Friday 8 Nov 13 Auxiliary Day 1 20 minute stretch and warm-up Bench: NOTE:1 minute rest between sets. (touch and go--no bs high school bounce/no chalk, wraps or belt) (close grip) 2 x bar x 20 135 x 20 (pinky on bar ring) 185 x 3 (paused/wraps/no belt or chalk/ring finger on bar ring) 225 x 12 Good warm-up on these today. 4 Board Press: NOTE: 2 minute rest. (touch and go--no bs high school bounce/no chalk or belt/ yes wrist wraps) (sink it in deep and push it real good) (index finger on bar ring--my old competition grip) 275 x 3 2 x 315 x 10 Felt good and strong on these. Add another sets next time around. Dumbbell Front Laterals: NOTE:1 minute rest between sets. (in the style of pouring water) 15lbs x 10 3 x 40 x 10 Good weight on these for today. Dumbbell Rock 'n' Rolls: NOTE:1 minute rest between sets. Similar to the lying dbell triceps extension but you touch the shoulder, roll shoulder back to head the back up and extend the arm up. 15lb x 10 30 x 25 40 x 25 50 x 20 Was losing form on the 50's at about the 18th rep. Called it a day on these. Triceps are totally shot. Especially at the triceps brachii medial head(inner upper elbow) This is a great exercise to help you with the lockout on your bench! TapouT abs: 16 minutes Target Stretch: 20 minute today Comments: Solo today. Still good work on the tris and delts today.

Meal of the day for me today (Saturday 9 Nov 13) is a 3 quart mixing bowl over half full of Lucky Charms and skim milk.
Oh man that was some good stuff right there! What is that I hear through my pc? All the bodybuilders mouths dropping open wishing they had a bowl too and saying out loud, "No wonder you powerlifters are fat!" Well, I'll have you know I'm a powerlifter trapped in a bodybuilder's body. So there, lol.

Pulldowns to Chest:NOTE: When I do pulldowns of any sort I squeeze hard at the bottom and stretch for my shoulder and not my elbows at the top. (3.3.3 tempo/1.5 minute rest all) (36" d-bar attch) 100 x 20 (triangle atach) 160 x 25 (36" d-bar attch) 160 x 25 (48" lat bar attach--super wide grip) 160 x 25 Weight was too light for this today but it was supposed to be a light back day.

(2.2.2 tempo/1.5 minute rest/ no belt/ outside grip) bar x 20 (no count bar weight here on out) 30 x 20 50 x 10 60 x 8 70 x 6 55 x 16 Biceps are nice and tight now.

Monday 11 Nov 13 Deadlift Day 20 minute stretch and warm-up 4" Block Pulls: (1.5 minute rest/no belt, straps, hooks or chalk) (conventional stance) 135 x 12 (sumo stance) 135 x 12 (conventional stance) 225 x 5 (sumo stance) 275 x 5 (conventional stance) 315 x 1 (3 minute rest) (sumo stance) 365 x 1 (conventional stance) (alternate grip-left palm up/no belt, straps, hooks or chalk) 405 x 1 100% raw today on these.Felt good, good pulls and strength level was up today but it's still early in the cycle yet for some crazy shit to happen. So I contained for today. 4" Block Pulls Snatch Grip: (2 minute rest all/no belt or chalk) (1st set is thumb hook style snatch grip) 315 x 4 NOTE: Hooks on these next 2 sets as my grip was giving way on the last rep above. (hooks, no belt or chalk) 2 x 315 x 4 Felt good and strong here today also despite my grip giving way. Dmubbell Bent-over Rows: (1.5 minute rest/2.2.2 tempo/no belt all) 25lbs x 20 80 x 12 (2nd and 3rd sets hooks-grip giving way) 2 x 80 x 12 I dunno why I even do these or b/b for that matter. Even though I've been known to throw some weight around on the 2 exercises at times. I just don't seem to get anything from them not matter which style of form I use. It's just the point of variety for my back that I do these. Chins, pulldowns and low rows do it more for me. TapouT Abs: 16 minutes Target Stretch: about 20 minutes Comments: Solo. Still a good training day. I almost had an all raw deadlift day but it's all good. The primary exercise was 100% raw and I'm good with that.
