No chinups today. I was getting razzed pretty hard by the powerlifters at my gym so I pulled a 405 deadlift. Decided that was enough for the day.

Weight is at 226lbs. I am so fucking broke I kinda afford to eat enough, but my strength is still rising so it's all good.

Had a ruff day at work and my endurance was nill at the gym for a couple reasons so I ended up going for some 1rm PR's because my strength felt good even though my endurance was nowhere to be found lol.

Barbell Full Squat-warmups to 225x1, 245x1, 275x1, 295x1
barbell PL style squat on 1" below parallel box-315x1, all squats raw

barbell bench-warmups to 225x1, 245x1, 275x1, 285x0

Felt pretty strong. Guy was touching the bar on the 275 and said he was giving me barely 5lbs of assistance. It flew up easily and he and I both agreed I could get 275 by myself. I had no help on the liftoff's either. 285 came down fine, but when I pushed up hard it ended up cruising towards my face lol. I held it for a second at my neck until the guy grabbed it for me. He did a good job spotting me as he grabbed it pretty quick. Just wish he hadn't touched teh 275, but I know I can bench that by myself raw. I think the 285 was a little misgroove action which is why it went sailing for my face instead of straight down.

Overall a good workout. Weighed about 228.5lbs on the scale before the workout, but I had a small pizza, glass of milk and pepsi sitting in my stomach lol.

I'm pretty sure my body is peaked out right now. Since it is monday I am gonna rest the rest of this week and next monday I will start the 5x5 routine all over again.

Unless I'm reading this wrong, you did chinups for only one set and you aren't sure if you got four or five reps...?

 

[ghettostudmuffin]

Why do you even care?

I did 4 full reps and the 5th was like 80% of the way up. All reps from a dead hang. Not bad considering I'm chinning 20lbs more bodyweight than I was like 10 weeks ago.

If my bodyfat was 10% I'd weigh 197 lean pounds and be chinning BW+35lbs.

Besides that, I'm not made for high reps. I could probably do a single with 50lbs right now.
