Notes: Changing things up a bit with the competition about 2 months away.  Lightened the load on the mat pulls and using primarily bumper plates so that I can load up the car deadlift simulator in between sets. Gives the pull a slightly different feel with the weights further out.  Light bodyweight is still hamstrining me a little, but it's building back up.  Don't have the feel on the car deadlift yet, but it'll come back quick.

Still a little sick, and having the bar on my throat for front squats was something else.  Right before the topset of 315, a noise came out of my throat that I had never heard before.   Like I had been smoking 4 packs a day for a few hundred years.

Woke up at 191.4.  Had my normal cheat meal yesterday.


PM WORKOUT

1 hour lawn mowing/weed eating while wearing 45lb vest
1x50 BW dips
1x15 NG chins

Notes: Just engaging in Operation "Get Volume Everywhere".  I've still been doing my daily pressing and pulling, just haven't been logging it.  Now that I'm home, I'm doing dips instead of push ups.  The landscaping work wasn't bad with the vest on, but it's weird how fatigue just sorta creeps up on you with it.

Been looking at weight gainers again, but honestly don't think I'll have any issues putting on weight.  Just need to eat like an adult.
