Wednesday and Thursday

Wed 30mins treadmill, Thur off reluctantly, Friday 30 mins stepmill

Wednesday
-Reverse Band deadlift raw. each round was 3 conv and 3 sumo up to 655 then 3 singles at 655-2 conv, 1 sumo
-Close stance squats sets of 8 to 315, 315x20. The hardest part was using a 6 foot Texas bar and getting it back in the rack as my thumbs did not want to come back over the bar to put it in the rack.
-Revese hyper 2x20
-Elevated GHR 3x10
-Seated long ab strap ab criunches on seated row machine 4x15

Thursday-Warm up stole light band overhead rotattor from Smitty, then used dave's creeprer band tricep and flat dumbell press for 20 each and add anothre rotator move laying on the bench after the press where I have the dumbells at chest level and simply go from tucked to flared for 20 reps. Kinda like a lying shoulder raise. 5 rounds of this.

Dumbell flat, Seated shoulder press with chains using a Spud Inc Jump Ring strap hooked to the chain with a handle attached to the snap ring, and a rope tricep/suspendsion strap combo where you are in s incline pushup position and do overhead tricep extension.This was alittle tough. Did rounds of this circuit starting with 20 reps, 18,16,14,12,10,8, 6. Went up in the weight of the dumbells ending with 110 for 6 but kept the chain press at 3 chains per side and just bodyweight on the rope extensions. All this took about a hour or alittle less. Mu shoulders and tris and abs are very unhappy today.

Saturday
Friday night we had our deadlift contest at the gym with a couple of cats pulling over 700. Congrats to Karl at 720 and getting tha monkey off his back. Mike for 500 for getting the monkey off his mini silveback gorilla back. We have a young guy from Ireland who bodybuilds now but used to pL who pulled 750 with just a belt fairly easy. Talking to him is like the movie Snatch plus I was half or two thirds drunk after the show so it may have jsut been me. Other party highlights, garbbing my nephew Dale's ass, talking to Mike's son who when asked what I said, replied "I dont know what he said, I could not understand him" Baggin up 10 cupcakes and a bag of sun chips for the ride home, stopping at hardees adn getting 2 fries and 2 bouble burgers. There was more but those are a few of the good ones.

Thanks to all who attended the party and paticipated in the contest. As usual, it was a ton of fun and I think all had a great time.
