yeah that's why i was wondering... and since you've been changing around the order of some exercises a bit. I think you should write it all down in the order you're going to do them before you do them (or just once so you can refer back to it) so you don't get mixed up like when you did deadlifts 3rd one workout

Well I added some stuff to the 5x5, you can call it clusterfuck but I don't care it's still working great. I have the order written out beforehand but sometimes I change it to give priority to one exercise, now I give deadlifts their own day (pretty much)

Post it up!

Well it is just this:
5x5 Calculator

With front squats added on 1st day, and on second day there is some shoulder work added, and I split military press and deadlift into 2 days. When I get home I'll look at what else I have added to the routine, but I can't remember it now.

My squatting strength is shooting through the roof, I could have done more reps easy on 275. Barefoot back squatting was fucking awesome, felt strong and way more stable.

Comments:
Horrible workout, stuck in that rut of 225x3 on bench today, although maybe I was just tired. I couldn't even do 155x1 today on mp, so I switched to light push press. I'm giving my bench one more week to move up then I am doing smolov jr again. BTW, I injured my back on push presses a little, so I took a couple days off.

How heavy is that heaviest db in the gym?

don't let fucking up 1 exercise fuck up the rest of your workout- Maybe take a longer break in between bench and military or do something in between them? It also seems like you ramped up to 155 rather fast (35 pounds). Maybe some more warmups/rest would help? Your bench doesn't seem to be lagging too far behind @ all man- look at your squat compared to your bench

 

[ExtraMile]

I don't think you ramped up too fast at all I would have done bar then maybe 95x5 then maybe 125x1-3 then gone straight into the 155 remember your already warm from benchpress

I know but my bench has been stuck at 225x3 for the longest time, then I just got 225x4 so I was pumped....but then now it's back down again...I honestly think I was just tired that day, I'm going for 230x3 last workout this week, I'll see how that goes.
