw - 4x9,8,7,6

Never done these before... I think thats what they are called where you pull yourself up to a bar from underneath. Different.. I found it to be more bicep work then lat or back though.

Solid PR today on press. I feel like I could be getting back on track with my pressing movements altogether now. Sweet. Very happy with this new found love of my life: close grip work. lol

Weight: 184.5lbs

ME CG BB Bench Press
-bar x 8
-135lbs x 5
-185lbs x 3
-205lbs x 2
-225lbs x 2
-235lbs x 1 (current PR)
-240lbs x 0

Well I have 240lbs if I would warm up correctly. I had the weight moving up off my chest then I arched so hard I tweaked my back and let it down. Next time I should have it.

DE CG BB M.Press
45lbs x 5
75lbs x 4
85lbs 10x3 (~60%)

Moved back to a more appropriate weight for this exercise. All 10 sets had great speed.

Pull-ups
bw x 3
bw + 25lbs 4x2
bw x 6

Solid. Felt good to get some higher intensity sets in there.

Cable Tricep Extension
70lbs x 12
80lbs x 12
90lbs x 12
100lbs x 12

Was just starting to burn out at the last rep. Good place to end off.

Well this CG work is really paying off for me it feels like. I just got a m press PR last week and I think a bench PR is in order now too. My shoulder is feeling much healthier now too.

This work out was great. Under an hour --> short and sweet.

those l pullups are fun ain't they. definitely takes some stabilizing to quit swinging

Yeah man my abs are sore this morning which is unusual for me! So thats good, must be working!
