And of course...

As soon as I say I am sticking with Juggernaut, I am back on 5/3/1. 

BUT WAIT

I can explain.

It's not you, baby, it's me. It's always been me.

Me, me, me. Mine, mine, mine. 




That just happened.

Anyhoo, the ol' jamesnasium announced the other day that they are holding an unsanctioned meet in mid-July. While I am not yet committed to participate, where I am with Juggernaut just ain't going to cut the mustard as far as getting back under semi-heavy weights in the short term, and there just isn't enough time for a standard block/conjugate cycle. Figured I would run a few cycled of 5/3/1 without deloads (tentatively), should get me approaching maximal weights in the shortest amount of time without completely winging it. 

That being said, I also took last week off because I have been feeling a low back/upper butt muscular pain lately that has only been getting worse, not better. Sure, one could argue that stretching and low back work would help take care of that, but let's face it





and I haven't been keeping up with it as I should. So the story goes. Squatted last night for my 5/3/1 sets, then a few heavier singles and back down to my last working weight for a few more sets, then some yoke bar good mornings. Tonight, Thor willing, I'll get into some bird dogs or supermans to work on that low back. 

Go forth and word to your nearest relative.
