Pretty good little BS day today. Started with a rear delt warmup to make sure I wouldn't pop anything. Got a decent pump. Squat technique felt great, good girl bad girl machine seems to have fixed a lot of my squat technique problems. Bench was ok but my back was popping off the bench because I was trying to do it speed style. Deads were ok, didn't have my socks but still banged em out. Hit some rear delts, got out really early, then went for another run. Gotta make sure I don't get a heart attack from all the calorie dense foods I've been eating. Had a really late night last night, my friend wanted to party cause it's probably his last chance this year so I ended up staying up till 5 AM. So I got pretty much no sleep, gonna knock myself out tonight. "Meet" on Saturday!

265x1
285x1-10 lb PR
300x0

Deadlift
495x1
525x1
545x1-40 lb PR

Pretty good day today. My bench was a little disappointing, I wanted 300, but I exceeded my goals for both squat and deadlift by 20 lbs. 405 squat felt so easy that I had to double it. 425 went up decently but I didn't want to hit failure and compromise my deadlift. Oddly enough my bench compromised my deadlift, on 300 my hamstrings and glutes cramped like a mofo and I missed the lift. 285 was all right though, video it may look like my ass came off the bench but it didn't. Also looks like 275. Just a bad camera angle all around. No biggie you all know I'm honest, if I was gonna lie I'd say that was 300 :P. Deads, 495 felt heavy, 525 felt light, 545 felt lighter than 495 but still heavy. Overall they went well though, future looks bright for my lower body. Upper body, not so much haha. But I'll still bench 300 one day. Maybe when I do the pendelton meet this winter (hopefully). Here are all the videos:

405 squat: Squat 405x2 - YouTube
425 squat: 425 squat - YouTube
285 bench: 285 bench - YouTube
300 bench: 300 bench fail - YouTube
525 deadlift: 525 deadlift - YouTube
545 deadlift: 545 deadlift - YouTube
1003 deadlift (wait that's not me!): There is no reason to be alive if you can't do deadlift. - YouTube

That last video of my good friend Jon Pall is the last video I watched to psych myself up before popping half an ephedrine, half a scoop of ergopump, and half a scoop of scivation bcaas. Plus a spoon of creatine. Overall happy with today, totalled 1255 (probably could have paused that 285 on bench but let's just call this a touch n go meet). Looking forward to blasting some PRs in the future, and hitting 495/315/585 in competition in January. That's my new goal!
 
Going to hit some back today, just in the little dorm gym so nothing worth logging. Then hitting chest at the real gym tomorrow. Gonna mess around a bit this week.
 
Thanks man!

Pretty good day today, just decided to do some bodybuilding stuff with my bodybuilder friend. Reverse grip bench felt surprisingly a lot in chest, a lot in tris too, gonna start trying to incorporate this. Only shitty part is it hurts my wrists a bit. So I'll start with 165 for 3x15 or something and work up from there, try to get as heavy as I can without messing up my wrists. Declines were good, did some assisted reps on the last 2 sets (1 assisted on 2nd set, 4 assisted on last). Inclines were all right until my shoulder acted up, was doing it tension style so I could barely use any weight. Chest got really pumped though. Was hitting rear delts between sets of pretty much everything, so my shoulders wouldn't get fucked up more than they had to. Chest is super sore right now, tris too a little, tried to take front delt out of everything. Traps are fairly sore too from yesterday and today. Hopefully my side and rear delts will be sore tomorrow.

Decent day today. First time in the gym in a while, new gym too, in some ways it's good and in others it's bad. Squats were good but I set the bar unevenly on my traps on the 10 set so it was a little lopsided. 365 was good though. I wasn't buttwinking but for some reason my back was killing me after squats. Maybe because of fairly short rest periods. Plus this is my first time training after not eating carbs for 12 hours in a while. So I was really tired and sluggish. Managed to push bench but by the time I got to rows I was tired as hell. Pushed through some legs then ran out of time/energy once I got to upper body. Was a little disappointed because I was training with 2 good friends of mine who don't go to the gym much. I used to work out with them at school but I've since become much more intense, especially training alone this past 6 months, so I was at a completely different level from them not just physically but mentally as well. Brought down my intensity quite a bit and pissed me off. But whatever. They only wanna train 4 days a week and I'm gonna be training 6 so I'm going to put my hardest 2 days (heavy squats and deads) on days they aren't lifting. Besides, I do need a spot on bench. Should work out pretty well. Also in the past they've flaked on me training a few times just because it's not a very high priority in their lives, so I'll see it as a positive if they do that I can be more intense. Nothing against them but in the gym I do need somebody a little more intense if I'm going to be training with somebody.

Decent day in the gym today, great day overall. Was really busy all day, had my first class at my community college this summer. Being around a lot of hot girls (but not nearly as many as UCSB) helped make me feel high test again. Haven't seen more than 1-2 hot girls a day since Thursday. Well I guess at the gym on Saturday, but I was too focused on lifting. After class we went to the gym, ran into a lot of people I know from high school (and saw more hot girls!) there which was kind of distracting but I still managed to get a good workout. Would have been better in a garage dungeon gym but the world isn't perfect.

OHP was all right, wasn't trying to go heavy so this was just about right, worked on technique a bit. Side raises were good, dips, bad idea to do them before another shoulder movement because my front delts got super pumped which fucked everything else up. I'm thinking of putting OHP and all other front delt heavy movements at the end of my shoulder day until my rear and side delts catch up, then putting it at the beginning again and shooting my lift waaaayyyy up. I'll start with 5x5x115 at the end of my next shoulder day and work up from there. Triceps went fairly well, they're nice and stiff and sore right now especially in the long head which almost never happens. Hammer curls were good my biceps are really sore (in fact my right bicep just almost cramped when I flexed it just now). Forearms not so much but they definitely got worked hard-had a good pump/stiffness going in the gym. It'll just take some time before they get up to where everything else is (same with rear and side delts, which definitely got worked but aren't stiff/sore right now either). Side raise machine/shrugs were all right but I definitely can't train front delts before hand. My bodybuilder friend was noticing the same thing, you can hit side delts way better if you do it after rear delts and before front delts. Prioritizing.

Right after the gym we got burritos then as soon as I got home I had to go to kempo. I lost my cup so I was pretty nervous, and I did end up getting hit in the balls twice. Not super bad but definitely hurt. It's all right though, I had a great session. Over this last year I've grown a lot in the sense that I have learned to get out of my own head more and live in the moment, and how to be less stiff/formal and less concerned with walking on eggshells trying not to offend people. Going to kempo today was great because I could just completely be immersed in what I was doing, and I was able to do a great job even though I'm rusty. I impressed myself, and I felt on top of the world afterwards. Super high test!!!

So overall, today was a great day!

Pretty good day today. Went nice and heavy on squats even though my hammies were still sore. Got a sweet little 20 lb PR on squats. Clavicles aren't used to front squatting right now so I just kept it light and did my fronts beltless. Hammies were good, same with good girl bad girl machine. Seated calf machine sucks at this gym but I still managed to get them pumped and sore. Abs were all right nothing too intense, I'm doing sit ups at kempo again but I just want to get into the habit of training abs at the gym. Can't powerlift with a weak core!

Ran into some homies from way back at the gym today. I'm starting to feel at home again, Thursday I was so depressed to leave my "family" at UCSB, I was so close with everyone and everything there, but San Diego is starting to feel like home again. Lifting has been going well, I already look bigger so I"m looking forward to a good summer of training!
