    Weights: Lower Hypertrophy

    Squats 4x15
    BB Step-Ups 3x12
    BB RDL 3x10
    Leg Extension 3x12
    Lying Leg Curl 3x12
    Calves Extend 3x12
    Farmer's Carry 3x40s

    Analysis: Neglected to post this on Friday.

    Cardio: Shoveling snow - 45 minutes (Sunday)

    Food: Dinner - pot roast last night

    NFL: Now THAT was a satisfying win for my Broncos against our division rival Chiefs. Announcers kept going on the entire time about how the only possible explanation for the upset was how poorly the Chiefs were playing, not once propping up how well the Broncos came to play. But throughout the entire 16-game losing streak, there was only ever a single game which was a true blowout; the rest were all one-score margins, single play could reverse the winner, and often did. Going into our bye on a two-game win streak feels awful nice.

    That was good to see. And hearing about all these announcers slamming Purdy over his interceptions forgot to mention he's still so young and even the best (Mahomes) got lit yesterday.

    Hey gang

    I like myself unconditionally!

    Happy Tuesday! Full schedule and kickboxing class this morning. We do close at 6pm instead of 11pm today due to Halloween. So I'll just go home and do some cardio.

    Cardio: Walking/jog- 260 calories

    Strength: chest- incline chest press, machine flat bench, dips, machine flyes, cable crossovers. 4x12,10,8,6

    Assessment: Steak and salad for dinner.

    Weights: Upper Power

    Bench Press 5x5
    Cable Row 5x5
    DB Press <superset> DB Row 5x5
    Seated BB OHP 3x5

    Analysis: Had a revelation overnight when I realized that throughout my powerlifting days, when I didn't have problems with my elbows, I rarely if ever did isolation work on bis/tris, certainly never using heavy weights. So for the next few power days, I'm dropping off the arm work to see how my left elbow feels about the change.

    Food: Last night was baked chicken with noodles

    FF: Went 2-2 this week (can there ever be a different result?). My best team sits 7-1 with a 4-game lead and six weeks to play, so feeling comfortable there, despite the fact I have no QB this week (both Lawrence and Wilson are on bye, and Kyler Murray is yet to return to duty). My team 4 is not feeling comfortable; I was 4-1 and feeling strong, until I lost Justin Fields, starting a 3-game losing streak despite being top-3 in scoring each week, just facing a top-2 team every time.

    Team 1: W (7-1)
    Team 2: W (5-3)
    Team 3: L (2-6)
    Team 4: L (4-4)

    Weights: Lower Power

    Rack Pull 5x5
    BB Hip Thrust 5x5
    One-Leg Press 5x5
    Cable Crunch 4x10

    Analysis: In keeping with my theme from yesterday of dropping the peripheral lifts on power day, I dropped the leg curls and calf work, bumping up the leg press weight slightly to go from 3x8 to 5x5.

    Food: Last night was Papa Murphy's pizza

    Machine Lateral Raise 3x10
    Machine Curl <superset> Machine Pushdown 3x10 (both 3-second negatives)
    Perloff Press 3x15sec

    Analysis: Added face pulls for those rear delts, thanks in part to reading that thread of yours, @ninerbuff, about desk sitters and posture. Thanks to my military background I'd like to think I keep my posture fairly erect, but I should still be hitting them anyway.

    Food: Last night was home grilled hamburgers
