Great eating xblitz! How quickly is your weight changing?

 

[xblitz44x]

Well I went from 195-220'ish fairly quickly but then went on vacation. Now I'm around 222-223.

Workout - Monday, May 8th​

Stiff-Leg Deadlift:
135x5
205x5
235x5
285x5
345x5

Box Squat:
135x5

225x5
225x5
225x5
225x5

*225 was a good working weight. I could fire off the box but it wasn't easy either. By the 4th set, the last 2 reps were flat due to exhaustion. I'm going to go for 235 for 4 sets next week and try to maintain/increase bar speed.

Calf Raise:
3 plates x5
4 plates x5
5 plates x5
6 plates x3

I felt great for this workout. It was one of those days where I felt like I couuld have done even more. I was excited about tomorrow's workout before I even left the gym tonight. I can feel my strength going up and see a noticable difference in size when I look in the mirror.

After the workout I skipped out on the tuna sandwich and got Wendy's instead: a spicy chicken sandwich and a plain baked potato with a quart of milk

Nice straight legging. Great to see your progress, this is one of the journals I read so that I don't get the urge to fuck around.

After squats and pulls, forget tuna fish, I'm the same way , lol....Wendy's Spicy chicken sandwiches are badass.

Are you pulling your SLDL's from the floor?

 

[xblitz44x]

So you're pretty much playing this by ear, right? Do you have specific goals for the upcoming weeks?

I have everything written down and scheduled for the next 9 weeks from exercises to weights to reps. I'm actually not playing anything by ear unless I get stuck with a weight.

I'm into week 2. By the end of week 4 (end of volume phase) I need to: squat 365x5 ATF, Bench 295x5, Dead 455x5. Deload for a week, then onto 3 rep intensity phase. By the end I want 550x3 on deads, 415x3 squats.

Edit: And I'm confused. I thought you asked me if I'm playing this by ear. My mistake.

I am pulling the SLDL from the floor.

LoL - I thought I was in BiggT's journal for some reason and you beat me to the question before I edited it

Glad I did it though because now we can hold you accountable

Coming from a dude like you, that's inspiring.

Nice eating Blitz. I'm going to have to bookmark this for my diet.
