So ring finger on ring felt a little stretched out so I went to pinkie on ring and that felt better. On the third set I banged my head on the bar so I raised the J-hooks a notch. Except for that this bench session went WAY better. I started to put in the arch and retraction automatically and the bar path started feeling real smooth and accelerating. Also the shoulders are really happy now. I just wasn't paying attention before.

I have added a little aerobics and I mean very little. A 3 minute boxing workout. 10 jabs, 10 rights, 10 left hook to the head, 10 overhead right, 10 left hook body-left hook head, 10 left right, 10 left right left.
Been doing it every day just to get the heart rate elevated a little and for the athletic component and balance.
2+ quarts water today to make sure I'm not dehydrated.
I told my wife get bikini ready by the summer, because I'm going to be shredded!
I hear you but that isn't the issue. The issue is that I'll get shredded and then she'll get self conscious, because she thinks she should be in better shape. Personally I don't like the girls too skinny. That's their issue, but I don't want that getting in the way of fun. Covid is going on too long. Time for fitness and fun!!!
I agree on all fronts!
The whole covid thing only carries on because the countless masses of sheep keep complying. Yes, plenty are standing up and resisting and there are HUGE protests worldwide, but so many are still complying and just doing what they're told no matter what. Since that is the case, governments around the world continue to abuse their power.
Long day late start to eating. I feel like a stuffed pig right now.

Going to reduce the calories to 2000 starting today, I need the rate of change to be just a hair higher. I was looking at some of the videos that Chris Bumstead has put out on his meal plans talk about discipline!!!
I want to exceed where I was 2 summers ago and I don't want to have to do a hard cut later so I'll take off a little more from here.

5lb increments were too small, but I didn't know how it would go. I could've kept going but it was a ridiculous amount of sets. Form is much better but it's not burned in yet, I do have to force myself sometimes to keep the bar path correct. I don't understand why I did that there's so much more power when the bar path is correct.
Got to keep with the mobility work. For sure I've got some muscles now but the fat behind the obliques is disgusting IMO. I need to be patient but that's got to go.

Usually I have to force myself to eat, I was hungry yesterday. Probably should be eating a little less on the days I'm not working out, especially since I'm doing doubles on my days off from work and those days probably require a little more.
9 weeks in now, we're past the conditioning phase, we'll see how we do from here, still targeting the 4th of July. I want to see where we can take it here at 61.
Thinking to do the 3 minute boxing workout after work 4 days a week.
Got a new chest stretch for you. Try holding an unloaded barbell on your chest and slowly move it up to your neck.
