my brain feels like mush.
back day deads warmup 135 225 275 275 325-****in grip.. thats the last straw im getting straps.. totally is effecting me negativley when i cant do many reps with high weight because the bar slides out of my hands. barbell rows 155 155 155 155 lat pulldowns 135 135 135 hammer strength high iso lateral back bla bla machine 4 plates 4 plates 6 plates upright rows 80 80 80 80 high rep bb shrugs 155 155 155 energy 8/10. i had a decent workout, nothing to complain about really. i tried the extreme dc stretch for my back and it worked well for completely draining my back after my last set. on that note.. i tried the dc stretch for chest yesturday and its the first time my chest has been this sore for at least a year; i hope this bring on new growth.

IMO, if you are gaining strength, you are doing good. You should be increasing strength at least every couple of weeks, but you should always try to push yourself for an extra rep or extra weight every week. The only time you have to really worry is if you did worse.
Keep up the good work |

im pretty sure its just whey.. its called the ultimate nutrition sensation 81 whey. it tastes really good to.. and with the low price i had to take it over the muscle milk which was like 60 bucks for 4.4 pounds of it at gnc.. i actually thought it was a joke when i first saw the price.
