03.03.10

Deadlift: 502x2

Pull-Up and Hanging Pike* Superset: BWx12,11,10 each

Concept Rower: 500 meters in 2:07

* This is performed like a leg raise, but the shins are brought up to the pull-up bar.




03.07.10

Squat: 345x5,4,3,2,1

Good Morning (no belt): 255x6,6,6

Hanging Pike: BWx10,10,10,10,7

Sauna: ~10 minutes


03.09.10

Bench Press (paused): 200x3,3,3

- I felt elbow pain during these work sets, most likely from yoke training during a strongman session on February 27th. I only feel it during bench workouts, not squat or dead. It's most likely lateral epicondylitis (inflammation of the outer elbow) which I had in the past and will hopefully be gone before my upcoming powerlifting meet on March 27th.

Incline Dumbbell Press: 70*x7,5,3

- I failed the 6th and 4th reps of the respective 2nd and 3rd sets, both near the top. I'm not sure if my elbows were the reason and/or if it was because I hadn't done incline dumbbell press in a while. I also wanted to do a few sets of the Tate press for triceps, but it wouldn't have been a good idea due to the elbows.

You guys have some serious intensity going on at that gym. I think one of you needs to adopt me as a son and move me to NY.

Great log. Like the detail. Keep hitting it hard DW. Where are you competing on the 27th?
