Strength Training

Squats: 45x5, 135x5, 205x3, 225x1, 245x1, 290x5, 290x5, 290x5.
Press: 45x5, 85x5, 105x3, 115x1, 135x1, 150x3, 150x3, 150x3, 150x2, 150x2, 150x2.
Deadlifts: 135x5, 225x3, 275x1, 295x1, 325x5.

Last set of squats was the most troublesome. I don't even know what to do with my press anymore. Deadlifts had trouble staying on my shins, but I managed to get all 5, which I wasn't sure about.

6/15/2021

So, just a side note here. I took my youngest son to the gym to do his workout, and just messing around, I was able to do one neutral grip chin up, and almost a second! I'm going to be messing with this more often. Felt good to be able to do a chin up. I have never done one before!

Strength Training

Squats: 45x5, 135x5, 205x3, 225x1, 250x5, 250x5, 250x5.
Press: 45x5, 85x3, 115x1, 136.5x5, 136.5x5, 136.5x5.
Chin-ups (neutral grip): 2 and a partial, 2 partials.
Assisted Chins: 105x10, 105x10, 105x10, 105x10.

Light squat and press day. I tried some neutral grip chins, and got a few! I reached 10 reps on each set of assisted chins, and will add weight for next time.

Strength Training

Squats: 45x5, 135x5, 205x3, 225x1, 245x1, 295x5, 295x5, 295x5.
Press: 45x5, 85x5, 115x2, 135x1, 150x3, 150x3, 150x3, 150x3, 150x3.
Deadlifts: 140x5, 225x3, 275x1, 295x1, 330x5.
Neutral Grip Chins: 2, 2, 1, 1. Bodyweight 245 lbs.

Second set of squats seemed like something different went wrong on each rep. Third set was good, until rep 5. Press was good, got all sets of 3, finally. Deadlifts was really heavy. Finished with some chin up reps, which I'm really excited about, even though I can't do very many.

Last time was tough so I didn't increase the weight.

Getting much better! Its a bit lopsided as after I messed up my left elbow a few years ago I can't quite lock out on that side. But generally much stronger.

That's great Brian! I've always wanted to do chin ups but am a bit chunky for that!

That was always my problem, too, Danielle. I'm weighing 245 lbs now, and it's the lightest I've been in some time. I'm only getting a few at a time, though.

I can't recommend enough to get some incremental plates. I bought a set some time ago, and it was a great investment, especially for pressing, and for training my kids.

Strength Training

Squats: 45x5, 135x5, 205x3, 225x1, 245x1, 300x5, 300x5, 300x5.
Press: 45x5, 85x5, 115x2, 135x1, 151.5x3, 151.5x3, 151.5x3, 151.5x2, 151.5x2, 151.5x2.
Deadlifts: 135x5, 225x3, 275x1, 295x1, 335x5.
Neutral-grip Chins: 2, 2, 2, 2.

Squat sets felt surprisingly good, until the last set, which just seems to be how the last set goes. Press dropped to sets of 2. Deadlift might just be a PR.

6/23/2021

Strength Training

Squats: 45x5, 135x5, 205x3, 225x1, 255x5, 255x5, 255x5.
Press: 45x5, 85x5, 115x1, 138x5, 138x5, 138x5.
Neutral-grip Chins: 2, 2, 2.
Assisted Chin-ups: 100x9, 100x7, 100x6, 100x6.

I love Wednesday light day. It's a nice break between the two heavy workouts.

Firearms Training: 3 hours of long gun training, rifle and shotgun. We trained clearing malfunctions and working to hit different targets, and also transitioning to handgun.

6/25/2021

Strength Training

Squats: 45x5, 135x5, 205x3, 225x1, 260x1, 305x5, 305x5, 305x5.
Press: 45x5, 85x3, 115x1, 135x1, 151.5x2, 151.5x2, 151.5x1, 151.5x3, 151.5x2, 151.5x2, 151.5x2, 151.5x1.
Deadlifts: 135x5, 225x3, 275x1, 295x1, 315x1, 340x5.

Squats went well, press sucked, and deadlifts almost killed me. I laid on the floor for a few minutes after the deadlift set. I don't know what happened with the press.

Strength Training

Squats: 45x5, 135x5, 205x3, 225x1, 260x1, 310x5, 310x5, 310x5.
Press: 45x5, 85x5, 115x1, 135x1, 151.5x3, 151.5x3, 151.5x3, 151.5x3, 151.5x3.
Deadlifts: 135x5, 225x3, 275x1, 315x1, 345x1, 345x2.
Neutral-grip Chins: 2, 2, 2, 2, 2.

It was a mixed bag today. Squats going well, and I finally hit sets of 3 on my presses at this weight. Deadlifts, however, were bad. The first rep was a grind, and the second was stapled to the floor. I rested a bit, and then decided to really bear down and pull again, and it was a slow grind, and I should have stopped there, but I pushed another rep. Now, I've got really bad pain at the bottom of my back to right of my spine. Hurts, hurts, hurts.
