Sunday Strongman
It was freezing out today, but I put on some more layers and crushed it.Once I got warmed up I felt great, and the sun was out so it is all good. Started a Strong-15 short cycle for my log press, going to focus on this for a while, since that is what will be in the competition.

Log Press-clean once and press
105x2x5
145x4
175x3
195x2
215x1
225x1
235x1
175x 12 PR
This is a pr, pretty much because I have never done this high of reps for log. I was expecting it to be higher, but I think this will be very helpful.

Farmers-tons of volume
*all sets were about 50 feet
-weights are each hand
160 x 2
210 x 2
250 x 2
270 x 1
300 x miss
250 x 4 - this was the volume
270 x 1 why not
Disappointed with the 600, I can pick this, but the issue is that I do my farmers on the side of the street. So it is not perfectly flat, this did not affect me too much until I get to near max weights. No excuses, just need to get stronger.

Band Work

Gms x 3 x 20

Curls x 3 x 20

Tri Extension x 3 x 20
-this was basically just to get some blood into my muscles, and make sure I was loose.

I am starting to tighten up now and I am gonna feel this workout. Traps are blown up! Not sure what will happen tomorrow, gym closes early, not sure if I will have time to train at home. We will see if not I can train on tuesday at home.

Happy new year to everyone at MAB

Solid event training JW, it awesome to train outside in the winter aswell. just have to cover onself in neoprene) Im doing something similair with my Logpress, I think the repwork will do you good.

Thanks everybody, my training is going well right now. the next step is to get my nutrition on board and really take everything to the next level.

Starting next monday I am going to do another experiment with carb backloading, but I have a much better plan this time around. And I am really going to moniter my weight.

Holy Hangover!!!
First workout of 2013 was an interesting one. Had to bench in my basement, which is tough. I can not get any leg drive and my hand position has to be altered. Got close to hitting the reps so I am satisfied. I had a brutal hangover after last night and was not able to eat much today

Close Grip Bench Press
135 x 2 x 5
185 x 5
225x3
255 x 1
275 x 7
Goal was 8 here, but I am ok with this, due to hangover and New Year's Eve festivities

High Incline Bench off Pins
135 x 2 x 5
185 x 3 x5
these were tough, bar was set right at my chest

Strict Rows
135x 10
185 x 4 x 8
This is where my hangover came back around

Tricep Pushdown
90 x 20
90 plus doubled mini x 2 x 10
55 plus doubled mini x 2 x 15

BB Curls
45 x 20
75 x 15
95 x 3 x 10

Overall a pretty good session for the condition of my body. Tonight I am going to try to pack in some serious calories to get ready for tomorrow. Early bed time tonight, big squat workout tomorrow.
