Had another great weekend at a family reunion up in the big town of Euclid MN, about 4.5 hours away. Had a few beers, got terrible sleep in the hotel but somehow or another, PRs are continuing to fall.
Recent PRs busted up:
Chinup intensity - 10 reps
Chinup volume - 35 reps
Close grip bench - 215
Conventional DL volume - 8,260 (375 matrix)
Conventional DL density - 236
What I'm saying is that you need to be flexible (and smart) to continue to break PRs. I had two workouts last week that were interrupted by relatives dropping by. No worries - I broke volume PRs both days. Tired from a big weekend? Break volume and density records in the DL. Tonight was the best conventional has tested in a looong time. Why tonight? I have absolutely no idea. All day long I could just feel I was due because I had been increasing intensity, volume, and density in both the thick bar DL and the Trap Bar (Conventional did not test well at any point in the last few weeks). In fact, I had not gone over 315 for about a month. Tonight I did 345 for 3 singles intermixed with a lot of volume. I was very happy about this, and you will too if you LISTEN to your body and ROLLLLL with it. GM rocks!
