Somehow I missed this post. Thanks for the kind words buddy. I actually went to a doctor today for a second opinion and it was way more positive than the first so it was good news day and picked my spirits up.

Thanks Don. Not sure what’s been going on. Definitely frustrating and concerning, but will keep pushing on. Or do what I can.

January 8, 2019 Before Supper Week 8. Still sick. Was supposed to be 3 sets of 4 for bench. Historically my toughest week. Lost tightness and missed the 4th on the first set so I dropped to triples. Can’t feel too bad. First miss in 36 weeks and I’m sick. Anywhooo, a few extra sets just cause. Y-pulls x 3 x 25r Bench Press wu to 130k x 3.5, 7 x 3r 2 Board CG Bench 110k x 6/7/7 Axle Row 213 x 4 x 10r

That would be awesome!

It's all coming together.... Saxon bar is built and I have 2 training sessions on it. My wife is on board because she is an arachno-culturalist and there is a big-name tarantula breeder in Tuscon. Plus she wants to try to catch an Arizona Blonde tarantula in the wild. And she loves Mexican food (who doesn't).

Drinking wine right now because I’m classly like that

Tuesday January 8, 2019 Warmed up by testing my max log press for a press challenge I'm participating in the next 6 weeks. Managed 185. 5lbs off my best strict log that I hit at the end of the summer. Nothing will change in my training. Bench press 235×6×3 A1 log press 150×6×2 A2 pullup +25×6×2 B1 Jefferson curl 40×1min×2 B2 toes to bar R7×10, R8×8 Front splits 3min/side  Wrestler's bridge pullovers 50×20, 55×20 Bridge pushups feet elevated 12"×8×3 C1 Lateral raise 20×15×3 C2 banded face pulls purple×15×3

Good day. Not great, but good. Worked up to 410 x 3 on 2" NN. Was so tired from that effort that I missed 430. Next time. Switched to using the blockbuster clone I have for pinch training. Will be contesting that in a comp Feb 16 and I want to get used to the rounded edges. Makes it harder than the other 3" block I have which has much sharper edges. I was pretty beat from the NN and ended up getting several partial lifts with 90. One I got all the way but lost it at top. I think I'm good for 90-93 fresh, which is about 10 below where I am on the other block. Need to get this dialed in a little better so I can give Jedd and Luke a run for their money next month on the BB.

I’m writing down this routine. Looks good!

Sorry to hear you weren’t able to complete this cert in 2018 Chez! 2019 has got to be the year you nail this. All the best in your recovery.

This video is of me breaking single jack chain #8 x 3 feet long with only my hands and gloves. Please let me know what you guys think and if you or anyone you know can do this. Thank you and have a great day training. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAxqbaD0Tp8

Starting to?... How about now?

Starting to feel real......

Heh probably some special vodka Anyways he is a spectacular strength athlete one of the best in the world right now who could destroy the all time total world record in powerlifting right now if he wanted to. I'd love to see him compete in strongman since he is quite tall and would do well and probably make more money in that sport also. I think he is involved with armlifing in russia but he seems to be involved in grip for sure. Would be great to see him at mighty mitts also. The video reminded me of arm wrestler nick zinna who easily ccs a 3.5 sitting down after already taxing his grip on a lot of grip events.

Yep. I’m injured at the moment guys. I’m still lifting but I have to stay away from grip for a bit while I heal. I’ll be back. Still tons of fight and no quit in me. I have come back stronger from every injury and I plan to do the same this time
