Eh, decent deadlifts considering I've done more in the past. I'm not upset about it though.

Haha. My schedule is allllll over the place, but at least I don't have friday classes and my busiest day is Tuesday which is usually an off day from the gym for me, so it isn't too bad... I hear you though. How are classes going?

ME Bench
January 9th, 2008

Bench Press: 135x8, 155x5, 175x4, 195x3, 225x1, 185x5.
Standing Military Press: 95x7, 105x5, 115x3, 125x2, 135x1, 100x5.
Weighted Dips: 50x7, 7, 7, 7, 6.
French Press: 67.5x8, 67.5x6, 57.5x10, 57.5x10.
Single Cable Lateral Raise: 12x10, 10, 8, 8.
Decline Cable Flies: 20x10, 25x8, 20x10.
Push-ups: 10, 10, 10

Diet:
- Barilla Plus Rotini, Prego Marinara Sauce, (4) laughing cow squares, mushrooms.
- EAA's w/ Orange Juice
- Protein shake w/ Orange Juice

My workout today was good, really good, but I was really limited with how sore I was from Sunday. I was so accustomed to having two full days and change between workouts last semester that when I stopped performing the same workouts, my body wasn't used to it. Oh well, I just made Military Press the main exercise of today's workout instead of the bench press. I've also been limited on Bench days because I really tweaked my wrist performing heavy DB lateral raises. That's where the cable lateral raise and stuff has come in because I go light and it doesn't hurt compared to when I try doing upright rows or something of the sort and have to stop midset because my wrist is in agonizing pain. Hmm...

Diet's gone well today thus far, although after eating as much as I did last night, my bowels weren't happy all of this morning, I must've made about 5 or 6 trips to the bathroom..

Depending on how tomorrow goes, I'm pretty happy about this week and am glad to be back in the grind.

DE Squat/Deadlift
January 10th, 2008

Squat: 135x5, 185x4, 225x3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3.
SLDL: 135x10, 160x8, 185x6, 160x8, 135x10.
BW Pull-ups: 8, 8, 8, 8.
Cable Rows: 100x10, 10, 10, 10.
Face Pulls: 60x10, 10, 10.
Leg Extensions: 100x10, 10, 10, 10.
Pullovers: 30x12, 50x10, 50x10.
Cable Bicep Curls: 50x8, 45x9, 40x10.

Diet:
- (1) Kashi TLC bar
- (1) Powerbar Performance bar
- (1) glass of 2% organic milk
- EAA's w/ crystal light
- 1.5 scoops whey w/ 8 oz. of orange juice + water

Despite similar soreness to how I felt yesterday, I had a real solid workout today. I took some CEE that I had left over in my car trunk from back in my high school days last night to see if it would curb this being sore thing and allow my body to recover/get used to the routine I'm doing like it was a month ago. It probably did nothing, but mentally I thought I looked bigger than I did. I don't plan on continuing to use the CEE, only when I'm really sore and need it, same goes for the EAA's I've been taking the past two days. Everything was done really light today because I was still real sore from Monday, but it all went well. Squats were a breeze, again the rest thing has helped in that department, the SLDL's felt easy w/o straps which was nice, and then naturally doing 8 pull-ups, 100 pounds on the cable rows, etc. was very easy. I had until 1:25 today to get everything done because the rec center I went to today closes for two hours for some class throughout the week and usually I run right up until the bell, not today though, it was probably one of the more intense workouts I've had in a while and it showed when I completed everything I had written out in under an hour. I added some abs at the end, but couldn't really get in the groove, mainly because I had to poop all workout which I'm about to do now...

Fun weekend, back to the gym, then to the IU basketball game...

It'll be nice to be working out while the Colts are playing, not a soul will be in the joint.

We're excellent this year, easily a top 5 team talent wise, but as today showed, we can be "too young" at times.

good job, how high do you set the bar on the rack deads?

my friend who tends to be stupid when it comes to training claimed he rack deadlifted over 800 lbs. Once I saw him do them at 495, about a 5 inch ROM. His best deadlift w/ straps was like 435 though.

I'm pretty good about setting the racks at no higher than my knees, obviously depending on what squat rack I'm using. The one I used the other day I put on level three which was a little high than what I would use at home, but level 2 was at my ankles and level 4 was at my waist, so...

I haven't seen other people do rack deadlifts, but I have seen other people shrug using terrible form.

gotcha

since you DL in the 400's I can assume you aren't getting crazy with the height on the rack deads.

when do you plan on going for a DL 1RM?

This will be my routine going forward:

Week 1:

ME Squat/Dead - max out w/ squats
DE Squat/Dead - dynamic deadlift work

Week 2:

ME Squat/Dead - max out w/ deads
DE Squat/Dead - dynamic squat work

...and so on.

I did that towards the end of last semester and got some quality results from it. So to answer your question, next Monday! ha.

I don't really have any goal that I'm shooting for right now, ideally I'll be improving every week now that I'm back in the grind of things.

It certainly would be nice to pull 500 soon though...

I've pulled, I want to say 435 in the past, but recently I've been struggling to get by four plates.

I still have yesterdays workout to post, but I only have so much time this morning before classes, so I need to get going.

I'll post double action when I get back, and let me tell you, I had a good workout yesterday.

I try my best, keep in mind I'm using straps to pull such weight. It's good, but not good enough..

You won't believe what happened at the gym today...

So I lost my ID somehow, someway yesterday. I got in with it, I rented a lock with it, put it in my locker and when I came back after my workout, it and nothing else was gone. I figured it would show up in something, but it never did. So I used the IU id I have for my fake id to get into the srsc, got caught (I can get into bars with it, but I can't get into the rec center to lift, pathetic) and they didn't let me in, I had to plead with them to give it back to me (I said it was my friends and he's going to kill me) and luckily got it back. So then I run to the other gym, get in no problem, but it closes at 1:25 so I only had like 45 minutes to lift. Oh well, still a good workout.
