Get some Tom!

Back Squats 5x5 (working back toward my previous stall)
Flat bench 5x5
Rower 2k Sprint
1x5 negative Pull-ups

Spent another half hour stretching, beginning of this thread there was talk of foam rollers. Anyone using one still? Pre/post or whenever? I have a hard time justifying 50$ foam wrapped pvc pipe though, that's money I could spend on monster bands.

I may need a recovery day soon, Chris. :-)

Did super short rests today....Bent over rows, T-bar rows, Pulldowns and pullups. Not very strong again, but got a good workout. Hoping the strength comes again within a week or so.

Good stuff Chris, Huy & Tom!

Back squats & shoulders today followed by a quick turn on the elliptical.

Today was Day108 of SED and i'm thinking of backing it down to 4 days a week. I've reached a plateau and i think it's down to an overworked CNS, between squatting every day and DL'ing 4x/wk, benching 3x/wk and shoulder/back work plus the occasional cardio session. I'm still seeing PRs in my DLs and bench but on the whole i'm thinking that I might be able to make steadier progress across the board if i back my squats and deads down to 4x/wk and 2x/wk respectively. Thoughts?

I don't see how you could NOT be overworked at 108 days, Charlie, but I was here to encourage, and you my friend kicked some butt. I do think dialing it down would be wise though.

Shoulders today, they weren't strong but I did get in the groove nicely, and kept rest extra short again. Added some traps and tris in for good measure.

That's a long time charlie, no shame in your body needing to recover some.

Third day in a row squating, may try it and see how far I run with it.

Paused Back squats 5x5 (low weight)
Bench press 3x30 (narrow/mid/wide)
Barbell shrugs 2x20

Right.... I have no illusions of outdoing our resident Squat King :-)

I'll see how whacked out I am at a week straight

Nice sets Huy!
[Reply]

Will you give me a Conde 109 if I skwaat for 109 days straight? :-)
[Reply]

I think I'll go ahead and go through Friday so it can be a nice, round 110 days. This was always a mental challenge for me and I feel like I've gotten a lot out of it mentally and it's time to move on and let my CNS recover so that I can lift heavier and have less worry about injury. :-)
[Reply]

Don't have any, but I'll give you a Conde 54 if you squat 54 straight days.

You are a machine, Charlie!

Good luck with the SED, Chris!
[Reply]

Damn you Tom, I only can train 3 times a week!
[Reply]

ill give you a 1492 if you squat 1492 straight days.
[Reply]

Get it Chris!!! #mynewhero

Day109 - Front squats (triples up to single failure at 275 :/ )

DL's - some lighter work just to stretch my back out a bit - 135x10 (pause) / 225x10 (pause) / 315x5 (pause)

Bench - 3x10 @ 135 (pause) for a little titty pump

Was feeling kinda sick when I got done with bench so I called it a day ... the wife is feeling sick today too so maybe we've got a little bug

See you in 2019! :-)
[Reply]

And the wager is made! I'm sure I have something sort of comparable (maybe...not really) :-)

Get some Charlie, all PR's for final Day?
