Time to dust off the 35. Might buy a harness when I hit a full plate because that just seems like it's going to be a pain in the ass.

Re: Not to change the Subject but
Right leg felt like it was going to pop out of my hip all weekend. Just walking along and have a sudden pain. Cool new thing to mess with me.

Haha I sort of played with banded leg extensions Friday and must have gone overboard because my legs were sore until last night and setting up for bench today was painful because my left quad was super tight. In the fourth set it hurt enough I had stand up after laying back twice before I could start.

Re: Not to change the Subject but
Yeah sort of, I put a mini band on a rack upright and walk forward with the band on my forehead till I feel it pull me back. I straighten up and turn my head left and right for a 30 count. 15 a side.
Saw it on Josh Bryant's youtube.
If I get a harness I'll probably hook it up to my pulley.

Re: Not to change the Subject but
BB row
205*8*5
Ezbar LTE
80*9,10,9
Ezbar Curls
65*9,10,10
Probably going to switch BB Rows and LTEs out for something lower stress either next week or the week after.
I actually ordered a neck harness Thursday from elitefts. Should be here Monday or Tuesday. So I'm going to skip neck stuff today and wait for my new toy.
I'm actually kind of worried it won't fit. I have a 24.75" head and wear a XXL hat.

I tried some OG barbell hack squats. The ones where your heels come up and the bar and 95 worked but 135 was weird not heavy just I had a hard time unlocking to actually squat. When I finally did the bar slipped under me and on the way up caught my butt tipping me over forward.

Re: Not to change the Subject but
Pulldowns
160*12,9,7
Cable Triceps Pushdown
90*9
Seated Hammer Curls
50*4
Feeling a bit beat up from yesterday which kind of killed today. I think I might make the next three weeks extra days lighter recovery stuff. Maybe some band stuff drop the curl weight and do like easy sets of 15-20.
Neck circuit
Band Rotation *30
Curls 25*20
Side curls 25*15
Extension 25*20
Was feeling crap so I dropped to one circuit with 25.
Another reasoning is I got the harness and had to figure it out. The normal curls are easier done with just holding a plate and laying back. It was really awkward to lean back enough to not have the plate drag up and down my back. Side curls and extensions are much better with a harness. With side curls I always had the plate pressing on my temple which is uncomfortable. Saturday I'm going to try with pulleys.
I'm going be honest I have no idea what neck exercises are actually called and I don't care.
As for the harness. I got the normal Elitefts one and it's just big enough, I have about an inch and a half of velcro overlap. It has a little padding which is nice. Looks well sown and the chromed chain looks decent not that painted on crap. Only one small complaint. The chain is permanently attached to one side so if you want to do something on one side you have to turn the harness around but that also means you'll never lose the chain so it's a wash. Overall I'm happy with it.

Re: Not to change the Subject but
I found it hard to get past always scraping my ankles with the bar knurling. Gave up on these after about two weeks, but they were fun to try.James wrote: ↑Tue Apr 04, 2023 10:01 amI tried some OG barbell hack squats.

ha yeah i can see that being a deal breaker.
2ct Pause Squat
330*1
330*3
315*3
Well that went great. Except now my left knee is being disagreeable.
Also I got a bottle of Zone Dry. The first hit for the 3@9 set felt like something grabbed the back of my head and tried pulling my scalp off. Think I'll hold off on using it again till test week. Or at lest until I get bored. A+ would probably go blind sniffing too close.

Re: Not to change the Subject but
Just some light stuff. Knee is almost completely better.
DB Row
50*20*3
Band press downs w Monster minis
*20*2
Fat man dips. Threw two bands over my pullup bar at shoulder width and pressed them down doubled. Tried with light bands but that wasn't happening. Maybe if I choked them on the bar and sat down might do that next time.
Neck Circuit 35lbs x2
Turns out if a neck harness isn't on a low pulley it'll just pop off. Physics are bullshit. So no pulley neck stuff until I figure a way to set up a low pulley with less hassle.

Took overhead out a couple weeks ago because it was bothering my shoulder. Tried again after incline didn't mess with it. 95*8 hurt a little but widening my grip out to pinkys on the rings stopped that.
