Bench 1/31/12

Bench (shirted):
95 x 3 board, 2 board (warmup)
105 x 1 (no commands)
105 x 1 (just made this one)
115 x f (shirt not down enough...=choking)
115 x f (belted but that made it way too tight)
Personal problems. Also worked up to my 1st attempt in warm-ups so that might have been part of the problem.

Pause bench:
65 x 3 x 4

Cable Triceps, Shrugs
Shoulder is doing a lot better but still a bit eh, so laying off of it until the meet.

Deadlift 1/30/12

Deadlift (suited):
245 x 1
265 x f
265 x f
Couldn't lock either of those out, likely for stupid breathing reasons and not for strength. Will fix that at the meet.

Rack Pulls:
275 x 3 x 5
Failed a handful of these (4 or so) not to locking out, but just getting caught on my thighs and wussing out -_-.

GHRs, Banded Hamstring Curls, Glute Thrusts

Deadlift Assist. 1/26/12

Speed pulls (suited):
135 (1 purple band) x 3 (easy but seems harder than raw)
185 (1 purple band) x 3 (couldn't lock any of these out)
135 (2 purple bands) x 3 (couldn't lock any of these out either)
135 (1 purple band) x 3 x 2

105 x 2 board, 1 board, 1 board (I think, can't remember this part of my workout to the end)
105 x chest (nope), chest (nope), chest (yay, I didn't feel this at all)
105 x chest (nope), chest (yay) (I think that was it)

Cable triceps
Shoulder is messed so nothing else today; GP appt. soon.

Squat 1/23/12

Squat (suited):
185 x f,f,f (I didn't sit back on these and kept stumbling forward)
185 x 3 (almost depth)
205 x 1, f (again, need to sit back)
225 x 1 (not deep enough, but sat back at least)
185 x 3
Triples obviously didn't happen today, but I'm getting more used to the suit. It feels like nothing will ever get me used to the knee wraps though -_-

Band-lightened Squat
185 x 3
195 x 3
215 x 3
Purple bands.

Safety Squat Bar Pause Squats
bar x 3

Deadlift 1/19/12

Deadlift (suited):
245 x 1 x 3
255 x 1 x 2 (last one hitched...getting stuck on my thighs)
I'm having a hard time getting down in the suit so all of these singles were pulled off of 35 plates. Right shoulder is messed so couldn't do rack pulls.

Banded Hyperextensions, GHRs, Glute Thrusts

Squat 1/16/12

Squat (suited):
155 x 5
165 x 5
175 x 5 (B+ knees)
All of these were low but mostly not at depth (did hit depth at the end of the second set). 175 (raw 1 RM) was so painful that I couldn't concentrate on anything but getting through it so I wasn't paying attention to sinking it, but overall the weight felt easy.

185 x 3
195 x 3
205 x 3
215 x 3

Pause squats:
135 x 3

105 x 3
115 x 3
125 x 3

95 x 3 (3, 2, 2 board)
100 x 3 (3, 3, 2 board, last one really solid)

I have the gnarliest/awesome-ist welts from the shirt. Pulling the bar down is really difficult but once it's down it pops back up like nothing...1 plate bench here I come :D

Tried on the Inzer Max DL. Was in my room so no weight to test but there was definitely resistance when I went down, so I'll see if it treats me better than the metal suit.
