Damn dude you flew thru those fronts like it was nothing and ohp looked like Bar weight only! Have you always used that grip for fronts or did you start out crossed grip and if so wtf did you do to get the mobility?

Thanks 5! ...I have pretty bad shoulder mobility...can't get elbows much higher...wrist wraps help with any discomfort in the front rack, but I still stretch my wrists prior. I mash my forearms, triceps, delts, and chest which also contribute to better mobility afterwards. Cross armed always lead to bicep strains because of bad positioning and tendencies.

Fighting a virus over the weekend...fever forced me out of Friday's session...definitely still did not feel anywhere near 100% today...Squats were supposed to be 430 x 5, but knew I wouldn't stand a chance so went with a 2x3 that was still fairly difficult. Skipped rows and ab rollers.

Thanks 5...and yea...working midnight-8am is one thing, but these 16 hr shifts up to 4pm are killing me...staffing levels are crazy right now, but hoping the trend doesn't continue.

Tablet died right after my top set of 5 and didn't feel like using my phone to record the rest....felt like **** throughout the session, and had to rush through it because I was running late and had to pick my son up from school. So, had to opt out of Rows, Hypers, and Ab Rollers as well as no warmup sets for both Bench and Squats...also lost balance on my last rep @ 475 just a bit, didn't notice bar somewhat crooked before the attempt.

actually got 6 hrs of sleep before shift, got off @ 8am, and still went into this session around 1130am feeling better than usual...was a little short on time so skipped warmups for Bench and Deads.
