Good pump, I can't curl any heavier weights at the moment becasue of my left elbow. I want to follow the weaker arm so I don't create even more imbalances.

That's it, I will stop at 9 weeks because I will not be able to complete the progression, last rep was max effort unfortunately. Good thing is that I didn't feel anything in my thumbs despite not have done a single lift like that in years. I will do more abs, legs and back for a while and maybe I try some deadlifting in the future, or maybe not. Time will tell.

nice I like the volume you put in.

10 sets of 10 with 80 kg on bench, that's killer

I'm not dead yet.

It's been a year since I started training again now so will make a short update. I'm not planning on logging every day here again because I have a faster way of logging now.

So I haven't trained anything grip specific since december last year because my elbows can't handle all the pressing and tricep work in combination with grippers. I can do one of them but I can't do both at the same time to any significant extent. It's not really the pain that is the problem, I get so inflammed that I actually lose strength unfortunately. I managed to close my hard #3 with the GHP 38 mm block in december when I was still training it. Which was equal to my previous PR with that block but very shortly after that I realized it's not possible to train grippers anymore. I have to choose between grippers or bench press and I choose the latter because that will be more beneficial for my health and also more beneficial even for my grip in the long run.

The only grip I've been doing is double overhand deadlifts. I managed 195 kg for 2 reps. I haven't tried 200 kg or more yet because I didn't want to fail any lifts. I use a hook grip instead. I increased my deadlift from 190 kg to 220 kg. Hopefully I can try to get 200+ DO the next training cycle. My goal is to get to 250 this year. Theoretically it should be possible if I can complete the programming. I will try my best. I also have the option of adding a belt if I really feel like doing that.

I haven't done a single squat this year up until now, because I really felt I didn't get anywhere with it. But I increased my squat from 150 kg to 180 kg only by training deadlifts, leg press and leg extensions. I just started a new training cycle and I will try to do squats for the first 6 weeks, then continue another 6 weeks with only deadlifts. Will be interesting to see if I can handle the volume.

Started with grippers again, very slowly last week. I can close all my #3's without having touched them in months. However it's not something I can do whenever I want. But if I go to the gym and get my heart rate up, it's no problem.

I also tried another type of horseshoe I found but nope, it will never happen for me. I have big respect for people who can bend horseshoes, it's fu**ing impossible.

I managed to reverse bend a 8x170 mm rebar in single leathers touching in december, which is about equal to a light red nail. So that was a PR for me. I tried another one a few weeks ago and I wasn't even close to a full bend. But I think I'm satisfied there. I can't afford anymore steel anyways. I have to spend all my money on food now.

BW is 106-107 kg now. I was able to do 12 strict pull-ups at 103 kg and now I can only do 8 since I started to train my legs a lot.

 What I'm most happy about is that my left arm has, for the first time in my life catched up with my right, in fact it has even surpassed my right. I'm now stronger in my left arm on bicep curls, which is very strange because I have always been 2-3 kg weaker in left. Last week I did 30 kg db curl 100% strict with left and I couldn't get that with right.

Bench press goes slow. I can do 140 kg with a long pause. Still only doing close grip bench press, which really doesn't help my elbow tendonitis situation. But my elbows, while being inflammed a lot is ridiculously strong. I can rack off way more weight than that. I remember years a go when my max bench was around 110 kg I couldn't even rack off 130 kg. Now I can probably rack off 30-40 kg more than I can lift. I'm following a really high volume training program now and it's painful. Not gonna lie, I feel like comitting suicide pretty much every workout. Especially after doing 6 sets of 20+ reps.

I'll make another update in 6 months or so.
