Monday Bench night

Floor press with chains: worked up to 275 and added chains one at a time for sets of 3. I did 2 sets at 3 chains per side and one set with 4 chains per side.
KB Snatch: We did 5 sets of 5 per arm with the 88 lb KB
Rolling triceps ext: 65 X 10, 65 X 10, 75 X 10
Modified JM press: 3 sets of 10 with 90ish lbs.
Rope triceps ext: 3 sets of 10 with stack

The floor pressing sucked, but everything else felt pretty good.
I took this past Saturday off to go to the beer festival at the Columbia metro center. I learned a lot about how to home brew beer (which I plan to start my first batch soon) and tasted a lot of new beers. I would highly recommend that any beer enthusiast try to make it next year as it was a lot of fun.

Dead night

Reverse band deadlifts: worked up to 655 X 1 and then 695 X 1 conventional.
Switched to sumo and did 605 X 1, 695 X 2 sets of 1, maybe 745 x 1 I can't remember. I missed an attempt at 785 pretty badly. All the weight are approximates as I didn't really pay much attention to them.

Pre-workout Sled: 6 laps with 1.5 plates in 30 min.

Saturday

Cambered bar box squats with blue band over the bar: 325, 365, 415, 455, 505 all X 3 reps
Stiff Leg DB Deads: 90, 110, 125 X 10

Nothing special, but still enough to get sore....kinda sad actually

Sunday: I found an alternative to the chain since it went MIA. I pulled the prowler with 100 lbs on each post for a lap. It has been a while since I have done anything near hard cardio, but it sucked just as bad as the chain. Maybe it will get easier next week as my cardio is going to start increasing.
