Tuesday 9/17 Started with pause squats with ben. Did 6 doubles of 396 with no belt and some real long pauses. Incline bench 286 for 2 sets of 5, 331 for 3 sets of 5. Deadlift… I finally added my belt in but suprisingly I had the least explosiveness so far.  Weight is going up though so I know the belt will come in handy.  611 for 5 singles. DB rows… sets of 25 with Read More

Tuesday 9/3 Peach is back to school and titty is still no where near coming back to the gym, so Ben and I basically have all of baystate to ourselves.  Honestly, peach is annoying and the workouts seem to be alot better without him.  Also Ben seems in a much better mood since peach is gone. Its good to have Ben back as a lifting partner (I was lifting on the main rack while peach Read More

I crushed the last Read More
