Cable Curls - 1x140x8, 1x150x8, 1x160x8
Tricep Pushdowns - 3x190x8

Man... Tough tough day... I did it to myself tho so I can't blame anyone but I was slightly hung over still from last night. I am pretty good about not getting drunk the night before I lift so this is just a reminder for myself not to. It started off nice but when I got to the heavy set of squats 305x3 I wasn't ready physically or mentally. I did 3 reps but I don't count them because they were partial barely reaching 75 degrees. So I took about five minutes to catch my breath and re-attempted at 300x3(which is still a five pound increase) from last week. I got those much smoother and complete. After we finished the squats, that's when I felt the worst. Felt really hot but was sweating cold. Felt sick... I wont do it again. Finished out the rows, curls, and tricep pushdowns. I'm just glad that I finished it out. Week 4 Day 1 will be much better because I WON'T let that happen again.

lesson learned, you still threw around some nice numbers today. Your bench is goin up too quick!! When my shoulder is healthy i'll try to give you a little competition. Good job today though, way to push through the sick feeling, it's tough to do... Eat good tomorrow, so we can hit day 1 hard!

Week 4 Day 1

Flats - 140x5, 170x5, 200x5, 230x5, 260x5
Squats - 160x5, 195x5, 230x5, 265x5, 300x5
Pendlay Rows - 120x5, 140x5, 160x5, 180x5, 200x5, 205x5
Pullups - 1x12 Underhand, 1x8 Overhand, 1x8 Underhand

Overall, a much more solid workout than Day 3 of Week 3. Felt much much better by this day. Flats are still going very smooth and easy so pretty soon I'll have 2 plates and a quarter on each side for 5. I WAS concerned for squats on my top set but I actually BANGED em out nice and easy. (thanks to not being hungover!) Did the extra top set of Rows because the 200x5 was fairly easy so I made an extra jump today. Am looking forward to Day 2 Week 4 for Deads at 325x5! BE READY ZGZAZ!

Rican the more advanced I get the less I can drink
(not that I ever was fan)
It is nice to unwind at times and one may actually benifit from having a drink occasionally.
Now I reserve it for special occasions or for a date with a classy woman.( wine)

I've found the same thing happening for myself Omega. It's not easy to party like I used too! I've had lots of friends come into town recently from overseas and that has made it a little easier to do so. (we all went to middle and high school) but it won't happen again. So no worries about it! Like you said, only ONCE in a while.

Week 4 Day 2

Inclines - 155x5, 180x5, 205x5, 230x4, 230x4
Speed Squats - 160x5, 195x5, 230x5, 230x5
Deads - 165x5, 205x5, 245x5, 285x5, 325x5
Barbell Shrugs - 3x8x245
DB Shoulder Press - 3x8x90

Overall, a very solid workout. My two top sets of inclines weren't completed so I must repeat it next week. For some reason, my left shoulder felt very tight and felt like there was some pressure in there. I got 4 and 1/2 reps both times, but I don't count half reps. There was no pain whatsoever, just felt tight and pressure. Everything else was nice! Love to be Deadlifting 325+ from here on out! Getting into the big boy weights! Onto day 3...

Don't even worry about the inclines, they'll go up nice and smooth next week. We'll stretch the shoulders for longer, and make sure you don't have the same problem. Good job on your deads, looked real solid. Aright brotha, see you tomorrow for day 3, and go Seahawks!

Week 5 Day 1

Flats - 145x5, 175x5, 205x5, 235x5, 265x5
Squats - 165x5, 200x5, 235x5, 270x5, 305x5
Rows - 130x5, 150x5, 170x5, 190x5, 210x5
Underhand Pullups - 1x12, 1x10
Cable Crossovers - 1x8x90, 1x8x100, 1x8x110

This workout went very well even tho I had to go solo. My training partner is a little under the weather and has been having a fever. I was able to blast through all my lifts without a spotter or any help whatsoever. The Cable Crossovers I decided to add was just to get a nice, tight pump at the end of the session in my chest. SOLID workout solo.

Week 5 Day 2

Inclines - 155x5, 180x5, 205x5, 230x5
Speed Squats - 165x5, 200x5, 235x5, 235x5
Deads - 175x5, 215x5, 255x5, 295x5, 335x1
Barbell Shrugs - 3x8x245
DB Shoulder Press - 3x8x90

This workout was good but also tough. I was happy to get the inclines at 230x5 with ease and powered through them. BUT after that, I started feeling weak and shaky. And that's my own fault because I hadn't eaten a solid meal since 830am and i went to lift at 3pm. I had a weight gainer shake at about 1130am and that was it by the time i got to the gym. I still got my speed squats and first four sets of deads but by the time i got to the fifth one, i was feeling very weak and my stomach was GRUMBLIN'... So I screwed myself by not eating anything up to that point. So next Day 2 i WILL hit 335 for my 5 reps. I won't make that same mistake again.
