as gay as it sounds, i'm happy with whatever she wants. I consider her one of my best friends, and wouldn't want to ruin it by doing something stupid. She would have to make the first move/hint...

I'm just looking forward to the trip as a chance to kick it, and watch some baseball and eat some fresh seafood off the coast!

Well I can certainly say that you will not be eating any fish tacos with this attitude.

well, SHE suggested the trip. Thing is, we've gone to like chicago before, so it may not be anything. never for an extended period of time though.

matt: you suck! ha!

manny: i knew i set myself up when i was typing that. i wondered who would catch it first...

Woke up, back sort of stiff today from squats a few days ago. Figured i'd hit the gym anyway, and get some pulls and cleans in. Had to make it a quick workout b/c i had to hit class up an hour and a half after the time i hit the gym

Log Cleans:
154x1
170x1 (just wanted to work up to the weight i was going to use on my next press workout)

Trap Bar Deadlifts:
255x3
345x1
435x1
450x1 (easy!)
450x2

i really don't know what i was thinking on the 450 pull. I just pulled one and stopped. I should have tried for 2-3 reps. Mr. Lynch said i would have gotten 2-3 with how easy the first went up.

I'm happy, but now the quest for 10 reps on 450 comes. I'm hoping to get 4 or so next workout. I have a video of the 450 single, but i'm at school, and my camera's at home, so i'll upload later after i get off work.

i just realized that i hit my deadlift goal for May 4th already, almost 1 month early!

I would have never thought that my deadlift would go up as quickly as it has!

I don't have to work tomorrow, so i may hit the gym, and get an overhead workout in? Either that, or i'll hit some events tomorrow, and then hit overhead on saturday?

Either way, i need to hit yoke this week! I need to start feeling the weight on my back again, even if it's only for short runs!

Good job on the 450! What's your bar pull sitting at nowadays?

Steve: thanks man. Not sure for straight bar, but 450 is my best pull so far. I think i'm good for more, but i'm going to focus on reps now with 450 since that's the contest weight.

Jill: Thanks! I know.. i think i'll work on getting the rest of my goals in line now!

Kevin: it should be done in a second...

Tina: Thanks! 500 soon, 450x10 next! hahahaha

haha! there's no squat in the comp though, that's why the squatting has taken a backseat.

I plan on really pushing up my squats after july though. There's no reason why i shouldn't be front squatting over 200, and back squatting over 3

It doesn't matter, just go for more next week

Nice pull, it did look easy, 4+ reps next week sounds good!

Okay technically you have pulled more than me now, fuck! with a trap bar though(Notice how I said have pulled, and not can pull =P)

ha! i would be pulling with a straight bar if it was what was in the competition though. i'm excited for the competition, but also excited to have a competition under my belt so i can start training to improve where i'm weak.

What's your plan after this competition? Another strongman comp? a PL comp?

i plan on doing more SM comps, or maybe an oly competition if i can get comfortable with the lifts.

the thing with SM comps is that they are mostly in the summer, so by the time i'm done with the july one, i probably won't enter one until next year, so if i do oly comps, i can keep my motivation up.

A PLing comp isn't out of the realm of possibility either...

Ive been working on getting more jacked so I havent been squatting as much as Id like, but when I reach some body comp goals, Im going to aggressively go after at 400 FS.

What's your best FS?

Any idea how you're going to set up your training for this?

170kg is my best single, 150 is a routine single for me. So Id need about 11kg on that.

As for training, Im going squat very often.
