05 Jun Brian Carroll Week 3 Offseason

We have a BRAND new SHOP – it’s very easy to use! Check it out!

Big thanks to CaptainJacked.com and Inzernet.com for supporting TeamPRS and PowerRackStrength.com!

Getting back to a more normal training block after pretty much doing at best, a fluff and buff over the last 3 months. No meets planned at this time. I will push an offseason phase for the next month then make some decisions as things slow down for me in some aspects.

No bar on back for 3 mo. New log is up!

Nice to get back under the bar this week and granted, it was at the end of the session but benching felt awful. It will come back around but it’s a long way off, for sure. I got super sore from this session, not surprisingly.

Saturday 6.3.17

Normal Warm-up as always

Squat:
bar
135×3 – 3 sets to get the groove back
225×3 – 3 sets same
315×1 – few singles. Long way from home…

One leg GM: 3×10 per side
Stir the pot: 3×20
Suitcase carry: 200 yards

SMOKED. This day had me wobbly even before I left the gym. Crazy to think about but if you don’t use it, you lose it. It’s been nice focusing on other things for a bit but I need to get back to training and it being an staple to helping keep me balanced and stable.
Not too incredible sore at this point BUT, I was quite sore Sat evening and Sunday, but pretty good now.

It’s more getting back in shape and knocking rust off. As you can see, I’m tight in areas that I shouldn’t be and loose in others.

Better updates to come soon!

Great album to check out for easy listening:
