Remember, you're going to the Bench Worlds, not the Raw Squat Worlds :).

Thanks Jon!

Unfortunately I strained my pec a little, so I will be taking it easy for 2-3 weeks. I won't push it at all and will be getting A.R.T. tonight! I could kind of feel it coming on, just should have acted before it strained. Good thing is that there aren't any bruises and my ROM is ok. I just need a little ART for a couple weeks and will be OK.

Brady, the 44 is sick, the groove hooks up amazingly. Only did some light weight and never got the neck pulled down but I look forward to some big numbers soon. Sorry to hear about the peck.

Monday - DELOAD

Just deloading this week. I've had a couple sessions of ART and I already think its helped. I am pretty sure that the pec is OK to push over 90%, but I won't do that for another 5 weeks (including this week). I will be doing an 8 week meso coming up. 4 weeks accumulation and 4 weeks transmutation. I'll be using the RTS charts for the sets/NL.

Benched 235 x3x12 today...paused the last set. Absolutely no pain or pulling...which is a good sign!

Squats 390 x3x3...easy

Moved a squat rack into the house today. Can't wait till I can squat in it!

Brady,
Glad to hear the pec felt better. Quick question, what set up do you want me to use on the Reverse Bands? Also next week I have a 7-9 set, 18-23 rep workout. Ok to work up to 2 sets of 6 for the top end? If I can do them at an "8" RPE it would be new pr. Thanks. BTW the 48 Super Katana will not even work as a training shirt - too damned tight.

Wow.  I can't believe its that tight!  Are you getting bigger or something? 

You probably can work the sets like that.  If you wanted to, you could do a couple top sets of 5s instead.  Even though you'll be working to a 7.  When lifting at a lower intensity, it'll be harder to estimate a PR anyways, so the accumulation of volume is a priority over the PR with those protocols.

Tried the micro mini bands out for the first time. I like them. They are adding more weight than I originally thought. I didn't expect 40lbs out of them. But they could be as high as 50lbs.

Just getting into the habit of deadlifting 2 times per week again. Added stiff legs as 4th exercise for the first time in months.
