Keep the PRs coming

Thur workout: DL volume PR 4,485/regular grip pullup volume PR: 26 reps/1arm swings 24K density PR 80 reps in 4.5mn. Sat workout: KB Press volume PR 2904 in 10 minutes. Used the 20K for 66. Lying tricep (BB) 65x5 baseline PR, volume of 1,225, density of 153 (8mn). DSP gripper PRs 2415 in 5mn/density 483. Decided to do pistol work tomorrow, I want to focus on that.


As I stated in my last post, it is not HARD to break PRs. You have a goal every single workout and you just "Do it". It really is a great feeling to know that you are getting better every single day. "Get your reps in" is good advice, but you need to know how many and how fast you did it (in perfect form of course). Deadlift for instance, my volume PR is 4485. How can I not improve when I get to 5,000 or more? Your body responds to stress by laying down tissue - and this is noted in me gaining 5 pounds "mysteriously" since the cert three weeks ago. As Frankie said, the only limiting factor is TIME.....who knows where I'll be by year-end? Great stuff!
