Close grip bench is definitely making my triceps stronger.

First regular squat in nearly two weeks and a 3 rep PR. The lesson: box squats allow me to work my squat without aggravating my knee too much WHILE making me more explosive out of the bottom.

  1. Seems you're so happy with the close grip, I'm gonna bring them in on Mondays after regular bench for 2 heavy sets. 6 sets of 3 on bench then 2 of 5 for close grip.

  2. forgot to mention a couple things;

    1.That is a pretty big PR in the squat. Again it just shows that if you go hard in the gym and get your weight or reps up, you get stronger.

    2.I had a dream that you went to the doctor to get anabolics by telling him your test levels were low. You got the pills and then I was jealous cause I wanted to get huge too! hahaha!

  3. Yeah some heavy close grip seems to be a good idea.

    That dream is pretty funny man. Probably only a matter of time until it becomes reality.
