Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

Starting 5day nSuns on Monday. RIP to the joints, ligaments, and tendons.
Did dead’s yesterday and a callous ripped off on the top set
I should take this weekend to chill and relax but I wana go do my last fukk around workout real quick
EDIT: three weaknesses I identified n plan to get to get up to speed this round is
1. BP strength off the chest (on my non-PR bench press days I’m going wide grip long pause).
2. Deadlift off the floor. (More quad work?)
3. Grip strength.

As one of the few people (only person?) ITT that have ran nSuns you might as well have @'tted @The Butcher. And I run the 6 day Squat+Row or 6 day Dead+Row versions too.
During one run I was squatting everyday too.
Now, with that said, the 5 day program is nothing and I assume you're not doing the 5 day row variant (you should). The extra rowing will save your shoulders from essploding from all the pressing & benching, and the extra back work may help your bench increase. The Bulgarian Methods makes my joints much more aggy than nSuns.
1) Weak off the chest points to a pec weakness. WG bench is good, so you should be doing that on Monday for volume day. Keep the incline bench on Weds to help with this.
Try adding in a session of cable flyes on either Mon or Fri, and a few sets (3-4) once a week of some DB bench variation (flat, incline, decline).
2) Don't worry too much about the weakness off the floor. Yes, the answer is quads.
Two of the recommendations for this is are opposite stance deadlifting and front squats, so this is already covered by doing Sumo Deads on Tuesday and Conventional Deads on Thurs.
I for one swap the order and always do T2 Front Squats first on Thurs before doing T1 Deads. (Your lower back will thank you.)
Most of the other less-taxing exercises are basic leg day exercises (leg press, leg extensions, hack squats) so I've always treated Thursday as another leg day like Tuesday versus a back day with front squats thrown in there.
3). Lotta things you can do to help with this, but many of them are chakra-intensive. You prolly won't have enough to squat twice, pull twice and do things like farmers walks in addition to your accessories and conditioning.
Instead try:
- Pulling without wrist straps
- Doing your T2 deads with bands and less weight
- Doing the Row Template as your T3 exercise
- Using grippers like Captains of Crush
- Making pull-ups or chin-ups one of your accessory exercises and doing a set of 5 for every set of T1/T2 OHP and bench set.
Was planning on doing another run of nSuns once I'm finished squatted everyday, so prolly another 5-6 weeks.

My legs are cooked 
My whole body is fried
Soccer game was good as was the bike ride as well. No hills so didn’t tax my quads too much.
My lifts are definitely increasing and my cardio is getting better. Cut is still going well. I suspect my lifts will stall in a few weeks give or take. Either way, the plan is good.

I know you seent that silky jumper in my IG story. Here's another one
Ball in there like a deshaun Watson masseuse
Now to the main event, what you're all here to see
Did you do something impossible today? Maybe you accomplished something that someone told you would only happen when pigs fly. Well guess what? This little piggy took flight, so thank me for that

Negs pending for wasting time and space on that court.
