NOTES
Well, turned 49 and the world didn't end today, so it has been a pretty good day. Smoking ribs for dinner and WILL have some Boston Creme Pie for my birthday cake. Looking forward to is.

Squats - Wanted 20 reps for the final set, but form was breaking, legs were aching so it was time to rack it.
Glute Bridges - I have noticed that since I have started doing glute and ham work, I have had virtually no back pain. These are a variation of the Hip Thrusters I have been doing, only with shoulders on the floor. I do not hyperextend the back as much this way, though it is harder to set the weights.
BHNP - Was easier than I thought it would be. Felt great
Inclines - needless to say, my triceps were pretty much fried, this enabled me to use more pec so while the weight was lighter, the work was not.
Smith Pendlays - a nice way to finish the day.

In and out in an hour, even with interruptions.

^ Oreo cookie gave me a laugh.

Press PRs keep rolling down the assembly line.

NOTES
Slept in, body telling me I need more sleep. It felt good.

Rack Deads - These felt good. The 275 went up easy. I am sticking with my plan and did not push the 295 past 3 reps. Next week I go for 5. Very pleased.

Incline Bench - Felt easy too. Must have been the extra carbs last night.

Leg Press/ Leg Curls superset - Starting to get the feel of the vertical leg press. Will add weight next week.

Glass Style OHP - These are plate weight only. Added 5 lbs, again these felt good.

Overall just a little under 60 minutes from warm ups to completion. Good day in the Dog House despite the rain.

Good work Bama. Hope you and yours had a relaxing and happy Christmas.

NOTES
Good day,felt a bit rushed but I made sure I got everything in.

Squats - Last heavy set added 5 lbs, last set added 2 reps. Legs were on fire, hated racking it
Glute Bridge - will move back to the Hip Thruster next week, as it is easier to use weight. The Glute bridge makes getting the weight up correctly.
BHNP - added 5 lbs to final heavy set. A new PR. There were 10 pumpsets to follow, my ipad just cuts them off when trying to take the picture of the logger app
Incline Bench - Nothing new to report
Smith Pendlay - added 5 lbs

Medial delt insertion is acting up today. Glad to have the weekend to rest up.

Hope those squats felt light Bama.

Not too concerned with how these feel, but how I feel. It has been about a year since I was flirting with a personal best on squats. The High rep set is the killer, but, as they say... "what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger."
