MattM Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 All good stuff here man! Do you think you will pull sumo if you do a meet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strongman1 Posted May 18, 2015 Author Share Posted May 18, 2015 Yea, probably sumo. Seems to be better on my back. Never really had my hip joints crack after sitting for a while until I started doing all sumo though. 3/15/15 - Friday Bench 1 x 1 x 370 - video - forgot my elbow sleeves so borrow EFS sleeves, which I probably got a little pop out of. Pretty fast rep though. 5 x 3 x 330 Benching with feet on floor again. I'm not arching as much. Trying to keep my abs really tight instead. Trying to save the beating my back gets. DB Row 3 x 10 x 150 - straps Ab Wheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strongman1 Posted May 18, 2015 Author Share Posted May 18, 2015 (edited) 3/17/15 - Sun morning Squat 1 x 420 - video side - video front (scroll to 2:44) Going back to the wide squat again. The weight sucks, but so far seems easier on the back. We'll see what this week brings. Mobility is pretty bad though, hard to hit depth. DB SLDL and Lunge light Ab Rotation / Band Ham Curl 3 x 20 / 3 x 20 Ab Wheel 2 x 20 1 x 15 extra stretching, hips really tight.

Happy that my back didn't hurt, which is rare these days. That part was amazing actually. Especially since I did some squatting Sunday. More of a grinder than I thought it would be.

strongman1 Posted June 6, 2015 Author Share Posted June 6, 2015 Been training, but not keeping up the log. Most training sessions were faster and lighter.

strongman1 Posted March 16, 2017 Author Share Posted March 16, 2017 3/11/17 - Southside meet First meet back since the torn bicep. Bench 363 - had the rack height way too low so it felt heavy. shook my confidence for the next attempt, but turned out well. 402 413 - 6 lb pr Did bench only, so not to hard to write up. I benched. 3 times. 3 whites on all the lifts. Pretty happy with the PR. Competed in the 275 class (weighed 272 with clothes). Last January benched 407 in the 242 class (walking around at 252 lbs though). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
