What’s up comrades, how has your week gone? Any gripes? Any boasting? Anything you wish to share?
Yes, I am aware I am a day early… but considered the times I was late I figured it was a fair trade off.
Also I wanted to show off my new, in-process, weight plates.
8x 10lbs
2x 15lbs, 30lbs, and 35lbs
Final touch ups will be done with epoxy and BBs to get the final weights more exact but they need to cure for a few weeks to a month before I go doing that.
Not the best week in terms of working out. My sleep quality hasn’t been the best in recent days and it has affected my workouts. Also within the past couple of weeks my lower back has had a nagging pain. Nevertheless I managed to hit some PRs this week.
-Barbell Overhead Press 145x7
-Deadlift with a Hex Bar 340x10 (that was an AMRAP set)
-I was doing weighted dips but I have stalled on them so I switched to the Barbell bench press to switch it up and hit 205x7
-Barbell Front Squat 285x8
I have been adding some more conditioning work. Also @DankZedong talk about running reminded me that I had been slacking on it so I ran this week for the first time in a couple of months and it went better than expected. Stay active comrades.
