20 Oct Brian Carroll – Back in the SDP with video!

Great picture while in SD (beautiful city/weather) with some awesome people!

Now that I have a few Monday & Saturday’s at home, I’m going to run a 3-week mini-cycle until I go out of town for Exos in PHX, early November. You can still register for the event at EXOS to see me and other great speakers!

Another thing: Since it’s pretty repetitive and boring, I won’t be logging my squat/DL assistance day nor fluff & buff for a bit until I change it up.

Week 1, day 2 – bench

Normal warm-up every single training session, whether I feel like it or not.

Floor press:
top set of 345×3 – RPE 7

SDP break-in process:
Sets off the 5, 4 and 3 (not the first week this shirt has been worn)
top set of 595×3 – 3bd

Incline DB press: 3×10
Flat DB press: 3×10
DB skulls: 3×15
Bench dip: 3×15
Side planks: a few

Finally, 315 doesn’t feel like 615. It’s coming back, but it’s taking longer than expected.

I’ve had Stan wear my new SDP a couple of times, so I got in it (it’s loose) and worked down some boards. First time in the shirt in a long time!

I’ll be working up a little bit with doubles this week and I’m looking forward to it!
