Let's see if those goals were indeed reasonable ...

Alright, I'm gonna take a break from the 5x5 for a while and try a different routine, just to change it up some. I love the 5x5. It has worked wonders with my strength ...

Anywho, this week, just to boost my ego a little, I'm gonna test 4 max lifts. After that, I'm gonna take a week off to let the CNS recuperate, and then I'm gonna give a new routine a try.

Tonight: Military press.
Tues: Squat.
Thurs: Bench.
Fri: Deadlift.

I had posted on B Fold's thread about short term goals what I wanted these lifts to be. Let's hope for the best.

Alrighty. About 10 weeks ago, I could military press 185 for one. Tonight, I shattered my goal of 200 with a 230 press for a 1RM. That also is a new PR. I am damn happy.

gman, CCJ, thriller ... thanks a lot guys. I appreciate it a lot.



Okay, change of plans. I just was informed that I have a free ticket to the Phillies/Braves game tomorrow night with amazing seats, so I'm just gonna move my squat attempt to next Tuesday. Progress will be posted.

Oh, Bones and Thai, the encouragement is also appreciated a lot. Thanks brolies.
