    Had a very good push day yesterday. Was feeling pretty strong so I decided to see what I could do on Barbell flat bench. Worked my way up to 500lbs for 1 rep and it went up easy. Didn’t try to max out just wanted to test the strength. First time with 5 plates on each side even though I think I could have done that much last offseason. I probably had another 25lbs in the tank.

    2-22-21 push day 1

    1 rep of 500lbs flat bench - went up easy
    BB flat bench 3-4 sec negs 315lbs - 12, 11, 10

    DB shoulder press 110lbs - 12, 11, 9

    DB flat bench 140lbs - 8
    Backoff sets 120lbs - 9, 9

    Standing lateral raise machine 60lbs -
    14, 13, 11

    HS Decline press 110lbs each arm - 12, 11, 9

    Rear delt rows elbows flared 2 plates - 15, 14

    Pec deck 250lbs - 16, 14

    Checkins with coach yesterday. Weight is down a little sitting at 278lbs. Feeling a lot harder lately at this weight. I guess I’m growing into this weight now.

    Hey guys. We are doing a deload week this week and I won’t be logging anything. Will check in here and there until I get back at it! Have a great weekend!

    Deload is going well this week. My hunger seems to be going up which is weird since I’m cruising right now. Body is feeling more energetic already. Looking forward to getting back at it next week. It will be exactly 7 weeks from tomorrow when we start prep. Getting excited!

    Had a really good push day today. Went wide grip on all movements for chest due to a tip from an IFBB pro my height. He has a great chest and he swears by it for longer arm front delt heavy people. I can’t argue against it. My pecs were pumped and didn’t feel anything in my front delts like I normally do.

    3-26-21 push day 2

    Well had a slight setback yesterday doing legs. I tweaked my groin on the pendulum squat doing close stance of all things. It was also on a Backoff set which was lighter. Anyway on the way back up on my 9th rep I felt it and I had to rack it immediately. It’s a little tender today so will be taking it easy the next few days. Hopefully it will good to go here soon.

    Backoff set 4 plates - 9 (tweaked groin)

    Lighter weight from here on out because of groin

    Good pull day. I had to make some adjustments my elbows are flaring up again. This happened last year as well. Tendinitis in both elbows suck but I have been pushing pretty hard during this cruise to keep progressing.

    No updates this week. Taking it easy before I start prep next Saturday. It will be 16 weeks long for my warmup show then 2 weeks after it will be nationals.

    My wife is doing her first show this year. Here are her last pics at 16 weeks out. She is doing figure class.

    Had a great hamstring and glutes workout yesterday. Loving where my strength and recovery is at right now. I hope I can maintain this though most of my prep this time around. Will be managing training fatigue a lot better this around. If needed I will implement less volume if I see a big decline in training strength and intensity. Same with cardio. I will most likely move to elliptical vs treadmill as I get closer to end of prep.

    RDLs 365lbs - 11, 10, 8

    Bulgarian split squats 185lbs - 12, 11

    Standing calf raises 6 plates - 15, 15, 14, 12

    Sumo belt squats 4 plates - 15, 13

    Seated Hamstrings 190lbs - 16, 13
    Drop set 145lbs - 10

    Seated calf presses 8 plates - 20, 18
