Last check in at 11.00 with guy helping with prep and then decide any last minute changes

Always look better with less carbs

Started carbing up Thursday after 3 days 100gms

Depends on what happens Saturday will switch things around over the next 4 weeks and try some different approaches.

Good luck !!

Arms

Close grip bench (used slingshot) - 4 sets of 3 w/ 315. Felt good. (Took shoulder 15 months, finally (almost) healed (95%).
JM Press - 4 sets of 3 w/ 225
D-Bell Skull Crushers - 4 sets
Dips - 4 sets

Preacher Curls - 4 sets
Seated D-bell curls - 4 sets
Wrist curls - 4 sets

Lower back also felt great (stable leg brace when benching can affect back if injured).
Going to lighten my weights used I think moving FWD,and change some things up.
Need to listen to the signs... (injury)

Couple folks have asked "whats a JM Press". A cross between a close grip bench, and skull-crusher. (Named after Powerlifter JM Blakely who sort of made the lift popular in PL circles).

Nice Rob.....you`re probably just over trained.

Take a week off and rest up, or take as much time as you need until your enthusiasm to train returns.

Listen to your body so you don`t get injured brother!

Thanks for all the messages
Check in this morning went well, weighed 208 this am thats 16lbs up on my show weight last November
I was severely depleted back then, a long time on no carbs.
Carb cycled this last few weeks which has allowed me to hold onto some lean tissue

Happy with how I looked this morning
Its 19.30 here now, just rice cakes as carb source now until stage time
Will have some scrambled eggs in the morning, check in time is 09.30, should be onstage at around 12/12.30

Two more coats of tan to go

again thanks for all the kind words guys

Hanky, get fucked.
