Message: [QUOTE="Bambrewer, post: 1334651, member: 4728"] Been a while since I posted any updates so I figured I'd give you guys one. Shy is still doing well in school looks to be honor roll again this quarter. It's kinda precarious the way this quarter and next quarter are. They missed so much time this quarter with snow and next quarter is already short so every test every homework is huge. It's like all his work counts double... Though he only has half the work of a normal quarter. He is taking the sat agian tomorrow just trying to improve his score thought technically he doesn't need to. He will take t and the act 3 more times before July. You have seen the pictures of him working out. We are going 4 days a week as the s&c dept wants and following there plan exactly. I'm still not a fan of the workout but it is what it is. The last couple days shy has been pretty bummed about his performance. I've had to explain to him repeatedly how it's a different workout the numbers won't be the same.for example he is benching 275 for 8 right now and is struggling with it. When before he felt good benching 325 for 3. He isn't equating the new reps and the order the plan calls for changing what he can do... He just sees lower numbers and harder work. Like wise as this morning he was struggling dumbbell benching 80 lb Dumbbells ( we didn't do many dumbell exercises before mostly straight bar) it's not that he can't bench 160 lbs it's his forearms are not used to controlling the dumbells. I show him even at week 2 he is going up and controlling the weight better. Just a lot of motions we didn't do. He is feeling weak right now though. He is afraid he will get on campus and all the other kids will be way ahead. So this morning I talked about it's only week 2 of 16 more weeks till he gets to campus and just keep eating lifting and taking protien and he will show up and be the athletic freak he wants to be lol.
