Yeah dude there are a lot of hot girls that climb. Plus it is super fun! I just got my lead card, so I can do the thing where your rope is below you and you clip in on the way up.

Glad - I've seen some articles say that cycles of strength and mass aren't the best way to do it, but fuck it I'm with you lol. I'm still seeing lots of progress
Tblock - I'm probably going to rock climb a couple times a month now. BTW my grip is still sore and it's 4 days after the climb lol.

Comments: Contemplated on taking another rest day today because my back is sore from trying handstands (hyperextending back I guess..) and maybe when I squatted 300 I dipped down to the hole too fast. Not entirely sure but it ached to squat. Press was very easy. Deadlift...despite my back hurting on squats, deads were fine. They were actually fairly easy. I'm thinking the back problem has something to do with spinal compression being that it hurt a little on squats and not on deads? Still not sure what caused it though. Chins..goddamn these blew. After a couple my forearms felt like they locked up from the pump in them. My grip still hasn't recovered entirely from rock climbing.

I would like to do a little rock climbing it looks fun and would probably act as active recovery for the back, arms and shoulders to get some blood in there on rest days, and as for forearms getting smoked by rock climbing well you can never have strong enough grip or big enough forearms lol

haha I'm hoping to blow up. I'll be dropping the fat after my volume routine..goal is to get down to at least 6-8% bf with my ECA stack 
No no, I use chalk. I get pissed if I forget it because I have ridiculously sweaty palms. Today I put chalk on every set and I switched to a hook grip from a dbl over on my final set. Fuck the alt grip lol.
EM - bro you should try it. It definitely is active recovery for your whole body but I wouldn't suggest deadlifting the day after..

Comments: Ok who the fuck wants to do 310 on the squat, 220 on bench and 180 on row? I don't care to load all the weights and it's just more badass to add another 45...it was only 5lbs more than what I was expecting to do lol. Squat and Bench were easier than expected, I know I'll be able to kill them for 3 next workout. Rows were actually pretty hard...but now that I think about it they went up just as fast as I could bench, I'm just used to being more explosive on rowing. My back is much better. The squatting motion doesn't hurt at all but unracking the bar and the compressing of my spine gives me a mild pain for a couple of seconds then it goes away. Once I get my goals, I'm not sure whether I want to switch to 5x1 or stick to 5x3 until I actually stall. It's probably better I stick to it until I stall but I'm just getting real excited to switch lol. I regressed a rep or so on arm work...I'm not disappointed though because I've been doing 50 pushups and 50 inverted rows every other day, I'm just glad it doesn't affect my bench and row. BTW this was a long fucking comment.

Fucked shit up in the gym today.
Day 1
Week 12
BW: 196 lbs morning
Squat
155 x 1x3
205 x 1x3
235 x 1x3
275 x 1x3
315 x 1x3 GOAL
Row

185 x 1x3 GOAL
Bench
115 x 1x3
145 x 1x3
175 x 1x3
205 x 1x3
225 x 1x3 GOAL
Abs
4 x Massacre
Comments: Well I skipped a week because I wanted to hit these goals so bad. Looks like I already reached half of them before February which I wasn't planning to kill until the 1st week of Feb. I don't consider them PR weights because of the weights I got when I was weighing 248, but I'm MUCH stronger pound for pound. Last rep on squats was fairly hard. As long as I concentrate on pushing as hard as possible I definitely still have some more progress on them with triples. I had to bench last which scared me because I didn't think I would get it since I would've been worn out too much to do them. Bench was actually a cake walk, I could probably get another 2-3 more which psyched me up. Rows were difficult, but again as long as I concentrate on pulling as hard as I can, I get them. I seem to progress really well by using triples..hopefully singles work even better
Next workout I'm looking at killing 155 press which should be cake and 385 dead (I think 375 would be more reasonable because deadlifting is now the hardest lift, but I already made my goals and I'm going to fuck shit up.)
EDIT: I couldn't get anybody to go with me that had a camera
