4. Lat Pulldown - 5 sets

5. Face Pulls - 3 sets

That's it for the heavy days this cycle. All the weights went up well today in the loose shirt. Plan is to go 270, 292 (7lb meet PR), 303 (18lb meet PR). Since this is my last meet of the year and won't do a meet until summer/fall next year I want to stay conservative and get this 300lb meet bench monkey off my back. I've hit 315 in training about 6 or 7 times easy, but I just can't seem to bring it together on meet day when it counts. If I hit the 300 I'll be 50lbs BEHIND my year end meet goal, I suck! That's ok, it'll happen. Malcom was finally back from his vacation, great to have my training partner back. Squattin' on Friday, speed bench on Sat then it's resting and mental work all next week baby. 11/18/06...
