Front Squats 2 min RI
4x8 154 lbs

Superset:
Chins BW +22 lbs 3 min RI, all reps to chest except last rep on the last 3 sets... bar to collarbone.
8x4

DB bench 3 min RI
8x4 82,6 lbs DB:s


Deadlift first set parallel grip

DB OHP 50 sec RI. DB:s tilted inwards.

Good WO! Increased the volume a bit on legs, chest and back.
Got a planned deload next week mostly due to my knee. I'll decrease the squatting
weight on monday and wednesday with 11 lbs.... better safe than sorry.
The increase in volume in chins had a bit of an impact on my curls, but I knew it would so I'm not disappointed.

1x6 BW+ 13,2 lbs

I will increase the weight on squats to 176 lbs after the deload week.
I suspect I might have to decrease the weight on DB press since I'm using a weight that I managed to do 3x10 with unlimited rest and now it's 2 minutes RI.
Otherwise I'm pretty satisfied with this WO!  :)

Last weeks WO:s

Mondays WO:

Squats 3 min RI
8x3 187,3 lbs,

Chins 55 sec RI, all reps to lower chest except for the last 3 reps on the last two sets.
5x6 1x4 +30 sec RI 1x2 6x6 BW +11 lbs

Added 2 eccentric chins, mod full ROM lat row and 6 BW chins bar to chest.

DB bench Flat 45 sec RI
5x6 1x4 +15 sec RI 1x1, 20 sec RI 1x1 66 lbs DB:s

BNP 81,5 lbs 2,5 mi RI
2x8 1x5 + 30 sec rest 1x2

Curl 3x5 1x5+ 2 cheat curls 1x3 + 4 cheat curls 81,5 lbs

Cable donkeys: 165 lbs
1x50 1x43 1x40

Rehab:
Leg ext 1x40 +20 burns 22 lbs

Decided to just do the deload for my legs.
Chins felt very heavy... and when I checked my log I discovered
that I did 6x6 with BW only. Not with 11 lbs strapped to me. Pushed the RI on DB bench a little too soon.

Wednesdays WO:

Front Squats 2 min RI
3x8 143,3 lbs

Superset:
WG Pullups BW 3 min RI, all reps to chest except last rep on the last 4 sets...
8x4 + 1x4 eccentric

DB bench 3 min RI. Easier than last time
8x4 82,6 lbs DB:s


Deadlift first set parallel grip
3x10 142,5 lbs

DB OHP 45 sec RI. DB:s tilted inwards.
6x6 39,6 lbs DB:s

Curl 55 sec RI
6x6 27,5 lbs DB:s

Howorth toe raise: 57,3 lbs, a bit shorter RI than usual!
1x38 1x24 1x25

I guess my "finisher" on chins took a toll on me and that was noticeable on my pullups today.
Finally chest seems to move forward after a rather long plateau!   ;D
My knee feels better . Apparently my front squat is more natural to me than my back squat. That's according to
the guys I train with. I have a smoother groove when I front squat.

Fridays WO:

Squats 30 sec RI
6x6 143,3 lbs,

Chins 2 min RI, Bar to chest. Misread my log and put 1,1 lbs too much.
1x10 BW +13,2 lbs
1x9 BW +13,2 lbs
1x6 BW+ 13,2 lbs

DB bench flat 2 min RI except for the last rest.. got a mind-f*** and rested 1 min.
71,6 lbs 1x8 1x8 1x7 1x5 +2 rest pause

OHP 3 min RI
8x3 113,5 lbs

Curl 66 lbs 1,5 min RI
1x10 1x10 1x5 +4 cheat

OH DB tri ext 49,6 lbs 2 min RI
1x9
1x8
1x8

Reeves machine calfs: 112,4 lbs
1x46 1x33 1x34

I really like BNP, it gives me an upper body pump that I seldom have.

Knee is getting better and so is my squatting technique! Chest might have been a bit burned out
from last week so that was a bit of a setback.
Not my best WO, but a fairly decent one. ;)

First setback in calfs... I can't remember the last time that happened?
I can't really complain too much about the rest of the WO. I'm going to back off the weight ever so slightly in chins just to
be able to get more volume there, which seems to work for me.
Did go all the way in the DB press. ;D  Can't consider the frog squat leg ext sequence as rehab this time... :o
