One Lift At A Time

Blog dedicated to powerlifting and anything else I find interesting.

“If you truly expect to realize your dreams, abandon the need for blanket approval. If conforming to everyone’s expectations is the number one goal, you have sacrificed your uniqueness, and therefore your excellence.” - Hope Solo


"I don't care if you're black, white, straight, bisexual, gay, lesbian, short, tall, fat, skinny, rich or poor. If you're nice to me, I'll be nice to you. Simple as that." - Eminem


Bench Wednesday

Incline Dumbbell Press.

Isolateral Low Row (Hammer Strength)
5x9@160

Isolateral Lat Pulldown (Hammer Strength)
5x9@110

Chin-Up
4x5

Cable Triceps Ext (superset with) Straight Arm Pulldown
3x12@30

Abs..

Will probably do the pin presses tomorrow.

Monday Squats: 5@220, 4@230, 3@240, 2@260, and 270. Today was good day, I had been kinda worried about it all weekend because I had not gone this heavy in a while but it was all good, thank God for everything. My teammates @powerlifter42 @belizianintellect were awesome especially @bullusapl for the spot and encouragement. Remember, don’t just survive, thrive in it.
