I picked mine up from wrestlers world. Prices were good and so was shipping, no complaints about them.

Suplay - Wrestler's World -

here are a pair of Adidas A'ttaak for $32.99 and they have size 15 available

Suplay - Wrestler's World - A'ttaak Red/Silver/Silver Size 5½

They don't take up much size in the gym bag and are very light, it's not like a rigid wood soled oly shoe. These are basically a mesh sock with a very thin flexable sole.

Sweetness, thanks Standard. I might just go to Dick's or Modell's to try them on because I have the oddest shaped feet in the world I think. I spent twice as much money on my Oly shoes because I kept having to send them back because they wouldn't fit.

Don't feel bad Fenn.

*looks down at size 13 feet*

Dog owners judge a pup's potential size in part on foot size. So look at it that way.

They don't take up much space, they are basically a slipper with laces. You can smash them up into a little ball.

I think Ahab is the only one here with bigger feet than me, but he's A) never around and B) weighs less than 200lbs, so I automatically win.

170x5
205x4
240x3x2
275x2x5

Pause Bench Press
120x5
145x4
170x3x2

160x5
135x7

Good Mornings

I left off DB flies today, because well, frankly I'm sick of doing them. I need to look into fixing my good mornings as well, they aren't working right. Any ways, another week down.

What should I do at the completion of this 4 week cycle? Test my maxes and then deload? Test maxes and then jump right back in to #37? Don't test maxes? Sheiko ninjas are needed

Monday 8/18 Sheiko #29, Week 3 Day 1

Squats
190x5 (55%)
225x4 (65%)
255x3x2 (75%)
290x2x4 (85%)

Pause Bench Press
120x5 (50%)
145x4 (60%)
170x3x2 (70%)
195x3x6 (80%)

Squats
170x3 (50%)
205x3 (60%)
240x3 (70%)
275x3x4 (80%)

Done for today. I left off all the accessory work because I have been so beat up lately from working so much. All the squats felt pretty good, my form is really coming along well lately. That Dan John video really helped, and I only watched about half of it.

In a way I can't wait for school to start so I can get a little time off from work. I love the money but I'm hurting.

Nice work continuing in here. Unless you are planning to compete soon, I would just keep running prep cycles. I would move onto #37. It's got more number of lifts than 29. No need to test your max's, just bump up your training max's by 6.25 pounds (which will give you a 5 pound increase in your 80% weight). The longer you keep doing prep cycles the better the results will be.

Sweetness. I'll probably run 1 more cycle after #29 then and might have to try for a squat PR in the middle of it for the squat competition. I've only went up 5lbs since the competition started

Friday 8/22 Sheiko Week 3 Day 2

Deficit Deadlifts (3 inch deficit)
135x5
240x3x2 (50%)
285x3x2 (60%)
315x3x4 (65%)

These past few weeks of work have been catching up to me. More than anything though it is my inability/desire to eat that is killing me. I don't know what the fuck is up.

This week was a little crazy with work and a bunch of other stupid shit, so I only got 2 sessions in. I start school Monday and couldn't be any less excited.
