Foam Rolling

  • 10 minutes

High Bar Squat

  • 45lbs: 20
  • 140lbs: 10
  • 230lbs: 5
  • 320lbs: 3
  • 410bs: 2
  • 460lbs: X,2,1
    • Missed on the 1st attempt at 460lbs. Weird. Probably leaned forward too much.
    • Missed on 2nd rep at 460lbs.

Reverse Grip Bench Press (Paused)

Getting the hang of the reverse grip bench press. Less pain in my forearms at >300lbs compared to a regular bench press. I like it!

  • 45lbs: 10
  • 140lbs: 5
  • 190lbs: 3
  • 230lbs: 2
  • 300lbs: 1
    • Felt easy. Let's try 3PLATE
  • 320lbs: 1
    • Not bad. Challenging, but the bar seemed to move up quickly.
  • 330lbs: 1
    • Still feels challenging-but-not-too-bad. Add another 10lbs.
    • I think this is a paused bench press PR.
  • 340lbs: MISSED
  • 280lbs: 4

Rack Pulls

About 6 1/4" off the ground. (at the #3 hole in my power rack and standing on a 3/4" piece of wood).

  • 320lbs: 3

Ever since I started taking strength training seriously, I was bitten by the Iron Bug. Then it burrowed under my skin and laid eggs in my heart. Now those eggs are hatching and I... the feeling is indescribable.
