Squats were a little high, but overall, solid work! (you probably knew that, but it's my job to tell you)

You're meet is an APA meet, right? Maybt those squats will be fine, but IMO you should sink them a *little* deeper and you'll be fine.

Looks like a good week of training. Tough, but good!

Had a real bad week last week. Was not able to get in a leg or the second bench day last week cause of my high school team lifting in their regional meet last Thurs. We did well, but it took a lot out of me physically and mentally, so by friday I was wasted. I hope this week will be the start of better work for myself.

Good workout. only problem was I missjudged the starting wt. on the 1 board chain work and could only get 2 full sets in. Will set that up better next time. was pleased with the wt. on the band + chain work today. about 9 weeks out from apa bench nationals and feeling pretty good right now. cannot wait to get back into the shirt next month.

Thought the workout as a whole was good. The 290 felt good, probably 1 more rep if I had chosen to do more. The 2 board and chains felt very good. Feel like I am getting better each week. My raw bench still stinks, but its getting better with each week. :)

Good workout. Raw strength seems to be really improving. Thanks Mike!!! Only difference that might have made a difference was I used a older pair of purple bands. Used a brand new pair last week, so that made have made some difference as far as the amt. of bar wt. I ended up doing today. I believe I did better on the 1 board and JM's than I did last week.

comments:

well, I accually thought the shirt work did not go well, but after looking back at last week, went up 5lbs. on it. Guess it was better, but felt like sin! The towel and 3 board was good. The whole thing went well even though I had not eaten all day. Got busy and did not get a chance. Felt like crap when it was all done, but got it done.
