Light night
Cowboy Bench Method
It was a good night in the gym but I wish they wouldn't advertise and offer a free week on facebook.. The place was packed, at least I only had to wait a few minutes for the rack. I got in some stretching and back extensions waiting. So that wasn't bad.


Front Squats - I held the weight at 120kgs tonight looking at 2 things. I need to watch going too heavy because intensity night is going to need all the recovery I can get. and secondly I have been considering whether or not to taper into my next comp coming up in just over 5 weeks. I'll make the plan after intensity day this week.. Besides 120kgs on a front squat still requires some effort to get in. Certainly not maximal but it takes a push..

OHP- I jumped in between a couple of guys squatting to get my sets in. I didn't warm up at all just grabbed the bar and started. I actually felt better on these than I have in a long time. Maybe I should practice what I preach and cut back on some warm ups. The blood is already pumping from squats so why put in the extra sets,.. These went up great but I am not moving the weight until post comp. I went ahead an did a couple extra reps on my 3rd set.

Barbell rows - hard and mean like they should be. Holding at 90 kgs until post comp..

Over all a good workout and has me thinking about the next few weeks and my lead up to the Oceanias....
