Weekend
Walked Dog both days Sunday did some vertical jumps and plyo-pushups Monday - 19 days until I step on stage Squat 280x5, 3 sets 245x5, 2 sets Bench with Chains (+50 pounds) 145x5, 6 sets - final 3 sets with fat gripz superset with Front Lever Holds * Normally, I do regular bench press on Monday, but shoulder was hurting from some idiotic plyo pushups I did this weekend. So I went with the chains since it takes off some pressure on the shoulder. Triset: 4 rounds (with 5th set of Dips) A) Ring Dips - BWx7 B) Inverted Row on Rings - BWx4, isometric hold for 4 seconds on last rep C) Bench 145 (+5) x 1 - using fat gripz D) Vertical Jump * Squat is just wonderful right now; depth is there, body/form is tight, speed out of the hole is good and I am finishing really strong. ------ Diet update Still taking in almost 3k calories and nearly 300 grams of carbs, poor me, dieting is hard, lol. Weight is exactly on track at 175.9 this week.

Quote:
----- 12 days out posing video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnID50BWPv8 You can see some glute/hamstring detail. It should look even better after a drop some water from my legs during peak week. Diet Update: Bodyweight average was 174.7 this week, right on target. Still downing 3k calories and nearly 300g carbs!
