Shoggoth Posted July 3, 2019 Author Share Posted July 3, 2019 July 2, 2019 Before Supper Week 2. Jacked up my finger tendons trying to get my SBD knee sleeves on. I’ve only wore them 4-6 times and always fight with the left. After 15 minutes of fighting I put my Stoic’s on. Anyone looking for size large SBD knee sleeves let me know. Anyways, no grip stuff today. Also going to start adding some pause squats again.

EricMilfeld Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 I don’t doubt you struggle to get on the Large. I normally train in XL and have to get psyched-up to squeeze into my Large. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoggoth Posted July 6, 2019 Author Share Posted July 6, 2019 July 6, 2019 Afternoon Week 4. Pretty foggy in the head today. No zazz. Surprised I did what I did. Did a deload. Yardio Axle Press wu to 243 x 4 x 1r Axle Strict Press 183 x 3 x 3r Stone Futzing. Lifted the D-ball a bunch, had some attempts on the blue marble and got it up to just about the transition point to lap it. Then I lifted my 250 concrete to the chest a few times. Cleaned up. Grabbed my sandbag and took it for a walk. Wow did it feel light after stones. Made me poop a bit on the walk though. I think I’ll add some sand and get it up to around 300#.
