Does Chris hickson still come on here btw?  Hes a stronger puller than I am obviously but it seemed like he hit 800 something at 1 point and then started to get weaker as time went on, didnt know if hes still jumping around in weight classes or not.

hickson hasn't logged in here since 2012.

EDIT: still training though, at least as of last fall. grip strength still mind-boggling.

Yeah i saw a vid he posted like a month or 2 ago of bombing out on 800lbs, he got it maybe halfway or less and his nose blew up and the lilliebridges helped him up on it.  I just remember when he used to be able to smoke it.

Tonight

Back day- On all of the pulls around 275 and up I held it for 5 second pauses at the top to work grip strength

Stiff leggers rack pull mid shin
warm up- 135-275
315x3(pulled them like 3 singles)
345x3(pulled them like 3 singles)
365x3(pulled them like 3 singles)
385- regular pull
405- regular pull

Bent over row- focused on my upper back tightness
135x3x10

Tbar row- worked up to 5platesx10
- the position of these made me want to shit my pants, its like biking on an upright bike where it feels like you took a dump after eating a ghost pepper.

Lat pulldowns- worked up to full stackx10 i believe 4 sets total with the same handle i use for t bars
                      - straight bar reverse grip- 115x3x10 focusing on a 2-4-2 tempo

TeaPots(oblique side bends) 65x3x10

Friday night i did a lot of arm week

This morning- didnt sleep well so i was groggy n shit so I didnt go and I'm going to start tracking how I feel.

Last skwaat session I felt really good id say 9/10

This workout
Feeling- 6/10
Bar feel- 7/10(how the weight feels on my back)

I lowered the volume because I wanted to get heavier triples instead of wearing myself out

bar-315 were warm ups

365x3
375x3(pr)
385x3(pr)
405x3(pr)
       -  This was a big confidence booster, I didnt feel great and yet now when I look at 405 I dont psych myself out and get intimidated.  I can look at it now and just have the confidence to say yup ima hit this easy

DB deadlifts for 10 reps, 80s, 90s, 100s
hammy curls- heavy single legs and then 3 sets of dub legs

bicep work

tomorrow morning some bw shit possibly and a lot of ab work

Steady weight at 294 which is bad BUT i think im getting leaner and my legs and upper body mainly back, trapz, arms and mid section are getting bigger and bigger

Thank you sir.  Soon I'm going to buy just a cheap belt and get some heavy duty knee sleeves to protect myself as the weights get heavier and heavier from this point.  I'll probably utilize them like the slanger, do as much work as I can raw then throw the belt n knee sleeves on.

This morning

idk weight, forgot to check.

bike for 30 minutes, nice and easy and I havent been sleeping well lately so it was just a groggy day like yesterday
3 sets of 20 reps for medball sit ups(thrown to a partner)

Tonight is chest and Tris


Also, I have been keeping my calorie count between 2k-2500 on the weekends and ill track it today to see if i can keep it around the 2500 mark.

Morning- bagel w/ whipped cream cheese and 5 slices of turkey bacon - believe thats 400 calories or so, lets say 450
Lunch just now- 1lb delmonico steak and a birds eye veggie thing with a serving of bbq sauce- 1000 or so total

Cal count so far- 1450

In college wed get hooked up to a machine that told us our body fat and shit like that and how many calories we burn in a day at rest and at 215 or so i was burning 2300 calories a day at rest.  I would assume that carrying much more muscle alone would raise that upwards of high 2ks.  After I get the state job ill be going to a hospital to have the water tests done to figure out my actual body fat and what not.

Last night was back, weighed in at 292, umm nothing to really report just my last night of doing stiff legged rack pulls and didn't go too heavy because I slept wrong and my back was fucked.

This morning- 20 mins on arc trainer
ab cable crunches - worked up to 130 from 70.  Before my raw days i could do 70 fine but 85 would feel heavy as shit but now adding just raw work in for the past few months have made my mid section a lot stronger
tea pots- worked up to 100s for a set of 10 starting at the 70s

Made it to the hiring pool for Nucor which is a steel mill near me.  With it my gainz might drop when they decide to hire me but even with the lowest paying job there at 10 an hr, with the weekly profit shares on a bad week turns into about 20 an hr.  It'll be good to have until I get to the academy but my weight definitely drop

your body will adjust to the increased work load. your gains will drop only temporarily...

...provided you eat enough! if you dont lose weight theres no reason to keep losing strength.
