Attempted deadlift of 365 and hit it without struggling.
I might be able to hit 405 by the end of year if I push hard enough.

Body is feeling good to end the year. 2026 is gonna be glorious 
Gunned for 375 on squat, almost had it til the last 10% and then buckled a bit.
Got it back up, but didn't count since it wasn't a clean rep.

Sounds like you have the strength, just need to execute.
Pretty much, I definitely noticed I didn't have my feet wide enough, I usually try to go just past shoulder width and this time I was way less that shoulder width.
So that's on me for going away from what my normal form is.

I been struggling for a while but I'm finally getting my strict pull-up volume up. Got 3 sets of 8 unbroken for the first time. Never got past 6 for months. Now hopefully getting it to ten faster.
Seven weeks in and I’m still affected by this tennis elbow …. This shyt is no joke….
I haven’t stopped working out tho …. I just modified it a lot
Workouts have been boring tho but I’m going keep pushing

Nothing the specialist suggested worked ?
Yea, my ortho doc gave me some home PT workouts to do back in week 3 of me injuring this shyt which was working and then I re-injured the shyt and went back to square fukking one. I went back to the ortho doc to get a cortisone shot but I ended up not getting because at the end of the day it won’t fix the problem it only mask the pain and it’s possible I can get discoloration at the spot I receive the shot. I’m going to actual physical therapy today I was trying to avoid it because I have to pay out of pocket but fukk it I need to speed this up. My shyt is getting better but it’s a slow slow process.
When I get back from my sub-Saharan Africa holiday I need to see a PT something serious.
Taken a lot of time off squats but I still have this niggle in my lower left spine. That groin injury was no joke, so innocuous but the effects are lingering.
For leg days I’m all machines for the time being.
I head to Naija on Christmas, then will bounce through the African continent until I’m back in Cali during MLK Jr Day in Jan’26. Already booked a PT appt for then.
But in 2026, I simply can’t have these lingering issues. I need to take things to the next level fitness wise.

At least my upper days are still good. This morning was one of my better upper days in a while. Still moving.

Anybody know the lyrics to this song? Saw a flabby breh rappin these lyrics and couldn’t help but laugh.
“fukkin dumb ass nikka, retarded ass nikka, I’ll fukkin murder you!”
All in front of teenagers and old white women with no headphones on. I forgot my headphones.
