Sam - Week of 3/18

I figure I can DL ok with the tendon issue. As long as the cervical stenosis doesn't complain, I'll try to start getting more serious. Plus, Emily tells me Mike just missed 495, so I don't want that gap to increase between us...). I'll start with rack pulls because... well... I made some pulling blocks and wanna try them. That's actually the whole rationale for Sunday.

Sunday
Rack pulls - two inches below knee?  3@315, 1@395, 1@485
I'm surprised how easily 485 went considering no straps. I attribute it to volume on SLDL as my grip usually goes out on those first. Hopefully, this will keep up.

Monday
Plate-loaded incline press          10x10 7 sets 45&25, 3 sets 45&10
Push-down leg raises                 3x20

45 min elliptical

I fucking hate cardio, but find I can do it with TV. I did a bunch last week and found I was looking forward to it as I could catch up on my stories. I did "Colony" on Netflix but finished that. I did an ep of "Altered Carbon" on Netflix but Christine suggested I do "A Handmaid's Tale" on Hulu as I've already seen "Altered Carbon." (if you haven't, you should. Best cyberpunk on film, and I'm a big fan of the genre).
