Felt good today, I loosened up very well. Had some hip tightness, but I always do. Too much sitting, what are you gonna do? Gotta work.

Anyways I used the new 13mm Lever Belt and it was awesome. Crazy support, made everything feel much stronger. I have to get used to it really digging in, but that should be fine in a couple weeks.

Thanks man.

I do my deloads at a much higher percentage than most people. I cut the volume more than anything, that seems to help with recovery more than anything.

Juggernaut Squats, beginning of the 5s cycle
I was pretty tired at the gym today. I had to get up early and work with my dad. This involved very heavy lifting of a heater up and down steps, but still a good session.

Squats
315x5x5
315x6
Hips were hurting, I need to do more hip work in my recovery stuff.

Deficit Deadlifts, off 6 mats, feet barely fit under the bar
135x3
225x3
315x1
365x1
405x2 singles
Low back was hurting a bit here.

KB Swings
50lb x 12
55 x 4 x 10
These felt good to really loosen my back and work on explosive power.

Banded Hip work
not sure what to call this stuff, but it works the hips hard.

Quick workout today, had to get back to work. Overall I am happy with the start of the third cycle of Juggernaut, weights felt a little heavy but next week will be better!

Sunday Morning Madness and a little stupidity
When I woke up today, I was feeling very sore and stiff. So I did the only thing that makes me feel better, training!! Here is what I did

Bottom Position Squats off pins
135x2x3
185x3
225x3
275x3x3

Bottom Position Front Squats
135x3
185x3
225x3x3
This was the first time I have done these, and they will now be a staple in my training. I miss front squats, and I like doing them this way a lot!

Hang Cleans
135x2x3
185x7 or 8 sets x 3
First rep was actually a power clean off the floor and then 2 hang cleans, but whatever

Here was the stupidity part, I was removing the bar from the j hooks to put it down on the pins when I switched from back to front squats, so I grabbed in and kind of did this ugly clean negative type move and I tweaked my wrist pretty good. Nothing that will stop anything, I was just very angry with my self for being stupid.

Now I am going to stuff myself like a pig, Boucher said he might want to do strongman later. I better rest up!

Quick Tire Flipping Session
Boucher came over and did some tire flips, trying to get him back on the site but he is crazy busy right now with work, lifting, his wedding and fire fighting. He will be back when life settles down

Tire Flips went like this
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 5, 4, 3

Good volume, we kept the pace up pretty good too. I did not want to do too much, just enough to get in some good conditioning work

How's the body feeling right now Jeremy?

Overall I am happy with the start of the third cycle of Juggernaut, weights felt a little heavy but next week will be better!

Crush it.
