Joe Cappellino 9/10, 9/11, 9/13 and 9/15

This week was definetely going to be approached in a way where I could get some recovery in from the 3 week gear cycle I did for squat where I was also squatting 4x per week

I am taking out the 4th day… usually thursday, from here on in.  Sunday squats will be taken out as well when we get close to the meet.  I didnt really hit any heavy lifts this week so hopefully ill feel better next week.

WRAPPING LUIS… very tiring and I count that as work.

Well I knew my bench was shit so I did some speed work and lockout work like back in the old days at xaverian.

Basically keeping heavy off the chest out of the equation.
