Shoulders and Bis.
Power cleans.
1x5 with 135
1x3 with 155
1x1 with 185
Attempted 205, didn't get it.
Tried another with 185, but my grip failed on the way up. The bar had no knurling at all. I should have grabbed a different one, but oh well. This was the 3rd or 4th time I've ever done these. I like them a lot, and want to incorporate them more often into my workout.
Military press.
5x5 with 165
DB militaries.
1x9, 1x8 with 70s.
Lat raises.
1x10, 1x8 with 25s.
BB Curls.
5x5 with 90.
DB Curls.
1x9, 1x8 with 45s.
Preachers.
1x12, 1x9 with 85.
Last week, 160 felt kinda shaky on the militaries, but 165 this week was cake. My strength seems to increasing very nicely on all my lifts. Time to eat.

he-man, thanks bro. I appreciate that.
Tonight: Chest and Tris. Some abs.
Incline.
5x5 with 190.
Flat DB press.
1x7 with 100s.
1x7 with 90s.
1x7 with 70s.
I really think it's amazing. After 2 intense sets, I was only able to push 7 reps out with a weight significantly lighter than the previous 2. Well, that plus my inclines too.
Stretching.
Close grip press.
5x5 with 135.
I decided to go light, but with very little rest in between, just for a slight change this week.
Dips.
1x10, 1x8, 1x5 with +80 lbs.
Stretch.
Weighted sit ups.
1x5 with +35.
3x5 with +25.
Weighted leg raises.
2x8 with +25.
1x20 with no weight.
