    Weights: Upper One

    Bench Press 10x3x64% 1RM
    Cable Row 4x10
    Machine Decline Press 3x10
    Machine High Row 4x10
    Seated Arnold Press 3x10
    DB Curl 3x10 (Twist Curl, Hammer Curl, Concentration Curl) <<superset>> DB Lying Skullcrusher 3x10
    Cable Woodchoppers (Low, Mid, High) 3x10

    Analysis: Switching up my heavy days for the next few months, trying out a new protocol I found online for increasing bench 1RM via higher volume at lower, but increasing, weights. Starts with 10 triples at 65% of 1RM, add 5# each week, if you fail to complete a triple one week then that set is left off the next week, so over time as the weights go up the number of sets will slowly whittle down until you're left at a single set, at which point you recalculate your 1RM and should have seen an increase. We'll see, but by swapping my 5-rep sets for 10-rep sets everywhere else, it'll give my joints a bit of a break for the next few months, even if I stick with the same exercises as before.

    Food: Last night was homemade pizza.

    Weights: Lower One

    Rack Pull 4x10
    BB Hip Thrust 4x10
    One-Leg Press 4x10 <superset> Leg Press Calf Extend 4x15
    Roman Chair Knee-Ups 4x20

    Analysis: Swapping from 5x5 to 4x10 creates an entirely different sort of tired/sore. First time in a long time I felt like crawling towards the locker room after leg day. For the leg press, used same weight as my one-leg 5x5 but with both legs and really, really deep drop over a slow 3 count. Oy, vey.

    Food: Last night was stir-fried chicken and veggies over rice.

    I'm fully aware you're a Warriors guy. My post was intended to give you an avenue to celebrate the Lakers losing, though I guess I can see how it got misinterpreted into me being snarky about somebody's favorite team losing. Sorry for the confusion.

    Weights: Lower One

    Rack Pull 4x10
    BB Hip Thrust 4x10
    One-Leg Press 4x10 <superset> Leg Press Calf Extend 4x15
    Roman Chair Knee-Ups 4x20

    Analysis: When I do rack pulls for sets of five reps, I use wrist straps to help pull a bar too heavy for my grip. But when I do sets of 10, my grip is just strong enough to get all 10 reps the first couple sets, then have to readjust after rep 7-8 for the remaining sets. Even though my legs can likely go heavier, I'm planning on sticking right here to give my grip a chance to catch up.

    Food: Last night was unstuffed peppers (similar to stuffed peppers, except the pepper is diced and mixed into the sauce)
