Vlog #15 // Friday the 13th!

It is officially the end of my first week of prep and I'm pretty happy how things have been going.  Currently my nutrition is at 40-fat / 280-cho / 315-pro for a total of 2740 Calories.  All this is subject to change and is just a starting point for this long journey.  I hope to have you all follow along!!

Also, here is a highlight from my Deadlifts on Wednesday where I did what I like to call an "Up Set."  Each set had 2 minutes between them with 315x25 not shown.

Had a great one and here's how it went.....

*Warm-ups excluded

Chambered BB Row- 1x10@275 / 2x10@295 / 1x10@275
Wide NG Pulldown- 2x10 / 2x8
Hammerstrength Row- 4x8
Hammerstrength Pullover- 4x10

Trove 26

Lately I have had quite a few people asking about the origin of the name Trove 26.  It actually comes from a combination of things that all bodybuilders have in common, a mass of iron.  Trove literally comes from the word mass and the number 26 is the atomic number of iron.  It is one thing that will always be  a constant to everyone in this sport and a reminder for me to always stick to the basics.  There is no magic trick or solution that outweighs the work you put forth.

Today's line up was Back and a GREAT one it was!  Hit it up with Tara and here's how it went down.....

*Warm ups excluded

Hammer Strength Lat pulldown- 3x8 (170lbs per side)
Reverse grip BB rows- 1x10@315 / 2x8@315
Natalus compound row- 4x8
Narrow grip stiff arm pulldowns- 3x10
