Missed a few updates...

Last leg workout was possibly the worst in 2 years. Only did one warmup set on squats with 135 then jumped to 315. Gym was cold as fuck. 315 felt more like 400, and on the 3rd rep my hamstring started spasming and went nuts. Ruoned the rest of the training session. Finished with some light leg presses and leg extensions rather than leave pissed off.

Then tuesday was chest and triceps, focus on slow controlled reps to switch things up a bit, inclused floor presses, dips and shoulder presses in 8-12 rep range.

This morning was deadlift day:

Sumo Deadlift

365x0

Hack Slides (total weight plus machine weight)
90x10
140x10
160x10
180x10

And yes I realize my training seems all over the place...I don't follow a program. I go with different training principles and lifts and try to switch things up constantly. If I stop getting stronger, I might look into a proven program....until then organized chaos will do.
