Squat 9-4-12

I was still sore as hell from Sunday, but I wanted to work up to a heavy single to figure out where I will open at for the powerlifting meet I am doing.

Squat
135
225
315
405
455
495
545 x 1

All of these felt pretty solid.  I think I will probably open somewhere right around 500 and try to hit 560-570.

Good Mornings
135 x 10
185 x 10
185 x 12

Hamstring Curl

Hanging leg raises

Grippers

Prowler - these were all done at a walk

Events 9-2-12

We ended up training at 5 because Jesse's brother was in town so he couldn't train until later.  It actually worked out better for me and I felt better than I usually do training in the mornings.

Monster DB
100 x 5 each arm
100 x 3 each arm
100 x 1 each arm

Axle
worked up to 250 x 15

Yoke

450 x 60'
540 x 60'
690 x 60'

I am terrible at this.

Car Deadlift

We just plate loaded my car deadlift frame, so I am not totally sure about the weight, but I would guess empty it was somewhere between 225 and 250 in our hands.

Frame + 200 x a couple
Frame + 400 x 15
Frame + 490 x 3
Frame + 580 x 1

All of these felt pretty good.  I used my suit on all sets.  I have no idea what these weights would be comparable to with a car, but the set with 400 felt similar to most car deadlifts I have done in competitions.

Keg Load

Troy said he wanted to do 26 reps of something for his 26th birthday, so this was it.
We used a 250 keg, I ended up doing 30 reps.

After all that we ate some cake.  Overall this was a very good workout.
