Nice work bro! Really impressive weights you're throwing around dude. The Yates rows are impressive too, man. How's the diet been? And how deep are you going on the squats if you don't mind? Keep it up!

excellent w/o today. those tate presses fried my tri's, first time doing those. The dips went real well too, I didn't hit failure and I was aiming for 10 and was happy about that with another 25 lbs on me. The arnold presses were extremely hard, more tri's are recruited on the ball i notice

took an extra couple days rest because ive been sleeping like shit and felt I was overtraining. I did the smart thing and rested, I'll probably be doing that alot considering how much stress I have/will be putting on my CNS with this program.

the reverse hypers were awesome, first time doing those. great lower back pump. The pistols were a bitch, my left leg has absolutely no balance in comparison to my right leg. my left leg shakes on the negative, my right leg is perfectly still... great exercise though.

BW: 213!!!

Long ass workout. The heat sucked and I didn't really feel very strong, shitty day of dieting yesterday... only got about 2000cals when im usually around 3800-4200

despite how i felt, i still had an awesome workout. broke 255 on the flat bench, and I was rowing 315! The past 3 weeks i've added 10 lbs each week to my bench, hopefully the trend will continue, i really want 315 by summers end.

going to rest for at least 1 day, more than likely 2 depending how i feel. I really have my body figured out as far as rest is concerned... i know when to pull back and it shows when I have so many PB weeks.

P.S. the reason why I did rows today as apposed to ME Lower day was because I plan on doing deads (Full ROM) on ME lower day this week and I'm not going to have anything left in the tank for lats after I do deads.

yea man i woke up and weighed 213 and I was like holy shit.. no way. I wasn't chubs either, it was probably water. before I went to bed I weighed myself (that day) and I was 222.5 naked.

its weird... when i first started training i'd go like 3 or 4 days without gaining weight and then boom i'd gain 5 lbs instantly

I really want to get to 235 - 240 before school starts (ideally 2 weeks prior) so I can cut for at least a week b4 i head up to providence. Gotta be up there September 7th

Just checking in... i pulled something in my back 3 days ago (muscular... was pulling weeds all day) so I haven't lifted in awhile. Gunna try to get my back to normal so I can get back in the gym... we'll see how it feels tomorrow. I might just do DE upper if my back isn't up for an ME day

yea... no way i was working my lower body, my lower right portion of my back is in alot of pain, it may even be my hip flexor. But whatever it is, it hurts, so i decided to do DE Upper. I'm just going to work around my injury

as far as the workout, the db presses went well, havent done them in awhile... should've went with 90's on the first set.

i was pulling weeds for about 5 hrs, and my back wasnt feeling too good that morning anyway. I went to pick a heavy storage bin up and boom instant pain, i was paralyzed for a few seconds, it hurt bad.

I went to the chiropracter to get adjusted even though I knew it wasn't going to help my injury. He told me exactly what I thought he'd say... "its muscular, your a healthy kid, rest it and you'll be fine."

So the only thing I can do is ice it and take hot showers.

ya i hate when that shit happens. If you're bent over all day pulling stuff out, carrying heavy objects or like painting, your lower back starts to cramp really bad.

well its not the first time ive gotten this pain... i squirmed once while squatting maybe 3 months ago and got the same pain, no where near as intense as this pain though. So i'm going to avoid any exercises involving my hip flexors which sucks but I'll get through it.

back still in slight pain, buts its feeling ALOT better than yesterday and the day before. so i'm on the upside.

I did some back and leg work today, avoided anything involving hip flexion, obliques, and lower back.

WG pulldowns, CG weighted chins, alternating renegade rows supersetted with alt bi curls, DB rows, Leg press, calf raise, lying leg curl, abs

not going to list weights simply because this wasnt apart of my current routine... hopefully the next ME lower day I'll be able to squat/deadlift

i'm still gaining weight so thats a good sign... bodyweight is naked on an empty stomach.
