Ab wheel

Right-arm DB Shrug
3x20x60

Band Scapular Retraction
2x20xmini

Comments: Squats moved pretty well today, and everything was pretty easy.  I tried to use my Convict Pro's for my first set to give my knees a break, but I switched to the Inzer Gripper's because they are so much easier to self-wrap.  They hurt quite a bit for high reps, but they are sooooo good!  Last week on conditioning cycle, won't miss the sets of 8 on squat and deadlift!




Day 2 (Tuesday, 3/20/12)

Shirt Bench (44 SK) 
3x5x275 (touch 5th rep of 2nd set and last 2 reps of 3rd set)

MG Bench
3x8x175

Decline Bench
3x8x175

NG DB Bench
3x8x65's

Inverted rows
3x8

Face pulls to chin
3x12x90

Comments: Even though I touched a bit too low and my positioning wasn't as good as I am shooting for touching with this light of a weight was a big confidence boost. Especially since it is just my second time in this reasonably tight Super Katana.




Day 3 (Wednesday, 3/14/12)

BB Shrugs
3x6x365

Pendlay Rows
3x6x165

Conv. Deadlift

Rack Pulls

Reverse Crunches
5x8

Band Scapular Retractions
4x20xmini

Comments: I think my conventional form is starting to shape up. I think this conditioning cycle has added some size to my upper back and I hope it translates to bigger competition pulls. I'm optimistic.
