Great Board work man! What shirt are you using? How is the fit so far? Doing the 505X3 with the loose fit is darn good!

am using a karins open back DD. toying with the idea of getting a metal bash shirt for this meet, but probably won't. like my denim too much. the 4 board stuff was just playing around at the end. usually do a lot better. Thanks chad

log updated. hope everyone had a great week. just got back from tennessee visiting family up near oak ridge and had a great time. as for this mornings workout, was ok with it. biggest thing I found out is that I am more comfortable in the titan shirt as this point with nationals so close and not going to keep switching shirts. sticking with the katana. anyway, have a great weekend. chad

ME bench day (3/16/07) 1 board w/shirt: 475x1 (denim), 475x2, 480x2-3almost (switched to titan katana on last two sets) raw 4 board press: 425x3x3 kettlebell work at home during the day
Okay, let me get this straight. "475 felt good, I think I'll do it TWICE." "475x2 felt good, think I'll do 480 3 times." "Darn, only got two."
INCREDIBLE!
Have a great weekend!
God BLess.

Yessiree, meet day is rapidly approaching!
That's some strong JM presses after all that shoulder work! Okay okay, it's different exercise, but hey, the triceps DO get used and abused during all those presses! Nice work Chad!
God BLess!

Thanks. probably too light on the tri work. My neck is really feeling sore today, so I guess the shoulder work is working. got three more workouts till the meet. new shirt should be here tomorrow for the wed. ME workout. hopefully i will be able to work with it quickly and not have to send it back to resize. If so, then will go with the katana and kick butt. Have a great day. chad

Without a doubt you are a technician of the shirt. If anyone can get used to a shirt in 3 workouts it would be you.

we will see. todays ME work should tell me alot about what I should be able to open with. doing doubles w/shirt and no boards. trying to touch everything. think this has been my weakness going into meets, a crapshoot with openers. anyway, looking to open with something like 475 or 480, then go straight to 500, then take a shot at the aapf submasters national record on the third and maybe the world record on a 4th attempt. We will see. chad
