Too many squats...

Squats

5x3 with 245

It was supposed to be 5x5... the top of my legs right at the hip joint told me to fuck off...5x3 it is

Strict OHP

5x95

5x100

5x105

5x110

5x115

One of my goals is a 225 OHP.  I'd like to be there this winter or next spring.  I'm starting off very conservatively due to my right shoulder being prone to injury.  One thing that has helped a lot though is understanding how the shoulder works and applying that to my lifts.

I Missed depth on my last rep of my last set.  Felt good

5x175
5x185
5x190
5x195
5x200
I Failed my last rep of my last set.  Got it halfway up.  I think its because my workout was slightly rushed and my recovery time was cut short.

FTMFW!!

Today was a great day!!! No lifting whatsoever, but I made beer with my cousin Maria, Smoked up some bacon, and made some fucking phenomenal smoked chicken thighs...Life is good...

Wednesday's Squats and Deadlifts

I managed to get my 3 Squat days in this week and I feel like a badass...

Squats
5x bar
5x 135
5x5 with 235

Deadlifts
5x135
5x225
5x3 with 325

Squats felt good,  my knees shot forward on my last 3 reps of my last set.  Deadlifts didn't feel as good as they have been.  Seemed to have trouble activating my hamstrings.  Could be due to doing squats before deadlifts.

Monday...Active rest...

Sundays Workout

Great workout today.

Bench:

10x bar

10x 135

5x5 with 185

Strict OHP

10x bar

5x5 with 95

Failed last rep of the last set...just couldn't do it.  I would like to see my OHP go up substantially.  Still feel like a great workout...active rest for the next 2 days...and then...Squats.  If I have time I would really like to do deadlifts also.

This is what work felt like today...

Saturdays Workout

In the spirit of squatting 3x a week I warmed up with 5x5 with 135 on the bar.  legs are still sore from Thursday, so I concentrated on form and proper depth.

The Main workout:
Deadlifts...I fucking LOVE deadlifts...

5 reps 135
5 reps 225
5x3 with 315

Not but a few months ago 315 went up once...barely...405 is just around the corner.

Thursdays workout:

Good workout today.  Had to do it quickly but that made it feel even better.

Squats
Light warm up followed by some stretching
5x5 with 225

Got all of this done in just under 25 minutes.  Pushed pretty hard and it felt really good.  I'm going to be squatting 3x a week for a while.  Need to drop some fat before I can start eating for my goal....

Oh and this is what 15 pounds of bacon curing looks like...

New Kicks

Been wanting a set of these for a while.  My socks have been getting rallied in the gym lifting without shoes.  Not real Chucks...Faded Glory baby...also priced out materials for my new Power Rack from Lowes.  Fucking work getting in the way... can't start on it until next week...

Current PR's

Its official... I'm a pussy...  235lbs.  360 DL, 275 Squat, 225 Bench.  Ill keep PR's updated as they become less...pussyish...

70's Big

So Iv'e decided.  70's big it is.  Time for a power rack and some.....beer....Through the inspiration of a friend I've become interested in power lifting.  Anyone who knows me knows that I do everything overboard...This is my journey.
