Messing around with some forearm work, and I realized today was the first moment of prep where I felt "lean." So, that was neat. #thethickening #roadtonationals #meatheadmagic (at Fitness Excellence)

I'm convinced these short shorts have superpowers. 415lbs for a lovely 4 rep set of sort-of-paused back squats. 'twas a wicked Monday morning leg sesh with @ashley.joelle.wing. #thethickening #roadtonationals #meatheadmagic (at Fitness Excellence)
Straight outta last week, these rack pulls with emphasis on a massive lat contraction (achieved by pulling the bar into the rack) were absolute 🔥🔥🔥 # It's funny, I remember 3 or 4 years ago when I'd take 405lb rack pulls out for 15-20 reps without a second thought. Yet, my low back was A LOT more touch and go, and looked less than impressive. It's like that whole tension and rep quality thing I ramble on about has something to it. #thethickening #roadtonationals #meatheadmagic (at Fitness Excellence)

Mentally, today was tough. I didn't want to do cardio, a glass or four of Malbec sounds perfect, and squatting was the last thing on my mind. # But, I showed up anyway and did what I had to do. # This is where motivation falls flat. This is where motivation leaves you hanging. This is why waiting to be motivated gets nowhere. # Discipline is the key. Disciple breeds results. # If you need a dose of discipline in your life (or want results), hit the link in my bio. #thethickening #roadtonationals #meatheadmagic (at Fitness Excellence)
