Here's a recap of my last couple weeks.

A couple weeks ago the only thing that really happened is I pulled 475 for 10. I felt pretty good about that because I have been squatting right before I pull and I squatted I think 435 for a couple.

That was Thanksgiving week.

Then I deloaded.

Last week I squatted 395 for 5.

Pulled 425 for 5, I'm going to blame this shitty day on a cold I've had for about a week.

I benched and did my sets up to 295 for 5 then decided to do some singles. I loaded up 335 and smoked it. Then had my wife spot me at 365 and completely fucked my rhythm up since I have been lifting without a lift off or spot and bombed. I went down to 350 and got it pretty easily with no lift off or spot. That should help my ego for a couple weeks at least. Now if I could squat over 500 raw with just a belt I would fell pretty decent.

Sunday I did strongman stuff at Jobe's Steel Jungle.

Started off with incline log. Worked up to 280, which I got 9 reps. I feel pretty good about that. The most I had even picked up before was 250, and did that for 12 I think.

Then we did some 18" DL. I worked up to a pretty solid single at 630.

Next was farmers holds, again something I had never done. I did 240 per hand and held it for something like 1 minute and 3 second. My hands feel arthritic today and I can give these credit for that.

I did a set of keg loads next. 200-290 series to 52". I did this in 22.?? seconds. Not too bad I don't think.

I did a couple singles of log press next and between my body just being completely drained and my grip being completely gone these didn't go so well.

I think I did a single at 200 and went to 240 and figured out I need to stay lighter and work on my clean.

Did some battling ropes and couple sets of fallouts and went home.
