Well its called a pull day but its as good as back day I guess! Shuffled things around a bit, starting off with 4 sets of wide-grip chinups for 8 reps (assisted - I are still fat ass) and then going on to deadlifts, overhand/underhand rows and finally finishing off with lat pulldowns.
Theres not much room for variation when one needs to stick to old school movements so the best thing to do is to mix up the order and that worked well for me today, I got a nice squeeze on my lats which I havent had in a while. Plus i think i have room to amp up my rows weight now, toss another 5 lbs in there.
Its hard to write about my progress when the stories I read for inspiration have such enormous numbers... 400-500 lb deadlifts, 500-600 lb squats, insane feats of fitness. Its hard not to get discouraged, and i WAS discouraged. But its at your lowest point when you need to be the strongest, and take a little help if you need to. I poked a new hole in my belt yesterday and the rush that gave me has to keep me going for another couple months now. its a painfully slow game so be prepared!
