lol, you're still going?!

wow.

Many more weeks of injury free training and PR wishes to ya... that's pretty damn sweet, keep doin' what your doin'.

I gotcha, thanks for the support also! My body is starting to wear down, been hitting them hard for a while, but i'm gonna ride it till the wheels fall off..

Lifting looks great. I bet you and Ricanx99 are a site in the gym!

Don't mind fuck yourself buddy. At this point, if anything, you may be wearing down mentally from the scarier poundages. I don't think you were expecting the squat numbers...not even close right...some nonsense about a needed deload way before now...Just keep pushing it and eating your fucking spinach.

Just eat a lot and get plenty of rest. You only get to lift 3x per week so cherish the time. As they say, the journey is more important than the destination.

Here we come day 3..

 

[ZGzaZ]

Week 17 - Day 3 - January 20th -

Squats - 4x5 - 165x5, 200x5, 235x5, 270x5
1x3 - 310x3
1x8 - 235x8
Flats - 4x5 - 135x5, 155x5, 175x5, 195x5
1x3 - 240x3
1x8 - 185x8
Rows - 4x5 - 120x5, 145x5, 170x5, 195x5
1x3 - 225x3
1x8 - 170x8
Barbell Curls - 3x105x8
Tricep Pushdowns - 3x8x230lbs

Flats are now added back in, the shoulder felt fine today on them...took it a little easy doing 240x3 as my top set, so I'll have a month or so to work back closer to PR range, then start chasing ricanx99 and his 280x3+.... Everything else felt good, squats and rows...and I've noticed the carryover from my rows/deads to my curls, as I'm hitting 105x8 now.

Gonna get some good rest in the next 2 days, and bang out day 1 on Tuesday.

Yea buddy! Glad that you will be able to get flats back in the mix... 240 was easy for you but good to start slow and build up nice and strong over time. Soon you'll have 260 behind you and catch 300! I know I don't have to say this... but eat tons and you'll be good! And I wish everyone would look at your progress on curls with only doing them ONCE a week for 3 sets tops. Proof that heavy compounds will increase everything else! DO WORK!

Week 18 - Day 1 - Jan 23rd -

Squats - 5x5 – 150x5, 290x5, 230x5, 270x5, 310x5
Flats - 5x5 - 140x5, 165x5, 190x5, 215x5, 240x5
Rows - 5x5 - 125x5, 150x5, 175x5, 200x5, 225x5
Underhand Grip Pulldowns - 3x160x8

Pretty solid workout... re-added flats and they felt fine on the shoulder, so I'm very happy for that. Day 2's deads is going to be a challenge, but we do work, so they'll get done.

Word.


So is 315 next week? Excited or what?

On your bench I would go to a close grip it it were me. You loose a little poundage at first but it is a more preventative way to bench IMO.
