I don't think I got what it takes for nationals yet!

But out of curiosity ... when is it? You planning on going?

Grip Work
Trainer 3x8
CoC #1 - 3x5
CoC #1.5 - 2x3
Coc #2 - 3 attempts


Thoughts

Finally got my new grippers! Woo! I wasn't supposed to do grip work today ... I just did DLs the day before so it wasn't an optimal day but oh well. I was too excited to wait!

I think maybe on a fresh day I could close the #2. I was damn close.

How come bench only? Resting some injuries?

Oh boy. I guess that's what intense weight training can do to a guy over time. Get healthy my friend.

We had to work out late on Thursday and couldn't make it work on Friday so we hit out big lifts and GTFO! It was a pretty aweomse day because I nailed both the numbers I was shooting for.

Monday February 14th, 2011

BW: 200.0lb !


Bench
bar x 10
95lb x 5
115lb x 5
135lb x 3

175lb x 5
195lb x 3
220lb x 1 (+5)

155lb,165lb,175lb,175lb - 4x10

I was going for 9 reps today for a PR... it just felt awkward and heavy as fuck. I probably could have gotten 7 reps but it just felt so shitty that I racked it. I regret racking it now.


Chin Ups
bw x 8,6.5,4


Thoughts

Well it's pretty obvious that I had a shitty day. I hope it's just a one off thing...

And now I remember why I didn't get anywhere in the gym when I partied all the time on the weekend. Road trips home and catching up with old buddies is not conducive to lifting. Arg.

Wow, an awesome pull. However, I was then far too gassed to do a 5x10. Ah well, can't win em all.

Superset with...

Hanging Leg Raises

Thoughts

I redeemed my self from my bench fiasco so that is very good. I'm still upset about that but not much to do about it now!
