    Feel as though I have adapted pretty well so far. Plan is to move straight on to #37 next week with a bit of an increase in the maxes. I will run that twice and that will take me to my cruise at the end of October. When I return there will be 5 weeks to a meet, so the 5 week meet prep would work. Provided I don't hurt myself lifting or playing flag football. We did win our first game yesterday.

    Today's workout. I replaced the front squats with close stance olympic squats just out of preference.

    Squat
    Bar x 5
    135 x 5
    225 x 3

    265 x 5
    Belt
    315 x 4
    370 x 3 x 2
    420 x 3 x 5

    Bench
    160 x 5
    190 x 5
    220 x 4 x 5

    DB Fly/Dip Superset
    30's x 10/BW x 8 for 5 sets

    Oly Squat
    210 x 5 x 2
    265 x 4 x 2
    315 x 3 x 3

    Good Morning
    165 x 5 x 5

    2-0 in football, but our offense needs a lot of work. D is playing great so far. Both games won 7-0.

    This week looks to be pretty brutal. Dropped our game today 6-0. Gave up a punt return td. We can't get anything going on offense. We will get a positive play and then get three penalties in a row. May be a long, long season.

    I believe RPS has a meet 12/1. If all goes well in training and no injuries playing flag football, then it should be a go. I'll compete at 242 for that one. Not screwing around with restricting calories during the holidays.
