    I started peaking for a meet January 28th. First two workouts are in.





    I've also designed the shirts (and medals) once again this year.


    Deadlifts tomorrow.

    DAMNNNNZZZZ I'm excited to hear how you do.

    Thanks- Feeling pretty good- not quite as good as I WISH I was feeling- I'm headed into week 3 at this point- and I wish I felt a little stronger- I think I need more carbs before I head in- but I'll be happy if they look this good over 185. Actually I'll be happy if I can 20 rep anything over 200. LOL- that will be a big bleeping win.

    Here's my 5/3/1 for today. I'm doing it modified so I do the full 5/3/1 cycle for squats every week and then my other lifts are on the regular 3 weeks schedule. The deload day helps to vary what day I'm doing my heaviest squats so it doesn't always correspond with my DL day.

    Today was 1+ squats, 5+ DL, and trying to work my way up to 20 straight BW pull-ups. Pull-ups will be easier if I can lose some of this extra poundage :tongue: but then my other lifts will get harder...

    Too good not to share! This guy goes from curling in the squat rack next to me to unsolicited spotting of me in the safety rack.

    i love the way your 9th rep picked up speed once it was really clear you had an alien in your air space :smiley: . those gloves were so great though. i mean, how could you object to a stranger potentially touching you if they're wearing gloves?

    unrelated: set really looked great. i think in the last couple of 20-rep clips you were a little looser and nowhere near as dialed in as this looked.

    420, 445, 475 doubles, single 495. Felt good to pull five plates again. Peak is on track.



    Wouldn't you know it, laying in bed sick now. Arg. At least I can get the first cold of the year out of the way weeks before the meet.

    Live the chaos.

    245x10 deads yesterday for my 5+ day of 5/3/1.
    I guess this is technically a rep PR as I've never attempted to rep this much before. (Because why would I do 10 reps of deads??) If I had chalk or a decent bar I probably could have eeked out a few more if I reeeally tried. Awesome to see my grip doing this well though, as I could barely hold 265x1 on these bars a few months ago. 12.5 weeks out!!

    You make that look so easy! I tried 205 DL today...couldn't get it off the floor! LOL

    Haha... those weren't actually gloves either. He had wrist wraps on and then was hold "fat grips" that he was using while curling the bar.

    Being dialed in and tight might have something to do with the belt too. I was doing the 20 rep program without it.

    @nakedraygun I'm joining you the sick meet prep club unfortunately.
    I've got plenty of time, but it sucks being so fired up about my first week of new programming and feeling like poo! :/
