Pretty much had it up to here with loose briefs since they aren’t doing shit to help my lifting, so after Sunday’s squat session I found a place to drop them off and am taking care of it. The weight is light but the pop is non existent with the briefs. I won’t feel comfortable or safe (with my hips and back) if I don’t get them fitted right… so next week they should be ready to go so I can actually get some use from them instead of feeling like I am wearing jeans.

Screwed up putting the shirt on, couldn’t fix it right and due to me sweating like a freak I was sliding on the bench. Shit session so I just ended it before I either got hurt or slid off the bench.

** Floor Press **
– 225.0 lbs x 5 reps
– 275.0 lbs x 5 reps

I need more tricep strength so I added in floor pressing as the second lift instead of DB work.

The first two days didn’t really shock the world but that happens… I am just glad today is a day of rest and I am enjoying the hell out of that one.

BTW, be sure to check out the new shirts we have for sale in the store.

Lift like a champ, look like a winner.
