Checked on my 45s they are expected here the 22nd so still a couple weeks of BB style work outs.
Not every day can be a PR day.
Yesterday I really had to push myself through squats.. usually I cant wait
Ever done 50s? Or that's what I think they're called. grab DBS you can do volume with. Do 4 sets of 50 reps. Then after the 4th set do 3 sets of 10-12 reps of a weight you can do 75-80% of your max with. Works great on chest and shoulders. Mad pump

No but will have to try it
Not even every month can be a PR month and sometimes even a year. That's when it really tests your determination.

Oh I am determined..... want my 45s, want my arms to quit hurting.... want to start mu drol damn it lol..
Hanging in there, 2 weeks until 45s show, another 2 weeks light workouts, 2 more weeks to heal, and 2 more weeks to cut some weight, then I am eating, 100mg drol, lifting heavy and no cardio lol
100%
I took your advice a while ago
I stopped trying to hit PRs too often.
Om about 2 weeks out froma bench PR attempt
squats have been slow lately as well since my last blast ended.
Will try a squat PR the week after
That's the way to do it. I used to try and hit my 100% on squats and bench once a week. I got sick numbers sure. But it always led to injury at some point. I find working at the 70-80% max weight for a 7-8 weeks and then attempting a PR much easier on the body.

The week is starting out shitty. Shit hit the fan and I worked 17 hrs yesterday, no breaks. So needless to say no cardio, PT, lifting. Hoping it eases up soon, not sure I can handle crazy hours this week and no lifting.
Side note the extra cardio last week I am down 2lbs to 207.

Well this week is officially a wash lifting and cardio wise.
No lifting
1 short walk
Will see what can be done this weekend probably cardio wise and get back lifting on Sunday. Work shouldn't be as bad next week.
In all honesty the 7 day break on the tendons may be a silver lining.
Hope my 45s show next week as planned

A good break won't hurt you at all. You will hit pr's when you get back at it. Dont sweat it!

I was wrong work has got me again this week. Worked 530am until 900pm last night another long one today and probably rest of week. I am gonna at least try and fit something in this week.
Question, anyone ever use a super ez curl bar? I prefer normal ez curl bar for tricep work as well but not sure with the more neutral grip on the super one.
On that my 10 45s are in... I can start fucking lifting heavy shit again when I can sneak away from work to get them

I miss the two years of working 20-25 hours a week at my last job.
Never used one, but that neutral grip would probably be kinder to the elbows doing triceps work.

Yeah I used to start work between 5 and 6. Go to gym around 10 and come back and work.... shit going nuts at work last couple weeks I dunno just cant do it, no time.
I am going to at least fit in some bench this week. Next week with my plates here I am thinking 5 3 1 to get back into it for a week or 2 and then back to Sheiko. At least with 531 a little less time commitment
Good to hear about the plates
Time to up the numbers!
As for the super easy curl, I like it.
Really helps with the elbow pain for me.
However, I feel like the focus shifts a little bit to the long head of the tricep.
So if I have elbow pain, I'll use it... if not I'll stick to easy curl, or rep out straight bar at light weights.
Pure bioscience, but that's where I feel it lol
