Good work guy's:thumb: My rest day consisted of making my back sore putting my sled back together. F-me I hate being bent over on these little suckers...

Are you doing the Open? 15.1 is going to be announced in 75 minutes
No. I don't enter the open. I don't need to spend $20 to confirm I am not in the top 80 in my region. :roflmao:
I'm not against it. The only thing I don't like about it is that I didn't come up with a way to get that many people to pay for it. The participation levels blow me away.
I didn't either I did do the workout today really scaled back to make sure I didn't **** myself up again
It felt like it lol
I have read a little on test nation. In fact the picture of the guy (third one from the bottom, 5 reasons your program isn't working article) is the owner of Crossfit Fairbanks Kane Green, he front squats over 400 pounds:thumb:
Front Squats
He is strong as h*ll. I also believe they have a guy that deadlifts 639, state record in the 231 class IIRC. It's not your typical Crossfit box, there legit strength oriented.They have a Youtube channel I will post a couple of his PR's when I get home tonight.
Pretty good power for an Olympic lifter:thumb:

Bench last night
240x3x10
240x8
240x3 paused ouch
back acc stuff...
100x4x3 weighted dips. They had been hurting my hand so I stopped doing them for awhile... So far so good, I will ease back into more reps.
This workout was much harder than I thought it should be. The benching was fine, other than no spotter on the last set and I pussed out. All the acc. stuff felt wicked heavy, long day at work I guess.

That's some #s on dips.. I thought 45 was a good # I guess I'm gonna have to step up my game. Next week I'm back to smashing the gym!

Thanks Bud. Go easy on them as you can injure your hands pretty easily... I had what felt like a deep bone bruise in my right palm for a long time and had to stop doing them that heavy...
Just ordered the Rouge 13 mm single prong power lifting belt! I'm very excited as I never use a belt. I've pulled 405 with no belt and do mid to high 300 pound range dead with no belt all the time. So I'm excited to see what this thing will do for me
Got some sort of shitty cold going on, but, tackled deads today
4x4x425
2x485
2x545
4x425
All in all, success.
545x2 F*ck yea!

Just bought an extra 200lbs of bumper plates and I'm ordering a rouge bar. Garage gym will be nice
I've never looked into any weights for Home, been thinking about it.. What's average cost per pound?
