CFFB 030812

ASWOD

3x5 bench @ 145

DWOD

Complete:
6 x 3 Squats @ 90% of 5 RM
*Rest 45 seconds between sets
then...
Sprint
6 x 50 yards
*Rest 45 seconds between sprints

Squatted 215#. Got 4 sets. Rest periods went by soooo fast. I've never ran in such a retarded fashion as today. Sprints were a great kind of painful. Got my head talked off by an old 50-something bodybuilder. I disagreed completely with nearly everything he said. Some highlights:

"You need gloves"
"Women hate it when you put your callused hands down their pants"
"It doesn't matter how much you can lift, we're all here just to look good for women"
"You should focus on building an ass big enough to hold up a tight pair of jeans with no belt"
"Don't be intimidated by these big guys, you're not competing against them"

I need to up my bench so dumbasses don't think it's my first rodeo and offer their wealth of ignorant knowledge repeatedly.

  1. Oh and for bench, did you watch the "so you think you can bench" tutorials? If not they're a great resource. I think I mentioned this before, but switching to a powerlifing technique immediately upped my bench by like 10%

  3. i havent seen those videos, i'll check them out. though i have put a lot of effort into learning powerlifting technique for bench, CFJ has some good vids.

    im now convinced that eating shittons is the most important thing for recovery. my PRs stopped dead once i started cutting back and trying to lose excess weight, which probably came from eating some junk on top of good paleo+dairy food. why do i have to love chocolate so much....sigh
