Daily “Selfie” – This is another old school Notre Dame T-shirt that I pulled. I can’t even remember the last time I wore this.  It is also only and XL and isn’t too tight around the belly anymore. #LoseTheBelly. BTW, traps are starting to look good through clothes.

Monday – Chest/Arms

Well, it was supposed to be a deload day at 50% volume and 90% 1RM intensity. Since we have the Lift-a-thon coming up in a couple days and I have no idea where my maxes are currently, I  thought I would train a little differently than programed.  Probably shouldn’t have.

Bench Press – 45×10, 135×10, 225×5, 275×1, 315×1, 335×1 (I think I could have gone heavier, but I was lifting alone so no spotter and didn’t want to hurt myself.)

EZ Curls – 95x4x8 (used the Arm Blaster as well)

Daily “Selfie” – This is one of my old school Notre Dame shirts.  Again, like a previous post, one of the most storied schools in U.S. history.  Every time I head into the Heavy Hammer Gym I have to hit the Play Like A Champion sign.  It reminds me that in order to succeed and be a champion I have to train like a champion.  Also pictured, my trusty SBD Elbow Sleeves and Stiff, 1m Wrist Wraps.  2015-12-14-05.54.03.jpg.jpeg

Thursday – Hamstrings/Back

Sumo Deadlift – 300x4x8

Stiff Leg Deadlift – 175x4x8

Seated Row – 75x4x8

Barbell Shrug – 175x4x8

MAS Wrestling – did a little MAS Wrestling at school with the Comet Strength Club I started.  Worked on some grip and technique.

Daily “Selfie” – This is in support of my favorite team of all time…the Notre Dame Fighting Irish! Probably one of the best and most storied football teams and schools in American history.  To all all the “haters” out there, (you know who you are *cough, cough ISU sucks cough, cough*) just stop being jealous and get over it.2015-12-04-18.31.18.jpg.jpeg
