Hmm, maybe this explains why I've become so addicted to chalking before my lifts...and why that guy charged me $80 a gram for it.

Al - back in the old days.......good times and lot's of "chalk"

R.I.P J.N.

WEEK 9 DAY 1

...a day late, was completly out of it mentally, had no friggin' clue how it was going to go... Intake was...uhh.... well i was getting stuff in, wasn't the best of choices at times...tried to get my protein in.

After 5th Set Time Check: 4:00pm


ATF Squat
Bar x 8, 100x5, 140x5, 160x2, 195x5, 240x5, 265x5 (PR!)

205x3 (PR!)
205x3 (PR!)

WOW! ... i was shocked! lol... i took my time...even used a little chalk to keep my hands dry

90* Row
Barx5, 100x5, 120x5, 140x5, 170x5, 205x5 (rep PR)


Barbell Shrugs
up to around 380x4 ... probably 20 or so reps... i just winged it..
It's VERY sad that 380 for shrug weight feels so heavy to me now I used to load on 5 plates no problem... ugh

I assume it's from not doing them for awhile or all the other work previously.

Great workout, considering.

End time: 5:00pm

weight: 218.5 lbs tonight
