Deadlifts: 2 warmup sets, 2x8 @ 255lbs, 2x5 @ 335lbs
Pendlay rows: 1x12 @ 65lbs, 2x10 @ 85lbs, 1x8 @ 95lbs
Good mornings: 2x10 @ 115lbs, 1x8 @ 135lbs
Wide-grip pullups: 3x5 BW+25lbs where I'd do a 4-5sec lower, unhook the weighted belt and go to failure with BW.
Close grip pullups: 2x8
Wide-grip pulldowns: 2x10 @ 140lbs, really focusing on retracting scapula and stretching my lats. Bonus of proper motion is less delt strain so I don't scream in pain!

A few deltoid exercises with very little weight. I'm trying to rehab an impingement/tendon strain in my left shoulder so I can't do much on chest days. I've started incorporating lightweight shoulder work into most training days just to get circulation and stretching on that area.

There's squat form as requested from about a year ago, lol. I recorded a warm up set for this thread but never got around to posting it. It's hard to tell proper knee/foot pathing since there's not a rear view as well but you can tell I don't fucking quarter squat like a pussy. I walk the bar back way too far from the rack but considering it's only 215 it's not a big deal. I had to readjust chest/shoulder tightness after 2nd rep so I probably should have reracked for that. Again, warmup set. I've been working on my hip flexors to make sure I'm able to keep form coming up from the pocket as well.

So a few months ago I was trying out a lift called belt squats (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SliuV24IqyU) and using my gym's weight belt. It was great for working on the low explosive part of a squat with a sore back since you weren't loading your spine at all. I did it for a couple sessions and wanted to go up in weight. It's not really made for 3 plates but I started putting 3 on anyways. I ended up rigging the belt with 155lbs (3 45s, 2 10s) and it was astronomically uncomfortable, not because of the weight distribution but because of the short chain, width of the loaded plates and comfortable squatting stance (aka huge ass rubber coated iron plates mere centimeters from pinching my nuts off). I was able to widen my stance but after a few reps I got this really bad pulling feeling on my groin. It felt like something was popping out of my inguinal canal. Finished the lift, racked the weights and it felt fine from there. I haven't touched the belted squats since and my normal squats and deadlifts have felt fine except for my chronic rotator cuff injury (which is on the mend, yay).

Over the last few weeks that inguinal area has been asymmetrically puffy when I've been standing for awhile and I can feel a mass when I press on it. Not one to take groin swelling lightly (lol sex jokes inc), I have an appointment with my physician on Wednesday. It's more than likely a hernia and I'll need some quick surgery to take care of it. I honestly don't know how long hernia repair will put me out of lifting but I haven't touched a barbell since last week cause I'm scared shitless of the thing (despite no real pain while lifting). The thing disappears when I lay down so it lends even more credence to the hernia theory.


ANYWAYS, when/if I have surgery and I'm ready to get back to full capacity, I'll be starting a round of Madcows. It's hard to say if I'll be able to complete those numbers considering I won't have trained for a few weeks but the programming below is based on my current 5RMs of those lifts.

No, it hasn't. It seems like it would hurt a lot though.

Oh yeah, I had laproscopic surgery to repair a bilaterial inguinal hernia and umbilical hernia back in March. There be mesh in me groin, yarrrr.

I'm back up to deadlifting 2x body weight and squatting 265 for reps. I didn't do that spreadsheet I posted earlier but I did a couple months of 5x5s to slowly progress back into heavier weights.

I'm playing around with olympic lifts as well. My snatch is awful (swing the weight out) but my clean and jerk is pretty solid. I need some Olympic shoes though.

Time to get rid of the winter beer fat and get them summer honeys. Studying all hours of the day, commuting and working weekends means there's literally zero motivation to go to the gym but I'll friggin' do it.

Fewer IPAs, more squats.

Also, I haven't gained weight, I just got some fat around the stomach.

Oh snap where did you get a Madcow spreadsheet that automatically rounds? Also how is your press so close to your bench numbers?

13 hour shifts, savings from getting the majority of my undergrad covered with scholarships and working/being an RA. I'm also living with my parents until I can work full time again or move for med school.

i was living completely independently right now I would need student loans.

Just got the Madcow's off Stronglifts. I think the cells are set to round decimals. It should be an easy formatting fix on the user end either way. The press shouldn't have been that high.

Back into doing a shit ton of compound programming every week. My squat is coming back but my hamstrings want to murder me.

Feels good.
