Training Log: 3/10/14 (Teach and Inspire)

Today I trained with a friend from high school and his brother. I showed them proper bench press form and oh my goodness, their faces lit up like it was Christmas. I also showed them how to squat properly and my buddy couldn't walk right for a solid couple minutes. Teaching people the ways of the iron is way more satisfying to me than hitting a new PR on a lift. Knowing that someone can now lift safely and effectively is very comforting to me.

Of course, I also trained myself today, and it went great.

Texas Method C1W4D1:
Squat 5x5 295lbs
Press 5x5 135lbs
Dead 1x5 365lbs
One arm Rows 3x6 100lbs

I added the rows because it's volume day anyway, I like back work, and I was teaching the other guys how to do them. I didn't stall on any reps today. I didn't even lose speed on my squats, which is awesome. Hopefully I won't feel too trashed tomorrow. I have Chipotle and whole milk though, so I think I'll be ok.

Stay Strong,
JB
