No, I mean tired as in "weak". Now, granted, that was in the past, so I'll try and incorperate a warmup set @ 135 today on the squats when I work out.
And thanks for the link bro : ).

Walk/Jog 10 minutes (.76 mile distance)
Squat: (Warmup 135 x 8) 170 @ 5/5/3 -Buried during last set. I paused for too long, had to roll it off my back. Reps overall felt pretty hard, but not like anything impossible. We'll see on Tues/Wed.
Standing BB PRess: 110 @ 5/5/4 MEH. That's all I can say about that. Fuck not getting one more rep.
Powercleans: 125 @ 5/5/
Just looked at the time, shit, I have baseball game in less than an hour..
MEH is how I felt about this workout.

Supposed to workout last night. Couldn't because had to help the inlaws.
Tonights workout:
Walk/jog 10 minutes (.77 distance)
Squat: 135 @ 5, 170 @ 5/5/5 - Last rep was agonizingly slow. I was just waiting for me to get stuck halfway and be in no-mans land. Knees were popping like crazy for the first time in ages, but they didn't give me any trouble/pain issues.
Flat Bench: 155 @ 5/5/4 Wrist was sore after the first set. Having trouble with my lateral flexability with it right now. Pain didn't bother me on the sets, just ran out of gas at 4 and 1/2. Soooo close.
DL: 215 @ 1 x 5. Grip still a huge issue. Did the first three with a traditional grip, then went ahead and did the last two with a over/under grip (Romanian?)
I know the poundage is still increasing, but man, I just hate it when I don't finish my reps for the day.

Todays Workout: (Was at work late last night, then had a cash game to go to... sad, I know)
Walk/Jog 10 minutes, .78 miles (6.0 mph top speed)
Squat: 135 @ 7, 175 @ 5/5/5 Nothing really of note here, last two reps were hard as balls.
Bench: 155 @ 5/5/ Just noticed I wasn't supposed to do bench today. Drrr. Quit after two sets.
Standing BB overhead press: 110 @ 5/5/4 ..... Failed again at this weight : /
Powercleans 125 @ 5/5/5 As always, my most difficult excercise of the day.
After today, 9 days left on SD(AMS clone). Wondering what I should do the next 9 days to get the most out of the rest of my cycle.

Side note 2: At the cash game last night, I had 4 kfc snakers and a large side of mash potatoes for dinner, and was STILL hungry.

Sometimes I can't stand the wife and kid.
Todays Workout:
Walk/Jog 10 min - .77 mile distance.
Squat: 135 @ 5, 180 @ 5/5/2 ... Excuse perhaps, but they wouldn't stop fucking arguing over bullshit while I was doing these, almost crushed myself @ 180 because I wasn't focused.
Bench: 155 @ 5/5/5. I don't know if it's my grip or what, but my right wrist keeps hurting me once I start benching. Upshot is I get to move up in weight next time. I like moving up in weight.
DL: 225 @ 5. Was. Fucking. Brutal. Grip issues plaguing me more than anything. Had to stop and reset each time, and was just drained on the last one, let the weights drop. Went normal grip x 2, then over under/under over/over under.
Dissapointed in the squats, as the first set felt fantastic, and the second set ok. Really thought I was going to power through that last set.
Post workout BW: 145.8.... really? I expected to still be 144 ish. Yay weightgain!

Apparently I'm hated by most of you.
Oh, and I just weighted myself at 147.0. Was after a protien shake though.

Last nights Workout: (Was at work late last night, did this, then went to a party)
Walk/Jog 10 minutes, .81 miles (6.5 mph top speed)
Squat: 135 @ 5, 180 @ 5/5/5 Nothing really of note here, Form wasn't great, used more back than I should have. I think 185 will be my drop down weight.
Standing Barbell Military Presses: 115 @ 5/5/5 Oh, I wasn't even supposed to go to this weight yet. LOL
Powercleans 130 @ 5/5/2 As always, my most difficult excercise of the day. Tried with everything I could to do that last set, just couldn't flip them over.

were here bro. one of my fav thing about going to the gym is its a good time to get everything out of ya that might be stressin ya out like work/school/family that might be buildin up
are you doing the 3x5? i think the powercleans are supposed to be 5x3.. which makes them alot more simple to do. i made the same mistake for like 2 months 5 straight would tire the shit out of me

thats a good point, 5 is a lot of reps for a set of cleans.
