S&S Warm Up
1A) Overhead Press: 160 - 5x5
1B) Pull Ups: b/w - 5x8
2A) Close Grip Bench Press: 190 - 3x8
2B) Split Squats: b/w - 3x10 (each leg)
Notes: Today's lifting moved very well. Oh Presses were in a decent groove and the sets of 8 rep Pull Ups between sets felt decent as well. Debated on going weighted pull ups but haven't done Pull Ups in several weeks so want to build some volume before adding weight again. CG Bench was nothing special and added sets of 10 rep Split Squats between sets just to stretch my legs out a bit and get some blood flowing.
Side Note: As I mentioned above I'm not 100 percent sure I am fully recovered from Saturday's heavy TGUs with the 106. Add the quad and hamstring soreness from yesterday and you could say I feel about like the Tin Man from Wizard of Oz with no oil can! S&S Warm Up helped a bit so we can call that the oil can for the day! Also I've been fighting lack of sleep for the past few days with my now 5 month old son fighting ANOTHER ear infection, 5 year old son starting kindegarten and my wife starting her 11th year of teaching!! May have to Deadlift tomorrow or not have a dedicated CG Bench day. I'm considering combining Deadlift and CG Bench on Thursday and hopefully have time to hit some light Squats during that time. Will probably need the rest day tomorrow. Busy week!!
