The Cube Cycle 3 max effort – bench

$

Some times my days all run together and it takes me a bit to remember what I did when and what day it even is.   One of the things about getting old that sucks, the brain doesnt want to work as hard to remember things, or maybe I am just getting increasingly lazy in my old age and dont put for the effort, it is probably the latter!

Got up and out the door at all the usual times.

bench max effort

dreadmill warm up with some stretching after.

bench

*45# for 5

*95# for 5

*115# for 3

*135# for 1

*145# for 1

*155# for 1

*160# for 1

*165# for 1

a 5# increase over the previous two cycles so I guess that is good.  It is not a PR but at least it is going forward and not backward.

We had a few ranch calls scheduled for after surgeries and we had had a few cancellations so we got on the road sooner than what I had expected.   On the way out of town we swung into the chiropractors for a quick adjustment.  It was awesome as my neck was way out.   Since I have been have massage therapy done I havent had to go to the chiropractor in forever but I needed it.    We grabbed some very unhealthy lunch and raced down the road.

The first place has been clients of mine for 12+ years!  Their son was just a kid but is now married with a son of his own.  I love going there as it feels like working with family!  We had to castrate and freeze brand some wild colts and other stuff.  It took almost four hours but it was a great time.

and some broncs bled!

It was a great time.  After that we hit the road and headed to Flemings TB Farms to castrate a few more colts and cut open some abscesses and pull some wolf teeth.   It was late getting home and had an emergency come in right after my shower.  I was definitely ready for bed!
