Did a bunch of assistance work yesterday and am tired after three
days straight. My triceps were entirely cooked over the last two days,
so I didn't expect a whole lot from benching today.
Started with
dynamic work, B-Ala/creatine, and a bunch of caffeine. Used loose
briefs for the heaviest squats, belt (I always wear a belt once the
weight passes 550# -- call it a mental block), and knee and elbow
sleeves (bench).
Squat x3@8.5 + -5%: 315kg. Not much progress
here. This was more like a 9 on the final rep, I think. Seriously
thought I was going to pass out for a moment.
2-count bench +chain x2@9 + -5%: 210kg plus all my chain. Felt pretty good -- this is progress. Go figure.
Elbow-out
exts x5@9 + -5%: a bunch. I think I like narrow-grip bench better. I
need a plate-loaded cable pulldown for triceps pushdowns.
Hope all have a great week.
