Took a recovery week. Starting this week off stronger at least on one lift.
My one armed barbell bench press is coming along nicely. My core has gotten to the point where it's not what's impeding my progress. I'm able to just kind of lift and have some linear progression atm. While this doesn't give me quite the pure chest workout as the two handed version, I definitely like the effect that it's having on my stabilizing muscles. That's helping my big lifts too. I'm only doing it once a week, so I'm definitely keeping it in my routine.
Anyway, trying to cut again. Saw a friend for the first time in 3 months. They said I've noticeably put on weight. Good kind in the arms. Not good in mid section. Vanity is a huge motivator for me, so hopefully this sticks.
that's awesome man I started lifting just before the rona and I still haven't seen anyone. Im kinda interested to see if anyone says anything when I see them
