Old Fogies Club: What was your workout today?

[Pebcak]

Squats to 355 lbs x5
195,230,265,300,335,355

Todays pro tip is NEVER trust your loaders, mine were completely useless today. Had a 10 lb on one side instead of a 25, unracked the bar and it just dropped to one side, couldn't figure out what was wrong for a second.

And yes, I'm the idiot loaders in question. Maths hard.

Presses & Rows

Switched to push press as press was starting to tick me off, I've never been super strong at it but never this bad at it either
Push press to 130 lbs x5
70,85,100,110,120,130

I was then supposed to do weighted dips but some fine upstanding citizen was so hot and bothered to steal something that they stole the belt from the gym, left the chain mind you.

BW dips 5x10
Going to have to improvise something for tomorrows weighted pullups.

Tied two pieces of old climbing webbing together to form a loop. Mental note, add a third piece or go buy a longer run, it was a tad on the close side. yoikes thank goodness for compression shorts.

Leg day

I have my own leather weighted dip/chin belt that I bought years ago but the rivets are coming out since my son started using it for serious weight.
I'm considering trying out some pop rivets to repair it but don't want to accidnetally make it into torture device in the process

OHS to 130 lbs x5

5 1/2 reps on OHS if I have to be honest, I was doing the first and got about 1/2 done and knew I was off balance and had to stand up and reset my shoulders.

Back & Biceps

Bench and deadlift doubles today. Bench hurt, like always, but pulls felt pretty good. Barspeed was surprising too.

 

[BigJ]

Weights today: lower body and core focus.
