great looking number so on the leg workout. those front squats are a bitch, but you have to like them. my biceps always cramp when i get to the heavy weights. and you will hit the bench better next time. still looks like an awsome workout.
Thanks OH. front squats are killer for me to, my arms usually fail way before my legs. Do you do ur fronts Olympic or body builder style? I think next chest day I'm gunna throw in some decline stuff and see what happens.

bw-168- Ive been eating my ass off for 2 weeks

Rack pulls are the shit, I could feel it in my lower back instantly. I couldn't get a grip past 225. I can see why people use straps now, I might get a pair my self. The incline shrugs were weired, there wasn't to much ROM with them. I'm hoping to hit 170 bw this week.

I love rack pulls! They are the shit nothing nails your back and traps like em and nothing is as fun for your lower body except leg press.

I kept my RI to a strict 30sec, it really kicked my ass. couldn't believe my weight went up so much. Ive been eating 5-6 huge meals a day for over 2 weeks, 3 out of 6 of my meals are not perfect (subway, chipoltte, Boston market, kfc, ect). I looked in the mirror and i can see Ive lost some of my lean. I'm gunna go on a strict cut some time in march.

I use these:
Weightlifting and straps, mens workout gloves, weightlifting gear, weightlifting exercises
LOT easier than trying to use regular straps...plus literally only takes a couple seconds to 'strap' in to a DB...

Don't you get that choking sensation? i keep my arms crosseed, high..and the bar seems to rest against my throat...so I dont' go over 135...just use higher reps.

Dam dude....30 sec. RI'S? insane! I tied 1 minute rests..and that keeps me going....

I didn't like rack pulls...I'm 5'9", ended up standing on 3, 45 lb plates to get my knees over the bar, so I some what of a range of motion. I think I just prefer regular deads.

hows the taste and mixability of the protein? I haven't heard of that brand before - how's the cost compare to others?
