Week 11 - Day 1 - Dec 5th -

Squats - 5x5 – 140x5, 170x5, 200x5, 230x5, 260x5
Flat Bench - 5x5 - 150x5, 175x5, 200x5, 225x5, 250x5
Rows - 5x5 - 115x5, 130x5, 150x5, 170x5, 190x5
Underhand/Overhand Grip Pullups - 3x8xbodyweight

A terrible workout today, not because the weights were too heavy, but because I felt like throwing up from the very first set until the last. I wanted to quit after my 1st set of squats, but pushed through and threw up in my mouth about 4 times, haha! Didn't want to quit and miss a whole workout. However, everything is still moving, don't feel like I'll get stuck for another few weeks on anything. Btw, every lift still a PR from here out.

All PR's! Shit, that's nice work and you have already done what most dream. Anyone that's pukes in there mouth is gold in my book. I've done that before. Good times...

hahaha! I'm not a big fan of the whole puking in my own mouth thing, but glad you approve! And thank you for the compliment, I appreciate it very much!

Week 11 - Day 2 - Dec 7th -

Squat - 4x5 - 140x5, 170x5, 200x5, 200x5
Inclines - 4x5 - 140x5, 165x5, 190x5, 215x5
Deadlift - 4x5 - 170x5, 210x5, 250x5, 285x5, 290x5
Barbell Shrugs - 1x135x8, 1x185x8, 1x225x8

Felt great today, was a little worried about the inclines, but honestly they were easier than my last week at 210x5, I can't wait for 2 plates on inclines for a set of 5, thats gonna be a great day for me.
I focused on form today for my deads, as I feel it's been a little off (my legs fully extending very early in the lift) and felt great for all sets.
I've also subbed barbell shrugs for the dumbell shoulder presses as my right shoulder has been hurting for a little bit, and my traps have been lacking a bit, so it felt like a good fit. Also to help my grip work for deads, since I don't use straps.

On to day 3....

ZgzaZ how old are you? I'm interested because I'd like to know what sort of weight I should be pushing at what age.

Cheers

damn, dorian is ridiculous looking...thanks for throwing that into my log and making me feel like a midget again.

Dave, I'm 22. Age is probably the least involving factor for lifts though, so I wouldn't base anything off of that.

Week 11 Day 3 - Dec 10th -

Squats - 4x5 - 140x5, 170x5, 200x5, 230x5
1x3 – 265x3, 270x3
1x8 - 200x8
Flats 4x5 - 150x5, 175x5, 200x5, 225x5
1x3 - 255x3
1x8 - 200x8
Rows 4x5 - 115x5, 130x5, 150x5, 170x5
1x3 - 195x3
1x8 - 150x8
Barbell Curls - 3x8 – ez-curl + 65lbs
Tricep Pushdowns - 3x10 - 150lb straight bar

A great workout for me, all new PR's in every lift again. The pushdowns are pissing me off, because my current gym's top weight on the cables is 150lbs, so I just did 10 reps instead of 8 on these, will be able to increase next week when I move back home and start at another gym. Everything felt great though, another 10lb increase on squats, and the other lifts moving solid at 5lbs.

You can add weight to most of those silly cables machines by getting a extra pin and some plates. Stick the extra pin in the back of the stack about half way down holding the extra plate(s) with the pin. saavy???

Makes sense, never thought about that, although my next day 3 will be at another gym that has a higher amount. But thanks for the advice, I appreciate the help. Btw, I'm thinking about having a procedure to make my 4 inches shorter so I can join the club, will that work? Or does it only apply to naturally shorter individuals?
