Speaking of cleaning the yard, try to imagine how much crap 4 dogs produce. Cleaning it up is a every day project.

More on topic, why so many reps on the presses and your traps? There must be a happy medium, says me who has pathetic traps and delts.

Honestly, trying not to hurt myself so doing lighter weights. Off all "supplements" for the first time in a long time, so finding my groove.

In that case, your routine is much better than mine. I'm using lighter weights like you are, after a way too long break, but I am doing 10-12 reps. I get a little muscle soreness for a day or so on this routine. It must be working.

As for supplements, it would be dishonest for me to claim I was not using "supplements", especially since I am on doctor prescribed HRT and probably will be the rest of my life....or until I get sick and tired of sticking a needle in my butt every Monday. For over-the-counter supplements, I take Creatine and occasionally have a protein drink. Lately, if been using Vegan pea protein (I'm not vegan). It tastes surprisingly good.

Tomorrow is leg day for me. My routine looks a lot like yours with the exception that I've not been squatting yet and I do a few more reps than you do with probably much lighter weights.

Squats were tough today. More because of the bar placement. I've always struggled to get the bar low enough on my back.

I use a piece of equipment made of plastic that cradles the bar.

Is this a home made thing?

It is not homemade. Thanks for asking about it though because until I just looked it up, I did not know that it was called a Manta Ray.

PL:
I'd like to take a run at a 1500 lb total.  That'll be a challenge for me. I've never done a full power meet. But have done a few push pulls. PR is right at 400/600 = 1000. But that was several years ago. I feel good right now, so I'm optimistic

And I want blue stars
