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.
One arm pull ups weighted, what a beast! I will preach the use of Olympic rings for pull ups to anybody who will listen, they are a game changer. I’m not sure if you do inverted rows but I recommend them for extra back volume and hitting your lats and upper back from a different angle.
Not real OAP yet lol! That will come again in time. Just assisted with a foot on the ground and adding extra weight in a backpack. It’s a great lift though for the proper one arm range of motion though and its unilateral which is amazing to build symmetrical strength. You can assist with the leg that’s on the ground as needed.
I used to do ring pullups! We will get there again, too! Amazing exercise.
Not too keen on the rows though. Already have plenty on my plate and the program is geared towards my sport. Still a great lift nonetheless though for the back.
