weee its bench day
flat BB bench wu wu 185x5 195x5 205x5 215x5 225x4+1a that felt pretty good, now I just need to figure out some way to turn the 2's into 3's.... cg bench 8" wu 155x6 175x6 185x5 bb military wu 95x6 120x6 135x6 L laterals, because I felt like it 20x12 25x10 30x8 tricep pushdowns wu stackx12 (150 lbs) stackx12 stack+10x10 felt good, walked out happy I think I may need to eat more though, about 2 weeks ago is when I noticed my lifts either nose diving or hitting a plateu. That makes me think the 15-30 mins of cardio I added to my regime 5 weeks ago may have been draining me. Over the last 2 weeks I cut the after workout cardio and my lifts have been getting back up. Not sure, I could either try and fit sparse cardio in my non lifting days, reduce intensity/time of cardio after weights or add some carbs here and there to help recover. Sleeping more could help too. for posteritys sake if/before anyone asks my diet is roughly: 2800-3100 calories/day 7-9 meals 250-350g protein 30-90g fat ~250 carbs it fluctuates due to my schedule but its a rough idea PS thanks guys for the props, and I will definitely need all the luck i can get for medschool

Alright, I was feeling sick and kinda out of it, but I went in and did some squats anyway.
bb squats wu wu 270x6 290x6 310x6 After this I decided to call it, I usually try and do a big set of 2-4 on my 4th round but my mind and body were not there, so I chose to call it while I was ahead and rest. Peace

Took finals week off from lifting, wanted my systems as energized as possible and didnt want to deal with muscle/nerve drain.
Quick and easy incline and rgbps today Incline BB bench wu wu 175x5 185x5 195x5 205x4 RGBP wu 135x5 145x5 155x5 165x5 I am still getting used to RGBP, but it is quickly becoming one of my favorite tri exercises, all I really do now for tris is cgbp on friday and rgbp on monday and ive been having great results (Skulls tweak my elbows in bad ways so i dont do them) Other than that it just feels good to have finals done peace

Alright, Squat day
ATG squats warmups 225x5 225x5 235x5 I kept these nice and light as I have not done ATG in a long time, I may do a bit heavier next week and then head on into adding more as I want to come back into ATG nice and slow. SLDL warmups 235x5 255x5 270x4 After SLDL I did some leg press to finish these motions off ~500x10x3 GHR bwx5 3 sets Ha, if anyone read my deadlift thread and suggested these you were not kidding, felt like every balance and stabilizing weakness got a sharp kick in the ass, I went down as far as I could and kept my form tight as I could, bit rough but its the first day I did these so it was not too bad, next week should be better Some calf press work ~500x8x 3 sets All in all I think this is a good step forward for overall strength, for those that didnt check my DL thread I was having issues with the low pull section of the lift and today highlighted the notion that it is some glute/ham weakness that may be holding me back, considering those groups feel heavily worked today compared to my previous squat days things are looking good. Peace

squat day, felt like crap, took it easy
ATG squats warmups 225x6 235x5 245x5 SLDL warmups 225x5x3 leg press 400x20 500x15 600x15 calf press 500x12x3 20 mins elliptical Anyone think that alternating atg and paralell would be a positive? continuous ATG kind of wrenches my knees so I am thinking a heavier paralell and the mid weight ATG alternated might be a good mix. Regardless, feedback appreciated. Peace
