Shoggoth Posted October 25, 2017 Author Share Posted October 25, 2017 October 25, 2017 Afternoon D4B3 Press. Went to a different chiropractor yesterday. I typically haven’t regarded them super high in the past but I figured I’ll try a different, well regarded one and see how it goes. Really cracked up my low back and right shoulder so I’m going to try and not undo that work today by holding back a bunch. I’ll go back in Friday again as well. Seated BTN Press WU to 135 x 8 x 3r - unracking really hurt. Good after I get the first rep in of each set. SS Spoto Bench WU to 235 x 6 x 4r DB Row 100e x 6 x 5r 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRC Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 How did the steel snapping go at your king kong comp? Any feedback? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 3 of the 8 managed to not give up and finish it haha! That said one didn’t try and one grabbed a ladies 60d by accident. There was a lot of sweat left on the floor that’s for sure. I reversed one of the 80d’s in one hit after just for fun too. Ben Collins (the venue winner) also put a good wobble in one after a few reverse hits as well. I think some folks may give the snapping a go at home. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
