ME Bench Sat 8/05/06

Bike 10 min
Shoulder complex x 2

Flat Bench comp grip raw
1 x ?? x bar
1 x 5 x 135
1 x 5 x 225
1 x 3 x 315 PR
Add 3 boards
1 x 3 x 345
1 x 2 x 365 Had 3 but Mikey said I let my back get loose and had nothing to push from.
1 x m x 385 Mike said he gave me a couple of pounds of help but close doesn't count.
1 x 1 x 385 A grinder. Moosie's workout seems to be providing some endurance. I believe this is either an all time PR or ties an old one from before surgeries.

Incline Stump Presses
1 x 4 x 135 + 100 hanging = 235
2 x 5 x 135 + 100 hanging = 235
1st set I didn't get tight at all. Couldn't find a groove. Figuered it out for the last 2 sets. Was able to use my back much better. Set up is crucial to good lifting.

Push Downs w/A bar
1 x 8 x 210
1 x 8 x 240
2 x 8 x 250
Not sure what to think about the differences in stack resistance. Ah well need to forget about the #'s and worry about the resistence to work against.

Felt good about set up over all. Didn't always get it but was able to recover and get it right eventually. Decent workout. Am making progress and that feels good.

Feeling pretty good about the meet in Sept. Still planning on lifting raw and opening with 150kg. I understand it is the same day as the Utah, Utah State game. I hope it is true that it is a 6 pm kick off. Mikey is a USU alum. I will try not to hold that against him.

The world is calling for a mid east cease fire. Did they learn nothing from the fall of the USSR? As soon as the communist umbrella failled all of the little factions that head been kept quiet, woke up and started fighting each other again. Hezbollah may temporarily stop shooting but they want Israel to be blown off of the map. For the record others of that ilk also want the US gone as well. We need to wake up and smell the coffee.

Moosie was out with his son on an overnite scout hike last night. Too funny thinking about him trying to get a good night sleep in a sleeping bag on the ground. The last time I checked Moosie was 6'4" and weighed 310#. Hope he's ok.

Things to see, people to do.

God Bless
