SPRING RECOMP 2021 - DAY 13
LIFT DAY

Another good day under the bar yesterday. Leftover Squats from Monday @ 10 X 175#, 5 reps over goal; Rows @ 8 X 105#, 3 reps over; Machine Crunch @ 8 X 170#, 3 reps over. Newbie gains.

And the piece de resistance.... Wide Pull Ups - unweighted..... 2.....down a rep... Oh well, can't win 'em all...

Had my main meal - steak, yams, and onions - pre-workout again. Little nap, then early to the gym. Thought I might just not eat post workout. Nah. Recycled the second pint of Jimmie's "Anabolic" Chunky Monkey (ACM) into a shake. 16 oz Almond Milk, 2 fat scoops whey, handful of rotting strawberries, sprinkle of stevia, and the ACM. That was one yummy and protein and calorie packed shake! One might think that one might simply stop eating after such a treat. Not. It was Taco Tuesday FFS, so tacos. Recycled leftover hanger steak and roasted onions, toasted up my tortillas on the griddle, topped it all with an ungodly pile of cheese and then under the broiler. God I love broilers!

If anyone knows of a 110V salamander appropriate for home use, please let me know. I found a Volrath unit at webstaurant, but am choking on the price tag....

3500k, 230p. I hate resorting to whey to jack up my protein, but the reality is that it is pretty difficult to get there eating meat.

Back remains unhappy. OK. Still haven't drafted my accessory/flexibility plan. OK. Onward.

Waist = 34 1/4"; down 1/4". Go figure.

Sun's out!

Let's go!

I consider it a victory if I can hang from the pull up bar for more than 2 seconds! 😁 Actually, it's a goal of mine to be able to do pull ups again. 💪 Sorry to hear your back is still bothering you. I know you'll get a plan figured out and put it into action. Have an awesome day. 🌞👍 Oh and I'm going to look up that salamander thingy. I'm curious.

Maybe you should cut back on the🍷🍺🍸🍹, so you don’t end up under the bar again 😉

I know I should cut back maybe and a beer or a glass of wine I really like them and I count the calories

Eater did some salamander-like device reviews on their YT channel, if I recall correctly. They do excellent reviews, BTW. Here's the one I remember watching. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZVfc9r7Bqk This is what you're talking about, right?

There's another episode where they just break out the bernzomatic torch to get to the same results. That's way more fun.

@kat Thanks for the info! Unfortunately link came back "video unavailable". I have a couple torches. May be OK for lit work like a creme brule or whatever, but finishing a steak is a project.

@kat Finally got the link to work. That's the idea, only I am looking for 110V electric vs. gas.
