I'm seriously man haha! EM is getting a little too handy with the old photoshop I think..............

6/23/10 BAD
Bench
1x5x135
1x5x185
1x1x225 (paused felt heavy!)
1x0x245 (paused)
1x1x235 (paused)
1x2x225 (FAILED 3RD)

DB ROW
3x10xheaviest db

Paused banded cgbp
3x5x135 +doubled bands

HUGE strength loss

PRE backpacking: 2x5x225 bench
post backpacking: 1x2x225 FUCK

on 1/10/10 I could only do 225x3, so basically I lost 5 months of strength on bench in one week????? Plus that pre-backpacking number was already a strength loss..........

The break should do you good anyway, you were haulin ass and bound to freeze up. Now you'll just take a week or two to get your numbers up and probably make fresh gains.

T-Block I just searched your log all the way down to page 63 and could not find your CGBP video, anyway you could tell me what page to check out?

BTW, you said you lost five lbs. from backpacking, 5 lbs. in a few days is alot man. Your body is probably still gassed from that trip.

Here's my youtube channel man:

And here's a good video:

YouTube - 245x1 Paused Close Grip bench press

I like that grip. I just weighed myself today and I am 188.6 without clothes, that is super light for me And today is my online bench competition. ANY IDEA WHAT NUMBERS I SHOULD SHOOT FOR? Originally I was going for :
235x1
255x1
275x1

But there's no way I can do that now, so I am thinking:
225x1
235x1
245x1

I dont even know about 245x1 though, thoughts? I failed it a few days ago

 

[ExtraMile]

i would do something like 200 as your opener, then hit 235 for your second attempt and see how it feels and go from there

So it looks like your putting your thumbs where the rough part of the bar turns into the smooth. Whereas I put my pinkys at that part so my grip is about 5 inches closer, I'll change it up so my middle finger is at the part where the smooth meets rough. I just want to make sure I'm hitting my tris enough.

Thanks man! I missed this though, but it still went well for my strength loss. I'm gaining back quick.

Comments: Deadlifts not good, I've lost 25-30 pounds on bench and probably 50 pounds on my deadlift. After todays bench comp though I am happpy because I think I will gain it back quick Weirdest thing: MY grip was actually STRONGER than before. I was like 1 mm from closing the 250 in my right hand. Also I've never gotten 42 solid reps on the 150. That made me feel better lol
