See previous post about Z Health work with Brad Nelson
2 scoops Surge, 1 protein, 6 BCAAs, creatine, 2 L Carnitine
TESTED
before--palms on floor!
str bar DLs +1"
RDL -5 " ugh
did not test trap bar
DL
135 x 6, 185 x 3, 225 x 4, 275 x 4
315 x 3 Lhup
335 x2 pause at bottom each time--felt awesome! Very "well connected" but without excessive tension
335 x 2 R h up
335 x 2 Lh up
335 x 1 R hup, speed started to slow, called it a day
Wanted to go up in weight, but decided not to since had some major Z Health work done in the AM
PM session
with training partner
Double 16 kg KB bottoms up press--PR
Had not tried this one since this past summer
Bench (flat, comp grip)
tested awesome, did not test others
135 x8
185 x 4
215 x 1 felt great
225 x 1 felt great, good speed, all touch and go
235 x 1, had a slight amount of help on it since it stalled and started to go backwards about 4 inches off chest, forgot to move eyes up, partner touched the bar so can't count as a PR. Next time I will get it for sure!!
205 x 1 audible commands, with a pause at chest
205 x 1 aud. comm and pause again
205 x 1 same--good speed
315 x 8 sec isometric
partner monitored blink rate (threat response)
increased a first then calmed down to about 1/sec, breathing was normal and relaxed
held at lock out
opted for one more set
225 x 0 ---missed, stupid idea to try after iso hold, DL sess earlier in the day and Z/scar work this AM. Stalled out about 1/2 way up and just lowered to chest/support cage bars--mental note for next time. Violated my own rule of end on a high note

Nice job, Mike! Looks like your bench is really making some strides.
Thanks buddy! Much appreciated!
Yeah, it is finally starting to come around. The best part is that I can bench now and still feel great, as in the past I would feel trashed and not so good, had hand tingles on my left hand, etc at silly light weights.
Rock on
