You have a good chest. At a glance, I would've guessed you could nail 315 for an easy triple, and I wasn't far off. 20 bucks says you can get it by the end of the month!
I really love your workouts, too. Simple, to-the-point, heavy basics. If I weren't doing so well on a DC-style routine again, I'd rip off what you're doing in a heartbeat.
Speaking of Dante, I'll also chime in to endorse his calf training method. I think you're already familiar with it, Nasty, but for those who aren't: it's one work set to failure, 10-12 reps, 5 second negatives, 15 seconds in the stretched position on each rep. Pure torture -- and far more effective than it could ever seem on paper. I never would've thought three such sets spread over a two week period could make that dramatic a difference in my calves (which, while very large even without training, tend to gain only about an inch before plateauing).

thx bro...yea, I think puttin up 315 is more of a mental block for me more than anything, I did it at a lower bodyweight in high school so there should be no reason I can't get it now with a better diet and training split
yea I'll throw in some of dante's concepts and see if I can make these fuckers grow

10/16 Lower
Back Squats: 45x15, 135x10, 225x3, 275x3, 315x3, 340x3, 365x3
Box Squat (13" or 14 inch block): 365x3, 405x2
Back Squat Warm Down: 225x7, 225x7
Romanian Deadlifts (off 4" step): 135x5, 225x5, 315x5, 335x5, 345x5
-back home in cleveland for fall break, got a lift in at my home gym. Regular squats felt pretty good, but the box squats felt heavy as hell for some reason. Stopped them after 405, the 405 didn't even feel that heavy on my back, but I just had no drive off the block today, almost got stapled like a bitch on the 2nd rep, but grinded it out. Hate making excuses but maybe because of the different blocks at home and back at school. Back to Nashville tomorrow night.
