Got in an hour of BJJ with a buddy down at the gym. Just drilling some back-takes and then some rolling. Went pretty well considering I got rather drunk last night.

Cheer practice later on, went well. We're still doing run-throughs and have like 3 practices until competition. I feel pretty fresh for the gym tomorrow after work.

Good session. I got like no sleep last night (I think 3 hours) so I was worried about today. But I hit all my numbers, even though it was a grind.

Squat (light)
bar x2 x5
165 x5
205 x5
245 x5
245 x5

Bench
bar x2 x5
120 x5
150 x5
180 x5
210 x5
240 x3*
180 x8

Deadlift
135 x5
200 x5
240 x5
280 x5
320 x5*

Skipped my BORs for today, so I'll double up Wednesday maybe.

I'm expecting to hit 240x5 for bench rather easily on Wednesday, so after I might try something silly like 255 or 260 for a (very fatigued) 1 RM.

Today went well. I was really sore and just generally fatigued, but I hit my numbers, including 2 PRs.

Squat
bar x2 x5
165 x5
205 x5
245 x5
285 x5
325 x3*

Bench
bar x2 x5
120 x5
150 x5
180 x5
210 x5
240 x5*

BOR
130 x3 x5

Bench felt good. I think I need a wider grip, because my elbows go below my wrists at the bottom. This is the first time I've watched myself do bench though.

Today was ok. I had a rough week at the office. Hit squats okay, but I was really losing my back tightness and arch in the hole. Really need to address this as the weight gets heavier. Last one was a grinder.

Squat
bar x2 x5
165 x5
205 x5
245 x5
285 x5
325 x5*

SOHP
bar x2 x5
120 x5
140 x5
160 x5
180 x2 (I'm counting 2, since I had to push-press 3)
135 x5

Weighted Chins
BW + 40, 7, 6, 4

Today went well. Had to leave early for a meeting, so this is the 2nd week in a row I've skipped my heavy row/chin on Monday. PRs for bench and DL.

Squat (light)
bar x2 x5
165 x5
210 x5
245 x5
250 x5

Bench
bar x2 x5
125 x5
155 x5
185 x5
215 x5
245 x3*
185 x8

DL
bar x5
135 x3
205 x5
250 x5
290 x5
330 x5*

I've got to warm up DL more. The 2nd set felt worse than the 4th.

Doing 2xBW squat for reps is impressive. And add to that the PRs you've done lately, very good work!

I remember you mentioned in the main forum that you're planning on competing. From the looks of it, looks like you'll have a good first meet. Any update?

Thanks man! I keep putting on weight, so I don't know when 2.1x bw is gonna come.

Right now I'm aiming to do 2 meets this year. I want to keep milking this weekly progression and probably not compete until I stall once or twice. I think June/July is a good time and hopefully I can hit my goal of 1000lbs total.

I feel like I would have already picked one if it wasn't for the federation politics! I really have no idea which to choose and I think there's 3-4 in Ontario.

Do the open in Ottawa in july! Great meet! I didn't compete but I watched... Go to the OPA website for details! The guys name is Sandro, really nice fella!

If you go it will motivate me to know there are others there! Then come to Brockville in August for my push/pull! LOL

Today was weird. We had a volleyball tournament for work, and I tried to fit my workout in beforehand. Squat was awesome, and I smoked 330x3 for a new PR, but I missed my bench for the first time in like 2 months. I think the bench was due to being rushed, and not recoverying properly from Monday's workout.

Squat
bar x2 x5
170 x5
205 x5
250 x5
290 x5
330 x3*

Bench
bar x2 x5
125 x5
155 x5
185 x5
215 x5
245 x1, F

Weighted pull-ups
bw +35, 6
b2 +30, 5

I'll be at the Brockville one for sure. Not sure about Ottawa in July. I looked up last year's results, and it looks like it had a pretty good turnout (I'm mainly concerned about my gf's weightclass, 52kg). We'd like to have at least a couple girls in her class at our first meet. Only thing is I was thinking about doing a meet closer to home (Toronto) just so we can visit at the same time. I'll think about it though!
