Week 2 day 2
Comp bench-1x3 @215lbs
drop- 2x3 @195lbs was hitting rpe too early so finished up 2x3 @185lbs
SSB 5 sec pause squats-1x3 @245lbs all of the SSB sets are insanely difficult
Drop-2x3 @220lbs
Floor press- called for 1x7 but only got 4 @185lbs dropped down to 1x7 @165lbs
drop-2x5 @155lbs

Came into the gym feeling strong today but forgot to bring the pop-tarts (literally) so I didn't have my calorie crutch to eat so ran out of gas. Powered through and i'm starving.

Did 275lbs paused last week and the extra 30lbs felt better than today.
That's SSB changes everything and adds to the misery, it's going to make me better in the long run though.
Short term suffering will lead to long term success (write that down).
I started tell myself that when school was getting rough, now it applies to everything I do haha.

Was awoken by a nose bleed this morning at about 3:15. No big deal, alarm was set for 3:30 anyways. I was aked to work the early shift this weekend so needed to get started early in the gym. Now I'm thinking I fucked up and won't have enough time to finish my training this morning. Writing this during breakfast.
Fucking early shift, what was I thinking...

After re-evaluating times going to push my training day 24hrs. If I left my house now I would have 1.25 hours to train on a 15x2 squat day. I can't afford to throw away training days because I'm rushing, smart thing to do is just wait until tomorrow and hit it hard like planned.

Week 2 Day 3
Up at 2:30am to make sure this got done today.

Squats- Call was for 15x2, was able to pull off 14x2 @245lbs via Safety squat bar... I'm still getting uses to the SSB. Still having to remind myself "high elbows", almost like the way you would front squat. When you forget to do that, the weight will definitely remind you when you try and come up.

Sumo Block Pulls- 3x1 @365lbs I am really happy with the progress I'm making on the sumo. For the most part I know what needs to be done, just need to keep working on the execution.

Split Squats- 5x7 @BW

Yeah, for two days in a row. Yesterday was a 0315 more bleed that substituted for my alarm. Today was a bit earlier so I wouldn't run out of training time. Ended up being a good a good day for me mentally, missing my gym date yesterday was messing with me.

After 41 years of marriage, I can assure you that your platitude doesn't always hit the mark.

Nice work. Yea, SSB's are tough but you are going to love the results.

Week 3 Day 1
Comp DL-1x3 @335lbs Decided to continue to work with Sumo pulls. Form was good until I got to my RPE 9 set, some breakdown there. That is to be expected.
Drop-4x3 @300lbs These were feeling awesome, almost too easy.
Double Pause Bench-2x5 @175lbs Not sure what happen here, the weight felt so heavy today. Hit my RPE of 8 and literally next set was 9.5 really weird.
Paused DL at Knee-1x5 @335lbs
Drop-3x5 @300lbs

Deadlifts were feeling nice today and I'm happy with my Sumo progress. Bench was juxtapose and was total shit today.
