I should have known something was up at the gym yesterday I was feeling like throwing up all session. I don't know how I did what I did yesterday. I have a wicked stomach virus or something I never ever get sick but today I am I had Boston pizza wings and pizza a few nights ago but I don't think that's what did it. It's my last day off work too good thing I can just lay in bed watch movies all day.

I'm a little late on this log haha but I'm following it now. Great numbers man keep up the good work.

That REALLY sucks about the stomach virus. I got strep a few weeks ago. Still went to the gym everyday but it ruined my workouts :/ A stomach virus will take you out of the game. Hopefully it'll be gone fast since you are healthy and active.

Never to late bro the log is going forever so your just in time stomach is feeling a little better but damn how annoying

After wrestling season I wanted to get all my strength back so I downloaded the SL's iPhone app. I did the program for about a month or so but my strength went up like crazy! One o my favorite programs cause I love to do squats. The app only had me do 1set of DL's idk why. After that month my bench was 300lbs, squat 525lbs. I could never max on deadlifts though. Our teacher wouldn't let us go over 225lbs.
