October 20 W1D3: First deadlift session after three weeks of rest and therapy. 5 reps of 155# and still getting a hang of it. PT said to take it easy. 😅 #deadliftday #teamPVLwarehouse #teamAbdul #rawlifting #strengthtraining P.S. no Bench video for W1D2. Can't get a good angle 😆 https://www.instagram.com/p/BpL2l2qgbJF/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=p9iqndgykacq

October 17 W1D1: Comeback squat training after three weeks of rest and therapy. Was able to do 5 reps of 145lbs after reviewing my cues. Note: tried this weight a week before but it hurt my back after one attempt. I thought it was all over for me. 😆 #squatlife #teamPVLwarehouse #teamAbdul #strengthtraining #rawlifting https://www.instagram.com/p/BpL1d0PA1V8/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3fmd1q71ync1

So today I competed in my first strongman competition. Not to mention my very first competition ever. I feel I did pretty well and Im really happy with what I accomplished. Yoke carry at around 600lbs for 30ft, 145lb atlas stone over a bar 11 times, I squatted a car 7 times, and a 140lb overhead axel press for 5 total reps. Each event had a 1 minute time limit. Im excited to keep working at it and to keep pushing forward and getting stronger. Thank you to @ignitefitnez for putting on the event, thank you to @octocake_the_alien for filming and supporting me, and thank you to my trainer @sfloresfit for pushing me to get to this point. Looking forward to my next competition coming up in a few months. 💪😎 #strongman #strongmanevent #competition #weightlifting #rawlifting #ignitefitnez #goldsgym #sfloresfit #heavyaf #rebelalliancepiercing (at Ignite Fitnez) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnMzcwZnMu-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1c3f3eyrjblwp

5th week Deadlift Day: Doing 81.5% at 75kg, 15 reps total. Easier lifts compared to last week's 72.5kg. Retuned cues by @the.dean.rn 💪 #deadlift101 #teamAbdul #teamPVLwarehouse #egolifter #rawlifting #strengthtraining #shepot (at Gold's Gym Holiday Inn)

Behind every success, are failures that people don't get to see. I don't really feel good today. 😥 Failed 3rd rep attempt at 84% (75kg). #squatgoals #pwetgoals #teamPVLwarehouse #teamAbdul #shepot #rawlifting

Week 4 Bench day: 45kg x 4 reps x 4 sets Assumed 1RM is 55kg. Yung sa sobrang badtrip mo, nakaya mong mag 4 reps ng 80% bench mo. Lol. #beastmode #topakhits #teamPVLwarehouse #teamAbdul #shepot #rawlifting #nospotneeded #liftlikeagirl

Deadlift day: 67.5kg (70%) x 3 sets x 5 reps "Not bad." #deadlift101 #egolifter #shepot #teamPVLwarehouse #teamAbdul #rawlifting #nospotneeded 😏
