Monday

Cues to remember and yell out to people as they bench: Big air! Push through your heels! Stay tight! Big air! Squeeze! Big air!

Training:
Bench press 3x5
30 body rows with weight added
Rest 5 minutes
100 squat thrusts
ASAP


I have a special place in my heart for throwers

Favre's corner:
Working up to 95% for reps is always good fun, especially when it feels smooth and fairly fast. This brings up a point that eludes most people and it's the fact that you cannot lift a heavy slowly. Now if its a heavy lift i.e 90% and higher, then it will look slow. However the amount of force being generated is huge and the human body is working to move said weight as fast as possible. This is why power is important along with strength development. Muscle is also important so I did a big number of reps to blow up my upper body. Finished of with a vomit inducing barbell complex that, thank the lord, will not be done the rest of this cycle.





All pure gold
