Through victory, my chains are broken.

Ironically, I can't delete the above comment...even though I police these on GenFit all of the time.

I swear, these are going to be the death of me.

As much as I'm sucking at keeping up with my blog, my journal here, life, etc.  I thought that I'd throw out some thoughts for those of you that are pushing every day to be better than you were the day before.

My hombre Paul Carter just posted on his blog something that if 1/2 of us would really apply, it would help out tons.  Read it here.  (Caution, Paul uses language in an abrasive manner, so don't read if you're going to get all butt-hurt about it.)

You have to understand that those of us who do train seriously get very upset when someone comes along and starts to go on and on about what someone else does.  If you go back a few pages in my log, there was a guy who pointed out that I shouldn't be doing what I've been doing because I'd get progress doing something else.  That's a cool story, but since then, I've put #25 on my total.  That's not much, but it raises my raw numbers up to #1235.  For a guy at #195...this isn't bad.  I'm going to do what I'm going to do, and my progress is based on what I feel is best for me.  I don't care what a random comment from an anon-guy on a website says.  I am in this for the long haul.  What you do doesn't really make me any difference.  It's all about what I can do.

My New Dietician


Bench Press
#55x10
#125x5
#145x5
#165x5, 5, 4 Rest/Pause

OHP
#70x5
#80x5
#90x5, 4, 3 Rest/Pause

CGBP
#95x10, #105x10, 6, 4 Rest Pause

Deadlift #225x5, #265x5, #315x10

Pull-Ups #25x10, 10, 10

Rest/Pause takes a good deal of mental effort.  I'm not saying that it doesn't work, as it does seem to be pushing me into new territory of suffering.  The hardest part is the warm-up sets.  I know what's coming, and I just start to dread it.  I know that being a "lifer" is one of those things that sometimes requires knowing that regardless of what kind of results I end up with from this little run...I can't do this forever.

Wow, I have been really busy lately.  I don't even feel like typing up what I'm doing anymore.

On that note, I've gone back to just regular old 5/3/1 BBB.  I hit my bodyweight for 4 reps on bench this morning.  I could do so much better, but I've lost my spotters to their own training for the summer, so I am not risking it.

The old composition notebook is still getting the details, and that's the only one that I truly serve.  Just know, I'm still lifting. ;)
